Uttarakhand High Court Halts Deportation of Pakistani Sikh Family

HC tells Uttarakhand govt not to deport Pak Sikhs if they pose no threat

The Uttarakhand High Court has halted the deportation of a Pakistani Sikh family residing in Dehradun on a long-term visa. The court directed the state government not to deport them unless they pose a national security risk. The family, in India since 2019, challenged a 24-hour departure notice, citing their valid visa and children's education.
