Bangladesh Migrants : A Threat to India is an effort made by depicting real problems faced in Indo-Bangladesh Border. The biggest problem India is facing is on the country’s economy and security due to continuous migration from Bangladesh from British period till today for various factors. The rising population, non-availability of land, unemployment including weak currency, floods and cyclones, push Bangladeshis to India for a better economic opportunity, good education and various Islamic interests. The large presence of about six crores of illegal Bangladeshi migrants have posed maximum threat to India’s security. India has failed to deal with the problem of migration which had involved political interests. The author in his book has suggested various measures with a wealth of information which will open the eyes of political leaders to understand the gravity of demographic changes noticed in Indian border states.
