Dhaliwal on Monday flayed the US security forces for removing their turbans and handcuffing them while emplaning the deportees on the third flight which landed on Sunday night.

He said the foreign policy of the Central Government proved to be a failure and despite constantly raising this issue, the Indian ministry of External Affairs has not been able to take it up with their counterparts in the US. He said if these illegally living people had to be brought back, the government could have brought them back in its own aircraft and there was no need to create panic in the country by bringing them back through a US military aircraft.
