An estimated half a million Indians living illegally in the United States. This half a million Indians could be among those targeted under the Donald Trump administration’s immigration plans unveiled to aggressively “facilitate the detection, apprehension, detention, and removal (deportation)” of undocumented immigrants.
What is immigration policy?
An immigration policy is any policy of a state that deals with the transit of people across its borders into the country, but especially those that intend to work and stay in the country.U.S. immigration law is very complex, and there is much confusion as to how it works. The Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA), the body of law governing current immigration policy, provides for an annual worldwide limit of 675,000 permanent immigrants, with certain exceptions for close family.
There are an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants in the US, and upwards of 8 million of them are expected to find themselves targeted under the new immigration policy. Only those who were illegally brought in to the country as children and the parents of children born here will be exempt.
The Indian government is aware that its nationals are illegally residing in the US, but does not know how many there are, for which it has relied on estimates by American think tanks and research groups. However, it expects to hear from the Trump administration if and when Indians are rounded up for deportation, as is the procedure.
