Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar has demanded the Centre to put "intense" national and international pressure on Bangladesh to dismantle terrorists camps in that country.
"Bangladesh has become a hub for ultras especially as far as the Northeastern region is concerned.
It is urgently required that Bangladesh should be subjected to intense pressure, both nationally and internationally, to dismantle the terrorists camps located on it's soil and strongly discourage the movement of these groups within it's territory," officials sources quoting Sarkar said today.
"We have given definite information about existence of terrorists camps in Bangladesh, details of cross border movement of these groups, their training with active connivance of the ISI," Sarkar said yesterday at the chief ministers' conference on internal security and law and order in Delhi.
The chief minister, also the home minister of the state, said, as Tripura shares 856-km long porous border with Bangladesh, there is an urgent need to completely seal it by fencing, enhancing forces and introducing modern electronic gadgets and flood lighting the entire border.
To guard the border it is necessary to properly maintain the border roads effectively. But the present condition of the roads along the international border is a major impediment to effective and timely mobilisation of the security forces, he said.
