Officials confirmed that 150 Bangladeshi nationals residing illegally in Jammu and Kashmir are being deported back to Bangladesh.
Government officials announced that 150 individuals of Bangladeshi origin, who had entered Jammu and Kashmir without legal permission, are slated for deportation. The move follows a recent verification drive by security agencies that identified the migrants as illegal entrants, and authorities said it is part of ongoing efforts to curb illegal immigration in the region. The deportees will be handed over to Bangladeshi authorities at the border, in accordance with bilateral protocols. While the exact timeline was not disclosed, officials indicated that the process is already underway, reflecting the central government's broader policy to enforce immigration laws and protect demographic balance in sensitive border states.
