She said the Indian Government should take cognizance of the matter and lodge a strong protest with the US. “India should have sent its own aircraft to bring back its citizens the way Cambodia brought did in a respectful manner. The unfortunate incident makes it clear that the BJP government is not concerned about the prestige of the country and its citizens,” she added.

Meanwhile, the Congress, led by national president of the Indian Youth Congress Uday Bhanu Chib, took out a march from the Congress headquarters to the Raj Bhawan and submitted a memorandum to the Governor to protest the deportation of the Indians in handcuffs and the failure of the Central government to prevent it.
