Increasing population of ‘Rohingya’ community in Haryana state as well as in other part in the country is a danger to security, law and order in the state and country. According to information by Vinod Bansal National Convener of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) during his recent visit to Chandigarh told that data submitted by Ministry of Home reveals that there are nearly 40000 intruders belonging to ‘Rohingya’ community illegally residing in our country, whereas according to sources their actual number has been identified in lakhs, most of them residing in Jammu-Kashmir, Hyderabad, U.P, Rajasthan, Delhi NCR and Haryana states for which VHP is having sufficient evidences to prove their presence.
Bansal told that nearly 600 ‘Rohingya’ families are residing in Mewat area in Haryana state living in small groups like refugees in rural slum localities and state government making all efforts to identify and wipe them out from the state and their population is growing day by day due to support and shelter provided by a handful of people of a community in Mewat area. Infoemation reveals, ‘Rohingya’ families arrived as refugees started staying in huts, when two years ago nearly 200 temporary huts in which ‘Rohingya’ refugees were staying were reported caught fire and completely burnt down under mysterious circumstances. According to VHP leader, families residing in these temporary huts burnt under mysterious circumstances was under a conspiracy by the occupants hoping that Haryana state government will help them providing alternate residential accommodations for their stay but investigation by the government revealed truth when some of these families left the place and shifted to other districts in small groups.
According to Dr Surinder Jain VHP Naional Secretary, nearly 200 ‘Rohingya’ families are still residing in slum rural localities in small groups in Mewat area in Haryana state at present and remaining families shifted to other towns in the state in Faridabad, Gurugram and Yamunanagar districts. According to a state government spokesperson, it is very difficult to identify ‘Rohingya’ families most of them having Aadhar Card, Ration Card and Voter Card got prepared on the basis of fake documents.

Past scenario reveals, government in Myanmar when constituted a nationality law and finished the status of citizenship of ‘Rohingya’ community compelling them to leave the country and army men from Bangladesh present at the borders started living in relationship with the widows and those lost their lives and later on when they returned to Bangladesh left these females with whom they stayed in live in relationship, nor accepted grown up children delivered by them during live in relationship period and many of them entered in our country illegally, later started efforts to seek citizenship in the country. VHP leaders told that Indian government is not prepared to accept these ‘Rohingya’ refugees suspected having links with terrorist groups and antisocial elements across the world posing a danger to the security of our country as well as disclosing the secrets of our army to rival countries.
