NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India will
launch a drive this year to deport more than 20 million illegal
immigrants from Bangladesh because they pose a serious security
threat, the home ministry said on Tuesday.
The decision was taken at an internal security meeting of
state police chiefs, senior state bureaucrats and federal
security officials who agreed to conduct the drive between
April and June.
"The presence of a large number of illegal foreign immigrants,
particularly from Bangladesh, poses a serious threat to the
internal security and needs to be tackled with utmost urgency
and seriousness that it deserves," a statement from the
ministry said.
The home ministry statement did not give details of why illegal
immigrants from its eastern neighbour were considered a security
threat.
Indian security agencies have in the past accused illegal
Bangladeshi immigrants -- most of them Muslims -- of committing
crimes, and say some of them work for Pakistan's Inter-Services
Intelligence spy agency.
