A lawsuit (pill) has been submitted for the Supreme Court that claims that “forced deportation” of Rohingya refugees by the government to Myanmar.
Claiming that around 43 Rohingya refugees, including children, women, elderly and people with serious health status, were deported vigorously, the petitioners were looking for instructions for the government to fly back to Delhi and release them from custody.
The plea claimed that Rohingya refugees, transported to airports and flown to Port Blair, were applied by violence naval vessels with their hands tied up and blindfolded eyes. It has also been claimed that the prisoners in the sea have been abandoned without taking their lives or safety into account.
The prisoners were taken for their biometric collection, but were not released afterwards, it added.
The counselor of the center, lawyer -general Tushar Mehta, referred to the order of 8 April 2021 of the Tophof and said it was the government to take deportation action in accordance with the law.
A bank led by the judiciary Surya Kant, who considered things with regard to Rohingya refugees, was informed on 8 April by the Council of the Prisoners and said that Rohingya refugees with UNHCR maps were being arrested and deported.
The order of April 2021 said that the rights that are guaranteed on the basis of Articles 14 and 21 are available to all persons who are or not, but the right to be deported is additional or simultaneously with the right to live or settle in part of the area of India that is guaranteed on the basis of Article 19 (1).

“If they are foreigners according to the law of the foreigners, they must be deported,” said Justice Data in response to a plea submitted by lawyer Colin Gonsalves and lawyer Prashant Bhushan for Rohingya refugees.
