“I’m now India’s daughter-in-law”: Seema Haider pleads to stay amid visa ban for Pakistanis

Seema Haider, who crossed into India illegally from Pakistan in 2023 to marry her Indian partner, faces possible deportation after India suspended visas for Pakistani nationals in response to the Pahalgam terror attack. She now lives in Greater Noida with her husband and newborn daughter. In a video appeal to Prime Minister Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, she urges to remain in India, claiming her citizenship is now tied to her Indian husband and that she no longer belongs to Pakistan.
