| India announces a new fence will seal off its border with Bangladesh by next year, in an effort to stop
the movement of Islamist militants across the border. Jonathan Rugman reports.
Almost 2,000 miles of barbed wire and concrete will be built in the name of security, cutting India off
from Bangladesh.
Over 1,000 miles have been completed so far, but hundreds of Bangladeshis and Indians have been
shot dead alongside by Indian troops.
