Illegal immigrants of Bangladesh are a threat to UP

By Subhash Singh from Lucknow

But Police will not be successful in it’s drive due to the interference of political leaders and so-called social organisations who favoure these intruders due to their personal interest. In some areas of the State the name of these Bangladeshis are in voters list. They are the voters of the so-called secular parties, specially in the Muslim dominated districts of the State.

Up is facing a new threat from illegal immigrants. These intruders are basically the civilians of Bangladesh but they have been successful to get Indian identity cards like rashan cards, driving licenses, (Below Poverty Line) BPL cards and mobile connections, etc. These intruders claim that they are the true residents of Assam and West Bengal. Their mother tongue is Bengali, therefore the local police and local intelligence unit are unable to identify them as Bangladeshis. Police sources say that these Bangladeshi intruders have settled in the outskirts of nearly every district of Uttar Pradesh. Anti-social elements and sometimes Muslim terrorists take shelter in their huts. Police sources say that nearly ten lack Bangladeshi intruders are in UP. Till now no police verification has been done successfully due to the vote bank politics of political parties.

The Director General of UP police Shri Vikram Singh wrote a letter to all the superintendents of police and directed them to check the credentials of Bangladeshi nationals who have migrated to India. In the drive, it was made clear that Bangladeshi nationals are in every district of UP. Local intelligence of police is unable to identify them as immigrants due to their Indian identity cards. Till today only one Bangladeshi could be deported to his motherland. When a drive against them starts, secular leaders come in for their defence. These leaders mostly belong to Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and the Congress. These leaders assume them as their vote bank. They create hindrance against the drive. Police sources say that ISI protected terrorists of Bangladesh and Pakistan take shelter in their huts and act against the unity and integrity of India.

It is supposed that these Bangladeshi nationals are living in outskirts of Lucknow, Muradabad, Agra, Rampur, Farrukhabad, Meerut, Aligarh, Kanpur, Varanasi, Gazipur, Ballia, Sultanpur, Faizabad, Banda, Lalitpur, Jhansi, Mainpuri, Auraiya, Itawa and Kannauj, etc. The capital of Uttar Pradesh Lucknow is disturbed because of these Bangladeshi intruders. These intruders have become part and parcel of local Muslim community. Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party protects them due to vote bank politics. They are living in Kgdiyaghat, Pkka Pull, Kakori, Triveni Nagar, Madiyav, Hasangang, Gaiipur, Faijullagang, Paharpur, Nishatgang, Rahimnagar, Kukrail, Balughat, Mankameshwar, Sarvodar Nagar, Gulabghat, Aishbagh, etc. In a search operation, thousands of Bangladeshis were checked with regards to their personal details, which included their name, age and identification proofs including the time period of their stay. A police officer said that we conducted the drive after getting a tip-off that some of Bangladeshi nationals were living in the city without getting their verification done. During the whole exercise verification forms of all the migrants living in capital were filled and a detailed investigations were conducted. According to the Police, last year a Bangladeshi national Mantosh Kumar was deported to his country after the expiry of his term of punishment,. Police also claimed that those found guilty will be booked under the section of Foreigners Act 1946 and Section3/2/4 of Passport Entry in India Act, 1920. Local intelligence agency have also accepted that the drive has been started keeping in view the security concerns. As a part of this drive those people who have been living in UP illegally will be deported to their motherland.

But Police will not be successful in it’s drive due to the interference of political leaders and so called social organisations who favoure these intruders due to their personal interest. In some areas of the State the name of these Bangladeshis are in voters list. They are the voters of so called secular parties. Specially in the Muslim dominated districts of the State. In these districts intruders have taken shelter and they are part of Muslim community. When a drive starts against them, Muslim community comes forward in their support. All India United Muslim Morcha plays a dominant role in this respect. The Mayor of Lucknow Shri Dinesh Sharma accepted that these Bangladeshis have become threat to the security of Lucknow. The organisational secretary of VHP Shri Purushottam Narayan Singh said that these intruders must be deported to their motherland as soon as possible.
