The Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) stopped the Indian Border Security Force (BSF) from illegally installing barbed wire fence along Hili border in Dinajpur on Tuesday.

At this time, additional personnel were deployed on the border by the two forces.

Later, when a flag meeting was held between them, the situation calmed down after BSF agreed to stop the work, BGB's Hili ICP Camp Commander Saidul Islam confirmed the matter to Bangla Tribune.

According to BGB and local sources, BSF started the installation of pillars to fence with barbed wire at noon.

However, they started working in the area adjacent to the border pillar without complying with the international law of the border which stated that no construction can be done within 150 yards of “no man's land”. When the incident came to the attention of BGB, they stopped BSF from doing this, causing tension between the two forces.

Later, a 10-minute long flag meeting was held between the two forces at around 2:45pm. The meeting was chaired by BGB's Hilli ICP Camp Commander Subedar Saidul Islam on behalf of BGB and BC Josi, India's Hilli BSF Camp Commander on behalf of BSF.
