Some 107 Pakistani nationals appear to have gone missing in the Indian state of Maharashtra after the expiration of their visas, the Hindustan Times said in a report published on Tuesday.

To a query raised by members of the Bharatiya Janata Party, Maharashtra Home Minister RR Patil said 60 Pakistani nationals were living in the state without any permit or visa, despite local authorities being aware of their whereabouts.

Additionally, until December 31, 2012, 5,807 Pakistani nationals were found to be living in Maharashtra. Of these, 1,975 were issued long-terms visas, while 72 had short-term visas. Patil said requests made by 2,144 Pakistanis had been put forward to the Centre and state for visa extension, but these were still pending.

He said 1,330 Pakistanis were living in the state on visit visas, of which 177 were in the country for training, conferences and medical treatment.

He refused to acknowledge any delay on the part of the state to filter illegal immigrants, saying police authorities and state intelligence agencies had been directed to find them and to take appropriate action. He signed off saying some cases were also being heard by courts.

  1. i also want to go to India
    Take me & my family on & save us from this Pakistan if Zardari & Nawaz & if Imran comes to power
    yes we will only stay in Pakistan if Musharraf come Back

  2. Yea go to India and taste slums a little and soon realize tht Pakistan was far better than there…………if u blame Zardari for corruption, then Indian Politicans are also far more corrupt than us, ……………India is not Europe,

    • but according to transparency ranking pakistan was far more corrupt than india and china and also largest slum in world is in karachi orangi…and watch out for drones buddy 😉

  3. Hamza! between the two devils (India & Pak), Indian option is much better. At least one has much more possibility of survival and prosperity. Look at Rahat Fateh Ali, Atif Aslam, Wasim Akram, Veena Malik etc. They got more prosperity & fame while being in India. Hence, do not be an emotional fool, if you are resourceful, then better go and stay in India.
