India did not officially inform Bangladesh of a reported move to deploy its own forces for the safety and security of its high commission premises and diplomats in Dhaka. 'India, as far as I know, has not expressed its intent to man the high commission premises with its own security personnel,' the foreign secretary, Mohamed Mijarul Quayes, told reporters on Monday when his attention was called to the concerns expressed by the main opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party secretary general, Khandaker Delwar Hossain, against the deployment of Indian forces for the security of its mission in Dhaka. 'Foreign missions in any country are a sovereign and independent territory. But a foreign mission can take its security measures, including the deployment of special forces, only if it is not restricted by the laws of the host country,' he said. 'The responsibility for the security of Bangladesh missions abroad lies with us. But we need to make a balance between the laws of the host country and protect our rights to internal and external security of our missions,' he said. Several newspapers reported that India would deploy a 50-member team of special security forces to increase protection of its high commission in Dhaka.
