ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
kvakutty
Immigration is no new phenomenon. People from poorer nations migrate to richer nations in search of employment and livelihood. Unsettled and warlike conditions also compel people to migrate to safer nations.
Number of illegal immigrants may be even more than legal ones. It is difficult to have correct or up to date statistics.
Migration is an international problem. No nation can tackle this alone without the continued cooperation from other nations and the UN.
In a small nation like Italy it is stated that nearly 11,000 people illegally migrated to Italy in the first half of 2008, twice as many as that came in the same period in 2007. The number of illegal immigrants in Italy is estimated at 6,50,000 .From North Africa they travel in un-seaworthy boats risking lives.
Each nation has its problem. For India the problem is of much higher magnitude. With porous borders it is not easy.
A large number of illegal immigrants can strain the economy. But the bigger worry is that along with the immigrants, terrorism can also be imported. This is a great risk for which, it would appear, India has not geared up adequately. It has been proved time and again that India is exposed to terrorism at frequent intervals. The nation looks on helplessly every time this happens.

My dear KVA Kutty sir,
Thanks for the vigilance and fore warned message as our vast borders in the east has been infitrated with dense illegal immigrants from Bangla desh in the past few years to a great extent.
They posed serious threat to our nations security and reports do confirm that many of those migrants settled down hear throughout India and some of them are able to manage the passport, voter I.D cards and Ration cards.
Even yesterday Supreme Court issued strict warnings to the ministry on a case of Bangladesi Illegal Migrant's possession of Ration cards, voter cards etc.,
It is well known secret that Tripura, West bengal are more supportive for these bangladesh illegal migrants as they form a chunk of vote base.
The cheap labour and unemployments for meanial jobs flourish this migrants from the industry too.
When we look in to terrorist acts, there were links to these elements.
Any nation cannot cope up with large number of Illegal Migrants & the neccessities to curb their infiltrations need more actions now.
The entire belt of NE is the worst sufferers from these Bangladesh Illegal Migrants.
