Rohingya issue India

The Supreme Court on Friday came close to ordering the government not to deport the Rohingya.
It finally settled on merely observing that a balance should be struck between humanitarian concern for the community and the country's national security and economic interests.The court was hearing a bunch of petitions, one filed by persons belonging to the community, against a proposed move to deport over 40,000 Rohingya refugees.A three-judge Bench, led by Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra, began by orally indicating that the government should not deport Rohingya “now”, but the government prevailed on the court to not pass any formal order, citing “international ramifications.” With this, the status quo continues even though the court gave the community the liberty to approach it in case of “any contingency.”The court deferred the case to November 21 for detailed hearing. It will reopen after the Deepavali holidays on October 23.
“Take action wherever you find wrong, but do not deport now,” Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra initially told Additional Solicitor-General Tushar Mehta.
Senior advocate Fali Nariman, arguing for the Rohingya, said, “In case of any difficulty, we will come here.” But Mr. Mehta objected, asking the court why the question of deportation should come up for debate at this stage.The government said “questions pertaining to deportation of illegal immigrants is essentially an executive function”.“We know what to do... if Your Lordships say anything, it will have international ramifications. No such contingency has arrived so far,” Mr. Mehta submitted.
“Make sure no such contingency arrives, in case of which petitioners [Rohingya] can come [to SC],” the Bench observed at one point.
