KEY POINTS

·        According to the UN, over 82.4 million people were forced to leave their homes in 2020 and more than 20 million of them are refugees.

·        Welcoming refugees lies at the core of India’s secular, spiritual and cultural values.

·        Interventions on refugee assistance in India have largely depended on interim policies and administrative decisions.

·        refugees have contributed significantly to India’s economy — as well as culturally. The manufacturing, automotive, retail, hospitality and food industries bear the positive imprints of their endeavours.

·        Treatment of refugees must receive the same attention that other human rights protection issues receive  this is consistent with the constitutional emphasis on the rule of law.

·        This is also an important national security consideration that cannot be relegated to a bureaucratic exercise as it is currently.

·        It will also provide a platform for dialogue on sharing responsibility and aid the search for durable solutions to the root causes of a refugee problem.

·        The law should differentiate between various categories of refugees and migrants and assign each a relevant form of protection.

·        It should anticipate secondary movements and protect the most vulnerable. Progressive states and economic powerhouses like India, with traditional experience and values, can serve as catalysts for global humanitarian action and asylum management.

·        The current global refugee and economic crises present an opportunity for India to better calibrate its asylum management by enacting a national refugee law.
