A Congress MP has written letters to the Union government requesting it to provide protection and security for the Indian enclave dwellers, so that the exchange process is implemented smoothly.

Congress MP Pradip Bhattacharya, who is also Chairman, Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Affairs, has written two separate letters to Home Minister Rajnath Singh and External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, apprising them of the situation in Indian enclaves in Bangladesh.

"I have written two letters to Sushma Swarajji and Rajnath Singhji informing them about the insecurity those living in Indian enclaves in Bangladesh are feeling because of some suspicious activities going on there in collusion with land mongers (brokers)," Bhattacharya told reporters.
 

Bhattacharya in his letter expressed displeasure over the functioning of the Indian High Commission in Dhaka.

"The whole thing deserves to be kept under close watch and the actions for implementation of the package should be intiated without any further loss of time," Bhattacharya felt.

Bhattachraya demanded that the BSF be asked to keep a watch and give necessary protection and security to the Indian enclave dwellers.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Dhaka on June 6 to sign the land Boundary Agreement between India and Bangladesh. The signing will be attended by Mamata Banerjee as well.
