The UN is probing India’s deportation of Rohingya refugees after claims they were misled into leaving under a “relocation program,” raising serious concerns about human rights violations and forced repatriation to Myanmar.
Today, On 8th January, The Delhi High Court rejected a plea seeking a rehabilitation package under the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). The petition argued for financial support for communities impacted by the law, but the court ruled against granting such a package. The decision marks a significant development in the ongoing legal discourse surrounding the CAA.
The Supreme Court Today has agreed to hear a petition in March urging the government to release Rohingya refugees reportedly detained “illegally and arbitrarily” across India. The plea emphasizes their persecution and statelessness, and seeks to safeguard their fundamental rights. Hundreds of refugees, including pregnant women and minors, face inhumane treatment despite being recognized as refugees by the UNHCR.
