Second US flight carrying Indian migrants to reach Amritsar today

 


Second US flight carrying Indian migrants to reach Amritsar today 

The second flight transporting Indian deportees from the United States is anticipated to land in Amritsar between 10 and 11 in the evening on Saturday. 

During the latest phase of deportations connected to President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement, 119 undocumented Indian nationals are scheduled to arrive at Amritsar International Airport in a US military aircraft on Saturday. 

A C-17 military plane from the US will transport 67 individuals from Punjab, 33 from Haryana, eight from Gujarat, three from Uttar Pradesh, two each from Rajasthan and Maharashtra, and one each from Goa, Jammu and Kashmir, and Himachal Pradesh. 


The flight is set to reach Amritsar Airport at approximately 10 pm on Saturday. The deportation process is expected to persist every two weeks until all undocumented immigrants have returned to their home country, as reported by the PTI news agency. 


Last week, 104 undocumented Indian immigrants were sent back from the US. They were flown to Amritsar on a C-17 transport aircraft provided by the US military.
