Jammu Administration Evicts Rohingya Settlements Amid Rising Displacement Concerns
The Jammu district administration has intensified efforts to clear illegal Rohingya settlements, removing over 7,000 individuals and dismantling structures across several areas including Narwal and Bathindi. Eviction notices were served to landowners, leading many Rohingya families, some residing for over a decade, to lose their homes and shops without alternative accommodation. Residents, including vulnerable groups, face uncertainty and homelessness amid limited access to basic services. Authorities have increased monitoring to prevent new settlements and warned against sheltering Rohingya families elsewhere.
