The Petition further seeks direction to  the Central and State Governments to amend the respective laws to make illegal immigration and infiltration ,a cognizable non-bailable and non-compoundable offence and  to declare the making of forged/fabricated PAN Card ,AADHAR Cards ,Passport ,Ration Cards and Voter Cards and such other documents ,a non-bailable ,non-compoundable and cognizable offense and amend the respective laws accordingly and for such  other reliefs.

The state government humbly submitted in the revised affidavit that “The Karnataka State Police have not housed rohingyas in any camp or detention center within its jurisdiction. However, 126 rohingyas have been identified in Karnataka State. The list of rohingya refugees staying in Bangalore city are enclosed.”

Karnataka government had earlier asked the Supreme Court to dismiss Upadhyay’s plea terming it  as devoid of merit and not maintainable in law.

A petition filed in the Supreme Court has sought directions to the Central and the State Government to detect, detain and deport illegal Rohingya and Bangladeshi infiltrators from West Bengal within one year.

The plea has been filed by Human and Civil Right Activist, Sangita Chakraborty referring to the incident, “when Election Result of Bengal Assembly election was declared and Rohingya-Bangladeshi infiltrators started beating, killing, heckling, looting, kidnapping, raping, burning the houses of Hindus who voted to BJP.”

The petitioner has further sought direction from the Centre and State to identify and invoke NSA against government employees, police personals and security forces, who have links with Infiltration Mafias and help Rohingyas-Bangladeshis to infiltrate in West Bengal and confiscate their cent per cent disproportionate assets.

“The injury caused to people is extremely large because Two Crore Rohingya-Bangladeshi infiltrators have not only changed the demography of Bengal but are the biggest threat to rule of law and internal security, particularly after assembly election,” the plea added.

The petitioner has also alleged that Pakistan’s ISI is active in Bangladesh and Myanmar and supporting the military movement while drawing the attention of the Court towards the dangerous consequences of large-scale infiltrations from Bangladesh-Myanmar for the Nation as a whole.
