Gujarat Police is working as per the directive of the Centre to deport all Pakistanis back to their country as well. I congratulate Ahmedabad city police and Surat police, the way they reached corners and in just one night did this operation. Police Commissioner, JCPs, DCPs were in the field through the night for this operation. All intruders should surrender selves in next two days or police would deport them to Bangladesh. Those harboring the intruders will also be punished strictly through legal actions. Those Bangladeshi intruders who are in Gujarat through fake documents of Bengal will face strict actions.’
