Sorry, but how about us? We suffer with all of this 3rd world people coming. Our schools are going down. Our health system is going down... Our neighbohoods are going down...

The whole world could see this coming. The Americans want a secure border and they like the rest of the western citizens are sick and tired of the open borders. Australia has the same problem we have a disgustly slack leftist government allowing people through airports

As a South African Indian, I am frequently embarrassed by the raucous and immature behaviour of many tourists from India. South Africans have learnt discipline, Indians from the subcontinent appear to have missed this lesson. Apart from their clannish nature and biased view of other people of colour, Indians need to learn humility- not just preach it, but practice it. It may appear like a minor issue to you, but it certainly portrays you in bad light. The world has become an intolerant place. Having money doesn’t make you more tolerable. Drop the cocky attitudes and practice patience- it may just change the bitter taste Indian tourists have left in the mouths of many people around the globe.

LIKE MOST OF INDIANS IN INDIA WILL ROB CHEAT AND MISLEAD YOU, AND THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY CAN DO THAT IN OTHER COUNTRIES AND THINK THAT THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT. VERY VERY DISHONEST PEOPLE IN YHE WORLD.

India is the Rape Capital of the World. What do you people expect? Special treatment and free pass all over the world.

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

INDIA Is notorious for abusing laws in the abroad and divert opportunity into scamming people and make a bad name for everyone!\n\nCheck h1b and how Indian law firm pervatized it by submitting fake application. Same thing with Canadian PR where they were literally selling job offer letter for 20-30 lakhs in lmia or something it called.\n\nNo wonder why world is hating yall.

Well india now has more than 1 billion middle class people looking to travel abroad. Lots of countries cannot handle the sheer number of indian tourists. India gets more than 70% of the usa H1B Visas so it's already getting most of the world's Visas. Maybe Indians should stay home and support states like Goa that are suffering from a lack of tourists

And people here say that Modi Made India famous on World stage?????

Just trying to highlight the hindrance ,, as situation changes everyday ,,the current world leaders r discouraging the conception of global village …Basically the next decades r good for rich people as they r the only ones who can meet all the requirements …

Worlds 5th largest economy with over 300million living on less than 4$ aday, extreme unsanitary cities and almost 1.5 billion people aint much of an achievement... U.S lip service period has expired and countries are starting to see true India, riding the wave of U.S support and propaganda will only get you so far

India is also exporting the their native discriminations as well such as the caste system and discrimination of other people. There are already too many Indians in this world. Indians are also too materialistic and greedy.

We'll 1st world countries know not to import 3rd world people

Nothing to worry. Its hell. I wish they had never given us visa . They been playing with our lives for several years. I have a kid who was born in USA and has mild autism. No one will believe how they have tortured us. How they never let me keep a job . I kept moving to different places but noone will hire me or rent us a descent house. They anyways hate us so why to go there to be the slave of the same people who tortured your kid. In pune applied to jobs and school for him, but noone will admit him. Because of his condition he forgets everything. Had he been a normal kid and gone through all these he would have got traumatized for life. When i used to watch in the news so many kids dieying in American airstrikes, now i have been through that experience of torture they are capable of you question your own existence. How in the world one can forget or forgive the people who plays with you kids life?

JUST BECAUSE THE WEST IS USING INDIA TO STOP THE RISE OF BRICS OR FINANCING INDIAN ANTI CHINA HATE AND PROPAGANDA DOES NOT MEAN YOUR WESTERN MASTERS WANT YOU INDIANS IN THEIR NATIONS.. SORRY INDIA THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INDIA AND CHINA..THE CHINESE KNOW THEY ARE NOT WELCOME IN THE WEST SO THEY DEVELOPED THEIR NATION WHERE WESTERNERS ARE FLOCKING TO CHINA. NO ONE RESPECTS A NATION WHERE 75 % OF THE POPULATION IS LIVING IN HELLISH POVERTY AND OPEN DEFECATION IS THE NORM. STOP DEMANDING THAT OTHER NATIONS TAKE IN YOUR OVER POPULATED POPULATIONS.YOU GUYS ARE CELEBRATING THE WORLDS LARGEST POPULATION, THEN TAKE CARE OF YOUR PEOPLE.

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…

We are far better now than 12 years before… as we are economically strong whole world has to accept us . no other way for them… still our people behavior must change only

Indian people claim that India is the best country in the world and next day you will find all of them in the airport desperately trying to escape from that best country.

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.

World Hunger Index 2024 : India stands #105 ( severe hunger ) out of 123 Countries , Bangladesh rank #84 ( moderate Hunger ) , Nepal #75 . USA excluded India of the 18 countries to get access to A. I Technology ( doubting India's Ability ) , Trump invited Chinese President but not Modi in his Inauguration . One third of World's Extreme Poor People live in India

shame on you ! putting dust in the public eyes is far more dangerous than harming a person. Why First post have fear @Palki Sharma to show Indian real face? Put your camera down in any country, Name it : Germany, Italy, America , Canada, Australia, Newzeland, Hungary , Amsterdam, UK, Scotland. Palki sharma jist name it and put your camera on ground and do the survey. You will feel Indians are world 3rd country Parasites in these countries. Why Indians fail to show respect and basic hygiene when they are in abroad? Specially Punjabis ! Have you smell them ? Not taking bath and roaming on the streets with bad odour leaves permanent mark on other Indians reputation.(by the way i am from amritsar and a punjabi). NOW WORLD IS KNOWING :- Indians believes that they cannot benefit unless someone else is harmed. This is Indian culture at its core and white people are also knowing this. If India is that great then why Indians are leaving ? If your culture is that superior then why you want to go to other country ? Enjoy your superiority. Accept the reality . TRUTH IS BITTER

Indian has talent that world needs, so does Cuba have the best doctors in the world. Problem India has it the respect they show when living in other people countries. People are telling their government to change policy. Canada is changing government to remove all illegal scammers with Canadian visa in Canada.

Our own Home Grown Animosity creating media and the total lack of ANY respect for others is along with the VILE Call center scammers stealing Money from other does NOT go Down well with the Anglo Saxon/ UAE groups of countries! It should be HIGHER rejection rate considering India's GAZXA genocide DIRECT involvement we have seen this in my country Egypt you do not fare well! India is the ONLY country in the WORLD where people have been killed for eating Beef in the History of MANKIND!

Palki you should know better.\nThey invade other peoples countries like roaches and milk it and scum it and send all money back to india and never loyal to the country they reside in. So no one wants them period.\n5th or tenth world economy right then stay back in your country.

Well done. This India is scamming innocent people’s hard working money around the world. Need to teach their lesson. I feel sick when my phone rings. Sometimes I miss my important calls as well. \nAlways staring from Mammmmm ? and trying to robe the money ?

I'm sure the number of people applying for visas from Burkina Faso is nothing compared to India... The most populated country in the World !!

Useless indian embassies around the world wasting tax payers money. Can't believe these people are IFS qualified..

The world sees the negative things Indians are doing in their country that's why the whole of India is being painted with same brush, countless Indians are robbing stealing and running gangs in Canada that's what they show the people, what do you think the public will see don't be bias like the other Media outlets

1.3 B PEOPLE CANNOT HANDLE THE WORLD!!!!

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.

Good, Indians are all over the world and few people are interested in visiting India.

Because despite the Indian propaganda India is a smelly 3rd world failed state that lives off the income of exporting its people to receive their remittances.

The world See the issues and wrong behaviour of India ! How the treat others it’s come back as Karma ! India think the r big Bit noooooooooooi! India Young and smart people will leave India! Bcs Indian Goverment is just horrible and keep also the criminal hassina ! Thats for what India will suffer!

Since one in five people in the world is Indian, there are only so many Indians the world can absorb before being overrun by foreigners. The same thing with Islamic and African migrants to Europe. No one wants them.

They don’t care about Canada but come here and force us to adapt while we’re in a housing and economic crisis and overpopulated and just finished lockdowns and layoffs and are being a gaslit into thinking we’re racist for seeing only one culture in our own country. it’s quite something especially for us who are still struggling to pay bills and make any money and have any joy in life seeing people come and claim victimhood in a place they just got too on purpose is quite appalling. It’s just Canadian culture is inherently taught to be honest and treat everyone equal when they know this and use it against us so they can lie and only help there own. It’s quite interesting how American politics has gotten young Canadians so confused on self identity and the idea of being racist that were just allowing it and bending over for them. Canadians are lonely and poor and cold and confused and will never own a home but immigrants are coming in and just expecting us to assimilate to there own culture across the world. I hope things change in the media as the media seems to be neglecting real Canadian hardships and sees Canadian citizens as rich privileged people that aren’t being directly fucked by this

There is nothing wrong with rigorous checks. I would want the same for India as well. Vet who gets to enter the country! No one should get a free pass. Ultimately, visitors must benefit the receiving country in some way and not impose additional burden! Would you not want rigorous checks for people entering our country through neighboring territories such as Bangladesh, Nepal, and you-know-who? Thank goodness for border control. It preserves the rule of law throughout the world.

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.

Anti-immigration sentiment=Not wanting third world people to come to your country that litter everywhere, act with zero civic sense, break all the laws and increase corruption by hiring their own into positions of power

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

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.

Lots of phone scammers have already got the Green card in the USA. Scammers were given student visa by carriers and they work as couriers. Stealing from poor people.\nIn UK ALL of scam calls I am getting are from Kolkata. They steal poor pensioners without any heart. Heartless and cruel. Indian students miss behave, laugh and talk louder on the high streets, drop waste on the street. Truthfulness, kind heartless should be part of education system. Also there's no place for bribe in these countries. In India rich parents show their kids how to get around by bribery.\n\nEducated and intelligent Indian scammers are a world known issue.

Let us look for opportunities at home first. Let us be better citizens. We have a Prime Minister whom the world admires ...... unfortunately the world do not admire his people as much.

We need some serious mannerism tutorials . People have pathetic civic sense here and every where in the world !!

India is only a 5th largest economy on paper! It has the largest population of poor people in the world and off late India's diplomatic ties with many nations have taken a nosedive, even though the government would like you to believe something else.

Our worst & waste PM Modi needs to focus on helping his people instead of traveling the world. Before his ban from the USA, he seemed more engaged, but now he appears to prioritize globetrotting rather than effective governance.

The government must do something about the movements of its people. I guess it's time for reciprocal visa arrangement with every country. India must leverage itseconomic status as the fifth in the world. It's time to stand up against those countries belittling other nations.

ANGLOS ARE NOT GONNA SIT THERE & LET INDIANS BECOME MORE POWERFUL\n\nThis is Abrahamics we are talking about & that too ANGLOS. LOL at the people who think every one will be happy as India becomes powerful. Honey, that is not how real world politics works. The top dogs want you to be weak, so that they can consume you.

Other than behavioural attitude it depends upon the how the country projects the image to the outside world. \n\nSecond reason, more the people settling abroad more the rejection. Less the people settling down in abroad more the visa. \n\nI lived in GCC for many years they give visa easily to Europe and the US because these people go for pleasure trip and come back not to settle down

Hilarious that not so long ago Palki was in Oxford giving a speech about how powerful India passport is. Apparently according to her the Immigration officer in the UK was impressed about her Indian passport.lolzz. Indian passport holders and quite unfortunately Indian citizens/Indian subcontinent folks are some of the least respected people around the world. People who travelled around the world can relate to this easily. I am not gonna blame the govt completely for this issue. Unfortunately basic civic sense and behavioral etiquette are literally non existent among majority of Indians. Its a sad reality which wont change in India

Indian keep blowing their own trumpet but the world isn't stupidly being cheated by unscrupulous Indian people any more
