No anti-Indian ultra camps in Bangla territory: BDR
Monday, May 3 2004 19:59 Hrs (IST)

Kolkata: The recent director-general level Border Security Force (BSF)-Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) annual conference in Dhaka failed to reach a consensus on steps to identify anti-Indian ultra camps in Bangladesh because of Dhaka's insistence that there was none on its territory.

"BDR denied the existence of anti-Indian militant training camps in Bangladesh despite being furnished with lists of wanted people hiding there carrying out anti-Indian propaganda," BSF director-general Ajai Raj Sharma, who attended the Dhaka meet told a press conference in Kolkata.

His counterpart, he said, did not budge from his stand that there were no anti-Indian militant training camps on Bangladesh soil.

After the BSF submitted a list of 194 training camps of militant outfits carrying out anti-Indian campaigns and supplying arms from the Bangladesh side, BDR gave a list of 37 camps, mostly in Tripura carrying out "anti-Bangladesh campaign from Indian soil, mostly in Tripura", he said.

Sharma said he himself submitted a list of 191 terrorists and criminals wanted in India to his BDR counterpart, "which prompted the BDR chief to give to me a list of 115 wanted Bangladeshis hiding in India".

BDR, he said, was non-committal to BSF suggestions on joint raids on either side for spotting militant training camps.

He, however, hoped that the Home Secretary-level meet in June end or early July would help in resolving these issues.
