Bangladesh telecom operators shut down services along India border, cites security reasons

Tuesday, 31st December 2019

Bangladesh's telecom controller has requested administrators to close down administrations along the fringe with India referring to security reasons, specialists said in an announcement.

Portable system inclusion has been suspended for one kilometre along the full fringe with India until further notice "for the nation's security in the present conditions", authorities said in the announcement, which was discharged on Monday.

One authority on the state of namelessness said the choice was removed from worry that Indian Muslims may look to enter Bangladesh after India presented another citizenship law which has activated rough fights crosswise over India.

Pundits have said the law is hostile to Muslim and against the mainstream estimation of the Indian constitution.
