The Indian court wants to know why it is delayed to send illegal Bangladeshi immigrants back to the country. The Supreme Court asked the country's central and West Bengal government on Thursday. The court said it was a threat to the security of the country. Such relaxation may not have been tolerated in any other country.
Additional Attorney General Aishwarya Bhati, who is present on behalf of the center, is Justice J. B. Pardiwala asks, 'How many reforms will you build in the country to keep them? How many days will these people be kept in the revision?
The judge said, “Those who are detained in jail as illegal immigrants are provided shelter and medical assistance. If they were in another country, he might have died so long. '
Justice J. said this in a petition of 20. B. Pardiwala and Justice R. This bench of Mahadevan. The petition highlighted the plight of Bangladeshi immigrants, saying that the immigrants, who were imprisoned illegally to enter India, were imprisoned in the West Bengal jail despite being sentenced.
Maja Daruwala, chief of the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative, wrote a letter to the then Chief Justice of the Calcutta High Court about the situation of these illegal immigrants. Darwala's appeal was later transferred to the Supreme Court, as the Supreme Court was then trial on illegal immigrants in other states.
On the last day of the hearing last Tuesday, the West Bengal government's lawyer said that the delay in the refund of the migrants was one of the reasons for proper scrutiny and confirmation of immigrants from the government of Bangladesh.
Justice Pardiwala said, “When an immigrant is arrested and convicted according to foreign law, then what does the neighboring country need to provide information about his nationality?”
Additional Attorney General Aishwarya Bhatti on behalf of the Center said the issues were delayed due to the border complexity of the two countries. The government is trying to finish the process as soon as possible.
Bench commented after the statement of Bhati: 'It also has security issues …'
Lawyer Bhrinda Grover argued on behalf of the NGO, saying that those who have been sentenced to illegal immigrants have been in violation of their basic rights, especially Article 21 (the right of life and freedom).
He also said that another bench of the Supreme Court had directed the Assam government to keep the illegal immigrants in shelter.
In the previous hearing, the bench mentioned that reading Section 2 (V) of the Foreignrs Act can be understood that the full process of sending the return should be completed within 7 days. Why this section 2 (V) is not being strictly followed.
According to the West Bengal government record, 5 Bangladeshi who were detained in jail till February 7, 2007. About 5 of them (120 men and 3 women) have been released after being sentenced and are waiting to return to Bangladesh.
