Silchar: In a bid to combat extremist movement and curb the smuggling of cattle and goods, the Cachar district administration in Assam has enforced a night curfew along the India-Bangladesh border.

The order, issued by District Magistrate Mridul Yadav, aims to ensure public order and prevent illegal cross-border activities, according to an official statement released on Tuesday.

The curfew, which comes under Section 163 of the BNSS, is intended to prevent potential disruptions caused by unauthorised transportation of commodities and cattle, as well as the movement of extremist elements.

The district magistrate emphasised the urgency of taking preventive measures to maintain peace and security in the region.

The restrictions, effective immediately, will remain in place for two months unless modified.

As part of the directive, movement is prohibited within a one-kilometre radius of the India-Bangladesh border from sunset to sunrise.

This move aims to curb cross-border trafficking and ensure increased security during vulnerable hours.

Additionally, the curfew extends to the Surma River and its high banks, with fishing activities being restricted.

Exceptions to this rule will be made only for local residents who obtain prior permission from the Katigorah circle officer and approval from the lessee.

In an effort to combat the illegal transportation of essential goods, the order also bans the movement of items such as sugar, rice, wheat, edible oil, and salt between sunset and sunrise within a five-kilometre belt along the border.

However, the circle officer can issue special permits for transportation after verifying the purpose and obtaining clearance from local supply officials.

State and central government employees on duty are exempt from these restrictions.

The curfew is part of ongoing efforts by the district administration to curb illicit activities and maintain security along Assam’s international border.
