Check influx of illegal immigrants into J-K: State VHP prez

The influx of illegal immigrants in Jammu and Kashmir has become an issue of grave concern, Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has claimed and cited the alleged presence of almost 1.5 lakh Bangladeshis in Jammu to demand steps by the state government to check the problem.
"People from (other) countries are freely coming into the state. They have occupied both government and private land and have settled down in Jammu," VHP state president Ramakant Dubey said.
Wondering how these foreign nationals could have entered J-K unchecked, Dubey alleged that a large number of people from Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) had illegally settled down in Jammu.

"Nearly 1.5 lakh Bangladeshis and about 12,000 people from Myanmar are currently living in Jammu and its vicinity. If the trend continues, it will have serious repercussions for the people of Jammu and the state," Dubey said.
He was also critical of J-K government's rehabilitation policy for militants wanting to return to the state from across the border.
"Nearly 25 years back, these people crossed the fence, settled down there (in PoK)... Married and had children.
"Now they want to return... Is there any way for the government to confirm that those accompanying a particular person are his real family members?" Dubey asked.
