Its even stupid to defend such behaviour! I jst fail to understand why we (Indians)justify anything which our country fails at.
I completely disagree with the comments posted here favouring or justifying the behaviour of the Immigrations authority.
Someone wrote that if u have young kids then the rules dont change for you. Well, let me tell u one thing mister, any authority/country that functions by rule book only without putting the law/rule in the context is stupid. You have to show mercy for the fact that there are young children here and its only a VISA issue not like they smuggled something. Besides, are the authorities saying that they have excellent controls over people entering the country illegaly!
They could've asked the parents to sign a bond and could've given them more than jst 45 mins!
And guys stop blaming people who live outside....It aint like they committed a crime. and jst by living in India u havent done a lot for the country!
