Jaipur: Eleven Bangladeshi nationals, including six minors, living illegally in Jaipur have been deported to their country on Sunday.

Police also arrested two locals for facilitating their stay in the city, Deputy Commissioner of Police (West), Amit Kumar, said.

The Bangladeshi nationals were first sent to a detention centre in Alwar from where they were deported to their country on Sunday with the help of the Border Security Force (BSF), the DCP said.
