New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday slammed the Trinamool Congress, saying Bangladeshi infiltrators or Rohingyas enter India through West Bengal and fencing work of 450 km is pending because the state government is not giving land for it.
Replying to the debate in Lok Sabha on the Immigration and Foreigners Bill, 2025, which was later passed by the House, Amit Shah also expressed confidence that the BJP will win next year’s assembly polls in West Bengal.
He alleged that Aadhar cards are issued to illegal migrants from Bangladesh in a district of West Bengal and they then travel to other parts of the country.
Amit Shah also targeted Congress on the issue of illegal migration in the country.
“Whether Bangladeshi infiltrators or Rohingyas, earlier they used to enter India through Assam when Congress was in power. Now they enter India through West Bengal where Trinamool Congress is in power. Who issues them Aadhaar cards, citizenship?… All the Bangladeshis who have been caught have Aadhaar cards from 24 Parganas district. You (TMC) issue Aadhaar cards and they come to Delhi with voter cards… In 2026, the BJP government will be formed in West Bengal and we will put an end to this,” he said.
He said fencing work of 450 km is pending because the West Bengal government is not giving land for it.
“Whenever the process of fencing is done, the ruling party workers indulge in hooliganism and religious sloganeering. The fencing work of 450 km of border has not been completed because the West Bengal government is showing mercy to the infiltrators…our border with Bangladesh is 2216 km. Out of that, 1653 km has been fenced. The road near the fence has also been built and checkposts have also been built. Of the remaining 563 km, there cannot be fencing on 112 km due to difficult terrain such rivers, drains and hills. Fencing on 450 km is pending as Bengal government does not give land… seven meetings have been held,” he added.
