Congress needs the minority votes in India especially that of Muslims to get elected and stay in power. But are they playing games with fire? Sources say little is being done to get rid of the illegal immigrants from Bangladesh . Millions are coming in every month in Assam , Tripura, West Bengal and other neighboring states. These illegal immigrants are quickly moving towards Kashmir on the Indian side of the Line of Control and are getting refuge. Congress knowing this very well is sitting tight hoping for more votes next time around. The left parties are more vocal but is not doing much either.
