Ranchi: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on Sunday expressed apprehension that a large number of Bangladeshis could make into the census list if they were not identified and deported.

"Identify and deport Bangladeshis back to their country. Even the court has ordered (it), but no action is being taken...Otherwise they would lay claims as citizens of our country," Bhagwat said while addressing an RSS function here.

"They (Bangladeshis) are taking our food...now Bangalesh is claiming 300 villages on our border," he claimed.

About country's neighbours, he said "China is staring at Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh" while Pakistan is 'openly hostile' towards India. "This should make the nation emerge much stronger so that no other country can wink at us," he said.

In an indirect reference to left-wing extremism, the RSS ideologue said, "they talk gun and we offer talks ...and unemployed youth have become fodder to them (extremists)."

I saw a BBC article that certain minorities belonging to Burma were striped off their nationality and driven out. Such people managed to cross the river into Bangladesh where they are treated as unwanted and being driven back to Burma. These people are living in hell. International community is a passive witness to this inhuman drama. Same Bangladeshis are staying in India in droves and causing security risks to India. Indian Government must take strong steps in consultation with Bangladesh government to repatriate these illegal people back to that country.

Mr Bhagwat should know that staying illegaly and counting for the purpose of census are two different issues.Everyone in the country living at the time of census has to be counted to know the present population . I agree with Mr Bhagwat that millions of Bengladeshis are living in our country and our governments including the BJP govt. at the center backed by RSS have done little to solve this problem.
