India warns Bangladesh not to shoot at Indian side

NEW DELHI, June 24 (Xinhua) -- India's Border Security Force ( BSF) Thursday warned Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) not to shoot in the direction of India, reported the Press Trust of India.

"We have made it clear that we will not observe the same restraint as we maintained during the last firing by BDR (along the Indo-Bangladesh border in Meghalaya). Unilateral restraint is not possible," the report quoted BSF Assam and Meghalaya chief R. C. Saxena as saying in Shillong, the state capital of Meghalaya.

Saxena also met a BDR delegation led by Brig. Gen. Obaidul Haque at Dawki in Meghalaya, according to the report.

The high-level meeting was held after the BDR on June 15 fired over 3,000 rounds at India in at least five places along the international border in Meghalaya, injuring a school teacher.
