At least 104 Indian citizens were deported from the United States Tuesday night on a military aircraft, according to officials from India’s Punjab state, as US President Donald Trump makes stemming migration a top priority.

A US deportation flight carrying about 100 Indian nationals accused of entering the country illegally has landed in the state of Punjab. The military aircraft, which left Texas late on Tuesday, is now in the city of Amritsar where authorities say they have put measures in place to process the deportees.

Some Indian nationals who allegedly illegally migrated to the United States and were deported back to the country arrived on Thursday at Ahmedabad airport in Gujarat. A US military C-17 Globemaster military aircraft landed in Punjab’s Amritsar on February 5 with 104 Indian nationals.

The military plane carrying illegal Indian immigrants landed in the northern city of Amritsar, deporting an unspecified number of people as part of President Donald Trump's immigration agenda.
