Bangladesh Says None Of Its Citizens Illegally Immigrate Into India

Days after Indian border forces thwarted an "illegal immigration" attempt by some Bangladeshis, Bangladesh has denied the claims of any such actions. BGB Director-General Md Shafeenul Islam said that Bangladeshis visit India only with valid documents. He also stated that citizens of Bangladesh visit India just for medical purposes and for nothing else including jobs. However, the DG stated that smuggling across the India-Bangladesh border was a matter of concern.
