Illegal migration from Bangladesh to India has been a major concern. On June 24, a total of six Bangladesh nationals, who crossed over to India without valid documents, were arrested from two places in Tripura.
Acting on a tip-off, a railway police team laid a trap at Agartala railway station on Tuesday evening.
"Around 7 pm, the team arrested four suspected Bangladesh nationals from the railway station. After preliminary interrogation, the four people revealed they were from Bangladesh and were planning to go to Kolkata in search of jobs. Since they could not show any valid documents to travel to India, all of them were arrested", the Officer-in-Charge (OC), GRP station Agartala, Tapas Dad, told reporters.
