All Indians should thank those Indian descendants who are behaving badly in foreign countries. I mean I could name a few Rishi Sunak, Vivek Ramaswamy and Kash Patel the list could go on and on. As an American with an Asian heritage many I saw many of my Indian American friends voting for Trump well since I voted for Kamala just remember Indians just because you’re supporting these guys doesn’t mean that they accept you in their team. I am guessing Karma is real ????

The majority of Indians are wonderful people, despite the fact that some of them are lethargic, unfriendly, slow-moving, and most importantly, foul-smelling. I apologize and I'm not racist; I'm simply speaking the truth. When it comes to population increase, they are comparable to rabbits.

Ms. Sharma went to Oxford and gave a cringeworthy performance about the supposed strength of Indian passport and how it is the envy of the word. So. didn't expect much substance from the propaganda spreading jingoistic journalist. She conveniently missed mentioning the real reasons why visa applications of Indians get rejected -\n1) Thousands of Indians go on tourists visas only to 'disappear' and never return. It doesn't just happen in Canada, US, UK, Aus but also welcoming countries like Thailand, UAE.\n2) Indian Visa (to visit India) itself is one of the most expensive and complicated to get for foreigners, so other countries have no incentive to make it easier for Indian citizens.\n3) Developed countries know that if they make it 'easier' for Indians to travel to their country, they will end up with tens of thousands who wont want to go back to India. It is already the case when its difficult to get a visa, imagine the situation if its made easier.\n4) Most of the Indian tourists fall under the mass category, they are not like the heavy spending Chinese tourists. We are not the most well behaved, so till we start getting more affluent, we wont be in as much demand.

Indians not friendly/act superior

In thailand indians are everywhere

Most Indians I speak to here want to remove all H1B and F1 student visas. Indian origin people themselves want to prevent Indians from coming to the US. Let’s see what Trump does

Maybe stay in your country and fix it instead of running away from a problem you created. By the way this is mostly north indians running away.

As an Indian living in Australia, i support the rejection of visas. Indian behave like they're living in India. Ladies in my class from punjab will speak only punjabi and ask desi lectures if they can teach the class in Hindi. \nAlso occasionally the khalistanis will do demonstrations here creating traffic. \nMany indians visiting nearby Vietnamese cities lile bali also disrespect locals there. They think all the ladies there will sleep with them for money.\n\nThe reporter should see this side of Indians before questioning the west on why they reject visas. In my opinion this reporter is biased and wont show the entire truth to the world.

If India was so great, why dont Indians stay and build their own country

Because everyone one knows about indians........???

Canadians are actually white British or French who ruled India for 200 years. Now Indians will rule them

Because foreigners visa officers know indians can only want to settle in foreign country and not coming in home country

Don't you dare question why some visas of Indian nationals were rejected by other countries bcuz India too indiscriminately reject visas of foreignors at their border.

The only economic parameter that matters is per capita. India currently ranks 122nd in the world based in per capita (that too purchasing power included). India can be the largest economy in the world with a hopeless per capita. One day The Adanis, Ambanis and a few others will be worth 25 trillion USD themselves and India could be the largest economy in the world; yet 95% of its population will rank lower than 120th in the world. Nationalistic emotion can cloud one's judgement. Plus as an ex-Indian, here are things I see constantly - walking upto the edge of the platform to empty their noses, being obnoxious in public, spitting on the side of the road, talking to people about how the country they are in, looted India for centuries, and asking them to return the 45 trillion :D

Please stop criticizing every ranking, every index. Look at the amount of Indian illegal immigrants almost everywhere. UK reported 1lac of them in 2024. Why do you think any country wants this!! I mean Indians are ok to die and enter other countries illegally, drive cabs, become cleaners, earn below minimum wage than to live in India. Look at the people quitting Indian citizenship every year. Pls Palki, don't make it seem that India is amazing and all is the conspiracy of the West. High networth ppl have left India. Take some ownership. Criticism of your country for good doesn't make you bad. Waise bhi GDP me top bhi ho jaae aur per capita income low rahe toh koi danka nhi baj rha hai desh ka..

Indians may have deluded themselves into thinking they are great but this perspective may not nevessarily shared by the rest of the world.

India is just a second rate third world country. The blurb about the 5th largest economy is just baloney. If you look at the trade statistics with China it is very obvious it is just a Chinese colony. India is just a wannabe superpower. If all western countries give easy visas to Indians there will be no more Indians in India.

As Indian living abroad..please don't send more Indians abroad. They really spoil our reputation and image.

The fact is that Indians and their documents are not trusted abroad at POEs. Indians are known as being scammers. So the high rejection rate.

?????. Your blind nationalism won’t help . Again news without research. North Indians have contributed a lot to Indians reputation in and outside the country. This is one of them. \nBla bla bla channel.

Bcos when Indians enter in other countries! They don't want to go back!!

As an Indian citizen, I can clearly understand why do visas are rejected. If you give visit visa they will disappear in that country and live there.

0:34 don't call them indians ?? call them north Indians???

The main reason is due to the idiocy exhibited by most Indians when overseas.

Where wars are there Americanns are there. Where dollars are there indians are tbere.

“Bloody Indian” is a very common slang in Australia. I am proud to be Indian but that makes me feel sad?

Wait a minute! A women looking exactly like you was saying that Indians proudly flaunt their passport everywhere they go. I think it was at some Oxford Union. I'm forgetting her name but her statements were truly motivating.

poor Indian...

The time for getting a green card for Indians in USA is very long now. That may be one of the reasons.

The west relies on indians talent- best joke of the year

There’s more pride and nationalism projected in this video than real facts. Why do Indians need visas? It’s very simple: Most Indians are more likely to figure out a way to stay abroad once they touchdown abroad. \n\nAmericans, Canadians, Europeans, etc, don’t need visas wherever they go because most of them always return to their countries eventually no matter where they visit and how long they’re away. \n\nCitizens who don’t need visas wherever they go hardly ever leave their own countries for another. It’s really very simple. Just look at Singapore, Switzerland, etc. How often do you see their citizens leave such countries for another? Almost never. That’s why.\n\nIt sounds like she’s trying to make an argument that this rule shouldn’t apply to Indians because India’s economy is powerful. You need to convince this fact to the Indians who are leaving India, because if you can’t even sell this point to those Indians leaving India, then you don’t even have a case.

The problem is that when they ask for a tourit visa, they stay and want to work. Europeans and Americans as well as people ftom the rich Ara nations go to Infia as a tourist and then go back to their country. Thailand and Vietnam allow more Indians be ause Indians do not want to work there. We are right. We must not give visas unless we need the person. India should fo the same.

She wants Indians to easily illegally go anywhere and settle there!!!

There are one Indian couple moved in my upstairs apartment two weeks ago.since then I just couldn’t sleep at night cus they are making so much noises for hours constantly every night . I never heard that much of noises in my life and I’m so pissed and they are so selfish and cares no one else . Totally a nightmare . What can I do to change this situation.????????

You think it's bad in Canada. New Zealand is a lot smaller then Canada, and so the Indians stand out even more, just look at all our fast food restaurants, service stations, corner stores every business you can think of they own it. NZ some days looks like India. We have a lot of tourists who get mad because they come here to NZers, but instead see indians

Becuase Indian bring there Indian Mentality with them, Not to follow laws and doing frauds and shortcuts in everything.

INDIA IS NOT A RICH COUNTRY. POVERTY .CORRUPTION AND ILLEGAL MIGRATION FROM INDIA IS RISING .THE REASON WHY THE INDIAN PASSPORT IS NOT SO STRONG. THE LIVING STANDARD OF THE MAJORITY OF INDIAN CITIZENS IS VERY LOW .MANY DEVELOPED COUNTRYS DO NOT TRUST INDIAN CITIZENS.

injustice for indians, will rise rapidly, for sure.

West doesnt rely on indian talent!! All you give us are uber drivers??

Because western fed up of Indians.

Coming to the US and Canada on;\n\n1. Work visas using fake documents.\n2. Fake passports.\n3. Students visas and then working full time.\n4. Fake marraiges.\n5. Becoming gays and lesbians to get assylum.\n\nI think Indians should be banned for getting US and Canada visa.

US had to change their entire h1b visa process due to the actions of 1 nation(guess what).\n And she's wondering why indians require visas???

The west relies on Indian talent is a big cope. Indians are just cheap labour force for them

I mean we need Indian Engineers to develop India by working for India,right? We can't develop India if engineers and doctors move out all the time

come to sri lanka indians are welcome

Yea...nothing to do with the behaviour of Indians... sure

KINDLY MIND THAT LAKHS OF BANGLADESHI MADE INDIAN PASSPORT LAST 15 YEARS. KINDLY CROSSCHECK REJECTED VISA AND REASONS.

I mean as someone who has worked on the other side of things (as in deporting) the comprehension level of Indians at the immigration counter is appalling they would be asked one thing and all they would answer is but I have hotel bookings and return flight tickets… and this is not a language barrier as I interpret the interviews live…. Like why are you not listening to what is being asked? You guys need to work on your comprehension skills that’s all - Respectfully a fellow Indian.\n\nPS: Pro-tip from an insider every country just wants rock solid assurance that anyone coming in on a temporary visa would go back to their respective countries. Prove that. Simple. ?

Because of People like Palki. You said Indian passport is the great because it is from the country of Modi which is ranked 85 globally 2025 PERIOD. Facts, Indian F1 students are submit fake documents like security deposits in bank (scam), the reason of study (fake), job experience after education (fake), interview process (fake) during CPT, OPT even on H1. I took nearly 40 interviews in 2024 out of which 28 are with Indian background, 24-25 of them are trying to cheat the process in different ways. 2-3 are genuine but they lack skill. Now the people like Palki are trying to lecture about India in Oxford? ?????

They are rejecting Indians because they want their country to become like India. That's a wise decision.
