Addressing the ongoing challenge of illegal immigration and human trafficking, India's former Ambassador to the US, Taranjit Singh Sandhu, emphasized the importance of education and skill development as preventive measures. In a discussion with ANI, he revealed that Indian authorities are actively communicating with the US regarding conditions faced by returnees.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during a joint press conference with President Donald Trump, reiterated India's readiness to accept nationals residing illegally in the US. He underscored the need to eradicate the human trafficking ecosystem, a sentiment he believes President Trump supports.

India continues efforts to enhance skill development, particularly in regions like Amritsar, to ensure youth are equipped with applicable skills for employment domestically and abroad.
