What's the break-up of the population?
Muslim population, mostly of Bangladeshi origin, is 59% in Barpeta, 36% in Cachar, 52% in Karimganj, 74% in Dhubri, 51% in Nagaon, 25% in Kamrup, 54% in Goalpara, 57% in Hailakandi, 47% in Uttar Dinajpur, 24% in South Dinajpur, 52% in Malda, 25% in Cooch Behar and 64% in Murshidabad as per 2001 census.
The religion data findings of Census 2011 show exponential growth in Muslim population of Bangladeshi origin over the last census in several districts across Assam and West Bengal.
Bangladeshi Muslim population grows 5-7% in Assam and West Bengal
The data was complied last week by the Office of Registrar General of India (RGI) and the Census Commissioner. It shows 5-7 percentage point increase in absolute terms of Bangladeshi Muslim population over the 2001 census data in nearly all districts of Assam and West Bengal bordering Bangladesh, sources told dna.
So, how many Bangladeshi Muslims are there?
"In most districts of Assam and West Bengal bordering Bangladesh, their population has either become majority or threatening to become majority. The uniform increase of 5-7 percent clearly shows illegal migration has remained unchecked during the last decade," a source said.
How's the new demographic changing politics?
The All India United Democratic Front of Badruddin Ajmal, said to be supported by Bangladeshi Muslims, won three seats – Karimganj, Dhubri and Barpeta – in the LS elections. Incidentally, Muslim population is the highest in these places.
Doesn't it vindicate the BJP stand?
Yes. Large-scale illegal immigration of Bangladeshi Muslims was the party's main poll plank in the recent Lok Sabha elections. Riding this plank, the BJP won 7 parliamentary seats, an all-time high, in Assam.
What's the govt reaction?
The data, being kept under tight wraps, was discussed in two back-to-back meetings by home minister Rajnath Singh, secretary Anil Goswami and RGI Dr C Chandramouli last week. A presentation of the findings is now being readied for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The government is expected to kick-start a series of steps to check the demographic fallouts.

WB and Assam have 45% Muslims. That's one of the reason why religious date of census 2011 isn't released. Both these states will become Muslim majoirty in 10-15 years. Deporting Bangladeshis who are between 60-80 million is impossible. Ghar-wapasi of Muslims will backfire. Hinduwadis can continue day-dreaming.
So??? Your problem with that? Be happy in your country dont bother thinking too hard for India's future.Welcome to shupa powa India.
A country governed by fundos who are building temples for the murderers of Ghandhi, converting people by force, re-writing history,
and asking the world to believe that they are a modern, secular, forward looking country.
There are more Bangladeshi Muslims than Indian ones in both states. You can't determine who is the outseider. Because they are same people. How are you going to deport more than 60 million Bangladeshis?What this has to do with West Bengal and Assam Indian Muslims ? The Problem of illegal immigration will end as soon as the enclaves issue would be solved and Modi Government is almost on the last stage to solve it , India-Bangladesh 3326 kilometre border is there and only 501 kilometres is left without fence of which 130 kilomteres is land where barbed wire fencing is going on and the rest of the portion is covered with rivers and water bodies according to Aug 24, 2014 article. Modi Government is going to have one more credit.
The 111 Indian enclaves are spread over 17,158 acres and have a population of 37,369. The Bangladesh enclaves are spread over 7,110 acres and have 14,215 people. The population figures were arrived at as part of a headcount carried out by the two countries from July 14 to July 17, 2011.

6cr illegal Bangladeshis in India, claims ex-DG of BSFIllegal immigrants from Bangladesh are both Muslims and Hindus and these are economic immigrants.
According to 2001, BBC article
Bangladesh Refugee Welfare Council, a Calcutta- based group representing Bangladeshi Hindu immigrants in India, claims nearly 100,000 people entered India over the last month-and-a-half.
It is reported that that several thousand Hindus have since 2001 fled into neighboring India. The Indian government estimated in 2006 that there were 15 million illegal immigrants (many of these, Hindus) within the Indian borders.
