Border killings
must stop

Multiple citizens of Bangladesh become victims of border killings every year. Reportedly, the BSF killed 48 Bangladeshis in 2020.
If anyone commits a crime at the border, let them be brought under the law. Despite several rounds of talks between Bangladesh and India, the border situation has not changed. But sincere efforts by India can help stop border killings of Bangladeshis.
