Govt Cancels Visas Of Foreign Tableeghi Jamaat Members

The Central Government has told the Supreme Court that it has issued individual orders for cancellation of visas and blacklisting of over 2,500 foreign nationals, who participated in the Tableeghi Jamat event at Nizamuddin Markaz in March. "Cancellation of e-visa has been intimated to 1,502 foreigners, who were on e-visa, by email. However, 1,168 foreigners on regular visa could not be intimated regarding cancellation of the visa as their emails are not available with the Bureau of Immigration," the Centre said in an affidavit.
