Deportation Dilemma: US Sends Back Indian Immigrants

A second plane carrying 119 illegal Indian immigrants from the US is set to land at Amritsar airport. The deportation has sparked controversy, with Punjab's Chief Minister accusing the central government of defaming Punjab. The issue has led to political tensions between state parties.

A second aircraft carrying 119 illegal immigrants from the United States is scheduled to arrive at Amritsar airport on Saturday night. This group, largely comprising individuals from Punjab and Haryana, is part of the Trump administration's ongoing efforts to address illegal migration.

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann criticized the central government for selecting Amritsar as the landing point, suggesting it was an attempt to tarnish the reputation of Punjab. He questioned the criteria behind Amritsar's selection, implying it was a politically motivated decision.

The BJP responded by accusing Mann of politicizing the matter, highlighting the need to address the reasons behind illegal migration rather than indulging in political rhetoric. The deportation issue continues to stir political tensions within the region.
