Police recovered 11 crude bombs from Kabirajpara in Chapainawabganj Sadar upazila on Friday morning, shortly after two crude bombs exploded in the area.
Police conducted a search operation after receiving reports of the explosions and recovered the crude bombs from the area.
No arrests had been made in connection with the incident as of noon.
Ekaramul Hossain, officer-in-charge of Chapainawabganj Sadar Model Police Station, confirmed the recovery.
Police and local residents said tensions had been prevailing for several days between residents of Kabirajpara and Sheikhpara villages over establishing control in the area.
Against this backdrop, two crude bombs exploded one after another in Kabirajpara on Friday morning.

Local residents alleged that supporters of Abdul Wadud and Jalal Uddin had been involved in a longstanding dispute over control of the area.
