India announced plans to establish 40 Intelligence Bureau units along its border with Bangladesh to strengthen surveillance and curb infiltration and organized crime.
India has revealed its intention to set up 40 Intelligence Bureau (IB) units along the Bangladesh border, a move aimed at tightening security and preventing illegal infiltration.
The new units will focus on monitoring cross‑border movements, gathering intelligence, and disrupting organized crime networks that exploit porous sections of the frontier.
Officials say the deployment will enhance coordination between the IB and local law‑enforcement agencies, ensuring a swift response to any security threats.
The decision follows increasing concerns over smuggling and illegal migration in the region, and is part of a broader strategy to safeguard national borders.
