February 05, 2025

IT was in November 2024, the US shared a list of 18,000 illegal migrants to be deported to India.

- HARPREET BAJWA @Chandigarh

The Indian government has said it is firmly opposed to illegal immigration and that it is ready to take them back.

The US military aircraft with illegal immigrants is scheduled to land in Amritsar on Wednesday morning.

The Punjab Police and the state government have so far not received any information about the identity of the deportees. The police are reportedly in touch with the MEA and MHA and the NIA for details.

The police are tracking files of illegal immigrants and criminals who fled to the US and have not been extradited to date. Of the 100-odd such cases, at least 20 are said to be in the US. However, they are not confident of finding such persons on the flight.
