Locals said that the situation escalated when a group of 500-600 Indians, allegedly assembled by the Border Security Force (BSF), gathered near the barbed wire fence and crossed into Bangladeshi territory. In response, Bangladeshi residents chased the intruders, leading to a clash.

During the confrontation, Indian citizens reportedly detonated several crude bombs, and BSF personnel fired tear gas shells to disperse the crowd.
