Suspense crime, Digital Desk : Delhi Police rounded up 154 Bangladeshi migrants in Mahendra Park on June 6. Officers spent the day checking documents and quickly realized nearly every adult was a citizen of Bangladesh living here without papers. North-West DCP Bhisham Singh later briefed ANI on the operation.
After the paperwork was squared away, the group was put on the next flight out of India. Police said the speedy deportation shows a renewed crackdown on illegal crossings.
Roughly a month earlier, on May 29, Delhi immigration teams sent another spike of around 160 undocumented migrants out through Hindon airbase. Those passengers were trucked to Tripura before being escorted overland to the Bangladesh border. Authorities have begun treating that route as a routine express lane for returnees.
Heightened jitters after attacks like the one in Pahalgam persuaded commanders to lift surveillance across the capital. In recent months police claim they have tracked down and deported about 470 Bangladesh nationals living off-the-books in Delhi.
Fewer People, More Questions
May 27 sounded ordinary until patrols in South West Delhi rounded up 88 migrants from Bangladesh. The sweep lasted ten days and turned up counterfeit Aadhaar cards beside genuine residency paperwork that linked each individual back to Dhaka.
Deportation paperwork now sits on the FRROs desk, signed and stamped the way the rules insist. Lawyers will argue and consuls will nod, but the clock is already ticking toward the next flight.
Precincts Under Spotlight
DCP Surendra Chaudhary keeps reminding his men that routine beats are no longer routine. He wants plain-clothes officers in markets, on footbridges, even beside late-night bus stops.
Reports from shopkeepers and taxi drivers feed the search, turning idle gossip into leads. Without that local gossip, most raids stall before they start.
Paper-trail Hunters
Phony Aadhaar numbers do not appear in a vacuum; someone somewhere prints them. Investigators are chasing the plates, the printers, even the couriers who drop the cards in backpack shops across the city.
Cut the supply of false papers and a chunk of illegal residency wilters overnight. Fake IDs may be easy to forge, but the networks behind them-those are usually easy to break.
