It's well deserved the way some try to get in with fraud docs and wrong way...But should not be rejected, right Palki ? // cause duniya mein ab GODI and Andh Bhakt need to work harder // I thought India is already a VC ishwaguru and our danka is on top right Palki?? // and where is that sycophant Akshay Kumar who say at immigration they jostle to handle indian passports and in his words Aw Aw you are from Modis India, where is this aw aw crow sounding with a rubbish accent now hiding.????

The population of Indian immigrants has skyrocketed in my native California since 2000. There are many lovely Indian people living here. But many are arrogant Tesla drivers that dont drive safely and act like they own the world. I slammed my breaks on once because a dog ran into the street and I didn’t want to hit it. And the Indian man behind me rear-ended me (which is completely his fault because he was riding too close behind.) He was furious and his response was “you should’ve hit the dog.” He kept saying it was my fault for stopping in the road and wouldn’t give me his insurance. I almost hit him, but instead I called the cops so they’d force him to give me his insurance.

The high rejection rate is because of behaviour of too many Indians overseas. Plus India is a high risk Country when it comes to immigration. So visa availability and rejections will be intense.

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.

Palki: your program shows only part of the story. \n\nIndians are one of the most visible visa violators. You should know that in the US, we have 700,000 illegal immigrants, which includes people who are overstaying their given visa duration. \n\nOver 15% of the Indian population in the US are illegal aliens. \n\nBy giving such incomplete picture of the issue, you are only losing your credibility outside India as a Angrezi Indian TV program \n\nYou should do a series of programs on why Indians, in the middle of such promising growth, are so desperately wanting to leave India to Angrezi-speaking Gora countries. \n\nYou should dig a little deep into the issue. \n\nUK and France are under the grip of their social fabric being torn apart because of their own past errors and sins as empires. \n\nBelgium and Holland are already changed demographically with legal and illegal immigrants. \n\nCanada, Australia and NZ are threatened by Indian immigrants who have entered their counties under the guise of students. The populations of these countries are smaller than Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata metro populations. \n\nKollengode S Venkataraman

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. ?

You forgot to mention the number of illegal Indian immigrants is higher than in any other nation.

Indians are not tourists, they all look into immigrating to other countries.

The culture in Canada has changed the last cpl years. We don’t hate Indians we hate the government who mismanaged the immigration system.

Weren’t you going to Oxford Union few months ago and saying that Indian passport is revered now at immigration counters around the world ?? ???

How are you not addressing one of the main reasons for this being the illegal immigration?\nAlso let’s not forget the reputation we as Indian have abroad.

1. TEACH CIVIC SENSE TO INDIANS\n2. TEACH HOW TO OBEY LAW\n3. ASK THEM TO LEARN TO STUDY AND GO BACK TO OWN COUNTRY \n4. DONT IMMIGRATE TO STAY ILLEGALLY

Dont blame foreign govts., look at Indian themselves. Very high likely chance of being an illegal immigrant.

Those that have abused these privileges have made it more difficult for the genuine travellers to get visas. UK may be refusing 17% of visas however Indians were the highest number of migrants into uk year ending June 24. 86% migration into Uk was from non EU countries and Indian was the most common nationality for non-EU+ immigration for both work-related (116,000) and study-related (127,000) reasons in YE June 2024.

Wasn't she the same person who was arguing that she was flaunting Indian passport at UK immigration during an Oxford Debate? ?

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).

Indians has exploited most the immigration loop holes. Now those loop holes are getting closed. Thats why rejection rate is high.

What goes against India is 1) illegal immigrants and refugee applications from Indians 2 when they go abroad 2) poor or lack of civic sense, dressing sense or hygiene, 3) BJP is failing to project India as shining plus BJP has made India a living messy hell

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?

What is you point? So you want the west flood with Indian Immigrants? Look at the size of population in India, also count the application and also do research on indian assylum seekers in western countries. \nGDP is not a single factor, also see how much does an average Indian earns ?

Is this not the same lady that said when the immigration officer looks at Indian passport. They look at the passport holder with a lot of respect

Well done to these nations for the rejections of those who do not deserve the visas. Indians should have a hard look at the scams they do to get these visas. Ofcourse some may be truly deserving.But immigration is there for a purpose to keep these bloody scammers out.

Aren't we Vishwaguru!? Then why are the Indian Passports always looked at with skepticism by the immigration abroad. Even at the Bangkok airport they look at us suspiciously. Only at Kuala Lumpur I thought they appeared a bit welcoming. Reasons, already given in the above comments. We have to look inwards. Looking at everything with the lens of hollow nationalism won't help us. Being 5th largest economy is due to the size of our population. Please club the size of economy with our per capita income...and you get the real picture.

Thank you Modiji. Also special thanks to Akshay Kuamr who said immigration officers all across the world stand up and salute you when you show them Indian passport. wah

There is a reason uganda sent back all the immigrant indians ...they nearly took over the country ...

I admire the nationalist tone you add to the discussion. But the grim fact is that we Indians rank among of the worst offenders in visa misuse and illegal immigration. Thats something we need to acknowledge and correct. To start with, we need to have stricter outbound checks by our own authorities at airports.

Indians should instead immigrate to China...

Many countries fed up with mass immigration of Indians corresponding with similar amount of illegal immigrants (Mainly from Punjab, Haryana and Gujarat). They don't add any value and it is a psychological war.

Madam is such a hypocrite. While wearing yellow sarhi, she said that even immigration officers are fans of India & pay standing ovation to Indian passport, this is the power of India...

Some indians almost 45 Percent travel.abroad for jobs ...in that most of ppl go on tourist visa and try to get jobs or stay illegally ..due to that western nations curb immigration by stronger border controls ....better way to come out of this problem ...create jobs ,increase salary then only country passport index goes up

Palkhi as much as I like watching your news your views here need to address real issues. I am a proud Indian who has lived in the UK for over 50 years. However I have to say whilst there are a lot of highly skilled Indian immigrants on work visas who contribute immensely to this country. however we now have a huge community of Indians those who have come over on illegal documents or on holiday visas and then never go back. They end up working in menial jobs or not working at all and perhaps this is an issue India needs to address. Sadly these immigrants will never be an economically contributing asset to this country or any other country and I am not surprised that the visa rate rejection is so high.

Many Indians are not following immigration laws!

hey you Palki, you mentioned in one video that foreign immigration officers in the airport admire and look at Indian passport with high dignity. What a joke.

Some comments are correct… illegal immigration is one major reason.. i feel population is so high, countries are scared what if all Indians go to their country.. and they don’t want poor brown people ?

India has to be careful not to get caught in its echo chambers. Large number of illegals in west are of Indian origin especially US and Canada. If legal immigration should have any chance, India has to crack down on the illegals. Once they get deported investigation is necessary to break the backbone of these human trafficking gangs!

As per Immigration Department press released a couple of days ago, in 2023 of 50,000 Indian students who came to Canada 20,000 never even registered at school let alone attending classes. Students visa is misused on large scale by immigrant.\n\nAlso one need to keep the number of immigrants. \nBrampton has become the 2nd largest city in Ontario superseding Ottawa and Mississippi largely due to students. Brampton is mostly populated Indian and Pakistani. 3:33

This was so biased. Mention the lack of civic sense that majority of indians have, mention the ways and loopholes indians exploit immigration systems or illegally immigrate to a country

Thanks for your biased reporting. Do you have any idea how many Indians, mostly from Punjab, are illegally coming and staying in Western countries? I see it daily in Canada. This is why Indians visas are mostly rejected. Illegal immigration. Get your facts right

Palki maybe if you are not a godi adani RSSBJP spokesperson .you might one day do some real journalism. Not every issue has pro nationalist agenda. Go see how these students and Indian tourist behave ,It’s disgusting and appalling . No manners ,they are rude .do not follow , local laws and regulations. Let’s not even mention lack of hygiene. \nThis is why many countries like Australia,UK ,Europe Canada are clamping down on Desi indians..and the Indian immigrants who are born or living in these countries for decades are facing racism .

Mr. K.Mukherjee .BE (Germany ) (Canada) Thousands of Indian students went to Canada with a student visa, not for education but to find ways to stay and work.These Five Eyes countries are rejecting the visas at random.Don't try to blame ,rather try to teach these young people the basic moral education and polite behaviour to others and not to try from the back door.Without any legal Immigration papers ,there will be no survival in Canada.Try to bring back the respect from the others.Please don't repeat the fifth largest economy in the world over and over.This will not change a dime about the notion to the developed countries.

Weren't you the one who said the Immigration Officers in foreign countries bowed down in front of the Indian Passports?

Simple, because to control illegal immigrants....and indians dont want to stay illegally in SL Thai or Vietnam but NZ Aus US UK and others European countries

There is more illegal immigrant from India to west learn country than western people illegally immigrants in India. That why immigration has more question than when going for visa application because many people don’t return back even after visa is expired. So this give more question for west to give visa or not for Indian visa holder

Most people in jails of Saudia, Dubai, Oman and Qatar are also Indians.\nMost illegal immigrant people living after visa expiry in USA & Canada are Indians. Indians dont leave the country after visa expiry.\nIndians are crying is jails of Saudia and Middle East.\nIndian government is doing nothing, government doesn't care.

Does this host watched tv shows such as “nothing to declare” and “danger Tv”? Many people think that because they think that they are cleaver enough to circumvent visa interviews, falsify documents required to impress foreign embassy staff, get visa on false pretenses because they have money, connections in domestic government or someone overseas to curry favor them, then no wonder your visa application would be rejected and fees forfeited or you would be turned down entry to your dream country on arrival and deported back to your home country. People even dare to charter a flight to Maxico with a plan to cross the border and into USA, like a flash mob, without a visa. Well you don’t have entitlement for that, just like you don’t like Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Rohingya crossing your borders by any means.\nHow many Indian agents have befooled fellow Indians who want to go and work in UAE, Behrin, Muscat, Qatar, Oman, Jordan and Saudi Arabia but landed on one of the beaches of India or have their Passport taken away to make them work like a slave in servitude by their fellow Indian contractors? Let us talk about that.\nLet us talk about how many Indian parents and students so foolish to see admission in universities or unaccredited fake colleges in Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, Russia and Russian federation countries but no serious intention to study but intention not to return but figure out magic trick to PR and citizenship without really caring to understand how immigration works and what would actually qualify to deserve immigration visa? Sham marriages is one of many tricks that people pursue despite knowing that chances of success are really very remote. Let us talk about that.\n\nLet us talk about fake colleges that “donations” to admit “students” who failed to perform because their parents have money to justify entitlement to buy degrees and fake colleges print it out in return to “donations”?\n\nIt doesn’t end here. You get to these destinations by hook or crook, you eventually get busted, yet you have nerves to be cocky, pretend to be robbed, discriminated, cheated, victimized instead and gather nerve to seek PR, green card, white card as compensation and even a job? I mean how far you would go thinking world is stupid and you can prove it.\n\nSORRY, there are hard working, intelligent and qualified Indians that get visa and there are people who get visa on family migration quota for example but many others, give me a break.

Most of the Indians dont come back after visiting west . All want to be illegal immigrant so I guess this is justified

I think most western countries have reached peak 'Indian' immigration. It's reached saturation.

First of all . I am an Indian living in Australia. \n1. The way some of us are behaving in these countries is the worst . Instead of respecting their culture and laws, we start behaving in the same way as in India .\n2. I don't want to put it out, but some people from certain places have a ready solution even if the immigration change their rules . They know every means to cheat their way in. \n3. Take, for example, 200 people come from other countries and do nonsense in India. Will we allow them ? Noooo, right ... but right now, thousands of our Indians are damaging other countries, bringing all kinds of dirty activities we do in India .Unnecessary protests are just 0.1% of them\n\nThis is the best decision taken by the other countries and it should become more strict in the coming days

Improve trade and cut H4 visas for US as i have no idea on other countries. H4 visa housewives will really depressed in a country like US. because of depression crime rate will be more.? sometimes you wont have any indian friends near by even it has more indian immigrants. Give jobs to indians who are living there for generations. They must have contributed tons of inputs larger foreign trade income etc... Ask their inputs and India should make policies supportive or non supportive to indians. Dont send indians. They will suffer. As a indian we are nice people. help if you see any indians suffering in foreign countries. Please give help line to come back home . lot of movies you see in india shows immigrant suffering. those are all true. dont go unless you are rich and have billions of dollars. Increase jobs/ Salary/ skill training here. also improve immigration policies on other countries where indian immigrants is less. lot of foreign countries have worst weather. In those areas indians can Work from home. india should support WFH.?

May be the reason is Indians are leading in over stay, illegal immigrations and visa scams ?
