Modi’s U.S. Visit Overshadowed by Outrage Over Shackled Deportees

As Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi meets former U.S. President Donald Trump, a storm of outrage brews over the treatment of Indian deportees, who were allegedly shackled and mistreated during repatriation. Human rights advocates have condemned the act as “inhuman,” calling for accountability and reform.

Reports suggest that several Indian nationals, detained for immigration violations, were deported in chains—a practice critics argue is demeaning and unnecessary. Activists claim such treatment reflects a broader crackdown on migrants under Trump-era policies, reigniting concerns over human rights violations.

The timing of this controversy is striking, casting a shadow over Modi’s high-profile visit. While both leaders focus on diplomatic and trade discussions, the outcry over deportation practices threatens to strain perceptions of U.S.-India relations.

As public pressure mounts, demands for an official response grow louder. Whether this issue will be addressed in diplomatic talks remains uncertain, but for now, the debate over dignity, human rights, and immigration policies rages on.
