Delhi Police's Foreigner Cell has arrested two Bangladeshi nationals for overstaying their visas during Operation VISTA 1.0, a drive against visa violations in the capital. The two men, identified as MD Anharul Islam Sourob Khan (23) and Tarikul Islam Sujan (27), were caught at a hotel on Arakashan Road in Nabi Karim on Friday.
They entered India on June 23 on double-entry visas valid until September 3 but were allowed to stay only 15 days per visit. After document verification, police produced them before the Foreigners Regional Registration Office, which issued Restriction Orders and sent them to a detention centre. Deportation proceedings have been initiated.
This arrest is routine enforcement, but it will feed lazy narratives that paint all Bangladeshi migrants as criminals or overstayers. Operation VISTA targets visa violators regardless of nationality, yet some commentators will ignore that nuance. A more useful test: watch how many similar cases involve other nationalities in the coming months. That number will tell us if the drive is even-handed or selectively publicised.
