Undocumented migrant Gujaratis self-deport amid US crackdown

AHMEDABAD: Several villages in north Gujarat have witnessed an influx of people in the past few months as undocumented migrants in the US are self-deporting, fearing detention there as the Trump administration has enforced immigration laws reports Ashish Chauhan.“They no longer have the option of shelter or asylum and want to avoid legal trouble. That’s why they are leaving voluntarily,” Pranav Patel, a visa consultant in Gandhinagar district’s Kalol, told TOI. A source put the number of such self-deportees at no less than 220. A recent case involves a 65-year-old Mehsana resident who had entered the US illegally in 2009. He returned to Gujarat via Delhi on July 7.
