MEMORANDUM
Lovejit Singh, native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings. Kumar v. INS, 204 F.3d 931, 933 (9th Cir. 2000). We deny the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the agency’s finding that Singh failed to meet his burden of establishing past persecution or a well-founded fear of future persecution. See 8 C.F.R. § 208.13(a); see also Halim v. Holder, 590 F.3d 971, 975-77 (9th Cir. 2009). In the absence of past persecution, Singh’s humanitarian asylum claim necessarily fails. See 8 C.F.R. § 208.13(b)(1)(iii).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
