BJP slams Cong govt over illegal immigration data discrepancy

Bengaluru, Mar 12 (UNI) The BJP on Wednesday raised serious concerns in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly over the Congress government’s handling of illegal immigration, questioning the accuracy of official data and calling for stringent action.
BJP MLA Manappa D Vajjal from Lingasugur brought the issue to the forefront, alleging that the state government's figures were grossly underreported.
According to the Congress-led government, Karnataka has only 556 illegal immigrants, but Vajjal claimed that Vijayapura district alone had around 13,000 such individuals. "If one district has 13,000 illegal immigrants, the actual number across the state must be in the lakhs," he argued, highlighting discrepancies in official statistics.
