The Supreme Court of India criticized the conditions at Assam’s Matia detention centre, highlighting the lack of water, sanitation, food, and medical facilities. Built at ₹64 crore, this centre detains those with dubious citizenship. The court questioned the responsibilities of the State and Union governments and sought a detailed report from Assam's Legal Services Authority and a response on deportation status from the Union government within three weeks. The case will be reviewed on September 9.
