Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) prevented another push-in attempt of an Indian citizen at the Sappabari border in Patgram upazila of Lalmonirhat on Saturday around noon. The individual targeted in the incident is currently located about 50 yards inside Indian territory from the zero line.
According to BGB sources, members of India’s 156 BSF Battalion from the Dawarikamar camp tried to push one Indian national across the border. When a BGB patrol team intervened, the Indian Border Security Force personnel retreated and took the individual back inside India. Kalirhat BOP camp commander Nayeb Subedar Abdul Majed confirmed that BGB strongly protested the attempt and successfully prevented the push-in.
The incident highlights ongoing vigilance by BGB along the Bangladesh-India border in Lalmonirhat, where similar attempts have occurred in the past, prompting continued coordination and monitoring between the two border forces.
