Eyes in the Sky: Bangladesh Deploys Turkish Drones, India Stays Vigilant

The Indian Army has increased its alertness along the India-Bangladesh border amid the reports that Bangladesh has deployed Turkish-built Bayraktar TB2 drones along the border in West Bengal. Bangladesh's 67th Army operates the drones for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance operations. Though Bangladesh asserts that the deployment is for defensive reasons, India is keeping a close eye on the situation because of its strategic nature and the context of increasing extremist activities along the border. Indian troops are weighing possible countermeasures, such as deploying sophisticated drones and boosting surveillance to secure the border in the face of continuing political instability in Bangladesh.
