Security has been increased along parts of the India-Bangladesh border in Tripura. Authorities acted after reports that members of two armed groups from Bangladesh, the Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (PCJSS) and the United People’s Democratic Front (UPDF), might cross into the state. Rinku Lather, District Magistrate of Gomati district, issued a notification warning that these groups, along with other Bangladesh nationals and Rohingyas, could "commit crimes, indulge in smuggling, and disturb public order." This alert came from information received by the Border Security Force (BSF). To maintain peace, restrictions under Section 183 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 have been enforced. A night curfew is now in effect from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. until February 28 in some areas under the Karbook Sub-Division of Gomati district. The notification excludes people living within 300 meters of the international border from these restrictions. Tripura shares an 856-km border with Bangladesh, with the Gomati and Dhalai districts adjoining the conflict-hit Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) region. Earlier, on June 13, 2024, Tripura Police detained 13 PCJSS members, including two women, who had crossed over for medical aid after sharing injuries from clashes in the CHT. Many had bandages on their limbs.
