Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what recent representations they have made to the government of India regarding the forced deportation of Rohingya refugees.

We are aware of reports of Rohingya refugees being deported from India to Myanmar. The UK has been at the forefront of international efforts to support Rohingya refugees. We have contributed £406 million to the response in Bangladesh since 2017, and provided over £52 million to supporting the Rohingya and other Muslim minorities in Rakhine state, Myanmar.

The UK is committed to supporting human rights globally. The British High Commission in New Delhi and our diplomatic network across India engage Indian stakeholders on a range of human rights matters, working with Union and State Governments, and with civil society.
