A Bangladeshi cattle lifter was killed in a Border Security Force (BSF) firing on Saturday.
The incident occurred close to the border fencing at Yakubnagar in North Tripura.
BSF and state police officials including SP North Tripura district Bhanupada Chakrabory inspected the incident spot.
BSF DIG Rajeev Dua said that a BSF trooper had opened fire from a non-lethal pump actiongun in self-defense as the group of smugglers tried to attack with a lethal weapon as troopers challenged their attempt to cut border fencing to smuggle stolen cattle herd.
The dead body identified as Bappa Mia from Botole village will be handed over to Bangladesh authorities, on a proper receipt, after observing the necessary legal formalities.
Since August 5, the Petrapole border between India and Bangladesh has been under tight security with reduced movement of people and goods. The increased measures are in response to ongoing unrest in Bangladesh. Despite the overall decline in trade, the border has facilitated the entry of several Bangladeshis into India for medical treatment. The unrest has led to a near-total halt in trade, impacting traders significantly. Border Security Force (BSF) Director General DS Chaudhary has visited the site, and on Tuesday, some Bangladeshis and Indians stranded in each other's countries managed to return home.

In a swift response to the escalating unrest in Bangladesh, Meghalaya has imposed a night curfew along its international border, effective immediately from 6 pm to 6 am daily. This measure restricts movement within a 200-meter zone of the Indian side of the border to address potential security threats. With nine battalions of the Border Security Force (BSF) already deployed, the state government is prepared to send additional forces if necessary. Deputy Chief Minister Prestone Tynsong announced the curfew following a high-level meeting with key officials, including the DIG BSF and the Director General of Police. Covering a 444 km stretch of the border, the curfew reflects the state’s commitment to maintaining security and stability amid the turmoil across the border.

Dramatic scenes unfolded in Dhaka as hundreds of student protesters and political activists armed with bamboo sticks, iron rods, and pipes launched a violent assault on supporters of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The violence escalated as protesters torched the Bangabandhu Memorial Museum, once the home of assassinated leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, during an uprising that has left the city in turmoil. With Hasina now in exile, the anniversary of Rahman's death has become a flashpoint for unrest, and the interim government led by Muhammad Yunus has canceled the national mourning day. Journalists were threatened, and chaos reigned as the protesters clashed with Hasina's supporters. Watch now to understand the full scale of the crisis gripping Bangladesh!
