The four trucks seized by the BSF for carrying coal illegally and trying to cross over to Bangladesh in South Garo Hills by breaking the border fencing in an attempt to transport coal to the neighbouring country on April 13. The BSF troops noticed some movement of miscreants near the Indo-Bangladesh border fence on the night of April 13. As soon as the BSF night domination party rushed to the spot it was found that some Bangladeshi nationals had also intruded into Indian territory to help Indian smugglers, who had managed to break the fence gate.

The city witnessed a massive traffic jam on Saturday with vehicles seen stranded along certain routes for almost an hour. From MES point to Laitumkhrah, long queues of vehicles were seen static and overtaking by irresponsible drivers only added to the misery of those stranded. According to Police, the congestion was caused by the 'peace rally' that saw almost 12000 people march on the city roads leading to closure of certain routes. (ST)
