Malda:
On Monday, two cattle smugglers were shot dead by Border Security Force (BSF)
personnel at Anuradhapur village in Malda district of West Bengal.
BSF
officials have said that a group of people were smuggling cattle from the
village near the India-Bangladesh border by cutting barbed wire fencing. When
the men in uniform challenged them, the fired and BSF personnel retaliated,
killing two men on the spot while others fled. The officials have said that the
two deceased were yet to be identified.
BJP
state president Dilip Ghosh said, “We all know that these madrasas in bordering
areas are breeding ground of anti-national elements. These madrasas get funds
from foreign countries. These madrasas are creating a chain, which is making
the border vulnerable to anti-national activities, illegal cattle trade and
smuggling.”
Earlier
this month, the BJP in West Bengal has demanded immediate sealing of the
India-Bangladesh border, claiming madrasas operating along it are a breeding
ground of terrorism and anti-national activities in the country.
