Its because of how most of the indians who visit to western countries (in fact even thailand) behaves. Stealing hotel toiletries, towels arrogant. I heard one tourist yelling at a restaurant in lake district UK as he is a <<caste name>> and won't bow down. Poor intern student english guy didn't get what he meant. Reputation is very bad for most of the countries to be honest.

It's not exactly a return, it's an intensification that we need to fight with everything we have.\n\nIt's not a return because the Biden administration has continued and systematized the policies of the first Trump administration, in parallel with the murderous immigration and internal migration regimes of other powers like the EU, India and China.

Hopefully, once the Conservatives come in, we won’t have to see so many of these international students.

Hello Mam, thanks for the update amd all you do. God bless you real good. Kindly, what are the chances for international students intending to come in for a 2 years Bachelor's Degree, in a DLI, not a 4 years programme as one would have expected, nor a Masters programme. Looking forward to your response. Thanks in advance.

Can international student come with their dependent children

Deport these international Indian students. Now !!!

You're leaving CANADA, which is consistently rated in the TOP FIVE internationally, in freedom and standard of living -- and you're going WHERE? If you seriously think you'll do better someowhere else, LEAVE. No one will miss you. But when you realize what you've given up and what you've got INSTEAD, you won't be welcome back.

You can start by improving your reputation and not align with Putin - buying blood oil. Then you can start by reducing your tariffs and being more friendly for international businesses operating in India. Lastly you guys should have less children there is just too many Indians.

Actually indians should stop travelling to Europe as it is very costly and not cost bearable. The international airport s do not provide drinking water as it is provided at the Indian airport. They charge 4 to 5 Euros for a bottle of water, which we do not know before travel. We should travel to our friendly countries and avoid UK & european countries.

This is where our PM’s call for domestic travel more including destination weddings than foreign tours. Many who prefer to travel abroad might not have travelled internally at all or a little travelled. Many may not have seen beautiful North Eastern states namely Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Nagaland, Mizoram and Tripura. Connectivity was problem once not now. Many might not have gone to Andaman and\n Laksha Dweep islands. Sikkim, Goa, Kashmir and south India offers more and cheaper. Foreign travel is ok for business trips and not definitely for pleasure. Bharat is more beautify and cheaper and let us burn our money here instead of getting humiliated through rejected visa stamps besides losing visa fee paid for visiting foreign destinations.

I’m not Indian National however I feel proud that this nation has build ‘herself’ as the 5th largest global economy and if some of the following ways are adapted by Indian Gov, the Indian passport will be saluted.\n1) Make your currency strong as in Raja Ranjeet Singh’s time 1 Indian puree was ten (£10) British Pounds, today it’s 100 Rupee to £1.\n2) Need to hold educational tests for everyone going abroad with a minimum level of English language.\n3) Emphasis on etiquettes and local Knowledge of the country where the traveller wants to visit.\n4) Stop all of illegal immigration via people smuggling agents as this gives a bad name to the country.\n5) Set a minimum benchmark amount of funds required before applying for an overseas visa.\n6) Make it mandatory for all travellers to have a full fare return ticket (12 months validity) on them at all times to show strong ties to return back home after trip.\n7) Create strong religious tolerance and harmony within the country so the world can see no religious discrimination being reported on international media worldwide.\n8) The Indian embassies all around the world should be aware and weary of each Indian national traveling abroad in real time so they f any help is require they can assist 24/7 without failure.\nThese are some of my points and opinions for a better India.\nI hope the people who read above will not be offended by any of my opinions as this is not my intention and I am well wisher and want to see this nation thrive, always.\nGood luck and all the best…

Here's a refined version of your message:\n\n---\n\nThere is a significant number of Indians in Australia and New Zealand, many of whom initially arrived as international students and chose to stay. This has contributed to a rise in house rents and increased difficulty in finding accommodation. With a population of 28 million, Australia sees a high presence of Indians, who often fill many job positions, making it challenging for citizens to find employment. The Australian and New Zealand governments are partly to blame for issuing visas without expanding housing and job opportunities to accommodate the influx of visitors, students, and immigrants.\n\n---\n\nI hope this helps. If you need any further adjustments, feel free to let me know.

There are too many fake international students in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, in contract signed student are expected to be finically independent many lied on their visa application form, providing fake information is a crime. once in CAnada many depend on goverment and local social agencies to provide for them.

Just stop ur Nationalist jingo and look inward, you just paint as if India really does not have any problems, our passport ranking is based on robust diplomatic relations, economic stability, and active participation in international agreements, just because we are 5 largest economy it does not mean we are doing good..be true in your journalism and stop being part of the Godi media !!!

The international companies I believe learn the hard way lesson by hiring low quality cheap manpower which badly ruined their corporate reputation due to low standards services & products produced. Boing is one example which lost its long earned reputation on quality in just few years.

The reason is that some Indian finds it difficult to integrates.\n\n I know one Indian lady that have lived in one country for over 20 years and the lady cannot speak the language of that country. What a shame! \n\nSecondly, many of them like to dominate or discriminate against other people. It has been alleged that some Indian people discriminate against others in many places they work. For instance! Where their people are in charge in Canada, they will not offer jobs to none Indian. They preferred to give the job to an illegal immigrants from india than to give it to someone else who has complete paper work. \nThe video is on YouTube. \n\nIllegal immigrants from India protest boldly in Canada asking government to give them papers but reserve is the case in India. If an illegal immigrants is found anywhere in India, the name of that person is sorry. Too many foreigners are in India prisons for minor offence or immigration matters. I can go on and and on. \n\nVisa rejection is not a bad thing!!! Everyone must protest his or her own. \n \n\nIf it is possible, everyone should stay in their own country. No movement. Do business with your own people. No international business!!! \n\nOur ancestors survived without others, therefore we can survive too. \n\nI know many people will not like this comment but it is an opinion. \n\nI still like India but will not live there. Good luck to them. \n\n\nIn my view their ascent contributes to numerous visa denials. Let's say 10% . Then 30% is forgery. It has been alleged that some of them do too many documents forgery to get to Canada or whereever they wish to travel.\n Then \n10% is women maltreatment. (stories of rape etc). \n\n Finally, india is very big, they need to use their population as a tool for development. They have all it takes to be like China. 100%\n\nWake up Indian government. Look after your citizens or divide the damn country. It is too big. ?

The west may not answer but the answer is Modi and his mismanagement of the country and international relationships. No wave !

I don’t know about rest of the world but in the US alone, 700,000 Indians entered the country either illegally or overstayed their US visa just last year alone. In Canada, some Indian international students were discovered to have forged their education documents and now have been deported. Temporary workers are demanding permanent residency after work visa extensions have been cancelled due to housing shortages & increasing unemployment rate. \n\nIndian people in general are good workers but these protest aren’t helping and demanding they be allowed to stay while their documents are forged is upsetting Canadians. It unfortunately grouping everyone together.

The EU is becoming more xenophobic because of their immigration crisis. This is not specifically against Indians. The rejection rates rise also for African countries, Turkey, Russia, Central Asian and other countries. The only exception is the countries that agree to align fully their foreign and internal policies with Brussels (the new European colonies also known as the EU candidates).

I am sorry I am not able to understand the paradox. Less than an year ago you mentioned, in Oxford, that based upon your ‘personal yet unquantifiable’ experience at the UK border sic ‘where Indians were flaunting their passport and NONE of them in the self doubt of past century. the Immigration officer was a fan of India’? \n\nThen, your personal anecdotal account at an International stage doesn’t represent a tiny bit of reality. In most of the Schengen country we are called a ‘third world’ at immigration and always looked with a doubt. You dont have to travel these countries to get beyond your personal experience but just have a look at the queue at the US embassy in Delhi, and the way one is treated, you would have had your data. \n\nAnd now, in this video you say that a similar Immigration officer is denying visa to Indians. \n\nWhat changed in 8months?

There should be an international law that money spend during visa processing should be returned back to the person if denied.....I see no reason u will deny me visa and hold my money with u..

The weak passport and appeal is also affecting Indians who live as residents in some of these countries, where many internal visa services are now being discontinued for Indians.

Palki’s logical arguments are mostly spot on. However, I am surprised that she asks this question but doesn’t not answer with sound reasons so the people can learn and improve. The reasons for rejections may *possibly* be due to the number of Indians than have over stayed their tourist visas or due to illegal entry or international students that have not returned but rather stayed back illegally. Also possibly due to certain behaviours against women or cheating/corruption practices taken to the new country. Palki should do that research and then present based on evidence which she usually does a great job with.

Indian present leadership and rule is not acceptable according to the international community. It's radical hinduism and they are watched by the nation's. Thatsy makes indians difficult to get visa. You can be best in your eyes, but not on others understanding.

Kosova and Burkina Faso. \nWhy why. How International World do that'

Keep denying every international reports and India will successfully be the least passport ranked country in the world

I had heard that Indian position in the international arena is improving ?

Goodjob, \nThese So Called NRIs will Never Stop Shaming us Indian Internationally with their Cringe Behaviours..... and The Other is Jealous of Owning Everything Indian Goes....??

I worked in India for 6 years and then shifted abroad for a Masters, and now I am pursuing a fully funded PhD. In the UK, what I have observed is that the crop of students arriving from India are by the day lesser inclined towards studies and more in pursuit of the quick buck. Yes, getting a ‘UK based work experience’ is necessary to build the edge to compete against the wider international students post graduation and I have myself worked part-time in profiles which complimented my course in parallel to prioritising studies. However, the increasing trend amongst the masses (I do not want to generalise but yes this is unfortunately true and especially from certain states, the case is magnified: Read Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Telangana) remains getting that student visa to earn quick buck to support themselves financially, chiefly, save up to dole out to so called ‘assignment writers’ which helps them pass the course to further graduate and transfer to a grad visa (again comes at a cost) which allows them 2 years worth of stay with no working hour stipulation post graduation. Thereon, work full time in laborious jobs with again not focussing on applying to full time opportunities in the field of study. Thus, what remains at the end of the day is lost time and opportunity and since I am only talking of people who come here on a Student VISA so primarily, the opportunity cost lost to upskill and further horizons. For the country’s perspective, getting cheap, skilled labour for an unskilled job is obviously an advantage but then there are cases of students not respecting their working hour restrictions, vandalising, bickering loudly, joining hands with the already operating extremist forces which instigate violence and hatred etc. In all, I think the resistance to not becoming bicultural which is a product of serious mental and physical toil and wasting time in frivolity is the main cause of the anti-immigration wave.

Government of India must constitute an internal cheking system before any Indian citizen submit any Visa application to another nation. Like this all substandard applications can be stopped internally and external rejection rate, prestige of Indian passport could be managed better ❤❤❤

Fifth largest economy ???? because of huge population. Nobody cares your gdp ranking internationally. Look at other indices ranking such as gdp per capita , hunger index , press freedom, malnutrition, child marriage, consanguineous marriages, number of rapes

Factors that contribute to a passport's power :\n\n1. International ties:\nCountries with strong international ties tend to have more powerful passports \n\n2. Economic stability:\nCountries with stable economies tend to have more powerful passports\n\n3. Mobility score:\nThe higher the mobility score, the more powerful the passport\n\n4. Human Development Index:\nThe higher the Human Development Index, the more powerful the passport\n\nClearly all of Modi's efforts of hugging and smiling with foreign leaders hasn't done shit to improve the Indian Passport rank.\nTalk about Human Development Index, I guess eating cowdung and drinking cow urine doesn't count in Human Development Index. ???

BLS international is one of the shittiest service providers. First correct your system. Then go and lecture other countries.

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

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.

You seemed to have conveniently missed a few more main points. We, Indians, put ourselves down.\n\nThey are;\n1) Out of 100 Indiands traveled abroad either for tourism or business, only 50 returns home, and the rest try to find jobs to live there.\n\n2) Many Indians forge documents or produce fake documents to get visas.\n\n3) Where the Indians go, they bring pan and pan parag items and spit sll over the place, especially the North Indians. South Indians are much better.\n\n4) We, Indians, can go any lower to get a job abroad at low pay. So, we put our own grades down.\n\nThere are numerous examples I know of. Let me cite a few below.\n\n1) In one of the Western countries, a few years ago, a real Punjabi brother and sister who staged fake a marriage, got a marriage certificate, and other documents only to migrate there. The government eventually found put and deported them.\n\n2) Canada deported a few hundred Gujarati students when the US border security found them not speaking in English. On investigation, it was found that they all came with fake IELTS certificate.\n\nThere are many incidents we get to witness the day after the day. So, we can't blame other countries. It's us who made us very cheap in the international market. Because of those Indians, the entire innocent, honest, and talented Indians community is affected.

speak about the caste borders and religious boundaries internally, before pointing fingers outside India!

Improve internal matters first..

Indians, like applicants from many other countries, may face challenges in obtaining visiting visas due to several factors, including:\n\nProof of Intent to Return: Visa officers often assess whether applicants have strong ties to their home country, such as family, employment, or property, to ensure they return after their visit.\n\nEconomic Conditions: The visa may be denied if an applicant's financial situation does not demonstrate sufficient funds to support their trip or raises concerns about overstaying.\n\nPrevious Travel History: A lack of prior international travel or a history of overstaying visas in other countries can negatively impact the application.\n\nIncomplete or Incorrect Applications: Errors or incomplete information in the application can lead to rejections.\n\nPerceived Risk of Overstay: Some countries have strict policies based on immigration patterns and may scrutinize applications from countries with higher rates of visa overstays.

Before we cry foul about why our passport ranks low or why visas keep getting denied, maybe we should take a hard look in the mirror. Here's some eye-opening news to chew on from Canada: nearly 50K international students who got study permits to Canada decided to play hooky and never showed up at the colleges and universities they were supposed to attend. Ohh, and guess what? a whopping 20,000 of them are Indians. These folks were reported as non-compliant with their student visas, ditching the whole 'studying' part of the deal. Instead, some are busy with doing illegal jobs, while others have allegedly slipped across the border into the US illegally. But sure instead of earning the respect, let's kee p demanding for it...

I'm embarrassed by my fellow Indian countrymen at different international airports to see their crude behavior....we can blame religious backgrounds too...

The more Indians surrender their passport ? and our relationship internationally also a factor. Daily making propaganda video is not going to help anything.

Palki pulled down the international image of the whole of India by his own strength.?

Canada should not even issue 1 visa for Indian people, they ruined the entire nation with the internal differences and culture clashes.

International sudents or international immigrants?

We wouldn't have a falling birth rate in Canada if it wasn't so expensive to get married and have children. The only reason we need immigration is because the population isn't growing internally. It's not growing internally because it's too expensive. Make it affordable to get married and have kids and Canadians will start having children again

JT created this mess. But more than students people like Jagmeet have helped legalise illegals, who later joined khalistani criminal truckers business to ship in drugs and guns from south americas and entered the car jacking business while bolstering the criminal khalistanis. They have subverted canada, infiltrating the border police , politics and internal safety while they let loose a wave of crime. Nijjar himself was involved in all this and was gunned down by opposing gang. These gangs bolster Jagmeets constituency and help finance his politics.

These students came for an education. You accepted the terms of that student visa and should thereby adhere to those terms. Many countries do offer jobs to international students who excel in their studies if there are available positions in that field that Canadians can not fill. It is Indian recruiters who have sold the residency idea both in India and Canada. It is these recruters that teach them how to defraud our systems and take your money. If you think about it, how many successful companies hire people with strip mall college certificates in high paying jobs.\n\nWho they should be protesting against are their recruiters who sold them this illusion, not our government. There are processes for residency, not privileges.

I came to Canada from India as an international student, worked hard to pay my tuition, and earned permanent residency through the express entry points system. It wasn’t easy—I had to balance studies, work, and adapting to a new country.\n\nI understand concerns about immigration, and yes, some take advantage of the system. Part of the issue lies in the aggressive marketing of the “Canadian dream” by certain colleges and recruiters in India, exploiting vulnerable people and leading to misuse of Canada’s policies.\n\nI also recognize frustrations with those who protest after failing to meet the points or hire only friends instead of deserving candidates, even if they’re from my country. But that doesn’t mean we’re all the same. Just as Hitler and Anne Frank were both Germans, nationality doesn’t define character.\n\nIndia is incredibly diverse, and judging an entire group based on the actions of a few is deeply unfair. Experiencing racism simply because of where I’m from is heartbreaking. I hope we can move past stereotypes and see people for who they truly are.

Brampton attaches itself to Mississauga Pearson international airport is in molten Mississauga take it off the plane and that's where they stay you can't find white people anymore here
