Odisha intelligence wing expresses surprise over lack info on Bangladesh migrants

The intelligence wing of Odisha police has taken strong exception to the information of Jagatsinghpur district being free of Bangladesh migrants and sought a quick verification on the crucial piece of information.

The Special Branch expressed surprise over ‘lack of information’ on 1,112 undocumented Bangladeshi migrants who were reported to be staying in district in 2008. In recent letter, Additional District Magistrate of Jagatsinghpur district had indicated that no Bangladeshi infiltrator was staying illegally in the district.

The special branch on Tuesday reported that the Jagatsinghpur district administration was contradicting its own 2008 report in which it was mentioned about 1112 Bangladeshi nationals residing in Jagatsinghpur.
