In the aftermath of the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, India ordered the expulsion of Pakistani nationals, leading to a sudden and painful border closure. Families with cross-border ties—especially couples and elderly relatives—were torn apart as hundreds were forced to return to their countries via the Attari-Wagah crossing. Many had lived in India for years, often waiting on long-pending visa extensions or citizenship approvals. This move, driven by rising political tensions, has left emotional scars and highlighted the deep human cost of deteriorating India-Pakistan relations. (PC: Al Jazeera)
