The Supreme Court has rejected a plea by a Sri Lankan man seeking to stop his deportation from India. The man, once jailed for alleged links to the LTTE under the UAPA, claimed his life was at risk if he returned to Sri Lanka. He said his wife and children were living in India and that he came here on a valid visa. But the court said India is already struggling with its population and cannot shelter everyone. Justice Dipankar Datta remarked, “This is not a dharmashala.” The court also said fundamental rights under Articles 19 and 21 apply only to citizens. (PC: HT_PRINT)
