The Indian government has defended the use of Amritsar as a deportation hub for US flights carrying Indian deportees, despite objections from Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.

The sources added that 23 flights carrying Indian deportees have arrived in the country since May 2020, all landing in Amritsar.
