Shaurya Chakra Awardee's Mother, CRPF Jawan's Wife, J&K Constable Among Possible Pakistan Deportees
Shamima Akhtar, mother of Shaurya Chakra awardee Mudasir Ahmad Shaikh, is among 60 women being deported to Pakistan after the Pahalgam terror attack.
Mother of a Shaurya Chakdra awardee, wife of a CPRF jawan, and a Jammu and Kashmir Police constable are on the list of authorities who would be deported to Pakistan in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack.
Shamima Akhtar, the mother of Shaurya Chakra winner police constable Mudasir Ahmad Shaikh, is one of the 60 people being deported to Pakistan. Shaikh died in May 2022 while fighting terrorists. He was posthumously awarded the Shaurya Chakra.
A Pakistani national, who married a jawan of the Central Reserve Police Force, has been sent back from Jammu for deportation to Pakistan.
On the list also include a police constable, Iftikhar Ali, who has been detained at the police station.
In the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack last week, the Centre announced a slew of measures, including suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, downgrading diplomatic relations with Islamabad, and ordering all Pakistanis on short-term visas to leave India by April 27 or face action.
The 60 deportees comprise wives and children of ex-militants, who returned to the valley under the 2010 rehabilitation policy for former ultras.
Of them, 36 had been living in Srinagar, nine each in Baramulla and Kupwara, four in Budgam, and two in Shopian district, officials said.
