Infiltration along Border The Land Boundary Agreement(LBA) has been signed between India and Bangladesh to resolve the outstanding land boundary issues. The agreement is at implementation stage and it is premature to assess the effect of LBA on infiltration from Bangladesh. Indian Citizenship has been granted to 14,864 persons of erstwhile Bangladeshi enclaves who have shown their intention to become Indian Citizens. There is no case pending for grant of Indian citizenship to those who opted for Indian citizenship during the Joint Survey conducted in July, 2015. Further, the process of inclusion of all 14,864 dwellers of erstwhile 51 Bangladeshi enclaves in the National Population Register (NPR) has been completed on 31.10.2015. consequently the process of issuance of Aadhar Cards, Ration Cards etc. for enclave dwellers has been initiated. This was stated by Minister of State in the Ministry of Home Affairs Shri Kiren Rijiju in Lok Sabha today in a written reply to a question by Shri Kunwar Pushpendra Singh Chandel. .
