AMRITSAR, India—A U.S. military plane carrying 104 deported Indian illegal immigrants landed in India on Wednesday, authorities said, part of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda a week before he is expected to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Washington.

Migration has been among the key issues discussed by India and the United States since Trump assumed office last month, and is also expected to come up during Trump’s talks with Modi.
