Kolkata – After the formation of the BJP government in the state, action against Bangladeshi infiltrators has been intensified. To detain such individuals, detention centers have been established in 11 districts. So far, 386 Bangladeshi infiltrators have been arrested.

The largest number of detainees, that is 335 Bangladeshi infiltrators have been housed In the three detention centers located in Basirhat, which lies near the Bangladesh border. This includes 148 men, 99 women, and 88 children. Thereafter, 19 infiltrators have been detained in Murshidabad, 9 in Malda, 8 in Dakshin Dinajpur, 5 in Baruipur, 3 in Barasat, 2 each in Cooch Behar and Jangipur, and 1 each in Sundarban, Bongaon, and Krishnanagar. Under the ‘Detect, Delete and Deport’ policy, these individuals are being held in detention centers while authorities verify and cancel fraudulent identity documents. After the process is completed, they will be handed over to the border authorities for deportation.

Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari had announced the establishment of detention centers as part of the ‘Detect, Delete and Deport’ campaign. Accordingly, 11 such centers have been set up so far. In addition, the state government has provided 142.79 acres of land across nine districts to the Border Security Force for fencing work along the Bangladesh border.

Editorial Perspective

The leaders of the Communist parties and the Trinamool Congress, which governed Bengal for many years are responsible for providing shelter to infiltrators until now. Such individuals should be declared traitors and given the death penalty. Additionally, the concerned parties should also be banned immediately; only then will no one dare to commit such acts again!
