BSF, BGB strengthen bonds with Eid celebrations on border
The Border Security Force (BSF) and the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) are making concerted efforts to foster stronger ties and ensure peace along the India-Bangladesh border.
Acting on a tip-off, the Border Security Force apprehended three members of Bangladeshi family last night from Dharahat Border Outpost in Cooch Behar. They have been identified as Jadab Chadra Sarkar, his wife and daughter.
According to the BSF, the family is a resident of Titas police station in the Cumilla district of Bangladesh. The BSF apprehended them while trying to cross the Indo-Bangladesh border illegally through the unfenced patches of Dhagram Angarpota Enclaves. The motive behind their act was to earn a living across the border.
