Supreme Court notice to Centre, Maharashtra officials over woman ‘pushed out’ into Bangladesh

India's Supreme Court has issued a notice to the central government and Maharashtra authorities after a petition filed by the son of a woman who was forced across the border into Bangladesh. The petition argues that her deportation occurred without a proper inquiry into her citizenship status and that she was denied a genuine opportunity to prove she is an Indian citizen.
