A delegation of senior Indian officials left for Bangladesh on Wednesday to attend a meeting on border management, slated for Thursday. District Magistrates and Superintendents of Police of two districts in south Tripura have entered Bangladesh through Belonia border.
Border management, infiltration and fencing will be the main focus of Thursday’s meeting at port city Chittagong. Other talking points include border crimes such as smuggling and managing of a border haat (market) located at Srinagar in Sabroom. Sabroom has proximity with Chittagong sea port which India considers vital for transshipment of essential commodities to landlocked northeastern region.
