Ahmedabad-Surat crackdown: Over 457 Bangladeshi infiltrators detained with fake documents

In a massive crackdown on illegal immigration, Gujarat Police have detained more than 457 Bangladeshi nationals in Ahmedabad alone for residing in India with forged documents. According to initial investigations, these individuals had allegedly obtained fake identity papers to settle unlawfully. Simultaneously, a similar operation in Surat led to the detention of 132 more Bangladeshi citizens living illegally. The raids were conducted based on intelligence inputs, and authorities have recovered numerous counterfeit documents, including Aadhaar cards and ration cards. Law enforcement agencies are now verifying their networks and how these individuals managed to acquire such papers. The state police have also begun a deeper investigation into the facilitators behind these forgeries, raising questions about cross-border infiltration, security loopholes, and internal document corruption. These operations reflect a growing concern over illegal stay and a tightening stance by the government on infiltrators operating under false identities.
