Of the Land, for the Land
Meghalaya has for many years now a check post at Jorabat, on the Assam-Meghalaya border, where police routinely picks suspected illegals from interstate buses. “It’s a deterrent,” says Meghalaya IG (special branch) Dr SB Singh. And how bad is the situation in Meghalaya? “It’s much more comfortable than in Assam,” says Singh. Expectedly, the state is now upset with Assam because of its failure on the Bangladeshi front. “We have check posts on every road coming into the state,” says Lyngdoh. “However, given the fact that we have a border dispute with Assam, we do not have a border so to speak with the state in many forest areas, which, therefore, are beyond our control. Once our border is sorted out, we will handle the problem there as well.” As a lot of illegals allegedly get their identity papers made in Assam, Lyngdoh said that such papers would not be accepted in Meghalaya.
Fearing a situation such as Assam, where illegal Bangladeshi nationals now dominate a number of districts, groups like Hynniewtrep Achik National Movement (HANM) and the Meghalaya Progressive Alliance (MPA) have been demanding stringent measures against Bangladeshi illegals in that state.
The situation in Assam, meanwhile, continues to be grim. There are around six million illegal Bangladeshis. The Gauhati HC had earlier this year said that “Bangladeshis had become kingmakers in Assam”, and stressed on the need for a “strong political will” to remedy the situation. Some 855 students had died in the Assam Agitation in the 1970s and ‘80s, a movement aimed at forcing the government to identify and deport illegals. The situation, however, shows no sign of improvement even after the SC scrapped the controversial Illegal Migrants (Determination by Tribunals) Act, 1983, a piece of legislation that was tailor-made to protect the illegal Bangladeshis in Assam.
Arunachal Pradesh, on the other hand, seems to gain immensely from the inner line permit provision that it has, being a sensitive border state, a provision that was often seen as an obstacle in the state’s development. Here too, however, the political will is striking compared to the scenario in Assam, which through full page advertisements declared that hundreds of alleged Bangladeshis, who had been pushed out of Arunachal and Nagaland a few months ago, were in reality Indian citizens, something that should have left to the judiciary to determine. “So far as our government is concerned,” said Tsering Gyurme, parliamentary secretary and principal adviser to Arunachal Pradesh CM Dorjee Khandu, ”the inner line permit does not allow even Indians to settle in our state. So there is no question of outsiders. We even insist on Arunachalis travelling out of the state to carry identity papers.” There is an increase in the number of illegal Bangladeshis now working in Itanagar. And what of the fact that the Tarun Gogoi government had declared that the suspected illegals pushed out of Arunachal were Indians? “That’s Gogoi’s problem,” Gyurme told TSI. All Bangladeshis who were working in Arunachal Pradesh had been identified and “could be shunted out anytime”, he added. “This is not like Assam where people can come in anytime, settle and get permanent resident certificates.”
