Скачать или смотреть Aftermath of Detentions: Gurugram's Bengali Migrants Speak Up | The Quint

In the last few weeks, Bengali-speaking migrants in Gurugram faced police detentions on suspicion of being 'Bangladeshi' nationals. Hundreds of migrants from West Bengal have since returned home as the 'verification drive' to catch 'illegal immigrants' continues. What drives this exodus? Why were the people detained? The Quint spoke with migrant workers who faced detention last month like Jasimuddin Hossain, Mukul Hossain and others who reported being picked up from their homes and neighbourhoods and unduly profiled as 'Bangladeshi' before being locked up in 'detention centres' while the police 'verified' their documents.
