Indian Student Handcuffed at Newark Airport in US to Be Deported; India Protests, Seeks Explanation
An Indian student from Haryana was handcuffed and pinned to the ground at Newark Airport, New Jersey, before being detained and ordered for deportation. The Indian Consulate in New York confirmed he entered the U.S. illegally and will be deported once deemed medically fit to travel. However, a video of the student crying and restrained went viral, sparking outrage. Indian-American author Kunal Jain shared the incident on social media, tagging EAM S. Jaishankar and the Indian Embassy. The Indian government has officially raised the matter with the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi and is following up with American authorities. The exact circumstances of his restraint and deportation process remain unclear. India has demanded a full report. The case adds to the growing list of deportations—over 1,080 Indian nationals have been deported since the Trump administration began. The incident raises serious concerns over how Indian nationals, especially students, are being treated abroad.#indianstudentdeported #newarkairport #usimmigration #jaishankar #indianembassy #haryanastudent #visaissues #usindiatensions #illegalentry #studentabroad #toi #toibharat #bharat #breakingnews #indianews
