Study Reveals 70% of Illegal Bangladeshi Immigrants in Mumbai Have Voter IDs

A new study found that many people from Bangladesh and Myanmar who live in Mumbai without proper papers have voter IDs.

These people, mostly men and Muslims, are putting a lot of pressure on the city's housing, transportation, and healthcare systems.

They often live in crowded areas with poor infrastructure, which can cause health problems and environmental issues.

The study also found that these migrants are taking jobs that pay low wages, which affects the local workers.

Politically, some parties are helping these migrants get housing and documents, which could affect the upcoming elections.

Experts say this issue is more about society and culture than politics.
