A plane with 112 Indians who were deported from the United States for illegally residing in that country landed in Amritsar on Saturday night. This is the third such arrival in a span of 10 days as part of the Donald Trump administration crackdown on such immigrants. It may be recalled that two youths from Goa, who were among the 116 Indians who were deported in the second batch for illegal immigration have since returned home. More Goans are expected to be deported in the days to come. Several of these immigrants have either sold or mortgaged their properties and homes to raise funds to go to the US. To add salt to injury they were deported in a most inhumane manner like Prisoners of War. All immigration norms should be respected. The NRI commission can guide people about the formalities that need to be completed to go abroad. The agents who are responsible for the youth entering the US illegally need to be brought under the scanner. This will stop illegal immigration not only to the US but to other countries as well.
