From Our Correspondents Influx from Bangladesh No Solution in offing

INFILTRATION from Bangladesh seems to have become a perennial problem to the border states. As for West Bengal, the rul-ing Left Front, the Border Security Force (BSF) and other similar agencies claim to have been maintaining a constant vigil on the border areas. Still, things are as bad as before and in some cases there is a marked deterioration in the situation. The May 7th third parliamentary poll in Bangladesh has caused further influx from across the border. Though no definite figure of the fresh entry into West Bengal is available statistics pro-vided by the Tripura government indicate the seriousness of the problem.
