LG office has written a letter to Delhi Chief Secretary, Police Commissioner, MCD Commissioner and NDMC President expressing concern over this issue and directing them to remain alert. The letter said that there are reports that efforts are being made to adopt the process of preparing and manipulating the identity documents of illegal immigrants like Aadhar Card, Voter ID Card etc. on the basis of fake documents.

The AAP government in Delhi, reacting to the Lieutenant Governor's remarks on illegal immigrants, said, “BJP only uses the issue of illegal immigrants for political gains. There should be a thorough investigation into how illegal immigrants are entering our country. Amit Shah and the Union Home Ministry are directly responsible for this.”

AAP said “If there are illegal immigrants, how many are there? This is a big failure and not taking action against such people highlights it more clearly,” “On one hand BJP is giving citizenship to illegal immigrants and on the other hand it is pretending to investigate. BJP should stop this hypocrisy and end its dirty politics,”

LG said in the letter that there has been a sudden increase in the number of illegal immigrants in Delhi. “Encroachment by such people on public roads, footpaths and parks has also increased. There are reports that fake documents and fraudulent process are being used to make their identity cards like Aadhaar card, election identity card etc.”

Saxena said, “If illegal immigrants are issued election identity cards, it will give them the most powerful right of democracy i.e. the right to vote in our country. Giving such rights to illegal immigrants will not be accepted by any Indian citizen. “Such steps can also be harmful to national security.”
