It’s to be mentioned here that Sonamura has become the corridor of smuggling cows and buffaloes to Bangladesh for last few months. Cattle smuggling rises through Indo Bangla Border by smugglers under Sonamura Sub Division, says report.
It is also reported that a gang of smugglers take the cows from Churaibari of Assam to Bishramganja under Sepahijala district of Tripura. Then using different routes, they reach the border area and smuggle them at night. Though the BSF were informed about this, they were unable to take any steps against this as BSF operates only 2km from the border. Therefore, they waited until the buffalos reached the border area. In many parts of Sonamura Sub Division Indo Bangla Border area ,BSF are also earning money and so they remain inactive over this issue. One bike rider died due to massive rise in cattle smuggling at Sonamura.
