Concubine weakens bond


TMI Bureau
Port Blair, Oct 23: Apart from rising prostitution at various locations in A&N Islands, another destructive relationship arises in the name of Concubines in the society. It is well known to the islanders that the influx of Bangladeshies in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands has affected a lot in many ways viz. they are encroaching land, consuming electricity and water, fearlessly. Experts believe that large number of people, suspected to be Bangladeshi, also has local documents.
But, now it can been seen destroying relationships in happy families in these Islands. A group of women alleges that, their relationship with their husbands are weakening due to the concubines (a woman who lives with a man but has lower status than his wife or wives) and their husbands used to neglect look after their wife and children and other family members. We have knocked every door from NGOs/ Women Welfare Associations to Govt. agencies for Women protection, but in vain.
Accordingly to reliable sources, some govt. servants in forces deny to enter their wives name into service book, because of the concubines. Consequently, the genuine dependents of the persons get affected in many ways.
In views of the drastic situation, it is high time to call for National Register of Citizenship (NRC) to check influx of foreigners in Andaman & Nicobar Islands to safeguard the interests of the residents being affected by migrants from Bangladesh.
