The Rohingya Crisis - J. Sai Deepak -

In this talk, the speaker argues that the influx of Rohingya Muslims is a second wave of illegal immigration from Bangladesh since the Rohingya Muslims are essentially Bengali Muslims and their worldview resonates with that of Bangladesh. To support his argument, the speaker exposes the nexus between Bangladeshi immigrants and Rohingya Muslims. He also informs that Rohingya Muslims not only support the two nation theory and the ideology of Pakistan but they wished to live in an autonomous Islamic region. In fact, the speaker says that the creation of an exclusive Islamic conclave is at the heart of the issue.
To bolster his case, the speaker draws parallels with the history of illegal immigration from Bangladesh into Assam that has been going on since 1966 and that has been facilitated by section 6(a) of the citizenship act. This illegal immigration, the speaker argues, has proved disastrous for the identity and culture of Assam. In the light of this experience, it is dangerous to let Rohingyas settle in India. Furthermore, the speaker reveals that India has no legal and international obligations to treat the Rohingyas as refugees.
