New Delhi: Senora Begum, a woman from Myanmar filed a petition in the Delhi High Court. In response, the central government on Wednesday told the Delhi High Court that it had received data through security agencies that pointed to illegal Rohingya migrants having links with Pakistan-based terrorist organizations. It has been told in the affidavit that this is a matter of serious concern from the point of view of the security of the country. The Central Government said that as per the policy of the Government of India, such illegal foreigners should be deported back to their country of origin subject to verification of their nationality in consultation with the Ministry of External Affairs.

It is noteworthy that the woman had filed a petition on 20 September. This petition was against the decision of the Ministry of Home Affairs. The ministry had rejected the exit permit applications of the woman and her three children to leave India. The woman wanted to move to America with her three children. The government said that the main concern is that illegal migrants continue to come through agents from Myanmar. These people are entering India through Benapole-Haridaspur (West Bengal), Hili (West Bengal) and Sonmora (Tripura), Kolkata and Guwahati.

The Center further said that this situation is causing serious damage to national security. The Center, in an affidavit filed before Justice Yashwant Verma, said that due to the already existing large influx of illegal migrants from neighbouring countries, there has been a serious change in the demographic situation of some of the bordering states of India which creates complications in various contexts. 

The central government's affidavit has come in response to a plea by a woman who claims to be a citizen of Myanmar. The woman says that she is not a Rohingya. The woman has challenged the decision of the Ministry of Home Affairs and Foreigners Regional Registration Office not to allow him to leave India and go to the US. The woman has said in her petition that she and her husband Nurul Amin have been victims of persecution in their home country of Myanmar. They got married in 2004 after settling in a refugee camp in Bangladesh.

Amin moved to the US in 2015, acquired citizenship of the country and obtained permanent residency visas for the petitioners. Now he is trying to take his family there too. But when the petitioner and her children came to India from the Kutupalong refugee camp in Bangladesh and applied for an exit permit, the authorities asked them to submit a NOC from the Embassy of Myanmar and an affidavit regarding their recent travel. However, the family said that they are 'stateless' people and they cannot get NoC.
