Indian Coast Guard intercepts Bangladeshi vessels in Bay of Bengal: Why New Delhi sees an alarming pattern | Explained
The Indian Coast Guard on December 16 intercepted two Bangladeshi fishing boats that had crossed deep into India’s Exclusive Economic Zone in the northern Bay of Bengal, once again highlighting what Indian officials see as a deliberate pattern rather than accidental incursions.
The vessels were detected by ICG Ship Anmol during routine maritime surveillance. Coast Guard personnel found the boats actively fishing inside Indian waters, with fishing gear deployed and around 500 kilograms of fish catch on board. None of the 35 crew members could produce valid documents or permits authorising them to operate within India’s maritime limits.
