India withdraws 11 after Bangladesh border guards resist push-in attempt

The Indian Border Security Force (BSF) withdrew 11 individuals from the Darshana border in Chuadanga after facing strong resistance from the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) during an alleged push-in attempt.

Lt Col Nazmul Hasan, commanding officer of the BGB-6 Battalion, stated that the individuals were removed from the zero line early Monday morning. According to BGB officials and local witnesses, BSF personnel gathered the 11 people on the Indian side near the Darshana International Check Post early Sunday and attempted to force them into Bangladesh.

Upon receiving information about the incident, BGB personnel quickly mobilized and took up positions along the border. Local villagers also joined the BGB, enhancing vigilance in the area. Faced with the firm stance and coordinated response of the BGB and local community, the BSF retreated from their push-in attempt.

The 11 individuals remained near the zero line for some time before being taken away from the border area by the BSF early Monday. No further details regarding the identities or nationalities of these individuals were immediately available.
