A Border Security Foree (BSF) unit deployed at a remote village along the India-Bangladesh border in West Bengal has launched a maiden incense manufacturing programme to provide gainful employment for the local women, officials said.

The project, Baibhav Samruddhi Seema Sugandh Agarbatti (glory and prosperity border fragrance incense sticks) was unveiled in the Hudapara village of Nadia district on May 22.

The 32nd BSF battalion has engaged a Kolkata-based expert to impart training to the women folk in the village and is helping them source the raw material and prepare the final product, a senior BSF officer said.
