Kolkata Police arrested former Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) leader Salim Matabbar from a hotel on November 29, 2024, for living in India on fake documents. Meanwhile, four Bangladeshi nationals were arrested in Nadia for illegal entry. Amid rising tensions, J.N. Ray Hospital in Kolkata announced it would no longer treat Bangladeshi patients, citing historical grievances. The West Bengal Medical Council opposed this, emphasizing the need for non-discriminatory treatment. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee declined to comment on the matter, saying it’s a national issue, while BJP leader Dilip Ghosh criticized her silence on Bangladesh-related issues.
