Exhibiting a fresh move of ‘goodwill gesture’ towards a friendly neighbouring nation, the Border Security Force (BSF) on Monday handed over a Bangladeshi minor boy to Border Guards Bangladesh (BGB) on the International Border of South Garo Hills in Meghalaya. "The boy had inadvertently crossed the International Boundary and entered into Indian territory on Sunday," said the BSF, which is mandated to guard the 4,096 km India-Bangladeah Border, the fifth-longest land border in the world, with West Bengal having the highest length with 2,217 km, Tripura (856km), Meghalaya (443km), Assam (262km) and Mizoram (180km).
