Interestingly, Deputy Commissioners of the six Santhal Pargana districts – Pakur, Sahibganj, Dumka, Godda, Deoghhar and Jamtara, in their affidavits filed earlier in the case had declared that no Bangladeshi intrusion has taken place in their districts.Expressing surprise over their denial over infiltration in the region, the court had warned the concerned DCs that if even a single infiltration is found in their districts, a contempt case will be initiated against them.According to the Central Government, the infiltration is assessed to have taken place through Sahibganj and Pakur districts mainly, which are contiguous to West Bengal. The infiltrators preferred these areas because of common dialect which helped their integration, it said.
