August 22, 2025, in Patna. In a recent public speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi talked about his worries about the growing number of illegal immigrants in Bihar. He said that changes in the population along the border could have an effect on nearby communities. He also said that the people of Bihar’s rights and chances needed to be protected.
“It’s a problem that the number of illegal immigrants in the country is growing.” “Demography is changing quickly in the border areas of Bihar,” Modi said, stressing that the government would take action to fix the problem.
A mission to study population and deal with immigration
To deal with the rising problems, PM Modi announced the creation of a demographic mission whose job will be to track and manage population changes in border areas. This is what the NDA government said: “Illegal immigrants will not decide the future of our country.” “We won’t let refugees take jobs that belong to people from Bihar,” he said.
Modi said that the mission would start soon and its main goal would be to make sure that foreigners don’t force locals to move or hurt their chances of getting a job.
Will It Be A Big Headache For The Opposition?
The Prime Minister also said harsh things about the rival parties, especially the Congress and the RJD. He said they were helping immigrants get votes. “The people of Bihar should be careful around people who support these immigrants in the country.” “Congress and RJD want to take away the rights of the people of Bihar and give them to immigrants to make them happy and get more votes,” Modi said.
This comment comes at a time when political debates about India’s immigration policies are heating up. Parties from all sides are bringing up both humanitarian and national security concerns.
Keeping safety and well-being in check
Experts say that stopping people from coming into the country illegally is a top priority for security, but the way it is done must strike a balance between law and protecting human rights. The suggested demographic mission will likely be based on policy measures such as registration, verification, and targeted help for communities that have been affected.
Some local leaders are glad that the government is focusing on jobs and resources for residents, while others have asked that the plan be carefully put into action so that it doesn’t alienate vulnerable groups.
