India-Bangladesh borderland: Voices of the tortured people of the border areas of Bangladesh

Abstract

The India-Bangladesh borderland serves as a vital crossroads, witnessing the convergence of diverse cultures, trade, and historical ties. The people of Bangladeshi borders seem that India has been our trusted friend since the emergence of our country. However, amidst this dynamic landscape, the border areas of Bangladesh bear witness to the anguish and suffering endured by its inhabitants. The experiences and perspectives of the tortured people residing in the border areas of Bangladesh, specifically focus on the impact of the India-Bangladesh border control operations led by the Border Security Force (BSF). Sometimes innocent people at the Bangladeshi border are being tortured by the BSF when they are trying to ensure their state security from any unwanted anomalies in the adjacent India-Bangladesh border. This study contributes to a better understanding of the complex dynamics at play in the India-Bangladesh border region and calls for attention to the plight of the innocent tortured people residing there.
