Poonch: In the aftermath of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Indian authorities have ordered the deportation of Pakistani nationals residing in Mendhar, a town near the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir.
The move has led to the return of several individuals to Pakistan, some of whom had been living in India for decades through cross-border marriages. Their sudden deportation has left families distressed, who are now appealing to the government to reconsider its decision.
A resident in Poonch said, “My wife had been living here for 45 years, she has a Pakistani nationality. We request that the government deport individuals who have committed wrongdoings, but not those who have done no wrong. My family has been serving the country, with some of them in the army and police.”
Another family member said, “Under this new order, some of my relatives were also deported. They had been living here for the last 40-45 years. This is an injustice. We appeal to the government to serve justice and bring them back.”
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a meeting on Tuesday, which was attended by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Anil Chauhan, and the three service chiefs.
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval was also present at the meeting.
The meeting took place days after a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security on April 23, following the terror attack on tourists in Pahalgam in which 26 people were killed.
