39 B'desh nationals living illegally in Hisar, held
According to police officials, the Bangladeshis had entered India illegally and were working at the brick kiln for the last one month. Police officials added that these people will be sent to a detention centre in Delhi.
Hansi superintendent of police (SP) Amit Yashvardhan said that the Sadar police received information about Bangladeshi nationals working at a brick kiln and police reached there and asked them to show their documents.
'Legal action will be initiated after checking all documents. The brick kiln owner told the cops that these workers came for work from Rajasthan,' the SP added.
Brick kiln owner Sandeep Kumar said that five families came from Rajasthan at his brick kiln for work nearly a month ago.
'Most of them were carrying aadhar cards issued in West Bengal. I brought them to work from a brick kiln in Rajasthan. As far as I know they have not indulged in any illegal activity here and I don't know about their past,' he added.
According to police officials, one family came to India in 2008 and the other two families in 2021 and they have been working at brick-kilns.
On April 25, as many as 15 Pakistani Hindu nationals from Balsamand village in Hisar district, who had been living in Haryana for the past nine months without valid visas, were taken to a Pakistani camp in New Delhi for security reasons.
Moreover, 14 illegal Bangladesh nationals were arrested by the police from a brick kiln in Mahendergarh earlier too and their aadhar cards were found to be fake.
On January 23, Rewari police and intelligence department arrested 17 Bangladeshis, including five children, from a brick kiln at Saharanwas village. During the probe, they had told the police that they had illegally entered India by crossing the border nearly 15 years ago and were working at the brick kiln.

Pakistan back to its dirty tricks after Op Sindoor pause, restarts drone drug drops deeper into Punjab
ANI BSF recovers drone, heroin and opium in separate operations in Punjab. After remaining largely inactive following Operation Sindoor, Pakistani drug smugglers have resumed cross-border activity, now employing more powerful drones capable of evading Border Security Force (BSF) detection. These upgraded drones are flying deeper into Indian territory with increased accuracy, presenting renewed challenges for border security. 'Post Op Sindoor, there was a temporary lull in cross-border drone intrusions. However, these activities have now resumed with greater precision as Pakistani smugglers are deploying drones that penetrate deeper into Indian territory to drop drugs, arms and ammunition,' BSF Deputy Inspector General AK Vidyarthi was quoted by TOI. Sources reported to TOI that earlier drone drops were typically within one kilometre of the international border. Recently, drones have been observed flying 2 to 2.5 kilometres or more inside Indian territory, significantly increasing the risk zone. To avoid detection near the border, drone pilots fly at higher altitudes before descending into Indian airspace. Once inside, they follow zigzag routes to evade radar and surveillance. Drones are sometimes deliberately crashed after deliveries to avoid retrieval, sources told TOI. 'During Op Sindoor, priorities were broader — it wasn't just about curbing cross-border smuggling but more about preventing drone and missile attacks,' a source was reported by TOI as saying. The decline in smuggling then was partly due to the lack of local operatives on the Indian side to retrieve consignments. According to TOI, Pakistani smugglers have upgraded to more advanced Chinese drones, while India's anti-drone systems remain limited. Detection relies mainly on sound or visual spotting, prompting anti-drone teams to intervene. Effective interceptors, capable of tracking drone details in real time, are not yet widely deployed. India Following Operation Sindoor, intensified BSF patrolling has made near-border drops difficult. Smugglers now send drones deeper into Indian territory, placing receivers farther from patrols and reducing chances of detection. (With inputs from TOI)
