Central security agencies have sounded an alert on the volatile situation in Bangladesh following inputs suggesting that Pakistan’s ISI and other Islamist terror outfits could try to export terror to India through the Bangladesh border and create a major disturbance in the Northeast, sources said on Wednesday. “The increased extremist rhetoric in Bangladesh and the anti-India narrative as the situation deteriorates is a major cause of concern for India. This could lead to anti-India activities from across the border and terrorist groups might use it to push in terrorists,” he said. India and Bangladesh share a 4,096km international border that runs through Bengal, Tripura, Assam, Meghalaya and Mizoram. Tiwari, along with senior military officers, had visited India-Bangladesh border areas in Mizoram and Tripura to review the prevailing security situation and preparedness alongthe frontier.
