Video Description

Harjit Singh crossed the border into the U.S. a week after Donald Trump came into office. He was immediately deported. Punjabi migrants are among the largest group of people who were sent back to India from the U.S. this year. The men deported after trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border said economic difficulties back home forced them to take the difficult journey.
