Agartala, May 21 -- Tripura chief minister Manik Saha on Thursday said that a team from the Centre is expected to visit the state soon to inspect the condition of the barbed wire fencing along the India-Bangladesh border.

"There are areas where old barbed wire fences have broken down, and in some places they were cut. In some places, there are difficult terrains, rivers, and river directions have also changed. I have forwarded these issues along with photos to the Centre. These are under the process of modernisation. This is required for the sake of the security of Tripura and also of the country, and we shall do it," he said on the sidelines of a passing-out parade event at the KTD Singh Police Training Academy in Agartala on Thursday....
