Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Jagdambika Pal has asserted that infiltration into West Bengal will cease once the party comes to power in the state. His remarks come amid an ongoing debate on illegal immigration, particularly from Bangladesh, through the West Bengal border.
Speaking to ANI, Pal stated, "Union Home Minister Amit Shah has explicitly mentioned in the Lok Sabha that he has urged the West Bengal government nearly 10 times to provide 450 km of land for border fencing. However, the state government has not complied. This inaction has led to illegal immigrants entering the country through West Bengal, obtaining Aadhaar cards there, and subsequently moving to other parts of India."
