All unwanted guests will be treated with the same gesture,” he added.It was not immediately clear when the operation was conducted.Live EventsAdd as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!
Asserting that his government was committed to making the state infiltration-free, Sarma earlier said that each week at least 35-40 people are being “pushed back”, a mechanism that bypasses the time-consuming legal procedure of deportation.(You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel)
