KOLKATA: A division bench of the Calcutta High Court, on Wednesday, sought clarification from the Union government on why the process of identification of illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators started nationally and in all the states at the same time.
The division bench of Justice Tapabrata Chakraborty and Justice Reetobrata Kumar Mitra also questioned why the month of June this year was chosen for the simultaneous beginning of the process of identification of the illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators in all Indian states.
The division bench also asked the Union government to clarify the allegations that Bengali-speaking people were indiscriminately targeted in the process of identification of the illegal Bangladeshi infiltrators.
