India Pushes Back 2,000+ Illegal Immigrants to Bangladesh Since Operation Sindoor

Indian security forces have pushed back more than 2,000 illegal immigrants into Bangladesh following the launch of Operation Sindoor. Officials confirmed that this extensive operation aims to strengthen border control and prevent unauthorized entry into Indian territory.

Authorities stated that they initiated the crackdown after increased intelligence inputs suggested a surge in illegal cross-border movement. The Border Security Force (BSF), in coordination with local law enforcement agencies, launched intensive surveillance and patrolling activities along the India-Bangladesh border.

The BSF has ramped up the deployment of personnel, night-vision equipment, and drone surveillance to track illegal entries. “We have identified vulnerable crossing points and sealed them off,” a senior BSF officer said. “Our priority is to ensure that no unauthorized person can enter the country.”

According to officials, the operation doesn’t target any specific community but solely focuses on preventing illegal immigration. Many of the individuals caught lacked valid identification or travel documents and admitted to crossing the border in search of work.
