After exchanging gunfire, troop movements, and tension the Border Security Force (BSF) and Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) agreed to reduce tensions by pulling out additional troops from the frontier and adhere to border guidelines and land-boundary agreement. Fighting over a strip of land, the two paramilitary organizations came to an agreement at a Sector Commander-level flag meeting.
The Bangladesh Government dismissed Indian charges that BDR opened fire unprovoked on BSF positions as “false, fabricated and unsubstantiated.”
