Agartala, Tripura,18th of January, 2025 : A news regarding construction of an embankment on the Manu River is circulating in the media as well as online platforms.

An old elevated kacha track exists in Bangladesh territory opposite to the area of BOP Rangauti connecting Bangladeshi village Sharipur and Devipur. In Bangladesh territory this is being used for pedestrians, cycle and auto rickshaws for conveyance of people from one village to another village.
During monsoon season the top kacha portion of the bund got damaged resulting in a number of potholes which Bangladesh tried to repair by putting fresh earth in the month of November. As some portion of elevated kacha track falls within 150 yards of International Boundary, immediately it was observed by BSF and on 8th Nov 2024 a casual contact was made with BGB Post Alinager 46 BGB and a strong protest was lodged to stop the work immediately. Thereafter the work was stopped by Bangladesh.
The Manu river flows close to International border . The river Manu enters into Bangladesh near own BOP Lathipura and further flows towards Bangladesh. Manu river is approx 700 meters away from the elevated road which is being projected as a bandh of Manu river.
Further the matter was discussed with DM Unakoti by DIG BSF Panisagar and apprised him about the actual ground realities.
BSF is fully committed to maintaining the sanctity of the international border and will not allow any violation of the established ground rules.
