Mizoram district administrator urges coordinated effort to prevent illegal migrants

Aizawl, Apr 2 (UNI) Lunglei Deputy Commissioner Navneet Mann has called for a concerted effort by village councils and civil society groups to prevent refugees and illegal migrants from Myanmar and Bangladesh from acquiring documents meant exclusively for Indian citizens.
Speaking at a meeting on Wednesday attended by officials of the district administration, representatives of the Lunglei District Village Council (VC)/Local Council (LC) Association, and the Lunglei Sub-Headquarters Young Mizo Association (YMA), Mann stressed the need for a systematic approach to curb the issuance of voter ID cards, Aadhaar cards, birth certificates, and ration cards to non-citizens.
She pointed out that some refugees and illegal migrants have attempted to obtain such documents, warning that granting them Indian citizenship papers would deprive genuine citizens of their rightful entitlements.
