Crackdown on Illegal Immigration Shifts Racket South

Crackdown on Illegal Immigration Shifts Racket South

There's a big effort to stop people from entering India illegally, especially in West Bengal and Assam.

The people who help these immigrants, called touts, are now moving them to other parts of India, like the southern states, where it's harder to catch them.

The police and other security groups are working to find and send these immigrants back to their home countries.

They think a group from Pakistan called ISI is helping fund and plan this.

It's making the job of the security agencies harder because the touts are spreading the problem all over India.
