A Bangladeshi student studying at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Silchar was sent back to her country after she reacted to an anti-India post on social media with a love emoji, Assam Police said on Tuesday.
In this case, Cachar Superintendent of Police Numal Mahata told the news agency that this is not a case of deportation, but she has been sent back to her country only after talking to Bangladesh officials. The SP said that the name of the student is Maisha Mahjabeen. She is a fourth semester student of Electronics and Communication at NIT Silchar.
Went back through ICP of Sutarkandi
According to SP Mahata, Mahjabeen was sent back to Bangladesh on Monday through an Integrated Check Post (ICP) at Sutarkandi in Karimganj district. There is no case of deportation in this case. A senior of Mahjabeen had posted an anti-India post on Facebook. She had reacted to this with a love emoji. That senior has also been a student of NIT Silchar.
Reacted to the post of former Bangladeshi student of NIT
SP said that the former NIT student who posted the anti-India post is also a resident of Bangladesh. His name is Sadat Hussain Alfi, who left India six months ago after completing his studies. He is currently living in Bangladesh. When Mahjabeen responded to Alfi’s anti-India post with a love emoji, many people expressed displeasure over it.
The student had sought permission from the NIT management to go back
SP Mahata says that after this, Mahjabeen requested the NIT Silchar officials to allow her to return to Bangladesh. She also asked whether she would return again to complete the course. Because she has not completed her course yet. It cannot be said right now whether she will return to complete the course or not.
70 Bangladeshi students study in NIT Silchar
At present, 70 Bangladeshi students are studying in NIT Silchar with the consent of the Indian and Bangladeshi governments. According to SP Mahata, 40 of these 70 students are Hindus. I have personally met each student and have requested all of them not to do anything that is related to anti-India activities.
Hindu Rakkhi Dal had informed the police
Meanwhile, Hindu Rakkhi Dal spokesperson Suwashish Chowdhury told the news agency that he saw the anti-India post of the NIT alumnus and informed the police and urged them to take necessary action. We also forwarded some anti-India posts to the police, which came from Rajshahi University in Bangladesh. On one of these posts, Mahjabeen had reacted with a love emoji.
