In Dec 2015 the Settler Offspring’s Welfare Association organized a public meeting at Diglipur Bazaar to express their concern over increasing intrusion of Bangladeshis in Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
During the meeting the speakers said that the Association members now feel that the intruders are taking away the cake, their jobs and other opportunities from the setters and local people.
On coming 6th Sep the Joint Action Committee of 42 associations and some political parties have also decided to observe Andaman Bandh demanding Inner Line Permit.
