Jammu and Kashmir Deport 150 Illegal Bangladeshi Nationals to West Bengal
Authorities in Jammu and Kashmir have deported 150 Bangladeshi nationals found residing illegally in the Union Territory.

This action is part of a broader effort following a survey identifying around 600 illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in the region. Another group of 150 is scheduled for deportation on October 7. The process is coordinated by local police and security agencies.
