Nine retired Indian judges, including former Supreme Court justices, have written a letter to G20 leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging them to consider repatriating Indian children separated from their parents by state child agencies in Western Europe, the UK, US, Australia, and New Zealand. The judges argue that isolating these children from their families and kin leads to identity loss and advocate for a more compassionate solution, emphasizing the need for cultural understanding and good-quality translators in child protection proceedings. The letter references cases in Norway, the US, Germany, and Australia.
