The Gurugram Police have initiated an operation to identify and verify illegal immigrants in the area, following central guidelines. This drive has led to the identification of eight individuals suspected to be from Bangladesh.
Officials have rejected claims that Bengali-speaking migrant workers were being specifically targeted, stating that the operation aims only to verify immigration statuses. Suspects are temporarily placed in 'holding areas' until their documentation is confirmed.
The police continue to conduct such drives routinely, deporting those found overstaying or without valid documents. The outcomes of verifications are forwarded to relevant state officials for further actions.
