NEW DELHI, Mar 15: Describing the growing influx of Rohingyas and Bangladeshis in Jammu as a deep rooted conspiracy to change the demographic profile of the region, activists of JKNPP led by party Chairman, Harsh Dev Singh and State president Young Panthers Yashpal Kundal, staged a protest demonstration outside the Parliament, here today.
While raising slogans of ‘Chodho Hamara Jammu Pradesh, Rohingyas Jaao Bangladesh’,’ Rohingyas, Bangladeshis Go back’ the agitated protesters accused the BJP-PDP alliance of sheltering and settling the illegal foreign immigrants in Jammu province.
Later, a deputation led by Harsh Dev Singh submitted a detailed memorandum to the Union Minister for Home Affairs Raj Nath Singh seeking immediate deportation of Rohingyas and Bangladeshis from Jammu.
With established criminal antecedents of Rohingyas, Harsh Dev regretted that the BJP partnered dispensation was purportedly not taking the cognizance of the alarming situation for political interests which could explode and flare up tension in the entire Jammu province. Only recently the reporters and the cameramen from National media were brutally attacked by the Rohingyas and their supporters when the former had visited the locality to cover the story of latter’s illegal settlement in the periphery of Jammu city. The ugly episode had unveiled their criminal mind set and with their suspected involvement in the recent terror attack on Sunjuwan Army camp, the public outrage against them could be gauged from the ‘writing on the walls’ which appeared at several public places in the city seeking deportation of Rohingyas and B’deshis from the Dogra land.
These illegal immigrants described as ‘ticking time bombs’ by the security agencies had been found active in fuelling narco smuggling, human trafficking, child abductions, beggary, border crossing and other crimes. Moreover, there were reports of Rohingyas having been involved in the sacrilegious acts to flare up communal tension in Jammu city which had instigated the people to come on the roads to lodge their protest, NPP leader said.
Mohinder Singh, Vishav Singh, Brijenderpal Singh, Rampaul, Ajay, Arun Khajuria, Jolly Khosla and others also joined.
