Jammu: Union home minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday indicated that some action will be taken with regard to deportation of Rohingyas, who are considered to be a security threat to Jammu and Kashmir.
Talking to reporters here, Singh said the Centre has a tough stand towards illegal migrants but a “sympathetic view” towards those displaced within the country and the minorities of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh who have become refugees in this country.
To a question on deportation of foreigners from Jammu and Kashmir, he said, “we are discussing the issue of illegal migrants and some action will be taken.”
The home minister was asked about government’s stand on deportation of Rohingyas from Jammu as they are considered to be a security threat to Jammu and Kashmir.
“We cannot rule out the possibility of security threat and I have already cleared our stand with regard to illegal immigrants,” the home minister replied.
