The Karnataka High Court has directed the state government to establish and operationalise district-level committees within three months to address illegal immigration, following the Central Government's 2025 Standard Operating Procedure. The court quashed two criminal cases against Bengaluru doctor Nagendrappa T, who reported suspected illegal Bangladeshi immigrants, noting these cases appeared retaliatory. The court emphasized that illegal immigration threatens sovereignty and security, urging firm and prompt action through proper legal mechanisms to prevent institutional vulnerabilities.
