India to Verify Citizenship of Deported Persons

The Indian government will repatriate deported Indian citizens from Bangladesh to verify citizenship claims, following a Supreme Court hearing. This involves families from West Bengal illegally deported to Bangladesh in 2025. The Calcutta High Court previously ruled the deportations illegal, citing proper documentation existed. The government will examine their nationality through appropriate procedures. The case specifically concerns Sunali Khatun, who was deported while pregnant, and her family members.
