"Detention Without Due Process": West Bengal's Troubling New Policy The BJP government in West Bengal has introduced a new policy aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration, which involves setting up "holding centres" in all 23 districts to detain and deport Bangladeshi, Rohingya, and other immigrants.
This move marks a significant shift from the previous Mamata Banerjee led Trinamool Congress (TMC) government's stance, which had refused to implement similar Union home ministry guidelines.
The BJP's decision raises serious concerns about due process and the rights of immigrants in West Bengal.
