Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to visit Tripura on June 5 to assess the security situation along the India-Bangladesh border.He will hold high-level meetings with border guarding forces and state administration. His visit will be part of a four-state tour to review security along the nation’s international borders. The other states he will be visiting include Rajasthan, Gujarat, Tripura and West Bengal. As part of the outreach, Shah will arrive in Bikaner on Monday. He is also expected to visit West Bengal on June 15 to review security arrangements in sensitive stretches of the international border.
The visits come amid the Centre’s continued emphasis on strengthening border infrastructure, improving surveillance, and enhancing coordination between security forces and local administrations. Last week, Shah announced that the Ministry of Home Affairs will soon convene a high-level meeting in New Delhi with the chief ministers of Assam, Tripura and West Bengal to formulate a coordinated strategy to curb infiltration along the Bangladesh border. The Centre is moving to tighten border security through technology-driven surveillance and stronger inter-agency coordination.
