Indians are flooding these countries and many stay back illegally . Many are now undertaking underhand activities. Huge numbers coming with FAKE educational qualifications and documents. The trust system is broken now. Unchecked immigration has put high pressure on the health and housing sectors.

Hi\nCan you let us know how many indians with tourist visa travel outside India and Never come back to india\nThis is the reason \nYou say India is best but sorry to say India is polluted \nSmells\nDictatorship \nCorrupt politicians \nMost government, police,civil servants workers take bribery .\nIf you open the doors for Indians to leave India then more than two thirds of Indians will leave today. \nDoesn't this tell you something\nYou can tell or impress others that you and india is good. \nEveryone knows the truth

Ma'am, when a country makes it harder for citizens of a particular country to enter their country, it is often because of the number of recorded incidents, crime from people from said country. If there is a higher rate compared to people from other countries, then it becomes harder. Let's be honest here... Indians don't have a good reputation abroad when it comes to such things... I'm half Nigerians and at least many Nigerians acknowledge why lately, it is harder for Nigerians to get a visa (Obv crime as well.) Has nothing to do with discrimination. Also, look at the state of Canada. Nigeria and India need to focus on bettering their citizens so that less people go abroad, which also reduces the chance of certain people doing crime, to avoid making it harder for honest people from the same country to get a visa. Better the countries so that more countries open up for Indians, making the ranking go up. \n\nLastly, the passport index website shows India at 65, not 85. Why lie about that to fit your narrative? The passport index website is literally the first result that shows up on Google too... Not everything is about discrimination...

There are too many Indians.

First Indian government find out why so many Indians are desperate to go out of country.

Indian peopole are living everywhere...from Canada...USA...UK...AUSTRALIA....PLEASE CHECK HOW YOU INDIANS TREAT FORINERS...HOW MANY FORINERS LIVES HERE IN INDIA

There are too many Indians in Canada that sometimes you think that you are in India. The worst thing is when they come to aboard the bring all their bad habits with them l??

India's over population is the biggest concern to the whole world. India should simply merge with Australia, USA, UK, Canada and NEW zealand. So many indians are dying to migrate to these counties. So many indians do not want to live in india due to lack of quality of life, corruption, pollution and over population. If india merges with these countries they can move half of the indian population to these countries and the quality of life in India will improve.

@3:30: Burkino Faso, Kosovo and Cuba have tiny populations. Even if their entire population migrated, the locals in the country receiving them would hardly notice any difference. Not so with India and its 1.5 billion population, many of whom want to migrate only because the neighbour's/aunt's/uncle's son also went abroad. Announce a liberal visa regime for Indians one day, and within a year, your country would start looking like Chandigarh or Ahmedabad. While most countries are ok with some diversity, no one wants to be overrun by foreigners, even if the foreigners in question are Indians who are generally law abiding and hard working. And then there are the 'smarter ' types who fake documents and produce bogus certificates to get visas and even pay human smugglers to take them abroad if their visas are rejected. It's for all these reasons why India's passport is ranked at 85. The only reason why India doesn't fall even further is because there are bigger basket cases like India's 'friendly' neighbors who are sitting tight below.\nIf India wants equitable treatment, it should first make itself the best place in the world for an Indian to live and work in. The more you rely on the others for visas, the more likely they are to refuse you.

Why is india not asking for visas to enter the country? Especially from developed countries like UK, EU, US. India should atleast ask for tourist tax from foreigners. Many EU countries impose tourist tax from tourists. Today we see many foreigners making youtube videos of Indians to make money. Pay tax for the money earned in India

Nope: factor 1: Behave, Respect and show some culture! \nI have lived and travelled many nations. Being an Indian I myself, I have never seen any individual from the countries this lady mentioned posing a strike in any of these countries mentioned rejecting visas. \nThe more you try to impose your selfless behaviour and disrespect the more visas they will reject! So learn and adapt! \nIf you need visas! Don’t hold flags and strikes there disturbing the peace of people living there! It’s just that simple!

Too many Indians!!!!!! It’s too much enough! It’s full in west!

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.

19k indians crossed into US from mexican border last year. Indians walking into US from\nCanada after housing and job crisis and there are many H1Bs jobless. West doesn’t have capacity to accommodate so many.

You never mentioned what the Modi government’s actions are against these visa rejections? \nIndians are known to travel to many destinations on tourist or study visas and then simply stay back. They take advantage of the loopholes in the laws of many countries and there are Indians in those countries who help them.

The illegal immigrants from India are mostly from Punjab going as Restaurant workers lured by khalistanis .\nAnd ofcourse many illegal Bangladeshis , Rohingyas obtain Indian passport nd enter other countries

People like you blame others. Look inside. How many Indians are illegal travellers.

Western Countries have become increasingly discriminatory towards Indians especially ..they are more busy granting asylum to Caliphate coming from all over across borders ....\n\n\nSo shove the ranking ...\nThe issue is open and pure discrimination against Indians.\n\nA handful of Indians break rules agreed .\n.but a majority have economic power and just want to travel ...the majority is become a victim of the minority idiots as usual ....(Take a Hint ) ...\n\nI am a British Citizen I followed process procedures and got my Citizenship screw visas I was never in my life denied a visa as I was truthful ...\n\nPoints are many the wise will understand ...

Indians should just be free to roam the world and we all must be so lucky they grace us with their presence…you are being a little arrogant here. Have you considered the root causes of these visa denial?….. listening to you…. India has aspiration to become a great power if that is so why are so many Indians going abroad for education and jobs?

thats because indians once they land in a foreign country donot want to go back, thats reflects a very bad image of indians.. I am a legal immigrant in UK, but I see so many indians who misuse study visa to stay beyond their visa expiry and eventually become illegal immigrants just taking advantage of the system.. this reflects are very bad image.

Faced same issue. Got rejected then got approved. Yes many Indians do cause a ruckus and follow questionable methods to enter and stay. So people like us always loose visa fees

Many countries jealousy about India and Indians. This comes to visa problem.\nIndia growing so fast no one country capable to challenge India.???????????

Why are there so many people from India with fake degrees and certifications? Chinese have been under the microscope for decades while Indians get away with daylight robbery. Perhaps the honeymoon is over.

Many people now days have a negative view of Indian immigrants. USA is flooded with Indian scammers. Many complain about behavioral issues. So, the reputation is not exactly great. I've seen more and more US and Canadians pushing back.

I heard many srilankan bangladesh Pakistan Maldives citizens are owning Indian passports . And they too applied for American visa using their fake Indian passports.. any investigation on this?

These countries outrank India because there are 1.5 billion Indians, and many want to come to the Western world. There is no space for that many Indians.

How many Indians illegally travel every year 1 story please

Too many indians.

due to mass immigration many dont return to india.. overpopulation demn guys your already billions in populations stop having children! i myself saw in UK, Ireland and Polish immigration 85% are Indians!!! \ntheir using tourist and student visa then many of their families own businesses and settle marry inside the host countries and 90% bring their children and wife! imagine thet

In my opinion Indians being rejected because many are involved in illegal activities. Better they stay home with respect and enjoy, India itself is a big country and extremely rich in culture, so better to explore their home first?

A passport's ranking depends on how many countries its holder can visit visa-free and how many offer a visa on arrival. To boost India's ranking, the foreign mission could focus on increasing the number of countries Indian citizens can travel to without needing a visa.

Good news and many north indians are taking aslyum in europe and america on tourist and business visa, if such activity is increasing then other country can take any actions. India doesn't have aslyum facility and no one want to take Aslyum in infia???

she avoided mentioning the real reason.. (many visa seeking Indians are actually not out there to spend but running away to those nations from India, and the visa issuing countries have realised it). lots of illegal Indians currently living and working in all the mentioned countries are the main reason for the downgrade in the visa ranking.

Indian's have flooded uk too too many

Because we already have too many indians without citizenship working here...

It's not just about the largest economy we need to consider the real fact for visa rejections, one of them is not respecting the visitor visas restrictions i.e. overstating and working without work authorization. I have seen so many Indians selling fruits, flowers and gift items illegally on the streets of Europe and Americas.

Indian news reporting is almost like ccp news - both want to push only good news but life & reality isnt so idealistic if it was there wid b no need for govts ! The purpose of a democracy is to highlight the weaknesses to get those in power per state to be held accountable & correct it to benefit the ppl. Indias education system is deplorable from content ( outdated ) to language skills. As a ex European colony there is english , portuguese & french - the no. Of campuses being built ? In covid sitharaman made a big thing inda budget for correspondence campuses & distance learning what happened ? 1 of indias greatest exports was its intellectual capital many that hold top global posts graduated from iit & others - the indian that saved nokia hails from an indian institute along with so many others on a long list many eirk for spaceX & nasa so the break is obvious & is getting wider as more indians in the lower economic scale aim to make babies like a production factory then expect givt to dole out free food , guaranteed jobs & education etc ! When too much is tsken out for social welfare vs the amt put in - u hve a problem ! A ticking time bomb. In the u.k most billionaires live outside to avoid paying crazy taxes to feed & clothe paki grooming gangs & the royal family & india is heading that way ! A recent report from china observer showed that china has held back on foxconn employees going to india for what ? To teach indians ! Now foxconn has to get taiwanese ppl to go to india to teach staff otherwise it wont meet its targets.

Chinese fare no better wid china many r trying to escape the ccp. Saw a doc on british customs ppl catching ppl - 1 indian guy claimed to b a student at a english college was his bad luck dat da lady interviewing him knew a bit of basic i.t - dis kid lied abt da college he did enroll buy failed & dropped out , he fidnt know squat of 1st yr basic i.t , his english level was putrid , da u.k customs also caught illegal chinese working in chinese restaurants living like squatters. Wrt indians - fake degrees can be bought its a huge multi billion dollar scam from within india to a web outside from middle East to far East. These ppl enter under false pretences hsve no real value & end up frying chiken tikka , making bombay crush & rotis on da street side ! These r leeches that give those with genuine qualifications a bad rep. Bec we all get painted wid da same brush ! Facts r facts it mite b hard to swallow & o ly hits da news wen ppl r caught ! Dat series on an entire village of kids scamming via cell phones feeding inyo local politicians was hopefully an eyeopener. Its up to indians foreign offices to clean up but they r short staffed , & it seems govt attitide is rather the scum become someone elses problem ! Bad policy dude ! These r ur ppl & as such for brand india only quality shud b exported. These duffers can join cpi & Congress. ??

How many of them are going to visit and return home. Let's be clear. And other countries need their citizens to have job. Indians are smart people to solve this problem they should make india great again like china.

It’s because Indians are just too many and are just everywhere.

Indian govt should guarantee the return of any illegal Indian immigrant from these countries and there won’t be many rejections unless there is a strong reason for rejection.

Palki do you know how Indian embassies reject visas globally ,,, do you have any idea how many weeks our embassies take to issue visas ,,,, bak bak paid lady full of lies

Maybe as we all Indians know all too well, many of our fellow citizens travel to other countries like in the West & stay they illegally - often working in their black economy. Even if caught, they destroy or hide their passports to conceal their origins & even if proven they are to be Indian, the Indian gov't refuses to take them back without their passport & other I.D documents.

First Post miss the point. Visa restriction and passport ranking have nothing to do with GDP.\n\nThe history of misusing the visas pushed many countries into looking to details.\n\nIndians misuse the visas and seek for asylum. \n\nDon’t compare Indians and Cuban. \n\nHow many people meet a cuban into a country and seeking asylum. They’re even rare.

Indians has to develop own companies, otherwise no existence, how many years can we go like these......

After bjp came to power , many Indians have become aggressive and pushy , the world is reacting

Why are so many Indians heading to countries with a much much smaller population? My gawd....it's 1.2 billion in India. How is the reat of the world to accommodate them?

Only way for Indians is to stop visiting these places so that these countries realize that they are losing all the money. Indian visitors should try visiting Vietnam, Thailand , Laos. Sri Lanka and many beautiful African countries.
