The sea areas of Bangladesh are of immense value and importance to the country and its people. The Bay is very rich with marine fisheries resources. Some of the important fishing grounds are "Swatch of No Ground", "Middle Ground", "South Patches" and "Kohinoor Point". These fishing grounds attract many local fishermen and also illegal fishermen from foreign countries. Besides, gas fields have been discovered in this area and there is good prospect of striking hydrocarbon in the area. The livelihood of millions of people of Bangladesh and the economy of the country are greatly dependent on its resources in sea areas and its numerous rivers. Considering the importance of safeguarding national interest and maintaining law and order in these areas, Bangladesh Coast Guard was formed in the month of September 1994.
