KOLKATA: West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday accused the Border Security Force (BSF) of allowing infiltration from Bangladesh and claimed it was being done as part of the Centre's "blueprint" to malign the eastern state and the Trinamool Congress (TMC).

"We have information that BSF is letting infiltrators enter India through various border areas, including Islampur, Sitai and Chopra. There is a conspiracy involving the Centre. The Centre has a blueprint for this, else it couldn't have happened," Banerjee alleged, while addressing an administrative review meeting at the state secretariat.
