Assam district orders deportation of man declared foreigner

An Assam district has ordered the deportation of a man who was declared a foreigner by a tribunal. The order was issued by the district administration following a court directive.

The man, whose identity has not been disclosed, was found to have entered India illegally. The Foreigners Tribunal had declared him a foreigner after examining his documents.

The district administration has been instructed to complete the deportation process. The man is currently in detention pending his removal from the country.

This case is part of a broader effort in Assam to identify and deport illegal immigrants. The state has been updating its National Register of Citizens to address the issue.
