Contribute now New Delhi: Two days after a video circulated showing a young man purportedly of Indian nationality being restrained by the authorities apparently at the Newark airport in New Jersey, India has raised the issue with the US embassy in Delhi but has not been given the details of the situation, officials said on Tuesday (June 10). The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has 'formally raised the matter with the US embassy in New Delhi', while the Indian embassy in Washington and the consulate in New York 'have been in touch' with American authorities to ascertain the details of the incident, official sources said. However they have 'so far have not received any details about the incident or the circumstances under which' the young man 'was restrained, the flight he had to board or boarded and his final destination', they added. 'We continue to follow up on the matter.' Kunal Jain, an X user who has said he is an entrepreneur and a US national of Indian origin, posted photos and videos on Sunday of a young man being restrained and pinned to the ground by the authorities at what he said was the Newark Liberty International Airport on the outskirts of New York City. The young man's identity remains unknown. Jain claimed that he could be heard saying in Haryanvi-accented Hindi that he was not insane despite the authorities there trying to portray him as such. Among those restraining the man were seen wearing gear labelled as that of the police department of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs airports, seaports, bridges and tunnels that connect the two states. Jain also claimed that the young man was set to board the same flight as him from Newark to New Delhi but that the 'pilot stepped out, saw the situation and refused to allow [him] to board'. Reposting Jain's photos, Congress MP and communications general secretary Jairam Ramesh earlier on Tuesday accused the Modi government of 'failing to protect the honour of India and Indians'. Also referring to US President Donald Trump's claims that Washington mediated the ceasefire between India and Pakistan following their four-day-long military conflict on May 10, Ramesh wrote on X that Prime Minister Narendra Modi 'has not been able to summon the courage to speak – either on the ceasefire or on the atrocities being perpetrated against Indians in the US'. Modi ought to speak to Trump and call for American intervention in 'the atrocities happening against Indians and the fear that has gripped lakhs of Indian students in America', he added. The airport incident occurs against the backdrop of hundreds of international students and graduates in the US, Indian citizens among them, reporting having their visas revoked by the Trump administration. Some of them have approached the courts for relief. The MEA, which said it was 'supporting' Indian students in America who were facing issues with their student visas and reached out to India's missions, had earlier said that Indian citizens abroad must comply with local laws.
