The BBC reported that three months after the Rohingya were moved from Delhi, contact was made with many of them. According to the British media, the Rohingya refugees were flown from Delhi to an island in the Bay of Bengal. However, many Rohingya seeking refuge in India have instead been dangerously sent out to sea near Myanmar’s coast, where they face conflict and insecurity. Rohingya rights activists often express concern about their situation in India, which does not recognise Rohingya as refugees but treats them as “illegal immigrants” under its laws. FROM DELHI TO ANDAMAN TO MYANMARThere are 23,800 Rohingya refugees in India registered with the UNHCR, the UN's refugee agency.
