Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has announced rewards for information on attempts by leaders and activists of the banned Awami League to enter Bangladesh from India.
Lieutenant Colonel Golam Mohammad Saiful Alam Khan, commander of BGB's 49 Battalion in Jashore, announced the reward at a meeting with journalists on Sunday (November 15).
He said many Awami League leaders and activists had fled to India, mostly staying in Kolkata and West Bengal. BGB has tightened border security in Jashore and Satkhira, deploying CCTV cameras, searchlights, night patrols and drones to prevent their return.
