The border coordination meet, on similar lines of what India has with Bangladesh, is being held to thrash out a number of issues related to smuggling of narcotics and arms, illegal crossings, strengthing of border outposts and a host of other security-related subjects on this open border.
The SSB delegation will be led by its Director General Pranay Sahay who is holding the top post of the force in an additional capacity.
