US sends back Indian illegal immigrants, fourth repatriation flight arrives in Delhi

n a continued effort to curb illegal immigration, a U.S. military aircraft carrying 12 Indian nationals landed at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi on Sunday, February 23. This marks the fourth such deportation flight, as American authorities intensify their crackdown on migrants who entered the country illegally through Panama.

So far, four flights have transported Indian nationals back home from the United States as part of this repatriation process. The latest flight, which arrived in Delhi, was arranged to ensure the safe return of these individuals. Authorities have been closely monitoring the deportation process to guarantee the well-being of the returnees.

Four individuals head to Punjab

Upon arrival in Delhi, four of the 12 deported individuals were immediately transported to Punjab via a special vehicle arranged by local authorities. Necessary arrangements have been made to facilitate their reintegration into society, ensuring a smooth transition back to their hometowns.

The deportation of Indian nationals from the U.S. is an ongoing process, with officials confirming that more individuals will be returned soon. The Indian government has been cooperating with American authorities, and the initiative has received mixed reactions from the public. While some view it as a necessary legal measure, others highlight the hardships faced by these migrants.

U.S. military aircraft also lands in Amritsar with 119 Indians

In a separate deportation effort, another U.S. military aircraft carrying 119 Indian nationals landed at Amritsar Airport. These individuals had also entered the U.S. via Panama but were sent back under strict immigration regulations.

Authorities at Amritsar Airport ensured a smooth and secure landing for the deportees, providing essential assistance upon arrival. Local officials greeted the returnees and coordinated their transport to their respective destinations. The operation prioritized the safety and dignity of the individuals, many of whom faced difficult circumstances during their time abroad.

Transport arrangements for the returnees

After disembarking in Amritsar, the deported Indian nationals were directed towards their respective home states. Special transportation was arranged for those heading to Punjab, Delhi, and other regions. Authorities ensured that all necessary precautions were taken to avoid any inconvenience during the process.

The deportation of illegal immigrants remains a significant concern for both the United States and India, with ongoing discussions on immigration policies and border security. More flights carrying deported Indian citizens are expected in the coming weeks as the crackdown on unlawful migration continues.
