The Trump administration has been deporting undocumented immigrants of Indian origin since the first presidency of Donald Trump. According to Pew Research Center, undocumented immigrants of Indian origin made up the third-largest demographic in the US after Mexicans and Salvadorans in 2024. In February 2025, the Indian Enforcement Directorate began investigating 4,300 Indians suspected of entering the US illegally between 2021 and 2024.
On 5 February 2025, the US deported 104 Indian nationals on a military plane. This drew criticism from the political opposition in India. The deportation also attracted attention within the United States and elsewhere.
