It added that the Government of Delhi proposed to shift the Rohingyas to a new location, adding that MHA has directed the GNCTD to ensure that the Rohingya illegal foreigners will continue at the present location as MHA has already taken up the matter of their deportation with the concerned country through Ministry of External Affairs.
The Ministry also said that illegal foreigners are to be kept in detention centres till their deportation as per law. The Government of Delhi has not declared the present location as a detention centre.
The clarification from the Ministry comes hours after Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri tweeted that Rohingya refugees from Myanmar in Delhi will be allotted apartments and provided with police protection.
