The Supreme Court has directed that no coercive action be taken against a Srinagar resident and his family, who are currently facing deportation. The order comes as the court considers the family’s plea challenging the deportation process.
The bench emphasized that the authorities must refrain from taking any forced steps until a final decision is made in the matter. The petitioner, along with his family, has argued that deportation would violate their fundamental rights and sought protection under Indian laws.
The court has issued notices to the concerned authorities, seeking their response, and assured that the case would be examined in detail. Meanwhile, the family has been granted temporary relief, bringing a sense of respite as they await the next hearing.
The case has attracted attention due to its human rights implications and the broader legal debate on the deportation of individuals claiming long-term residence.
