117 Chinese nationals were deported for indulging in illegal acts, MHA informs Lok Sabha

Subject: Polity

81 Chinese nationals were given “Leave India Notice”; 726 were placed on adverse list
The government maintains the records of foreigners (including Chinese nationals) who enter with valid travel documents, but some of them overstay beyond the visa period owing to ignorance or under compelling circumstances like a medical emergency or other personal reasons.
In genuine cases, where overstay is unintentional or because of ignorance or under compelling circumstances, the period of overstay is regularised after charging the penalty fees and the visa is extended if required
Action is initiated as per the Foreigners Act 1946 , if they overstay intentionally or unjustifiably, which includes the issuance of a Leave India Notice and charging penalty.
The MHA has also ordered CBI probe to probe irregularities in the issuance of visas to Chinese employees.

Model Poisons Rules

The MHA has circulated the Model Poisons Rules to all states and Union Territories to notify them to regulate the sale of acid for the purpose of curbing attacks on women.
As per data published by the National Crime Records Bureau, 386 cases of acid attacks on women were reported from States over three years, beginning in 2018.
The Poisons Act, 1919, demands states and UTs regulate the possession and sale of acids and corrosive chemicals, including wholesale and retail sales, through their Poison Rules.
No data is maintained centrally on sale of acids and corrosive chemicals.
