BJP Opposes Transfer Of Enclaves To Bangladesh

BJP today expressed concern over the India-Bangladesh land boundary agreement signed during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit to Dhaka last month alleging it amounted to legitimising transfer of land “illegally occupied” by Bangaldesh and sought a discussion on it in Parliament.

The BJP national executive discussed the issue and passed a resolution against the agreement saying the Centre has “legitimised Bangladeshi encroachment of Indian territory”. “There should be no transfer of Indian territory to Bangladesh without all facts being placed on the table of Parliament and a proper discussion and ratification of this agreement be got done by it,” said senior BJP leader Chandan Mitra.
