The India-Bangladesh border issue is longstanding. Although the Government of India has been working for a long time to resolve this issue, it has only been partially effective.
A special conference at the Director General level will be held on several important issues, including strengthening security at the border, preventing illegal infiltration, and taking appropriate action against Indian Insurgent Groups (IIG) operating from Bangladesh territory. The conference will be held in the country’s capital, New Delhi, from June 8-11. This is the 57th Director General-level Border Coordination Conference.
The Indian delegation will be led by BSF Director General Praveen Kumar, while the Bangladesh delegation will be led by BGB Director General Major General Mohammad Ashrafuzzaman Siddiqui.
An official said that the issue of Bangladeshi citizens crossing the barbed wire fence will be discussed in detail at the meeting.
