Compelled to take 'dunki' route to US, three UP men sent back to India
Hindustan Times West UP
|February 07, 2025
KULBIR SINGH -- A SMALL FARMER WITH 15 BIGHAS OF AGRICULTURE LAND -- PAID RS 40 LAKH TO AGENTS TO SEND HIS SON ABROAD.
MUZAFFARNAGAR/PILIBHIT: Three men from Uttar Pradesh were compelled to take the treacherous 'dunki' route to illegally enter the US in search of a better life for themselves and their families back home.
On Wednesday, the trio arrived in Amritsar in a US military plane, allegedly in shackles, after being deported from the US -- their hopes of living the "American dream" shattered.
Derived from a Punjabi idiom, 'dunki' roughly translates to "hop from place to place".
Becoming popular in common parlance following the release of Shah Rukh Khan's 'Dunki' in 2023, it refers to illegal immigration that involves crossing borders through covert stops in multiple countries, mostly facilitated by agents.
