because the i have serious problems on a personal level and i was unable to live their lives i'm going to. want to know their story. stereophonic and reliable information for my clients. this is the news coming up in the program is india discriminating against muslim refugees a new offer citizenship to most persecuted refuse. to leave your expats plus. the torture. of a teenager. throws a spotlight on their views of domestic rocco's what needs to be done to stop.

it's good to have you with us the indian government is on its way to changing its citizenship laws the citizenship amendment bill makes it easier for refugees from. pakistan and bangladesh to in essence become india but there is a catch this new law will exclude muslim refugees who talks to two refugee families about their search sort of place to call home. to india. how family fled violence in. the family with targeted because they are sick. right there was always fighting there my sister was shot in the stomach my brother was shot in the foot both died we left everything behind in flight here. after coming to india jan p.

also lost her husband she now lives with her daughters in law and other family members in a small apartment in west delhi none of them have ballot papers a complicated application process for visas and citizenship has handicapped. the grandchildren don't have identity documents to get into school either even those who have been born in india i expected to obtain of gone passports but a proposed law that will grant citizenship to refugees like to empty my life has found their hopes. they have gone sic community has campaigned long and hard for this they see that they are indian by heritage. these people haven't had an identity for years this is a big problem they don't have passports this new bill will benefit a lot of people even the ones who have arrived more recently. but that doesn't mean all of gone migrants in delhi are celebrating. the bill eases the path to

citizenship for hindus six christians but not muslims. that into the saigon a family who arrived in india in two thousand and eleven they work together in their fourth floor apartment to make of gone on. a taste of home for the thousands of fellow refugees in the city they say they feel far safer here in delhi then back in mazar e sharif. and they're grateful that india has taken them in but it hasn't been easy . fabby couldn't get people for his first four years in india he waited a year to get his first visa which was valid for two weeks another year as we had got him a twenty be permanent now finally he has an eight month visa. he wishes his parents did not have to work he says citizenship would ease access to jobs and provide better incomes for him and with two brothers. but he has not

talked for the few of gone muslim refugees he knows who try to get citizenship what ejected. other people like in these. relations we are all the same situation. the right for the same level because all we are all human being for now fadi hopes to find a way to migrate west to europe or the us it has been seven years since he fled of constant but india does not feel like home either. for more the also of that report nima should just joins us now from delhi good to see you what really is the mortar here behind the government amending the citizenship act of one hundred fifty five. well british the narrative of the indian government is simple they are saying india stands by the prosecutor diligence

minorities all of the countries off of ghana stunned bangladesh and pakistan just a few days ago we had prime minister november and would be at a rally saying that india will stand by the to watch your children off mother india but there is a problem with this narrative claiming that everybody who is from these six non muslim religions can be assumed to be of indian origin also alongside that muslims are not possibly from india originally this feeds right into the hindu bias the policy of hindu bias that this nationalist government has been said to have over the last five years and this was see the slum a phobia that has been seen in this government over the last five years again with the bigger lections coming up this could be a move. to that hindu electorate but has there been any opposition told to divorce by the government i think citizenship on the basis of religion is problematic

opposition parties including the international congress have said this however there is also a more complicated part of the question this is reaching out in the northeastern states of india in assam for example there's a national registration of citizens over there does a sub nationalism going on the people of assam are fighting this bill because they are saying we only want to keep people who were here before a certain cut off your and we do not care what the religion this that people align hindus and allowing other religions in will basically affect the demography of the northeast or criticism coming in from different sides but this government is standing strong on that support for the spill. on the jersey shore reporting for us from turkey thank you very much. the indian government is standing strong on another key issue identifying. muslims this against the odds of the united nations which are stressed repeatedly that conditions in me and my aunt safe to

return to india is in prison to taking the line that the rohingya are not refugees but illegal immigrants hundreds of trying to flee to bung of theirs to avoid detention or deportation but they're not want to either. refute g.'s on the run again desperate not to be sent home over recent weeks hundreds of families of left india from bangladesh fleeing the threat of deportation back to me and my. adding yet when i see that we escaped by secretly crossing the border. we had to pay traffic is a lot of money. it was very tough for us. it took eight to nine days to get into bangladesh. well most ranger refugees sought shelter in bangladesh tens of thousands ended up in india. regard them as illegal aliens and a security threat and of called for mass deportations some forced to flee india say

they'd been living in the country for years. doing great the police in india never bothered us then the government started trying to force us back to me and. if someone was unwilling threaten to shoot us. many would be returning to this the united nations says myanmar is still too dangerous for egypt to go back to in ravager a kind state a military crackdown continues and i think violence is still rife. how could we go back with all the violence back only when this peace. and estimated one point two million ranger if you. are speaking to d.w. the country's foreign minister called on the world to share the burden is not our problem the problem is the global problem we have being affected today tomorrow

this problem. my fear that other countries will be affected by. it to the interest of my own money into the heart of the neighboring country if there is uncertainty it will create you know instead. and instead never is good for any country. for now the ranger remain in limbo unwanted in neighboring countries and able to return to their own. to pakistan now where the death of a sixteen year old domestic walk. bach the widespread outrage that made it all the way up to the country's ruling brought him from obscene social media desk has been following the story for us our welcome what happened exactly it's a very sad story bearish so according to social media reports the sixteen year old man by the name of was mel was working for a wealthy lahore household will see now this picture of her that has been

be silly children are meant to live not this never this some people directly called on the authorities for action like this twitter user we're about to see calling on the ministry of human rights of the government of pakistan to take a look or taken notice of the issue and that they would be grateful for for such action. the authorities are just going to turn into our courage they're after after this hashtag went viral as we mentioned the government the ruling party of pakistan had this to say on twitter they called on directly on the minister of human rights to look into the issue and they're looking into the matter and three women in connection with this attack have been indeed taken into custody and it remains to be seen what happened i don't know where does the law stand on this war what of the moles and baucus on the ground trial what can be done so that a case like this is never defeated again we. talked to some activists on the ground
