Description: Rohingyas have been arbitrarily deprived of their nationality and persecuted in Myanmar, while also being denied adequate protection as refugees and stateless persons in neighbouring countries. Since 2017, Rohingyas in India have faced a deteriorating protection situation. The legal status of Rohingyas in the country has become increasingly precarious, leaving them at risk of forced repatriation or refoulement to Myanmar as well as arbitrary arrest and indefinite detention. Further, the erosion of status and protections for Rohingyas in India has impacted living conditions and access to services, leading to increasing insecurities and vulnerabilities.

This briefing paper has been developed as a resource for those advocating for stronger protection for Rohingyas in India. It provides an overview of the situation since 2017 and describes the impact of the deteriorating protection context on the Rohingya community.
