Physical barriers rarely work,
especially if they are not patrolled.

Another trumped up mess, isolationism.

Any Fence proposal of Democrats or Wall proposal of Republicans is just a colossal waste of resources. Let the savings be used to stop Yellowstone Super-volcano from exploding.

If you're such a whizz bang analyst of illegal alien immigration solutions in America, why don't you take your solutions to your home country and tell Indians how to solve your illegal alien immigration problems?

Then...you can get back to us here in America about how to solve our illegal alien invasion.

"India's Minister of State for Home Mullappally Ramachandran said last summer that almost 1.4-million illegal Bangladeshis have migrated to India over the past decade alone.

Ramachandran described the illegal immigration from Bangladesh as a big problem and that the government is dealing with it.

The rhetoric against illegal Bangladeshi immigration in India is strikingly similar to what right-wing American politicians say about illegal Mexican immigrants –claiming they pose a threat to the economy and very identity of the U.S.

Moreover, some Indian lawmakers allege that many Bangladeshi immigrants also pose a dire threat to India through criminal activity and terrorism."

Indians scholars have also expressed their outrage over unrestricted immigration from Bangladesh.

Part of Amra Bangali's premise is that non-Bengalis (as well as illegal immigrants from Bangladesh) are exploiting West Bengal economically at the expense of the native peoples.

The group complains that, among other things, “refugees occupy 200,000 jobs in the jute mills, leaving thousands of local Bengalis without jobs or means of survival. Millions of rupees leave Bengal annually. Nearly 70 percent of the land and homes of Kolkata are owned by non-Bengalis. Bengal's precious minerals such as iron and coal are sold to other states, and [West] Bengal is forced to purchase such basic staples as oil and sugar from outside the state.”

An Indian blogger named Kanchan Gupta described the illegal immigration of Bangladeshis as a “silent invasion of India” and a “grim reality.”

“Any effort, no matter how feeble, to raise the issue is met not only with fierce resistance but slander and worse. Yet, the indisputable fact is that Assam and the other states in India’s northeast, as also West Bengal and Bihar, continue to face a relentless tide of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. This ‘silent invasion’ by millions of people over the years has been encouraged by the Congress [party] and the [Communist Party of India]... Illegal immigrants are not only encouraged by these parties to enter India they are also provided with ‘documents’ to help them settle on land that belongs to others.”

Gupta specifically accuses left-wing politicians in West Bengal of encouraging illegal immigration in order to provide more (illegal) support for them during elections.

“Their names are entered on voters’ lists, thus creating a vast vote-bank of aliens who legally have no right to vote in India.” he wrote.

“Assam is facing external aggression and internal disturbance on account of large-scale illegal migration of Bangladeshi nationals and it becomes the duty of the Union of India to take all measures for protection of the State of Assam because it poses a threat to the integrity and security of the North-Eastern region, he declared.

Gupta directly links increased illegal immigration to the ambition of corrupt Indian politicians.

Gupta even accused the Communist Party in West Bengal of “disguising” illegal Bangladeshi immigrants as Indian nationals, at the expense of the latter.

“[The Communist Party in West Bengal] has... instructed its cadre to facilitate [the settlement of Bangladeshis] as ‘Indian nationals’, often at the expense of genuine citizens,” he wrote.

“[Indian] Bengali farmers have woken up in the morning to find Bangladeshis squatting on their land; shops and small businesses have changed hands through distress sale engineered by the party faithful; homesteads left vacant for a day have been grabbed.”

Due to their poverty and Islamic faith, Gupta contends, the illegal Bangladeshi immigrants pose a grave security risk to India.

“[They] live in ghettos and are prone to religious extremism, and are thus easy recruits for terrorist organizations aided and abetted by Pakistan,” he stated.

“Those immigrants who move on to other States across India carry with them radical views and many serve as scouts and foot soldiers for… [terrorist outfits].”

American CRACKPOTS who want to waste cash on a Wall that will not stop tunnels can use that cash wisely. No White Supremacist will do the hard labor of Migrant Workers. In many Sectors, Sectoral GDP will crash without Migrants. So just issue Work Permits. No Voting rights or benefits. Smart countries do that and become wealthy in short spans of time.
Dubai, Qatar, Saudi, Singapore have all used this Model with great effect.

No CRACKPOT in India in Right Wing or Left wing wasted cash on a Wall. [Incidentally The illegals who did come caused a boom in the construction industry when the rest of the World had a crisis. Blame the bosses who got dirt cheap labor. But now all that is in strict control, hardly any problem for past several months.]
Manpower was increased on the border, work permits were given and voila, the problem is under control.

In a couple of years, no Illegal Immigrant from Bangladesh who has moved in after 2010 can stay without the Unique ID Card.

Its really simple actually, but Will Power is needed. The investment for this is ridiculously low, less than 2 billion dollars for more than 1.3 billion people.
