BDR gets reinforcements
along Myanmar border
Bangladesh Rifles with further reinforcements have been kept on high alert along the southeast frontiers amid reports of build-up of troops and barbed-wire fencing in Myanmars side, security officials said.
Over 3,000 border guards were deployed to reinforce BDR positions at Coxs Bazar-Teknaf fronts to stand guard along the 271-kilometre frontiers with Myanmar which reportedly began to erect barbed-wire fences inside its territories under military cover.
Bangladesh deployed army contingents inside its territories 5 kilometres off the zero line to back up the border guards in the wake of border standoff.
We deployed soldiers to strengthen our position there We just have kept ourselves prepared and on alert to face any eventuality along the frontiers, said director (operation) of Armed Forces Division Brigadier General Abidus Samad.
However, our role is purely defensive, he said.
BDR set up a control room at Coxs Bazar to closely monitor the border situation, an official of the para-military force said.
BDR authorities on Friday offered to hold a sector commander-level talk with Myanmar border guards Nasaka to resolve the standoff and defuse the tension.
Chittagong sector commander of BDR Col Didarul Alam Chowdhury wrote to his Myanmar counterpart proposing border talks, the official said adding that another proposal for border talks at director general level had been sent a week ago.
But Myanmar border guard was yet to respond, the BDR official said.
Meanwhile, BDR registered a protest to Nasaka against the movement of Myanmar army overseeing the fencing works there.
The army cannot move within 5-kilometre range from the zero line as per border rules, he added.
Security officials said Myanmar border guards frequently pushed Rohingya people into Bangladesh territories through different border points.

Thanks for the post. But, finally how the Rajstan misunderstanding was solved between India and Pakistan? I think,　Pakistan was given prior notice by India that India was going to engage in military exercise. But, even then the Pakistani generals had certainly moved a few divisions to their own desert in Sindh.
Similar things happened in BD/India area when, after 1/11, Gen. Moeen ordered about 80,000 troops including BDR out of cantonment and moved them to different Zilla Headquarters. India immediatelty moved three or four divisions of its troops from Rajstan to somewhere in west Bengal.
Also, immediately after the Pilkhan mutiny, Indian army and airforce near BD border were kept in alert condition, although some BD people, with little knowledge in military strategy, started shouting of imminent Indian interference.
In reality, the generals of any country would do similar things to prepare for ANY eventuality. And the generals do not wait for an executive order to move troops in a situation like this.

It is a normal precaution. Armies take time to mobilise. Often the medium of transportation used by the Army to mobilise (rail, road and air) is also used by the general public and any disproportionate use of this infrastructure by the Army causes dislocation and panic which is unacceptable except during war. Air Forces are far more flexible due to the long range and speed of a/c, but large scale mobilisation often imply involvement of civil avation resources. Therefore these movements are staggered and planned well in advance. Govts do warn each other of forthcoming exercises, Army to Army links at level of DGMO also exist.

I thought that you were a Bengali-Nationalist-Mullah but lately found out that you were buoyed war mongering star too (Expecting curse to my shyte out) along with buddy boy EA/WE/SO/NO Watch.Were you in weeds or Cialis brother that transformed your Bengali-Gene?
Now, leaving sarcasm aside, I wanted ask if you were watching the surrounding developments like Pakistani army's decision to go after SWAies and gold rise, dollar devaluation etc? Please amalgamate them with BD-Burma war-like-scenario to find out how the situation is shaping out for our Asian, especially the south-hemispherian to become an inferno. And making people, countrymen aware about dooms day don't equate with baffonaries, cowardice; does it? So, please stop being a war monger or if you are so for it then take a gun fight it yourself to save my poor bother's lives.
Seems like you have a very little knowledge about Bengali genes being a Bengali. Bengalis are the one who built the biggest army in the subcontinent. If I could recall correctly it was a million troops under Dhramapal. Bengalis are the one who spread their kingdom from Indonesia to Afganistan. Srilanka still bears the name of Bengali King Vijay Sinha. Alexander turned back from the bank of Ganga. Bengali is the one who faught and lost against British. Bengalis is the one who had the audacity to take up arms against british for the independence movement. Bengali came up with the idea of Pakistan and faught for it. Bengali is the only country in the subcontinent who faught for its independence and came out victorious.
Now after all these why are you doubting bengalis ability to fight? Is it because that Bengalis are not bone headed and they dont push people around? Is it because bengalis dont carry sword or AK-47 in their soldier to show their might? Or is it because Bengalis were barred from joining british army after 1857 mutiny?
Sometimes you are just hilarious.
Thanks for the elaborate news. Other posters would appreciate if you kindly send also the link to this news.

DIPU MONI-NYAN WIN MEET
Myanmar rejects reports on troops mobilisation along border
Myanmar on Friday categorically rejected recent media reports of the mobilization of its troops along Bangladesh-Myanmar border and claimed that such movement was a routine exercise.
This was stated by Myanmar’s foreign affairs minister, Nyan Win, when he called on foreign minister Dipu Moni in an interval of the Asia Cooperation Dialogue ministerial meeting in Colombo, said a release of the foreign affairs ministry on Friday.
During the discussion Dipu Moni raised the issue of the Rohingya refugees in camps inside Bangladesh and urged her Myanmar counterpart to come to an early and amicable resolution of the issue.
The release said that both the ministers agreed on the need for increasing bilateral interaction to consolidate and strengthen relations between the two countries. In this context, they stressed on the need for frequent consultation between the two sides at all levels to dispel any misperception on either side.
Dipu Moni also requested him to relax the border visa regime for Bangladeshi businessmen to enable them to stay for at least 30 days in Myanmar.
Currently, Bangladeshi businessmen get visa for only 14 days’ duration.
Dipu Moni also proposed joint-venture projects for generation of hydro-electricity and production of fertilizer from gas imported from Myanmar[/COLOR]

Just came across a news,that all of Burma's Mig-29s,12 in total are based at sitwee air base.
The following report was published by Bangladeshi Think tank Bangladesh Institute of Peace and Security Studies (BIPSS) on sep 11.Now on very next month we are seeing this stand off.
Here is sitwee

The report also turned out to be true about movement of artillery and tanks.

Not sure about that.But not all of them are sent for overhauling at once.So there must be some still here.
Besides Burmese ordered more migs to be delivered by 2010 I think.

General Zia went to India and cooled down things.
I very much understand your point, army people are particularly taught not to divulge any of their internal information even to their family members. It is against their code of conduct. So, this is the reason that the army Colonel in the Comilla cantonment was not giving information to his PDF poster friend.
Moreover, army troops usually move at night when there is little traffic on the roads. In a warlike situation, this has been strictly followed.
