The Chhattisgarh high court dismissed petitions from Bangladeshi refugees seeking protection from eviction. The court stated foreigners cannot claim rights over government land without legal entitlement. Petitioners argued they had lived on the land for over sixty years. However, the court cited Supreme Court decisions on unauthorized occupation. The ruling emphasized that prolonged possession does not grant legal rights over government property.
