New Delhi [India], May 1 : Bharatiya Janata Party MP Nishikant Dubey launched a sharp attack on Trinamool Congress on illegal infiltration, stressing that the party's "helpers are slowly coming down to the fore."

In a post on 'X', the BJP MP shared a video claiming to be a Bangladesh MP, saying that if the BJP government comes to power in West Bengal, it would stop the illegal infiltration and curb Bangladeshi Muslims from the state.
