The Assam government, under Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, intensifies its campaign against illegal immigration by deporting 18 Bangladeshi infiltrators. This move is part of a broader effort to ensure that illegal immigrants do not return to the state.

In a post on X, Sarma addressed public feedback on these efforts, assuring that protocol-driven measures are being rigorously applied. However, he refrained from disclosing the exact district these individuals were deported from.

Details shared on social media indicate a consistent pushback against illegal immigrants. Earlier, 13 infiltrators were sent back, amidst a robust initiative across districts such as Sribhumi, Cachar, Dhubri, and South Salmara-Mankachar, which share a significant border with Bangladesh. To date, over 450 suspected infiltrators have been deported.
