Uttarakhand High Court Stays Deportation of Pakistani Sikh Family Pending Security ReviewPreviousNext

The Uttarakhand High Court has temporarily stayed the deportation of a Pakistani Sikh family residing in Dehradun on a long-term visa valid until December 2026. The court ruled they should not be deported unless they pose a national security threat. The family challenged a state government order directing them to leave within 24 hours. The court has asked the Centre and state governments to jointly review the case and submit their response before the next hearing scheduled for mid-June.
