How about some guard dogs, mined DMZ, and shootings. All these so folks from BD do not go to the land of milk and honey !!

So when is Modi going to deport the 20 millions or whatever the number is now from India ?

If dug well Modi himself is a illegal immigrant, he knows that.

I wasnt saying to take our people. Just going with the flow of comments. Bangladeshis dont migrate to India for stay. They can go there for business purposes and victim of human trafficking. In fact Indians are migrating to BD.

These hatred for alleged Illegal Bangladeshis created by your politicians to gain votes. And to push Indian Muslims to BD.

Just build strong fence, electrify it and arrange large security. We dont care.

20% of Indian live on rearing cows. They will starve if the illegal trades are stopped.
really 20% you pulled that figure of out your bongodeshi backside?
You are a moron to say illegal trade is counted as economy.
THEY WILL SIMPLY DRINK milk and eat its milk products instead of starving to death.
Cow sustains a family for many days with milk itself.

So...give the following some thought.

You cited a link to establish that Indians in BD send home about USD 3.7 billion.

Now the same link claims that BD plays host to about 500,000 illegal indians (as opposed to your claims of "millions"). This figure of 500,000 is further substantiated by figures released by the Ministry of Home Affairs of Bangladesh.

Bangladesh-India economic relations

Now, given that remittances are USD 3.7 billion and the number of people is 500,000, it translates into per capita remittances of about USD 7,400. That's some 7-9 times that per capita income of BD.

And given that remittances are mostly savings, the per capita income of these illegal Indians would be a lot higher. These guys are virtually HNIs in BD that are probably investing, generating employment, providing value-added services, etc and also double up as high-spending consumers that support the local economy.

So even assuming that despite making all the dough, these guys didn't think it fit to renew their visa / passport, these are persons that BD should bend over backwards to accommodate. The figures suggest that BD can, literally, not afford to piss this community of Indians off.

And on the contrary, India does not want or need any more rickshaw pullers.

There is no official figure, 500,000 is just an estimate commented by someone. Some sources like this one (Bengali) estimates the number of illegal Indians in Bangladesh to be around 1.2 million. Also, according to the Indian Foreign Ministry, at least 20% of the 30 million Non resident Indians are living in South Asia.

Bangladesh has never had any data on foreigners living in the country but the sharp increase in the number of illegal immigrants in recent years have made the government to prepare a comprehensive data for the first time that has started this year.

Bangladesh people don't need to be scare by this so call the electrical fence, just allow Chinese sub to visit few days, that will scare the sh1t out of India and they will beg you to ask Chinese subs to leave with as astromical sum as compensation and promise BD with alot of aids to your people :D.
