NIA Executes Human Trafficking Crackdown Across 10 States

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has conducted a massive human trafficking crackdown covering 10 states of the country. These states include Tripura, Assam, West Bengal, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Haryana, Puducherry, Rajasthan, and Jammu and Kashmir, as per ANI. It was found that this trafficking network involved Bangladeshi and Rohingya immigrants who have been illegally residing in the country and running these rackets. NIA is currently looking to execute another big human trafficking crackdown across 40 other locations that are under their radar.
On the illegal immigration front, NIA has also made arrests of individuals creating fake Aadhar cards and other identity cards for these immigrants. Quite recently, the NIA had also arrested an individual in Tamil Nadu for trafficking individuals from Sri Lanka to different southern parts of the country. NIA thus has a major human trafficking crackdown planned in the near future, which has direct roots in the illegal Bangladeshi and Rohingya infiltration across Bharat. The Centre has taken an open stance against this unlawful infiltration as they back the passing of the National Registry of Citizenship or NRC in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
