Please wait for few days. I am trying to e-mail the names of all the migrants in Sancoale village listed on the election roll. Now Sancoale village is unofficially bifurcated. Alto Sancoale is called/named Zuarinagar and this is the part occupied by the migrants. I have mistakenly called them illegal migrants. What I wanted to say is, migrants living in illegal houses.
