NEW DELHI, Feb 16 - A strategic project to erect an anti-cut �steel fence� along the Indo-Bangladesh border to bring down cross-border crimes and killings is hanging fire as the frontier force of that country is yet to give its nod, officials in the security establishment said.
The single-row fence, with loops of concertina wires on top, is to be erected by India on vulnerable and infiltration-prone stretches along both its eastern (Bangladesh) and western (Pakistan) fronts. While the modern fence along Pakistan will help to curb infiltration of terrorists and smuggling of arms and contraband, along the Bangladesh front it will also help to resolve a major issue of border killings of nationals of both sides. � PTI
