DHAKA, OCT.13. The Indian authorities here have denied Bangladeshi media reports regarding the breaching of an embankment in Satkhira, causing floods in the vast southern villages. A press release of the Indian High Commission here said: "Neither the BSF nor any other Indian nationals crossed into Bangladesh territory. The allegation made in these media reports that the BSF or Indian nationals, aided by the BSF, entered Bangladesh to deliberately breach an embankment located 250 metres within Bangladeshi territory at Satkhira is completely false." It said the reports were referred to the authorities concerned in India who had conducted an investigation. The BSF had never encouraged nor did it condone such acts by Indian nationals, more so in the territory of another country. This had already been unambiguously conveyed to the BDR officials during a flag meeting held on October 8 to assess the facts in the situation, the press release said.
