New Delhi, March 12 (bdnews24.com) Bangladesh has asked India to curb smuggling of adulterated cough syrup across the border.
The chief of Border Guards Bangladesh handed over to its Indian counterpart a list of the criminals involved in smuggling of adulterated cough syrups, particularly Phensedyl. The list also contains pictures and details of the locations of the illegal cough syrup re-bottling plants in India.
The list is one of the seven the BGB director general Maj Gen Rafiqul Islam handed over to Raman Srivastava, head of BSF, during the 33rd India-Bangladesh Border Coordination Conference, which concluded in New Delhi on Saturday.
Addressing a joint news-conference with Srivastava, Islam said that trafficking of narcotics and adulterated cough syrups from India to Bangladesh was a very serious issue for the latter and he had requested the BSF DG to ensure strong actions against the people on the basis of the information contained in the list he had given to him.
He said that the miscreants generally lace the cough-syrups with addictive substance before rebottling the bottles in illegal factories on the other side of the Bangladesh-India border.
One of the lists handed over to the BSF contained names of the Bangladeshi criminals and 'anti-State elements', who are believed to be hiding in India. The elements Dhaka wants New Delhi to act against included activists of the Bangabhumi Andolon, an organization allegedly seeking to create an independent entity with parts of Bangladesh and Indian state of West Bengal.
Another contained names of Bangladeshi nationals killed by the BSF on the border. Other lists contained information about trafficking of fake currency and collection of relevant reports appeared in Bangladesh media.
The BSF DG also handed over to the BGB chief lists containing Indian insurgent leaders and locations of the camps of anti-India groups operating in Bangladesh, requesting necessary actions.
The Border Coordination Conference also paved the way for India to construct single-line barbed wire fence right on the zero-line of its border with Bangladesh in 46 unfenced areas.
Due to topographical reasons, New Delhi is facing problems in erecting barbed-wire fence at a distance of 150 yards from the zero-line in 46 patches along the 4096 kilometer-long border between Bangladesh and India.
Elsewhere along the border, India erected the double-line fence adhering to the rule that no permanent structure could be built by any country within 150 yards from the zero line of the international border.
Srivastava and Islam on Saturday said that both sides had agreed to complete the joint inspection of the 20 out of the 46 unfenced patches along the border. The BGB and BSF had earlier completed inspection of the 26 unfenced patches.
