Jaipur, May 16 : With the needle of suspicion in the Jaipur serial blasts pointing to the Bangladesh-based terrorist outfit, Harkat ul Jehade Islami (HuJI), the Rajasthan Government today issued an order to all district magistrates in the state to identify illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in the state and begin the process of their expulsion.

Rajasthan Parliamentary Affairs Minister Rajendra Rathor said the district magistrates have been asked to ensure compliance of the order within one month.

“They have been asked to verify if the addresses given by them are really of West Bengal or are fake,” Rathor said, clarifying on the status of people who have been issued government documents such as voters identity cards.

He also said that at least 40 Bangladeshis had been picked up by the police in relation with the ongoing investigations. “We think the terrorists had been provided local support by some people and are just trying to establish who they are. Our police teams have been sent to Andhra Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh and we are hoping for a breakthrough soon,” he added. The government also said that security will be beefed up for the IPL match scheduled for tomorrow.
