Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has asked police officials to work hard and deport illegal migrants.
CM Yogi Adityanath has directed them to ‘identify, verify and deport’ any illegal ‘foreign nationals’ living in Uttar Pradesh.
The move is in line with an earlier statement of Yogi Adityanath where he described the Rohingyas as “intruders and not refugees.”
Here are the tweets from the office of Yogi Adityanath led government:
प्रदेश में अवैध रूप से निवास करने वाले विदेशी नागरिकों को प्रदेशव्यापी सर्वे कराकर उन्हें बाहर भेजा जाए: #UPCM श्री #YogiAdityanath

Speaking to news agency ANI in September this year, Yogi Adityanath had said “the Indian government has cleared its status on Rohingyas. Rohingyas from Myanmar in India are not refugees, they are the intruders. This is very condemnable and sad that some people are showing concern towards them, as in Myanmar many innocent Hindus were killed brutally, and it was also found that they (Rohingyas) have a link with terrorist organizations.”

Central government has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court to deport 40,000 Rohingya Muslims while telling the court that the illegal refugees will have an adverse effect on the rights of Indian citizens and will be a threat to national security.
The Centre had told the Rajya Sabha that the illegal Rohingya population in India is 40,000, which is a four-time jump from two years ago when the population was a mere 10,500.
According to the Home Ministry, Rohingyas are mostly settled in Jammu and Kashmir, Haryana, Delhi, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Andra Pradesh and Manipur.
As per the Jammu and Kashmir government’s estimate, Rohingya Muslims are numbered at around 5,700 but it could go up to 10,000.
Rohingyas are Bengali speaking Muslims who claim that they are persecuted under the Buddhist state of Myanmar and they have been waging an armed struggle under the Militant group ARSA. ARSA has been accused by Myanmar of having undertaken genocide of its minority Hindu community which the militant group has failed to deny with proofs ringing alarm bells in India.
