London, February 11 – After the United States ramped up deportations of illegal immigrants, the United Kingdom has now intensified its own crackdown, targeting 19,000 foreigners, including a significant number of Indians, who are illegally residing and working in the country.
Mass Deportation Begins in the UK
The British government has initiated large-scale deportation proceedings, focusing on individuals who have settled without proper documentation. Among those affected, Indians working in restaurants, small businesses, and remote farms are now under heightened scrutiny.
7 Indians Arrested in Immigration Raids
As part of the latest immigration enforcement operations, seven Indians working illegally in restaurants were arrested. Officials have confirmed that they will be deported back to India as part of the broader effort to remove undocumented workers from the country.
Labor Government’s Strict Immigration Policy
The ruling Labor Party had prepared a list of 19,000 illegal immigrants, and authorities have already begun deportation procedures. The government has also launched investigations into businesses suspected of employing illegal workers, particularly in the hospitality and agricultural sectors.
Rising Concerns Among Indian Workers
The crackdown has sparked fear and uncertainty among thousands of Indian workers in the UK, especially those in small businesses, retail stores, and farming communities. With increasing enforcement measures, many are now seeking legal assistance to avoid deportation.
What’s Next?
With deportations already underway, immigration authorities have signaled stricter checks and workplace raids in the coming months. Indians and other foreign nationals staying without valid visas are advised to regularize their status or prepare for possible removal.
