Illegal Bangladeshi immigrants
In November 2018, police arrested several Bangladeshi nationals in 2018–2020 for illegally staying in Dulhipur, seizing fake certificates and voter IDs during the operation.[2] The sweep also included the arrest of a local resident accused of assisting them. Authorities said the detainees had entered India without valid documents.[3] The arrests followed a tip-off and were part of a larger crackdown on undocumented immigrants in Uttar Pradesh.[4][5][6]
