India not a ‘dharamshala’, says Amit Shah; cites threats from infiltrators
Amit Shah said only citizens had the right to live in the country and infiltrators posed a threat to India’s security, economy and demographics.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah emphasized on Tuesday that India is not a "dharamshala" or charitable rest house, stressing that only citizens have the right to live in the country. Speaking at the National Security Strategy conference of the Intelligence Bureau, Shah warned that infiltrators posed a threat to India's security, economy, and demographics.
He said that over the past eight months, a four-pronged approach to border security had been shared with the states, with the goal of making the country free of infiltrators in a short period. Shah emphasized that a strong internal security apparatus is necessary for a developed India, particularly given global instability, energy and resource insecurities, supply-chain disruptions, rising radicalization, and cyber misinformation warfare.
