A U.S. military aircraft carrying 104 illegal Indian immigrants landed at the Shri Guru Ramdas Ji International Airport in Amritsar on Wednesday (Jan. 5, 2025) afternoon, sources said. The flight landed at 1.55 p.m. While 30 of the deportees are from Punjab, 33 each are from Haryana and Gujarat, three each from Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh, and two from Chandigarh, the sources said.An official confirmation on the number of deportees is awaited.

Earlier, reports claimed that U.S. military plane C-17 was carrying 205 illegal immigrants.

This is the first batch of illegal Indian immigrants to have been deported by the U.S. Government.
After Donald Trump assumed office as the U.S. President last month, the country’s law enforcement agencies have launched a crackdown against illegal immigrants.

Many people from Punjab, who entered the U.S. through “donkey routes” or other illegal means by spending lakhs of rupees, are now facing deportation.
