"Infiltrators 'trapping' tribal women of Jharkhand": BJP's Naveen Subhash
Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], November 15 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Naveen Subhash alleged that the tribal women in Jharkhand have been targeted by infiltrators adding that the state has become a "hub of terrorist activities."
Speaking to ANI on Thursday, Subash said, "Jharkhand is a very fertile land. It's called the land of forests and many tribal people are living there and almost 40 per cent of the population of almost 4.8 crores are below the poverty level and the women have been targeted by infiltrators, especially from Bangladesh, Rohingyas, and it has become a hub for the terrorist activities."
"They (Bangladeshi infiltrators) are trapping the innocent women, tribal women especially because tribal happens to be very pretty, so they are trying to influence them by way of giving some cash and some incentives and then getting married. Not only that, they're taking the land from the tribals," he added.
Earlier this month, Union Home Minister Amit Shah stated that if the BJP came to power, they would eliminate the infiltrators from the state and enact a law to return the encroached land to the tribals.

Addressing an election campaign in Jharkhand, Amit Shah said, "Hemant Soren is not bothered to build industries in Jharkhand or create electricity. There are mines of aluminium and iron ore but Hemant Soren is not bothered that they are manufactured here. He is only concerned about allowing the infiltrators to enter Jharkhand."
"These infiltrators enter Jharkhand and marry innocent local girls for the second time, third time, and encroach on their lands. These infiltrators who have encroached on the lands of innocent tribal women would be thrown out of the state," he said.
