Mexico deports 311 Indian migrants back to South Asia
20
Mexican immigration authorities say they have deported 311 Indian citizens in an unprecedented repatriation to the South Asian nation.
The National Immigration Institute said in a statement late on Wednesday that it had flown the 310 men and one woman to New Dehli from Toluca.
The migrants had been detained by immigration officials in various Mexican states before being concentrated at a detention centre in the state of Veracruz in preparation for their deportation.
The vast majority of migrants transiting Mexico toward the US border are from Central America, but among the mix are people from all over the world.
Mexico has stepped up its immigration enforcement in recent months under pressure from the United States. The government has deployed thousands of National Guard agents along the major migration routes.

True face of "shinning India" and its "prosperous" Indian people, trying to flood the whole industralized, civilized, educated, well-to-do and advanced countries of the world especially the U.S., Central Europe and the rich G.C. C. countries in the Middle East.

Modi's India has no jobs for Indians. The job promises are made by Modi in his every speech just to get votes. He has made ever person more poor. Modi is spending billions on expensive war materials from every exporter country.

Soon Bangladesh is to become the next destination for migrants. With a GDP growth rate of 8%, the future for Bangladesh is bright.

I guess these are individuals who see green grass on the other side but have no required qualifications to enter legally. Anything illegal must be stopped.

Indians land Mexico to cross border into US. A very large number of Indians have already become illegal immigrants, Same is with a small number of people from China. In the skilled person category Indian and Chinese have the longest queue now to enter US and because of a 7% cap per countries they are unable get visas. An attempt to remove this rule was thwarted by US senate last month in September.
