Ajit Doval meets Didi for support
National security adviser Ajit Doval
New Delhi/Kolkata: The Centre has decided to change the deployment pattern of the security forces along the porous India-Bangladesh border, in a direct fallout of the Burdwan blast.
Sources said that the BSF, that guards this border, has been directed to prepare a detailed blueprint to ensure that the infiltration of subversive elements is checked. This was conveyed by national security adviser Ajit Doval to West Bengal CM at his meeting with her on Monday.
Mr Doval, along with top security officials, including the heads of the Intelligence Bureau, NIA, NSG and senior home ministry officials, visited the blast site in Burdwan and then met the Chief Minister in Kolkata.
Sources said, Mr Doval explained in detail to Ms Banerjee the need for the NIA to investigate the case as it had “large-scale international ramifications,” specially with Bangladesh, and thus had to be taken extremely seriously.
The NSA also told the West Bengal CM that there was evidence to suggest that some IEDs made at the Burdwan hideout were smuggled across the border into Bangladesh by elements of Jamaat-ul-Mujah-ide-en, as the terror outfit plans to take advantage of the “fluid political situation there.”
The NIA is believed to have completed the first phase of its investigation, that revealed there were 25-30 members of the Jamaat-ul-Muja-hideen Bangladesh not just in West Bengal but also across Assam and South India.
