    The fact that modi’s government is trying to deport immigrants doesn’t mean that people don’t want to move there - in fact, the fact the gov is doing so is the whole point of the article

        Not sure why you felt the need to define both terms, but since you bring it up, note that refugees are a subset of immigrants.

        But none of what you’ve said addresses the point I was making; the fact that Modi is deporting refugees (who are, by definition, a form of immigrant) doesn’t mean that nobody wants to migrate to India.
