Leaders of the West Bengal unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party on Saturday (October 25, 2025) urged ‘refugees of religious persecution’ from Bangladesh to apply for Indian citizenship under the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) as soon as possible, and claimed their names will appear on the State’s voters’ list.

“We request Bangladeshi Hindu refugees to enrol in CAA camps. On behalf of the BJP and the Rashtravadi Vichar Parivar, several camps are being organised, with computers, printers and laptops. Please visit these camps, contact the BJP mandals. Every mandal has multiple assistance camps going on. Please apply, the Indian government and the West Bengal BJP will stand beside you,” Leader of Opposition in West Bengal Assembly and BJP MLA Suvendu Adhikari said on Saturday.
