Over the past few weeks, the Bengal Chief Minister has been raising a hue and cry over the crackdowns on Bangladeshi Muslims and Rohingyas launched in other states. She has tried to cleverly portray that Bengalis are being targeted in other states.

But, as so often happens, CM Banerjee is wrong. And she knows it. It is not Bengalis, but Bangladeshi Muslims, who are being targeted in states like Odisha, Assam, Maharashtra, Haryana, Delhi, and Chhattisgarh. And rightly so, because they have no legal right to reside in Bharat.
