The Hynñiewtrep Youth Council (HYC) has urged the state government to activate its infiltration directorate in strategic locations to keep vigil on the movement of people in view of the current situation in neighbouring Bangladesh.
“We are apprehensive of the fact that illegal entry of people may take place from Bangladesh either through our porous borders or through other states sharing international border with Bangladesh, taking shelters as political refugees or asylum seekers or as illegal settlers,” HYC president Roy Kupar Synrem said.
He said the infiltration directorate and local police stations should work round the clock to coordinate with local authorities to strictly monitor movement of people in their jurisdiction.
