Students Explore India-Bangladesh Border: An Educational Exchange

In a unique educational venture, 100 school students from Krishnanagar, including NCC cadets, toured the India-Bangladesh border in West Bengal on Sunday. The visit, despite a 'high alert' due to unrest in the region, showcased the robust safety and security measures in place.

Students visited the BSF border post at Gede, observed the zero line, and met BSF and BGB troops. They were briefed on border protocols by senior BSF officials, including Commandant Sujeet Kumar and DIG Sanjay Kumar.

The students enjoyed a dog show, explored a weapons display gallery, and were introduced to the beehive initiative on the border fence. The BSF facilitated the visit with a hosted lunch, highlighting the seamless coordination between BSF and BGB.
