Court rejects plea of 3 Pak minors seeking visa extension

NOTING that the Government of India has taken a conscious decision to suspend various visas and also directed Pakistani nationals to leave the country to safeguard the interest of Indian citizens, the Karnataka High Court dismissed the petition filed by three minor Pakistani children through their mother with a prayer to issue directives to the Commissioner of Police and Foreigners Registration Officer, Mysuru City, to extend their visa or issue a long-term visa.
