Indians living in America are afraid!?  India after Colombia?

Prime minister Modi and donald trump spoke on the phone yesterday (Monday). It is reported that they discussed bilateral relations. It has been reported that the arrest of indians living illegally in the united states for deportation has begun and that the police are entering the Gurudwara and arresting Sikhs associated with Khalistan separatist groups. Since donald trump took office as the President of the united states, the world has been shaken by his actions. trump, who had been calling those living illegally in the united states aliens during the presidential election campaign, had been saying that they would all be deported once he became president.

Various human rights organizations condemned Donald Trump's decision. Pope Francis had warned that the livelihoods of those deported would be completely destroyed. President donald trump, who declared a state of emergency on the Mexican border after taking office, has deployed 4,000 troops there to stop illegal immigrants. An average of 500 people have been arrested every day in the united states for the past few days. Photos of officers leading them away with their hands behind their backs were shared on social media. More than a hundred Colombians who were arrested were deported to colombia on two military planes without seats or air conditioning. The Colombian government refused to allow the two planes to land in their country, so they returned to the United States. This was seen as a nod to US President donald trump on the international stage.
Enraged by this, donald trump announced that he would impose a 25% tax on goods exported from colombia to the US. He also threatened to raise the tax to 50% within a week. The country's opposition parties began to voice their concerns that the tax increase would severely affect the economy in Colombia. Following this, Custodio Pedro, the president of the left-wing party that governs colombia, changed his position. He said that he was ready to accept all those deported from the United States. At the same time, he asked that they be sent on passenger planes, not on military planes like criminals. Following this, the US announced that the 25% tax imposed by donald trump on colombia would not come into effect. It is said that lakhs of indians, especially Gujaratis, are illegally residing in the US. Even before donald trump took office, US immigration officials had a list of 18,000 indians ready for deportation by the US government. When the deportation process began, External Affairs minister S jaishankar said last week that there was no problem in returning the indians who were illegally residing in the US. Reports have emerged that the search operation has started and that the police are entering Sikh gurdwaras and searching for them.

It is said that the clerics objected to the guards entering the gurdwara. The guards, who said that the rule that was in force during the Joe Biden administration not to search places of worship has now been lifted, have stepped up the arrest process. In this situation, the question has arisen whether the indians who are illegally residing in the US will also be deported on military planes, just like the Colombians were deported.
On the other hand, US President donald trump said that prime minister Narendra Modi is likely to visit the white house in February. prime minister Narendra Modi will be one of the first world leaders to visit Washington after trump takes office. He said that they also discussed the key issue of immigration.

"I spoke with him at length this morning. He will be visiting the white house next month. We have a very good relationship with india," trump told reporters on air Force One.
