Stressing that there was an overwhelming need to reduce the number of deaths in cross-border firing during intrusion along the Indo-Bangla border, the Border Security Force (BSF) and the Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) agreed to create awareness among residents along both sides of the border. The decision was taken during a high-level meeting in Dhaka between the BSF and BDR held from July 11-14, Director General (BSF) M L Kumawat said on Tuesday after returning from Dhaka. While Kumawat led the BSF delegation, the BDR delegation was led by Major General Moinul Islam. The forces will ask the residents not to venture near the border areas at night. “This will help in reducing killings of innocent villagers along the border. According to our statistics, 85 per cent people were killed at night,” Kumawat said. He said the BSF has identified 46 places where there is no fencing and stressed on immediate fencing in the area to prevent border-related crimes.
