Slamming the BJP’s claim over infiltration from Bangladesh, former Meghalaya chief minister and chairman of North East Congress Coordination Committee (NECCC) Mukul Sangma on Friday said that over 82,000 infiltrators were deported during ten years of UPA’s tenure while the BJP government at the Centre in last five year could deport only 1,822 infiltrators.
Sangma said this while addressing a press conference in Guwahati and added that the BJP government has only been using rhetoric to win the elections.
“The BJP have no intention to deal with issue of illegal immigration. BJP is nothing but dream merchants. They say something ahead of the election and do something else when they are in power,” said Sangma.
