Indian intelligence agencies have issued a stark warning about a multi-pronged ISI terror push originating from West Bengal’s Murshidabad and Malda districts. These areas, bordering Bangladesh, are reportedly witnessing a significant increase in illegal immigration and radicalization, posing a grave threat to national security. Officials highlight that illegal immigrants have gained substantial numbers, money, and influence, leading to demographic changes and land acquisition from the majority community.

The ISI-backed elements are allegedly expanding their criminal networks through cattle smuggling, narcotics, and currency counterfeiting. Intelligence reports indicate the use of illegal madrassas as safe houses and training grounds. Groups like the Rohingya Solidarity Organisation, Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army, and Ansarullah Bangla Team are reportedly active, aiding the ISI’s agenda. The primary objective appears to be destabilizing the region, creating communal tensions, and nurturing terror modules.

Furthermore, the intelligence suggests a broader plan to infiltrate and conduct operations in India’s northeastern states, including Assam. This ISI terror push in Bengal aims not only to disrupt internal stability but also to damage India-Bangladesh relations. A coordinated response is crucial to counter this escalating threat.
