India’s Parliament witnessed heated protests on Thursday after a US military aircraft deported 104 Indian migrants. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar defended the deportations, calling them a “standard procedure,” while assuring efforts to prevent mistreatment. Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, condemned the incident, with MPs staging protests wearing handcuffs. “This is inhuman treatment,” said Congress MP Ranjeet Ranjan. The US deportation policy under Trump has triggered diplomatic concerns, with Opposition leaders demanding urgent government intervention. Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla urged MPs to avoid disruptions, emphasizing the need for smooth parliamentary proceedings.
