Agartala, March 25: The Tripura government has set up seven Prevention of Infiltration of Foreigners (PIF) camps across different districts to check illegal infiltration along the state’s 856-km-long international border with Bangladesh.

The camps are located in Dharmanagar (North District), Kailashahar (Unakoti District), Agartala (West District), Kamlasagar and Sonamura (Sepahijala District), Belonia, and Sabroom (South District).

During the Tripura Legislative Assembly session on Monday, the Home Department, in a written statement, emphasised that these PIF camps play a crucial role in monitoring border areas.

“These camps work in close coordination with district police, the Border Security Force (BSF), and other security agencies to prevent illegal infiltration,” the statement said.

The department also refuted claims that human trafficking activities were rising in the state, clarifying that only one case has been recorded this year.

The report stated that to counter human trafficking, the government has intensified efforts, including joint patrolling in sensitive areas near the international border, targeted raids against traffickers based on intelligence inputs, and legal action under relevant laws.
