US Ramps Up Deportations: 119 Indians to Arrive in Amritsar Amid Growing Concerns
Donald Trump’s aggressive stance on illegal immigration sees another wave of deportations, with two flights carrying 119 illegal Indian immigrants landing in Amritsar on February 15 and February 16.
This comes just days after the controversial deportation of 104 Indians on February 5, transported on a military aircraft in chains—a move that triggered nationwide outrage. Allegations of poor treatment in detention have emerged, with some immigrants claiming restricted access to washrooms and a lack of clarity about their deportation status.
One Indian student recounted being arrested during a trip and deported without prior notice.
The Indian government has assured citizens that it is in discussions with Washington DC to ensure fair treatment for its nationals. However, with deportations escalating, concerns continue to grow within the community.
