The curfew prohibited the movement of people near the border with the intent to cross into Bangladesh or enter India illegally. It also restricted any unauthorized procession or unlawful assembly of five or more persons and banned the carrying of items that could be used as weapons, such as sticks, rods, and stones.
Additionally, the order aimed to curb illegal and undesirable activities including the smuggling of cattle, contraband goods, betelnut, betel leaves, dry fish, bidis, cigarettes, and tea leaves in and around the Indo-Bangladesh border.
The order was enforced immediately due to the urgency of the situation.
