On Thursday, Assam police nabbed six Bangladeshi nationals in the Karimganj district. Tarique Anowar, Dayal Mall, Monu Mall, Shajahan Mia, Jainab Sapuria, and Khalimur Mall were apprehended after intelligence information indicated their illicit entry into India. The arrest occurred in Karimganj, a district with a porous border with Bangladesh and a history of difficulty with cross-border transit. Law enforcement officials verified that the detainees were interrogated before being quickly deported to Bangladesh. Their expulsion was carried out in collaboration with border security officials to guarantee a smooth and safe transition across the international border.
Illegal infiltration is a major concern in Assam, which has traditionally had cultural and physical ties with neighboring Bangladesh. Authorities in Assam have been striving to strengthen border security measures, emphasizing the need of detection and expulsion for regional stability. Karimganj’s location renders it especially vulnerable to such attacks, necessitating careful border patrol and strong intelligence networks. This recent move by the Assam Police demonstrates the state’s commitment to combating cross-border infiltration and safeguarding its boundaries. The deportation of these six persons serves as a reminder of the persistent issues posed by illegal immigration, as well as Assam’s continuous commitment to combating it by lawful and timely measures.
