Authorities in West Bengal have intensified a major crackdown on illegal Bangladeshi migrants after security agencies identified new infiltration routes along the India-Bangladesh border. Investigators revealed that migrants were allegedly entering through riverine stretches, fake identity networks, and porous border areas before moving to different Indian states. Police and border forces have conducted multiple raids across districts, detaining several suspected illegal migrants and agents accused of arranging forged Aadhaar and voter ID documents. Officials say the operation aims to dismantle organised trafficking and infiltration networks. The development has reignited political debate over border security, illegal migration, and identity verification in eastern India. (PC: India Today)
