Probably this is also source of income for these countries. More rejections they do more repeat applications, more money. India should apply diplomatic or reciprocal measures for this.

You people are getting worried for rejection of visa.\nI still couldn't find why my Aadhar card address change is getting rejected for the past 3 months.

all thanks to MODI <-- keep voting for him and he place dirty tricks. more visa willl be rejected while i have an OCI card called MALTA 180 countires!!

Out of 40000+ no-show cases of international students in Canada, Indians rank first- more than 15000. No wonder visas are getting rejected.

There is a high chance of visa rejection because applicants might not return after entering and could stay illegally. Nowadays, many Nepali citizens stay in other countries illegally, which has resulted in our passport ranking very low on the global index.

The western economic structure is drowning in debt and they fear Indians will come and take away what little is left. Don't worry companies will come to India eventually. I am sure the tourist visas are not getting rejected coz that would be soo dumb.

We as a common Indians,we are very much happy that the Visa rejected

Wow! Great observation:\n1. Audiences are neutral\n2. Visa rejections are extremely painful and could be less expensive.\n3. 80% of people are paying for 20% problems. \n\nMost Importantly: Visa’s are discriminatory period. And systems are old and painful.

Unfortunately, there has to be some criteria by which each country has to make a judgement. I do not understand why she is cribbing here. There is this guy who keeps going on international trips and everyone in India for gaga over the importance he brings to India through those trips. What happened? Not working? They fail to understand that all the hugs and kisses are only for the TV and in reality every country just cares for the business opportunity they get out of the other. \n\nPalki keeps talking about using our economic power. Who should be weilding it? Is it not the Government? Do they really care if an individual or a lot of their citizen's visa get rejected? They are busy painting a rosy picture to their blind followers. They abuse and mock organizations that put down the ranking of our country instead of understanding the reason behind those ranking. They have no data to contradict the agencies but use rhetoric and everyone seems to be happy about it.\n\nWhy has this lady not put in any thought on the other possible reasons for rejections that could be because of the applicants? The easiest thing to do is blame other countries for the rejection without thinking why certain types of countries reject and what has our citizens done in those countries? No point in thinking about a few people who helped build Dubai or those one of cases like Pichai & Nadella. Think of those who go their and cause concern to those countries.

One reason for this is pseudo journalists like Palki who keep trumpeting the ruling party line about India's achievements instead of telling the truth. Indians are practically running from India unable to face the galloping unemployment and poverty. But who wants needy people? Naturally the visa rejection rates have gone up.

The category of persons whose VISA’s got rejected should also be discussed. Like students, business, casual travellers etc should provide a better insight.. Also visa rejections due to improper documentation should also be highlighted

Most overstay their visas.\nThis is the number one reason for the rejection.

Regardless of many reasons for rejection, we as a country shouldn't turn blind eye to illegal methods to obtain visa or illegal immigration. We can't deny fact that racial prejudice is significant while giving visas.\nEnd of the day, its the sovereign country's right to let anyone into their country.

What more India can do to avoid visa rejections:\n\nPut an end to religious intolerance against minorities within the country. The free run of neo-nationalists and cow terrorists should also be stopped. Protests against the hijab and halal meat must be dealt with by law. \n\nNobody will welcome people coming from a country of lawlessness.

Rejection rate for US is 90% particularly in New Delhi consonant, 2nd week dec, i witnessed this all are coming with crying faces, my son cleared for MS study. I feel US is avoiding certain communities, they are,,,,

Why Bangladeshi people are being rejected Indian Visa?

So true. Even genuine applications get rejected. That’s unacceptable considering Indian people are peaceful and adding more value to every nation they visit.

Countries which reject the Indian fraudsters are bad? I

Lol, the reason we have so many rejection is because everyone wants to go abroad and settle there even illegally. Other nations have not failed at infra as much as we have. Our greed and shallow thinking is why we are in this mess. If allowed, over 100 million would fly out in matter of months but those countries can't support such migration. Fifth largest economy still struggles to both build foothpaths and keep them from encroachment. First fix the issues within.

India is 1.4 billion strong. If a European country gives Indians easier access on visa, we will flood that country. You already have Dunkis thronging in droves, illegally entering US and Canada. This has nothing to do with nationalism or some second-class treatment by other nations. This is simply the logistical reality. India's passport ranking will never improve. And the way Indians behave in other countries, I would say this rejection rate is more than justified.

They are doing right thing. You go to submit any document at BLS which is unfortunately front offices of Indian embassies, you come back frustrated and angry. They are masters of finding faults, keep on changing required forms. It seems unrelated but I tell you support for India with Indian community is dwindling. We no longer write angry emails to politicians for rejection of visas to Indians.

My visa never rejected even i am getting visa faster than before reason is documenation is mot enough to prove their visit

Countries do not just reject visas for no reason. Probably because in there data many Indian Nationals over-stay there visa and stay there for good even though tourist visa already expired. Immigration can determined who is entering and departing in their port of entries. Many Indian nationals stay in a country undocumented that's the reason of visa rejection!

Good it is rejected. It is absolute nonsense to make an issue of it.

Let me tell you, as an Indian, the rejection may be the way our Indian fellow beings behave. I have seen many videos where the Indians were acting so disgusting.

I am fond of Ms Palki,s presentation.But she is more indian without justification. I have read most of the comments. What she will tell about visa rejection of the Bangladeshi by India. For such rejection and restriction students can not apply visa for the countries which visa centres are in India. Its tit fir tat.

wrong USA rejects 99 out of 100

Yes I agree with some of comments, specially, the type of people who are rejected.\nSome of them, may be do not have required proper documents, their lack of qualifications fake papers.\nThey deserve to be rejected.

I really hope these rejection news is real and support H1-b freeze, we indian Americans unable to find job in IT due to over saturation. Mainly due to telugu people by the support of agency create fake resume, fake experience and even agency help them with attending phone interview. Thus legit Citizens unable to find work

As a south asian I fully support the rejection. Unfortunately a lot of Indians are giving south asians a bad name and reputation world wide

Many begger western country are using visa rejection fees as revenue.

The nation's are right in rejecting it... Why create chaos....

Philippines will not reject indians!

The headline is misleading - suggests India is rejecting visa applications. Anyway, reality is India, and the Modi government’s priority, is to ensure Indian intake into foreign countries increases substantially. This is due to the lack of jobs and resources locally. The bigger issue is fraudulent applications. The Australian government blacklisted student applicants from Punjab, Gujarat, Bihar and 3 other states for high proportion of fraudulent applications. Sadly, after Narendra Modi visited Sydney when a Quad meeting was called off but Modi still travelled, Gujarat was removed from the blacklisted states. One fraud leading to another fraud. That is the core DNA of the country and the genuine applicants too suffer.

Visa Rejection only because of Fraud North indians

Countries has right to reject anyone. Its all about sovereignty.

Palki , I think you missed a major chunk of the reasons for visa rejections and passport ranking in your research and analysis.

Rejected because Palki sharma lies

Imdian media and people like Palki sharma do nothing to help the Indian cause. Denigrating and threatening others for rejecting visas without understanding why isn't practical.

how dare to reject vishwagaru

Dont cry victim if visa rejected......

Rejected by the behavioral design and the sanatana civilization.....

While palki shared the data which will make every indian unhappy. The comments from various people sharing the reason behind rejection. The most prominent is behavior. Indian govt can't do anything about it as its prominent within certain states and communities to cheat. If i am not wrong Northern regions are more cheats than southern. But for foreigners we all are indians.

India should stop e-visas for govt employees of countries like the US. Any US citizen who or whose immediate family member is a US govt employee should be asked to queue up at an Indian consulate and given an appointment after 1 year. They should be asked to submit various sorts of documents, submit their passport, wait for 45 days after which depending on the mood of the officer at the consulate, a sticker visa could be issued. This policy should be for OCIs who take up govt job as well.\n\nPS: Egypt had removed Canada from their visa on arrival list after canada began arbitrarily rejecting egyptian visa applications. This has been done in the past

Madam you need to understand why visas are getting rejected because of government fighting policy with other countries. At last who suffers a common man who just wants to earn money. Indian government can show an attitude once you are a developed nation.

Most embassy earn more by visa rejection since you have to pay for submission.

Some Indians don't behave well in abroad thereby hampering the reputation of Indian ethnicity living abroad. I'm glad they are getting rejected

- Majority of Indians travelling overseas have several issues mainly: civic ethics, behaviour, stealing, ego, no empathy, rude, overstay on tourist visas, and claiming refugee in US, UAE, AUS, NZ and Canada. So of course rejection rate is high.

in your reporting, I wish you had qualified what kinds of visas are rejected - student, visitor, immigration, business, etc. and the numbers.\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about India RECIPROCATEs with the Aforementioned countries because India is the #5th rank economy in the world.\n\nIs it possible that these countries are HINTING at something.
