Us illegal Indian departation: After the introduction of the collective exile by Donald Trump in the US, India has identified 388 illegal Indian migrants, who have now returned to their country. According to the Times of India report, some of these illegal migrants reached Amritsar in India directly from America, while some have returned to Panama with the help of International Migration Organization (IOM).
The biggest challenge for India is that it cannot know how many Indians are living illegally in America. The reason behind this is that these immigrants had legally out of India, but they either stayed there for more than the period of their American visa and violated the law or entered America in illegal ways.
Confirmation of Indian citizenship
According to the Government of India, confirmation of the nationality of illegal migrants is a continuous process and it is ensured before exile. Minister of State for External Affairs Kirti Vardhan Singh told the Rajya Sabha that such migrants are deported, whose Indian citizenship has been confirmed.
Number and migration of exiled Indians
In 2019, most Indians were deported from the US, whose number was 2,042. In 2022, this number decreased to 1,368. These figures show that the process of exile is a complex issue for India, as it takes time to identify and confirm the nationality of deported individuals. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said in his statement in Parliament that it is the duty of any country to take back his citizens illegally abroad, but it should be based on the clear verification of their nationality. He also emphasized that India is taking tough measures against illegal migrants and illegal migration industry in the country will also be tightened.
Illegal migration industry and India’s action
The biggest concern for the Government of India is to stop those agents and organizations that promote illegal stay. S Jaishankar said in Parliament that law enforcement agencies will take strict action against agents providing illegal stay based on information received from the exile. These agents often work to send migrants to America by fake documents or illegal routes, cheating migrants and endangered their future.
Illegal migration problem
Although various estimates have been made about the number of Indians living illegally in the US, which can be from 200,000 to 700,000, but the Government of India has no accurate data. The reason behind this is that most of the immigrants went out of India in legitimate ways, but later started living illegally in America. The Indian government is taking the problem of illegal migration seriously and is focusing on international cooperation and strict policies to stop it. Strict action is being taken against those who provide illegal stay based on the information of the exile and their experiences.
Severity of illegal migration issue
The return of 388 illegal migrants returning from America and nationality verification in the exile is an important place. The Indian government is taking the issue of illegal stay seriously and is taking international cooperation and strict steps to tighten it. Strict eye and strict action on illegal migration industry is an important step in this direction.
