During the Indo-Bangladesh Home secretary-level talks in New Delhi on February 16 and 17, Indian Home secretary L C Goyal has proposed an anti-terror pact with the eastern neighbour, envisaging a structured mechanism for exchange of terror information and updates, reports The Times of India on February 20. Goyal also handed to his Bangladeshi counterpart Md Mozammel Haque Khan a list of 39 camps of Indian Insurgent Groups (IIGs) still operating out of Bangladeshi territory. Seeking a crackdown on the camps of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA), National Democratic Front of Boroland (NDFB), National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) and United National Liberation Front (UNLF) etc, concentrated in the Chittagong region, the Indian side is believed to have provided Dhaka with their detailed coordinates. The proposed Indo-Bangladesh anti-terror pact seeks to boost security ties between the two countries through regular exchange of terror information and intelligence on short-term and long-term threats, joint investigation of terror cases with cross-country linkages (including one relating to Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh [JMB]'s activities), coordinated counter-terror action as well as exchange of training and best counter-terror practices. The formalization of the agreement will also pave the way for enhanced cooperation between Indian and Bangladeshi agencies to check terror financing and circulation of counterfeit currency. A senior Home Ministry officer said "The Bangladeshi home secretary, while acknowledging the need for closer anti-terror cooperation with India, said he would relay India's proposal to the Sheikh Hasina Government, which would then take a call on the way forward." Meanwhile, Goyal also updated Khan on the status of ratification of the Indo-Bangladesh Land Boundary Agreement. Report also said that a constitutional amendment bill is expected to be taken up in the coming session of Parliament for consideration and passage.

In Home Secretary level talks concluding on February 18, India and Bangladesh have agreed to tread an extra mile to help each other in resolving anti national and terror activities in their areas, reports DNA. Bangladesh has assured India that it would construct border outposts (BOPs) along the uncharted territory of Tripura and Mizoram to check proliferation of camps of Indian Insurgent Groups (IIGs) in Chittagong area and to put a stop to unbridled human trafficking through the porous border. Sources said that "To help India weed out terror training camps of insurgent groups, Bangladesh has offered to construct 40 more BOPs in addition to the 13 that have already been constructed. The BOPs will be manned by the Border Guards Bangladesh (BGB) to ensure that IIGs camps are demolished and one of the biggest corridors for human trafficking is plugged." India's Home Secretary LC Goyal also told his Bangladeshi counterpart, Mozammel Haque Khan that the Indian security agencies that have already tightened their grip to stop all forms of anti-Bangladesh activities will continue work in close coordination of Bangladesh to check Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB). The assurance assumes special significance following the October 2, 2014 Burdwan bomb blast in West Bengal and the subsequent developments.

According to reports there appears to be contradictory views about the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) setting up the Burdwan (West Bengal) module, as the National Investigating Agency (NIA) in its chargesheet is likely to suggest that the operation was aimed at carrying out terror strikes in India, while Bangladesh continues to maintain that the intention of the JMB was to hit at the Sheikh Hasina regime, reports One India on February 24. The NIA says that on interrogation of the all the accused persons it has learnt that they had been setting up modules to carry out strikes in West Bengal, Assam among other states in India. Bangladesh on the other hand says that the JMB has only one intention and that is to shake up Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina and her government. They found it hard to set up modules in Bangladesh and hence chose West Bengal where they were readying a module to strike at the Awami League (AL) led by Sheikh Hasina. The NIA says that in its chargesheet to be filed next month it would state that these people part of the Burdwan module were planning on setting up several terror cells in India. The intention was to provide aid to other terror groups and also carry out a series of attacks in India, including a major one in Kolkata. The NIA says that the JMB is in a running battle against the Sheikh Hasina government, but that does not mean they would set up modules in India for that purpose. We have investigated that angle too and have found that the intention was only to destablise India. Further the NIA points out that part of the chargesheet would also deal with how the JMB with the help of local modules raised the Burdwan module and also gathered funds locally. The NIA also states that the investigation is an ongoing one and they could file additional chargesheets in the future. We have modules in Assam and Jharkhand also to be investigated and these things take time, the NIA official also maintained. However Bangladesh is firm and says that the operatives that they have questioned in connection with the same case say that the intention was to carry out strikes in Bangladesh. Bangladesh investigators point out that the JMB was using India to build up their module. They even procured funds within India to fund the module. They wanted to prepare bombs in India and transport it to Bangladesh, investigations over there have also found. Meanwhile, Bangladesh would request India to extradite all the accused India has arrested in connection with the Burdwan blasts case, adds One India. Bangladesh contends that the entire module was being set up to commit an offence in Bangladesh and hence all of them be extradited.
