BCCI Chief’s Visit to India: Transparency Ensured
In a recent announcement, the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) clarified that there is no secrecy surrounding the upcoming visit of Major General Mohammad Ashraful Islam Siddiqi, the Director-General (DG) of the organization, to India.
No Room for Speculation
Amid speculations in some local media outlets regarding the secrecy of the BGB Chief’s visit to India, the BGB has come forward to address any concerns. Some media reports have raised questions about the impact of such news on the image of the border security force, leading to confusion among the general public.
Official Confirmation on Social Media
On Friday night (January 24), the BGB’s verified Facebook page posted information regarding the upcoming conference between the BGB and the Border Security Force (BSF) Director-Generals in India in mid-February. This post served as the official confirmation of the event and was subsequently covered by various local media outlets.
Clarity from Government Authorities
The Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Foreign Affairs have also mentioned the conference in multiple press briefings. Currently, the BGB is engaging with the local population to ensure that the role it plays in border security is well understood, especially in light of potentially confusing or misleading social media posts.
Open Collaboration for Regional Security
Scheduled for February 17-21 in New Delhi, the conference will involve representatives from various relevant ministries and organizations in addition to the BGB. The event aims to enhance cooperation and communication for regional security. The BGB has emphasized that there is no secrecy involved in the visit, and no efforts have been made to keep any information hidden. All individuals are urged to refrain from spreading misleading posts and to exercise caution to avoid confusion.
As the BGB takes steps to foster transparency and collaboration in regional security efforts, it is essential for the public to stay informed through official channels and avoid falling prey to misinformation. By working together, both the BGB and the local community can ensure a safer and more secure border region.
