| Summary/Abstract |
South Asian regional non-cooperation has attracted more analysis than South Asian regional cooperation due to the historical legacy of partition and political drawing and re-drawing of boundary for dividing the erstwhile Indian sub-continent into Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. Through an analysis of policies taken up by India and Bangladesh on the issue of migration, this paper claims that the issue of illegal migration have been a major bone of contention between India and Bangladesh till date and it will remain the same because there cannot be any agreement between the countries like land boundary or water sharing to stop illegal migration because it deals with attitude and needs of the common people of Bangladesh.

Abstract
Hindu nationalists made migration from Bangladesh an election campaign in West Bengal during the 1990s. Although there were various allegations against Bangladeshi migration, it never became a mainstream political issue in the state, like in neighbouring Assam. West Bengal shares the longest border with Bangladesh, compared to any other Indian state, and hosts a large number of Bangladeshi migrants, according to the Census reports in India. West Bengal and Bangladesh share a common ethnicity, both are predominantly Bengali. Can this shared Bengaliness explain why Bangladeshi migration did not become a divisive political issue in the state? If this sameness is a bonding factor, what about the Ghoti-Bangal differences? Drawn from in-depth interviews with the representatives of West Bengal’s key civil society organisations and political parties, I argue that a particular historical and cultural process, unique to West Bengal and Bangladesh, has shaped the current attitude towards Bangladeshi migrants in the state.
