Former US President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has vowed to end illegal immigration and facilitate legal entry, a policy that could benefit communities like Indian-Americans who often enter the US through legal channels such as H-1B visas.

Trump made these remarks at the Republican National Convention, where he accepted the party's nomination for the November 5th general elections. He promised to close the border and complete the wall, highlighting that much of it has already been built during his tenure.

Trump criticized the current administration for undoing his border security policies and emphasized the importance of legal entry, noting that illegal immigration has caused crime, corruption, and job losses, particularly affecting Black and Hispanic communities. He described the situation as a 'massive invasion' at the southern border, resulting in widespread socio-economic issues.
