Five Bangladesh nationals were apprehended and pushed back from Assam<\/a>\u2019s Karimganj district on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma<\/a> stated in X, \u201cOur @assampolice personnel are maintaining constant vigil along the Indo-Bangladesh border and alert to thwart infiltration<\/a> attempts,\u201d the chief minister posted on \u2018X\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe following Bangladeshi nationals<\/a> were apprehended and pushed back in the wee hours- Afroja Jahirul Sardar, Tumpa Haque, Ridoy Sk, Akhi Sk and Lakhipur Akhtar,\u201d he added.Sarma recently said that around 50 Bangladeshi infiltrators have been identified and pushed back by the state police force since the political unrest in the neighbouring country.<\/p>\n

He had said that the unrest in Bangladesh has increased the influx of Muslims into India, through the borders in Northeast India. The immigrants were using Assam as a passage to reach southern Indian cities to work in the textile industry and he will write to his Tamil Nadu counterpart to check the credentials of those entering the workforce in this sector in recent months.<\/p>\n

“When there is unrest in a neighbouring country, repercussions will happen. Approximately 50 illegal Bangladeshis have been identified and pushed back by our police in the last couple of months. Similar operations are being done by Tripura Police and BSF also.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that security deployment in Karimganj district, through which the infiltration bids are happening, is being increased.<\/p>\n

He said, “There are no ‘political refugees’ coming, ‘economic refugees’ are trying to enter,” he claimed, stating that the infiltrators were trying to make their way to Tamil Nadu and other southern parts to work in the textile industry.<\/p>\n

“I will write to the Tamil Nadu chief minister to check the background of those who have joined the textile industry recently. I doubt that maybe we are detecting only 10 percent of those trying to enter illegally,” he said.<\/p>\n

The CM also asserted that the government will be tough and sent back any Bangladeshi national living with valid documents in the state but indulging in any anti-India campaign.<\/p>\n

In recent months, over 300 Bangladesh nationals who had illegally crossed the border have been arrested by various security agencies<\/a>, including the BSF in Tripura.<\/p>\n

A committee is constituted by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to monitor the current situation on the India-Bangladesh border, which spans 1,880 km with Tripura (856 km), Meghalaya (443 km), Mizoram (318 km) and Assam (263 km).
