Ill intention evident right from task force formation on Bhutanese refugees, watchers say

Government authorities had gone ahead with their plan despite the UNHCR’s clarification that third-country resettlement of the refugees left behind would not happen.

A malafide intention is visible from the very beginning of the formation of a task force meant to manage Bhutanese refugees who were left behind after the third country resettlement programme ended, say officials and experts.
