POBNEWS24, Dhaka, May 19, 2022: Bangladesh is worried about the influx of Rohingyas from India to Bangladesh. Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen will discuss the issue with India.
Today (May 19), the Foreign Minister said, “Unfortunately, many Rohingyas are moving to Bangladesh. The Rohingyas went to India in 2012 and were in different parts of the country. Now they have heard that when they come to Bangladesh, they will get very good food and drink. ‘
“We will tell India that such accidents are happening,” he said, adding that Rohingyas were trying to enter Bangladesh in droves.
Asked how many have come so far, the foreign minister said, “Several have arrived. Of these, we have caught 18 people and often caught them doing something. ‘
He said that Rohingyas were trying to enter Bangladesh through various brokers of the two countries and the most alarming thing was that they were also trying to enter from places where there were barbed wire fences.
Some Rohingyas have been detained in Bangladesh and if they want to know why they are coming to Bangladesh, they say that Bangladesh is providing good food and drink. They are in a lot of trouble in India. That is why they are coming to Bangladesh, said Abdul Momen.
“The Rohingyas in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, have been informed that the UN is giving them good food here,” he said.
