Border fully secure, no infiltration from B’desh into Meghalaya: BSF

Shillong: Meghalaya Frontier of BSF on Monday asserted the 443km international boundary, which the state shares with Bangladesh, is fully secure and there has been no infiltration from across the border.
This comes a day after the media in Bangladesh claimed that Ishak Ali Khan Panna, former general secretary of Chhatra League, the student wing of Awami League, died in Meghalaya after fleeing his country.According to news reports in a section of the media in Bangladesh, a relative of Panna claimed that the latter had slipped from a “hill in Shillong” and died of a heart attack.
The state police and the BSF said they have no information about the death of the student leader. “These are false and speculative reports as anything of this kind would have been immediately noticed had it happened within the Indian territory,” a BSF spokesperson said. Meghalaya govt had clamped night curfew along the entire stretch of the India-Bangladesh border in the state following the political turmoil in the neighbouring country.
