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.

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.

Dear Palki Sharma \nMa’am you’re a great presenter and whenever you’re videos come online I love watching them as your reporting style is elegantly presented so your listeners can comprehend what you’re saying.\nI’m a fan of your reporting style.\nCarry on the great work.

Well I was offended about the pot thing. As a Canadian I did NOT know that America's Marijuana comes from us. I thought it came from South America. \nIs it the legalization thing? Those stores didn't really last up here though. No real market for it. But it did make those preppy rich kids stick out like a sore thumb...\nAnd the foreigners certainly pushed those rich white kids RIGHT out of the marketplace. They're all jobless now....with the rest of us who lost their jobs during COVID or the Russian and Israel wars....when those foreigners wanted our jobs. Now we're on permanent no more Nice Canadian Anti-Migration revolt. ITs the tamest world conflict ever. Where are you from? Don't care. We can't discriminate. That would be RACIST. So its No to all.\n\nTotally true about Bieber though. I remember having a conversation with a friend saying 'they can keep him'.

Blessed New Year to all ... The reason for that is there are some Indians that come to the Caribbean overtakes and there are few locals to even have businesses and it been happening worldwide and there are some Indians whole scam people for the whole life living and that is why there's a trust issue they are faithful Indians their scam Indians and they are hardworking Indians and they are different Indians who just rely on their wealth to conquer but that is why other nations will feel threatened and feel that this is what they're coming to do so the best thing to do right now is cut it from the root and that is what is happening right now because on my island what we call front Street and back street is nothing but Indians and the local of growing frustrated ? about it because the island produced jewelry stores cosmetics electronics there's nothing there screams local so that is why people are getting fed up of it and they blame the government that is why I have heard on the street a lot of Indian blood will be shed

Because there re too many of them and they don't respect the hygiene and cleanliness of the host country.

Oh no, it’s not Indian talent and they’re not better than nobody. They were just cheaper.

You’re forgetting a lot of the fraud coming under fraud

India is a super power just stay where you’re

The rest are suffering because of the ones who have abused the leverage in others’ land.\nDoes it make sense for an Indian store owner to steal toothbrush and be deported?\nThat owner is making money so why steal????\nPeople agree not to leave organisations they join but in less than 6 months join another one.\nGround reality!!!!!\nHence the actual potentials lose on visa as they’re assumed to be like the rest!

Palki ji i heard you saying that when Indians go abroad they're shown respect due to blessings of Mahamanav. \nNow both of your reports are contradictory I'm confused this Palki or Palki in yellow saree is to be believed. \nThis is happening to Indians coz media has stopped questioning Govt & speaking truth.

It's a business model of VFS now most of the country outsourcing the application process . More rejection means more re application and hefty fee of VFS?????

Indians and Chinese, both have the same issues. Rich Asians can’t behave when they are overseas. They think that with money, they can behave however they want. They’re got rich so quick that wealth can’t keep up with class and grace. The poor who can’t behave, they can’t afford to travel so they are non issue. It is the ones with money that are embarrassing their county men and women!

While you're talking about Alberta, we can see (13m24-13m33) a shot of Montreal (see the Mount Royal sign) while you're not finished talking about Alberta?\n(@13m42) Is crime rate 46% above the national average, or are you saying that it is 46%, which is above the average by some undisclosed amount ? 46% more is a hell of a lot !

It's a stupid report, obviously the visa rejection will be high if the visa applications are high from a most populated country in the world it's basic common sense , i would say India have the highest visa grant these days, I'm from India came to Australia it's not ecen harf if u have the right documents and if you're not faking anything, I'm pretty sure the rejections are mostly because of fake documents especially from Punjab and Haryana so it's good that they are not letting fake people i mean then what's the point of doing all this right way? People like me who try to come in a right way

I've been to several embassies Western and other European Non Western embassies in India over the past 25 years and most of them don't allow Indian visa applicants inside the Embassy/Consulate. Some allow Indian visa applicants only at the entrance or only inside the gate not beyond. Others allow Indian visa applicants only at the gate and you hand your application and passport to the security. It depends on what kind of visa of course. If it's for tourism or a short term visa then you're not allowed inside. If it's long term then some embassies interview you so those embassies allow. But the embassies of those very countries in countries other than India are much more open and you can actually go inside the embassy and speak to consular officers etc. In India in most Western embassies and even some Non Western embassies you cannot do that unless you're applying for long term visa or immigration etc.

Stay in your country. We're so tired of y'all here.

They're making money. Stop going there, then these countries will fail by their own weights.

Don't come to the UK. We're full

You're surprised ???? Have you seen what they do when they go abroad??? I'm surprised that there's no country that's rejected 100%

You're no longer a journalist, you're being a part of Modi's PR team. Shame on you Palki Sharma

Palki, we’re tired of the lies

Because you guys don't integrate. You're hardest ones to assimilate. If you move to some other country you are expected to accept that culture, don't push your crap on everyone else around you.

If they're loosing money let it happen why you are getting after it and cracking your nuts?

To the person recording: you're in luck this time if he wasn't doing this job for his family you would have two blacked eyes for sure

If they’re so valuable, why not stay back home and try to fix that nation? I’m sure Indian could use them more than Canada

I actually disagree with this. Deport the illegals, but if born in American soil, then you’re an American no argument. Welcome to being a tax slave, punishment enough as an American

You're leaving Canada Goodbye don't let the door hit you in the rear on the way out You're very ungrateful and you think you're entitled and can't endure any hardships

Hell no! It’s a fun place to visit, I love Florida California. I’m looking forward to going to the Carolinas, but I would never move there permanently. As a woman in Canada with children, what I do with my uterus is nobody’s business. I like my option of 18 month parental leave. I like my option not to do overtime and not have affect my job. I like my vacation and I like my sick leave. We have a safety net up here for mother‘s allowance child tax credit unemployment insurance. It is a safety net for hand up, not a handout .You guys like to pick your presidents and what your comedians will make for a living for the next 4 to 8 years. Up here we pick our Prime Minister‘s based on what they do up until they are seeking election and vote accordingly. We’re not allowed to carry weapons and use them for protection up here we look out for each other. I would prefer my children to live in a multicultural society where they are just used to other traditions and culture and Orientationchoices. That is not based on the colour of your skin. I like to have a conversation about a political opponent without it getting dangerous you’re allowed to have an opinion up here and that’s how we view it, but quite frankly after half an hour 15 minutes we we get bored of political views and just walk away from you.There’s no such a thing as you don’t want to live in that area and you have to be careful about where your kid goes to school. What does that do to the people that you’ve left behind? How does that make that better for them? I had a friend that worked down in the United States and every time I talk to her, she always uttered. I have to be aware of my white privilege. What the hell is that and I have never seen anything in your news down there about your native society we try to acknowledge and integrate them quite frankly, you guys are just worried about yourselves and not about anybody else

One nice thing about these guys is \n\nThey're darned ignorant.

So they’re actually taking that spot from refugees.

We’re not anti immigrants. We’re a nation of immigrants. But we are cracking down on liars and criminals who pretend to be students just to disappear, for instance. It’s not “anti immigrant” to be more careful.

Sounds like a lot of laziness you don’t have to stay in a big city. Lots of great affordable towns to live in If you’re not great full to be here you should leave I was born here I can’t afford a big city that’s life move on stop complaining

We're legal immigrants ?

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.

Good! I’m not racist towards them but they’re coming into western countries in numbers that are way too unjustifiable compared to other groups and natives

You two are in Montreal?? Damn, I could have sworn you’re from Scarborough.

So entitled...going to a country they're not citizens or permanent residents of and making demands. A country that's much more desirable than the one they come from and that did them a favour letting them in in the first place. They're not entitled to residency.

?️ Oga AREOLA in POLO and FACE CAP, please choose ur WORDS carefully next time, don't say you need some VIOLENCE in CANADA, though we we knw wat u meant but d CANADIANS and it's SECURITY AGENCIES will interpret u WRONGLY and perceive you as trying to INSTIGATE VIOLENCE in d SOCIETY they're WORKING HARD everyday to keep PEACEFULL??‍♀️

Canadians are the MOST chill and accepting welcoming peaceful ppl known Worldwide for it throughout history! BUT!!!! We aren’t THAT polite when ppl come here from other countries and feel entitled to take full advantage of us for THEIR benefits with ZERO care or concern for the ppl who worked and paid into a system they’re now taking from without contributing a damn thing to it themselves!!! This isn’t EVERYONES right to have just because they demand it!!! Canada owes the rest of the world NOTHING!!!!

Why don't you try to fix your home country? You're basically saying, yeah this is my home country, but something is wrong and someone else has to fix it. Doesn't make any sense.

I would just say ok here's your $20 back you're not getting your order. Go pick it up yourself.

American here. Can’t say they act like that where I live. The worst they do here is raise the grades, reduce violent crime and my personal complaint- They drive the speed limit. That will wind up giving me high blood pressure. Good thing they’re mostly doctors here.

⁠”Black” Indigenous Americans are wealthier than these Indian Immigrants. You people use OLD FAKE data which FAILS to include the HIGH incomes, wealth, net worth, LAND and properties of “Black” Indigenous American Sportsmen and women (millionaires and billionaires) along with “Black” Indigenous American Celebrities (millionaires and billionaires) along with “Black” American Business Owners and CEOs, “Black” American Doctors, Lawyers, Judges, Politicians, Leaders, Pastors, Activists, Teachers, Authors, Scientists, Singers, Actors, Actresses, Dancers, Performers, Comedians, etc. You looked on the (Du@MB) Internet and took “OLD” out-dated, FAKE and racists data of “ Black” American wealth at $53,000 per year And even less for women?? Your data SUCKS because OUR TOP “Black” Indigenous American’s WEALTH, completely CRUSHES Indian Immigrant”s cheaply earned “tech” wealth! Our “Black” Indigenous American Football and Basketball Players make more than your ENTIRE Indian Immigrant population wealth! \n\nBTW….Your “Black” Indigenous American US Census population data is FAKE also….OUR US Population is greater than (>42%), while the LEGAL Indian/Asian Immigrant US Population is less than (<5%). \n\nIt BUGS me when FOREIGNERS come to OUR “Black” Indigenous American country and try to tell Us OUR AMERICAN HISTORY! We have HISTORICAL RECORDS, FAMILY GENEALOGY TRACKING AND INDIGENOUS AMERICAN DNA! \n\n\nPlease include your IMPOVERISHED fellow Indian-Countrymen when you’re BRAGGING about your UNDERPAID “Tech” hourly wages (with ZERO benefits).

Protest? You're not a citizen. You don't vote. You have no right to protest. Go home.

You sound just like a clown, costumer….is that your actual accent, sound like you can’t hear how English is spoken and you’re speaking English ?

Same rules and process for everyone. There are no shortcuts andno one cares you're a track star.

They're pride only for there's economy and there's administrative bodies are jares the foreigners for that They're for money here not for work but because of they want to earn more money from foreigners they don't want to care about them..... the administrative bodies are so careless and like gangsters facing to the foreigners now a days..

We’re losing our tradition, our kindness and our warmth.

Our future isnt you're means to retire. The elderly cannibalising the future, disgusting.
