Aug 18, 2022

New Delhi, August 18 (ANI): Union Minister Anurag Thakur on August 18 lashed out at the AAP government for providing housing to Rohingyas and said that the Delhi government distributed ‘Revdis’ to Rohingyas and asked why could not Kejriwal agree to detention centres for them.He said, “Rohingyas who live here and are illegal migrants are given free water, electricity, ration; now even flats were to be given to them by Delhi government. They have lied again, distributed 'Revdis'. Why is he not readying detention centres?”“I'd like to clarify; HMO has articulately said that Rohingyas illegal migrants won't be considered citizens of India. They will be sent back; MEA is in talks for the same. They are (AAP govt) ready to compromise national security for vote bank politics. National security is of utmost importance to us &like we've said before, illegal immigrants won't be given shelter here; MEA in talks to send them back to their countries.”
