MEMORANDUM **

Balbir Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions pro se for review of an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) determination under 8 C.F.R. § 1208.31(a) that he did not have a reasonable fear of persecution or torture and thus is not entitled to relief from his administrative removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the IJ’s factual findings. Andrade-Garcia v. Lynch, 828 F.3d 829, 833 (9th Cir. 2016). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s conclusion that Singh failed to demonstrate a reasonable possibility of persecution on account of a protected ground. See Ayala v. Holder, 640 F.3d 1095, 1097-98 (9th Cir. 2011) (mistreatment motivated purely by personal retribution does not bear a nexus to a protected ground); Gonzalez-Medina v. Holder, 641 F.3d 333, 338 (9th Cir. 2011) (testimony of petitioner’s belief that relocation would not be safe or reasonable was, by itself, insufficient to meet petitioner’s burden of proof).

Substantial evidence also supports the IJ’s conclusion that Singh failed to demonstrate a reasonable possibility of torture by or with the consent or acquiescence of the government. See Andrade-Garcia, 828 F.3d at 836-37.

We reject, as unsupported by the record, Singh’s contentions that the IJ violated his due process rights. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring error to prevail on a due process claim),

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED,
