Medak BJP MP M. Raghunandan Rao has raised serious concerns over the deteriorating law and order situation in Telangana, urging Chief Minister Revanth Reddy to publicly disclose detailed data on illegal immigrants, particularly Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals, and unauthorised madrasas operating across the state.
In a letter addressed to the Chief Minister on May 2, BJP MP Rao cited multiple recent incidents of temple desecration and communal tensions, saying, “You are aware of the series of incidents that have recently been occurring in Telangana State—Durga Devi Mandap vandalism in Nampally, idol destruction in Old City and Vikarabad, and most recently, the Muthyalamma temple incident.”
The MP highlighted a disturbing case from his own constituency, stating, “In Jinnaram, some children studying in a madrasa entered a Shiva temple and vandalised the idol. CCTV footage has confirmed the incident.” He went on to question the background of students in that madrasa, pointing out, “Out of 70 students, 65 are said to have come from Kishanganj in Bihar, but no one has complete details about them. Locals strongly suspect they are not Indian citizens.”
The BJP MP also referred to a prior incident in Sadashivapet where “many Bangladeshi citizens living illegally were found to possess voter ID and Aadhaar cards. This was directly reported by municipal officials to the police.”
Expressing grave concern, he warned, “In Telangana, the law and order situation appears to be like embers hidden under ashes.”
He questioned how many madrasas in Telangana are officially recognised and how many are operating without any permissions. “Do we have records of the students studying there, their family details, and which country they belong to? What kind of curriculum is being taught? There are many suspicions that anti-India content is being indoctrinated there, and those suspicions may well be true,” he cautioned.
Citing the recent Pahalgam terrorist attack in Kashmir, he reminded the Chief Minister that the Ministry of Home Affairs has instructed all states to deport illegal residents, especially Pakistanis. “As per those orders, how many Pakistani nationals has the Telangana government sent back? What has been done about other illegal foreign residents? The people of Telangana are eager to know,” Rao asserted.
He concluded with a direct appeal to CM Revanth Reddy, who also holds the Education and Home portfolios: “I request you to immediately review the madrasas, the students in them, those teaching there, their background and history, and take steps to protect both education and law and order. I urge you to disclose this information to the people of Telangana.”
