The costly journey Indian migrants face to reach the U.S.

Season 2025 Episode 161 | 9m 23s

India is one of the largest sources of immigrants to the U.S. with nearly 150,000 arriving each year. While the majority of Indians arrive legally, an estimated 200,000 are now believed to be improperly documented. Many come from relatively affluent regions of India, including the state of Punjab, where several hundred deportees were returned on U.S. military aircraft. Fred de Sam Lazaro reports.
