Deported Rohingya men didn’t get Myanmar nationality as India claimed and the Supreme Court believed

Myanmar has issued national verification cards to the seven men deported by India on October 4, which can only get them citizenship if a 1982 law is amended.

“They [the seven deported Rohingyas] were found to be illegal immigrants and their country of origin, Myanmar, has recognised them as Myanmar citizens,” Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi had said on October 4 while refusing to grant an urgent hearing to a plea to stop their deportation.
