A Kashmiri Pandit academic, Professor Nitasha Kaul, based in the United Kingdom, faced a troubling situation at the hands of Indian government upon her arrival at Bengaluru airport.

According to Kashmir Media Service, invited by the Congress-led Karnataka government to participate in the ‘Constitution and National Unity Convention – 2024’, Professor Kaul was denied entry into India and subsequently deported to the UK.

Professor Kaul, a professor at the University of Westminster, expressed her dismay over the lack of explanation provided by immigration officials at Bengaluru airport regarding the denial of entry. Despite being invited by the Karnataka government, she claimed to have received no prior notice from the Indian government regarding the decision.

“Denied entry to India for speaking on democratic & constitutional values. I was invited to a conference as esteemed delegate by Govt of Karnataka (Congress-ruled state) but Centre refused me entry. All my documents were valid & current (UK passport & OCI),” she said, sharing pictures of the invitation extended to her by the Karnataka government and other conference-related communications.—KMS
