The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has sought an umbrella probe into cases involving illegal Bangladeshi immigrants residing in India.

A senior official revealed that during a recent meeting, all states and union territories were directed to probe these cases as umbrella investigations and identify individuals who facilitated the illegal immigrants in obtaining Aadhaar cards and other Indian citizenship-related documents.

The official noted that in some instances, these documents were created to travel to European countries or the Middle East, and the individuals did not remain in India for long.

Investigating officers have been instructed to identify and charge those who assisted illegal immigrants in acquiring such documents.

According to the MHA, between January 2024 and January 2025, a total of 2,601 Bangladeshi citizens were apprehended along the Indo-Bangladesh border. The government has bolstered border security through advanced surveillance, increased manpower, and the integration of advanced technologies.

During the investigation, it has been instructed to identify the loopholes used to generate documents. All suspicious Aadhaar cards have been sent for re-verification, which includes scrutiny of the documents submitted for Aadhaar generation. In a meeting with Aadhar officials, they have been asked to pass instructions to all Aadhar centers to inform the police in case they find any person trying to modify or generate Aadhar on suspicious documents.

In case of confirmation of illegal Bangladeshi nationals, the persons will be kept in the detention centre, and FRRO will be informed to facilitate their safe return as per protocols.In a special operation, Delhi Police arrested more than 20 Bangladeshi nationals who were residing illegally in the national capital.

Measures include Surveillance equipment like Hand Held Thermal Imager (HHTI), Night Vision Device (NVD), UAVs, CCTV/PTZ cameras, IR sensors, and the Comprehensive Integrated Border Management System (CIBMS) pilot in Dhubri (Assam).

To keep check on the issue of illegal border crossing, the Border Security Force (BSF) interacts with Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) at various levels. Further, a Coordinated Border Management Plan (CBMP) signed in 2011 between BSF and BGB exists for meeting of BSF-BGB Nodal Officers.

Identify all illegal intruders and all those who supported them. Deport illegals and punish those who supported them.

I understand the flailing, but 2600 illegal Bangladeshis in a whole year? For your land of milk and honey? 😉

I think there are at least two lakh illegal Indians sitting in Dhaka alone, working gainfully in factories, making way more money than any "supposed" illegal Bangladeshi does in India (which I very much doubt).

There are way more jobs available for poor and middle class people in Bangladesh - they have little reason to go seek jobs in India. Bangladesh is a "bottom-driven" economy, unlike India.

These "Bangladeshis" have to be mostly Indians from poor regions in India. Allah knows there are no shortage of poor people in India.

I wasn't being entirely serious there.

No idea about illegal Indians in BD but idhar to bhot hain from across the fence, your side walas..

Demographics wala bhi scene hai, how many do you figure of those illegal Indians in BD are of the Musalmand faith ?

Idhar nationalists in Assam and 7 sisters been beating the demographic change ka dhol for a while.

I'd say close to maybe under five percent. Indian Muslims are rare in Bangladesh.

Most of the Muslims in Assam are original inhabitants (regardless of Assamese nationalist propaganda). Karimganj and Shilchar region of Assam were heavily Muslim even before 1947. These Assamese areas (Barak Valley) were supposed to be part of East Pakistan but were given to India in exchange for major part of Punjab given to Pakistan.

But no matter - all water under the bridge.

Sad part is that Muslims in Barak Valley have been living there for ten generations, but being Muslims, their allegiance to India and citizenship is being questioned.
