How can I remove myself from India's visa blacklist?
I am a Bangladeshi citizen. Back in 2013, I went to India with a tourist visa and overstayed for four days. It was due to a gout attack in my feet but I don't have my medical papers to prove that.
I applied again in 2015 for a visa, at Dhaka, and they refused my visa and blacklisted my passport, writing some numbers and date on it. Now I am not able to get an Indian visa.
How I can remove my passport from the blacklist and get a new Indian visa? Do I need a Indian immigration lawyer to do this?

Only MHA Foreigners' Section has the provision to remove the name from black list. If you obtain a visa from Embassy but your name is not removed from the list, when you land, the Airport Immigration officer will deport you back even if you have genuine visa. Daily several passengers are getting denied entry and sent back on the same return flight.
