DIPHU (Assam), February 7, 2026 — The Assam government has directed three individuals declared as illegal Bangladeshi immigrants to leave India within 24 hours, officials confirmed on Saturday.
The expulsion orders were issued under Section 2 of the Immigrants (Expulsion from Assam) Act, 1950, after the Foreigners Tribunal (FT) identified the three as illegal entrants through separate rulings in December.
Authorities said the orders, signed by the Karbi Anglong district commissioner earlier this week, were formally served to the individuals on Saturday.
The three persons have been identified as Md Fakruddin, a resident of the Bokajan police station area, and Md Rafiqul Ali and Md Faizul Haque, who were living under the jurisdiction of Manja police station.
According to the official directives, the presence of individuals declared as foreigners was considered “prejudicial to the interests of the general public and the internal security of the state.”
The orders instruct them to leave Assam and exit India through designated border routes at Dhubri, Sribhumi, or South Salmara-Mankachar within 24 hours of receiving the notice.
Officials warned that failure to comply would result in further action by the authorities to ensure their removal from the state and the country.
The move follows ongoing efforts by the state administration to implement tribunal decisions related to illegal immigration and strengthen border management measures.
