追加: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]All illegal nationals who are staying in India, they will be dealt as per law. We have referred 2,680 cases or more than 2,680 cases to the Bangladeshi side. Once this nationality verification is done, then we'll be in a position to deport these people. Verification is pending for more than 5 years or so, and it is our expectation that we will receive uh an early response from Bangladesh on this particular issue.

[00:00:31]>> My question is about illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.

[00:00:35]Uh how they are being identified and what is the process of sending them back to Bangladesh because in Assam this process is going very fast.

[00:00:45]>> All illegal nationals who are staying in India, they will be dealt as per law.

Once this nationality verification is done, then we'll be in a position to deport these people, these nationals of Bangladesh.

[00:01:23]Uh in many cases I had told you earlier that these uh verification is pending for more than 5 years or so, and it is our expectation that we will receive uh an early response from Bangladesh on this particular issue so that the bilateral arrangement that we have between both the countries, based on that, these people who are staying here, they can be sent back to or deported back to Bangladesh. There was a question regarding Myanmar. This is uh Myanmar's president's first visit and first visit uh to India in his official capacity right now. Uh This is as we have clarified or as we have informed you Myanmar is a neighbor.
