Shillong, Feb 25: Refusing to bat an eyelid over the siege of BDR headquarter in Dhaka, India on Wednesday said it was an internal affair of Bangladesh.
“India doesn’t comment on the affairs of its neighbours,” India’s External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee told reporters here after Bangladesh agreed to all rebel demands.
He said India’s border along Bangladesh is safe and secure.
Border Security Force went on a high alert along the Indo-Bangladesh border in the Northeast in the wake of Tuesday’s rebellion in the Bangladesh Rifles in the neighbouring country.
In Shillong, BSF Director General ML Kumawat discussed
the situation with border force Inspector General (Assam and
Meghalaya Frontier) Prithviraj.
Constant vigil is being maintained along the border and
the development in the neighbouring country is being closely
monitored, BSF sources said.
The sources, however, said there has been no additional
deployment of forces along the border.
In Tripura, a close vigil was being maintained along the
856 km border with Bangladesh.
