The Supreme Court served a reality-check to the Rohingyas and their tall claims of being left at sea by Indian authorities! However, they have been given the right to appeal again based on a UN special report.
Please note – India never signed up to be a dumping ground for foreign crises.
Yet, in court after court, activists wave UNHCR refugee cards like Willie Wonka’s golden tickets. But here’s the truth: India doesn’t recognize those cards, never agreed to host Rohingyas, and owes them nothing. No treaty, no promise, no right. Rohingyas have no legal right to be in Bharat!
‘Beautifully Crafted’ Rohingyas Deportation Allegations
A PIL was filed by two Rohingya refugees claims that 43 individuals, including children, women, elderly, and even cancer patients, were forcibly deported by the Indian government to Myanmar.
But they allage they were not just deported – allegedly thrown into international waters from naval ships, blindfolded and with hands tied, after being tricked into biometric collection by Delhi Police.
They claim that after biometric data collection in Delhi, they were taken to Inderlok Detention Centre, then flown to Port Blair. Authorities allegedly lied, telling them they were being sent to Indonesia, but they were ultimately abandoned near Myanmar shores.
Allegedly, when they sawm to shore using life jackets, they realized they are back in their native country. The same nation they had fled from due to their own acts of intolernace of non-Muslims. The Indian petitioners for these Rohingyas claim to have received phone calls and tape recordings from the deportees from Myanmar.
The Supreme Court’s Stand on Rohingyas
A bench of Justice Surya Kant and Justice N Kotiswar Singh refused to pass interim orders halting future deportations. They observed that the three-judge bench (also headed by Justice Kant) had declined similar relief on May 8.
The Supreme Court questioned the credibility of the claims, calling the story “beautifully crafted” but lacking evidence.
Additionally, the SC rejected urgent hearing requests and listed the matter with other pending petitions on July 31, 2025. Justice Kant: “What is the material to substantiate your allegations?” In repsonse – Senior Advocate Colin Gonsalves (for petitioners): Cited a UN Human Rights Report and phone calls from the deported refugees.
Justice Kant: “All these people sitting outside cannot challenge our sovereignty.”
The court reiterated: if refugees do not have a legal right to stay, deportation under the law is valid. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta maintained that the Union is bound by earlier Supreme Court orders that permit deportation of foreigners as per legal procedures.
UN Cards Don’t Mean Citizenship for Rohingyas
In 2023, the Supreme Court was hearing on the detention of a Rohingya man. The Government of India said what was obvious all along: UNHCR refugee cards have no legal standing in India. India has not signed the 1951 Refugee Convention or its 1967 Protocol.
That means UN-issued refugee IDs don’t grant anyone the right to stay in India – They’re just laminated illusions with no constitutional weight.
India’s position is rooted in law. Under the 1946 Foreigners Act and the 1955 Citizenship Act, anyone who enters the country without valid documentation is an illegal immigrant. Rohingyas, despite UNHCR tags or foreign sympathy, fall in this category. They are not refugees by Indian law. They are trespassers.
India never agreed to host Rohingyas.
There was no treaty, no MoU, no bilateral understanding, and certainly no parliamentary resolution. So how can any self-appointed refugee body or lawyer claim otherwise? Why do the Human Rights organizations encourage these illegal “Ghuspethiye”?
Appealling While Being Illegal Foreign Trespassers?
The more disturbing question is: Why are Indian lawyers routinely appearing in court to defend the settlement of illegal Rohingyas? Are they upholding the Constitution? Or misusing it to override national sovereignty?
The Rohingya issue isn’t just about displaced people – It’s about illegal entry.
Their settlement on Indian soil is a deliberate demographic manipulation and national security risk. Intelligence agencies have red-flagged Rohingyas’ involvement in criminal syndicates and radical networks. But human rights activists of Delulu Land rush to court every time a Rohingya is detained pay no heed to the reality. Their argument? Humanitarianism.
But let’s be clear—no amount of UN paperwork can overwrite Indian law.
India has a long, proud tradition of offering asylum. Bharat accomodated Parsis, Tibetans, and Sri Lankan Tamils. However, each case followed due process. Rohingyas? They just walked in thanks to vote bank politics. These counsels are asking the courts to legitimize their stay. They want India to accept an international label that it never recognized. Do they want India to bow down to an unelected, foreign body that doesn’t even operate under Indian law?
The Line Is Clear: No UN Badge Can Trump Indian Borders
India has drawn a clear line. It has said it in Parliament. It has said it in court. And it will say it again, if needed: being tagged a refugee by the UN doesn’t make you a legal resident in India.
This isn’t about religion or race – It’s about law, sovereignty, and security.
Every nation has the right to decide who gets to stay. And India has decided: that Rohingyas have no right to reside in the country. So the next time a counsel appears in court clutching a UNHCR card, perhaps the first question should be – Are you representing Indian interests or someone else’s?
