Looking for RAB Jessore? The organisation is now SRB
“RAB Jessore” remains a common search term, but Rapid Action Battalion was officially dissolved and reorganised as the Special Response Battalion (SRB) in September 2026. The relevant current unit directory is listed under SRB-06.
RAB Jessore and SRB-06: what changed?
The Bangladesh government renamed and restructured the former Rapid Action Battalion as the Special Response Battalion in September 2026. Personnel, assets, records and responsibilities were transferred to the new organisation.
As a result, older references to “RAB-6 Jessore” or “RAB Jessore” should now be understood as legacy information. People searching with the former name should use current SRB channels when requesting information or assistance.

RAB-6 Jessore location guidance
Older map and directory listings place the former RAB-6 Camp Jessore near Khulna Road, Jashore. However, the current government SRB-06 directory does not identify that map location as a confirmed, publicly accessible SRB office.
Because names, access procedures and operational locations can change, call the SRB-06 central office and confirm the correct destination before visiting.
