The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed President Donald Trump to partially effect the travel ban on 6 Islamic-majority countries.
The US President had previously banned Muslims from 7 countries to come to the United States, but the court rejected this ban. After this, the President of the United States was included the citizens of the 6 countries in the list. These included the citizens of Syria, Libya, Iran, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.
In the new list, Trump has removed Iraq's name from the ban list. Trump criticized the court's order to ban the travel ban, saying it was 'a very bad decision, a very bad decision for the security of our country'.
The order of imposing travel ban on 6 countries of Trump was rejected by the courts of many states. A federal judge in Hawaii was banned just hours before President Donald Trump's revised travel ban was effective.
US District Judge Derrick Watson ruled that the State of Hawaii had firmly established that in relation to the legal order given to Trump's executive order, that if this ban is extended then it would be 'inadequate damage'.
