Muslims of Bangladesh.

I dont classify people on the basis of religion or customs rather I judge them as a human being. The case of Jammu Kashmir is different but Bengal cannot be in such state as Bangladesh can never demand bengal as their land. About kashmir, The british should have solved the problem before leaving but they did not. Why not to take people as humans and let them live on land, there shouldn't be your land or my land. Bangladesh was one a part of India and the people were and are our people who were once Indians so why to be alarming from our people.

Hi Ramesh, Its an open secret that the demography of most border districts of Bangladesh has changed due to continuous influx of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. It was all over the newspapers too, very recently. What I learnt is that it’s a two pronged approach. First, as we all know that just because Muslims were allowed to stay back in India post-partition, majority of them have relatives spread out over India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. So, some people come over on the pretext of visiting relatives or accompany friends of relative, stay back and either mingle with the mainland and join the terrorist network or majority of them just get a voter card and ration card and become an Indian citizen and stay back and add to our burden without contributing anything. Since the language and looks are similar to Indian Bengali Muslims, they don’t raise eyebrows. They only thing they do is fill the district madarsas and increase their own population. Secondly, there is cross border trade and livelihood. Cattle transfer is of course one of the most popular and lucrative trade practices across the border. Then there are the daily wage jobs…it was reported that daily many Bangladeshi labourers cross over the porous border, do govt jobs like gram sadak yojana and such, and take the money and walk back in the evening, to come back the next morning. The catch here are the middle-men and govt agencies who give out the money…according to Indian govt rules, if Rs. 100/- is to be paid daily to the workers, the Bangladeshi workers accept say Rs. 75/- (which is good enough for them) and the rest Rs. 25/- is swallowed by the agents on this side of the border. so you can well imagine that the Bangladeshi workers are more preferred than the Indian local workers. All this happens with the open knowledge and support of the state govt and centre, too! The WB govt has done all the wrong things imaginable and possible to woo Muslims and increase their population and its own vote bank, but if the Sachar Committee report is to be believed, Bengal Muslims are one of the worst off in the country. However, I don’t think WB will become the next J&K as yet…you see, Bengal is a very important link in the terror chain and I think the terrorists would like to keep WB safe to keep their communication route to Bangladesh open and accessible, like it is now. Rather, the border districts of WB might very soon resemble any Muslim majority city and town on India and Hindus might soon become a minority.

Actually Bangladesh is marred by factions/politics/tornadoes.Some stable Government should work firmly to get over this situation.

Hi rameshkumaar, Unrest usually causes problems wherever it is found. Governments and people everywhere has to learn that they cannot push problems aside. We must treat everyone as equals because we are indeed all one and must work together if there is to be peace. Blessings.

Absolutely correct! Why just W. Bengal, even Mumbai is flooded with illegal Bangladeshi immigrants. Add to that, our docile attitude, entertaining of fanatical and cunning politicians like Abu Azmi and the like who in turn favor those Bangladeshis just for the sake of the obvious! Even the Shiv-Sena which boasts of maverick pro-Hindutva agendas couldn't do much to get rid of them despite the fact that Mumbai was their political bastion for years together. Not to mention, the vile MNS who is only interested in driving out our very own poor Up-ites and Biharis; I never saw them acting tough against the Bangladeshis! And shame on the Marathis who vote for the MNS! (Btw, I'm myself a Maharashtrian, son of the soil) West Bengal is the land of renaissance and most of the original Hindu (Vedic) culture is reportedly found alive in its purer form in the state. Sigh! The left Government is apparently hellbent on converting that pious land into a graveyard! In fact it is said that the left Government issues illegal voting cards to the Bangladeshis for the lust of power! There have been many reports of the number of madrassas and mosques multiplying in the border areas. Though the official census indicates that the proportion of Muslims in the state is about 25%, obviously the number is much higher. I'd really dislike losing a great state like W.Bengal to the Bangladeshis. We can't forget what happened to Kashmir, can we? But it looks inevitable. Sorry for sounding pessimistic!
