To maintain law and order, a total of 229 platoons of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) have been deployed across the country amid the ongoing blockade called by BNP, Jamaat and like-minded opposition parties.

Thirty-two BGB platoons have been deployed around garment factories in Dhaka and adjacent areas while the rest 197 platoons were deployed across the country to ensure security during blockade, said Shariful Islam, public relations officer at BGB headquarters.

The 48-hour blockade, called by BNP, Jamaat and like-minded opposition parties to press home their one-point demand, is underway amid arson attacks.
