#TRUMP Ends TPS for Nepal: 7,500 Hindus Face Deportation ๐จ
๐ What is TPS?
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is a U.S. government program that offers safety to people fleeing hardship in their home countries ๐. For years, Nepali citizens benefited from TPS following the devastating 2015 earthquake ๐๏ธ that shook their nation.
๐ But Things Just Changedโฆ
The Trump administration has now revoked TPS for Nepal, claiming that the situation there has stabilized. As a result, 7,500 Nepali citizens, many of them Hindus, may now be forced to leave the U.S. ๐โ๏ธ
๐ A Pattern of Exclusion?
This move follows earlier actions where the U.S. barred entry or removed protection for people from Muslim-majority countries like Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, Sudan, Syria, and Afghanistan. Now, the focus shifts to Nepali Hindus โ sparking concerns about a broader policy of selective immigration ๐ซ๐.
๐ฐ๏ธ A History of Protection
TPS was first granted to Nepal in 2015, when the country was reeling from one of the worst earthquakes in its history. The status allowed affected individuals to live and work in the U.S. legally.
While Trump initially tried to end this in 2017, the move was blocked. But now, under new legal interpretations, the protection has officially been lifted.
โ ๏ธ Whatโs Next?
Affected families are left uncertain about their future, with many calling the decision sudden and unfair. Advocacy groups are pushing back, urging the government to reconsider based on humanitarian grounds ๐
๐ญ Final Thought
Whether it's about policy, politics, or people โ this move reminds us that compassion should never expire. Letโs stay informed and stand in solidarity with those facing upheaval. ๐๐
