GUTKHA and Civic Sense

lets talk about basic civic and common sense which many of of our fellow indians lack, so yeah its better that they are being banned.

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

The rejection rate is increasing as we Indian are going out at a pace which is greater than any of the given country especially if we compare ourselves with China. Second is the civic sense, we have little to no civic sense when we cant keep our own country clean. Third is the general sentiment in the host country, as we are highly skilled and take most of jobs, western people with their inferiority complex cant handle it hence ranking India in the 85th Position.

This is one thing we should learn from japan from very young age. To treat others with respect, keeping surroundings clean , civic sense . Even our 20-40 year olds need to learn these things .

This good news. Any idiot with money and connection was getting through and then dragging reputation of Indians through the mud in foreign countries due to their lack of civics sense.

Our behavior abroad is a problem: talking loud, jumping queues, no sense of personal space, eating habits (we heap our plates at the buffet, can't eat it all & throw it), lack of punctuality etc. Many hotels keep watch on our groups during the free buffet breakfast, for, we tend to surreptitiously fill our lunch boxes on the sly! We go for the cheapest options everywhere (Chinese go for expensive things). Basic manners & maybe a foreign language must be taught from childhood at schools.

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

It is not about being under UN sanctions or under military rule. Many Indian visa applications (especially for student visas) are supported by fake documents. Many try to emigrate by hook or by crook especially to the US or Canada via other countries. And the less said about the behaviour of Indian tourists abroad the better. Dishonesty, cheating and so on may be a way of life in India but other countries still value decency and civic sense.

Its totally crazy, and make no sense

You dont make sense... Numbers you r throwj g were always the same or worse...bjust speaking in heavy accents and using big words dont make the news factual

Just stop applying for visas for any country. If you do this collectively, unitedly for a year or two, it will bring lots of countries to their senses. Bharat is a tremendous huge power because of its population, specially its most powerful(in the world) middle class. Just go and explore Bharat for a year or so. In the meantime I promise that these foreigners will come to their senses and realize their loss. You will see them advertising and pleading you all to visit their countries. Money talks…everywhere.

Well here in Australia it seems like we're losing our sense of national identity. The government has let in too many Indians. I don't want a multicultural society. They are dangerous and divisive. I want a homogenous society.

I am an Indian living in New Zealand, actually one of the biggest reason is the Visa scams Indians do especially from few states which has caused this issue. Also, the kind of people coming into the country, their no sense of comprehension towards the Local laws, culture and traditions.

Logic is population & rupee value..why compare Kosovo or burkina no sense

I live in Canada. A citizen now, love this country but India is and will always be a home. Canada is facing hard times currently, which is being faced by every country now and then but even the cause root of all these problems Canada is facing right now is coming from somehow from India. The most disruptive and disturbing people are here from India only with no civic sense. They come here and do not value the Canadian culture at all. They do all sort of illegal activities and try to do jugaad in everything, from which we escaped from India. Even on political grounds, the man who somehow messed up everything was under the influence and pressure of the man having Indian roots. I love India without a doubt but we can’t deny the real facts why Indians are being hated everywhere. People in my community here ( whites, First Nations, old Indians) love me and my family because they know how we respect the culture and values and laws of Canada. But there, where people don’t know us personally, we get judgemental eyes because of our colour and we know why, it’s not all of us, but still majority of us have destroyed the image of India and yes Indians deserve to be banned now. We need skills and knowledge and we should class apart from the stupid ones.

Cheating, lawless citizens to blame, who don't know how to behave in a civilised setting and lacks basic civic sense. No one prefers people from the land of 'scamsters'. Don't think India is a 'big' thing, and Modi is vishwaguru - politicians and media are just fooling you!!! Yes this is coming from an Indian only.

I usually respect her thought process but this one is completely out of logic. Makes no sense. Maybe when Indian per capita is half of that western world then it might be level playing field. Till then… no

It is funny that we also report the news, as Indians are winning when we talk about Forex transfers. We are happy when allowed to travel or work in other countries. Nobody complains about the Thick folder of documentation when approved.\nWe also have to consider our civic sense approach. We try to replicate how we behave in our home country when we travel to other nations. and if object we are open to defining that objection as racism. \nAre we talking about the numbers of Indians trying to cross borders illegally with the US or Canada? What's our country's take on it?

Non sense i visted europe for new year got my schengen visa in 4 days ?

All the advise doesn’t make sense or has no research. Just follow the rule to the full stop and avoid shortcut or assuming things by yourself to have best chance. Stop making people feel victim always. This is not a good messaging.

Given a chance 2% of tax paying middle class run away from this filthy country??\n\nZero civic sense

Because what this people doing in foreign is shame to country, trashing spitting scamming causing inconvenience to others , no civic sense

How are you going to come on a student visa and force yourself to stay. That legit makes no sense...? Literally none.

This is insane law and all those thousands of landlords must sue the Ontario Tenancy Board for delays in hearing. There is no reasons neither humanity sense for giving landlords frustrations, mental stress and freaky nightmares because of selfish and abusive tenants.

Looking back at this video now is hilarious, this is what complete incompetency and utter mismanagement looks like and the consequences are real for the liberals in 2025. We were in NO position to be martyrs since Canada was already struggling domestically. Look at the comments from 2 years ago, people told the Liberals “No” and they did not listen. \n\nThe Liberals were selfish and abandoned their own country in this sense. Sean Fraser is a sellout and a joke, now he and Freeland are out of the picture but definitely responsible for Canada's current conditions of struggle and misery. \n\nFools....all of them.

Liberals find common sense, only when they have to pay for it, feel it, and see it

I have been in a lot of places working around the world, worked with south asian people. IMO, majority of them ( Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshi, Shri lankans, Nepalese) specially Indians, lacks good manners and right conduct, they don't care about safety at work, don't care about proper health hygiene, unsanitary food preparation, cooking and serving (as we saw on a lot of videos here at YT and other social media platform). It looks like they really don't have any health concerns in regards to food bacterial contamination and safety. If these behaviours maintained and acted on places they go and lived, who you thought would be happy and delighted? Just a common sense...if these people does not and could not do the GMRC (Good manners and right conduct), that a lot of civilized world does, they don't belong and had to leaved.

I am spending CAD but I live among Indians! How does that make sense?! I would have immigrated to India if I wanted to be surrounded by Indians!

Despite all of this, Canada will always need foreign workers. Born canadians are too lazy to do certain work and aristocrtic thinking, especially certain gens, this makes sense. Canada will always needs immigrants. Lets talk about the barrenness as well. If born canadians are not bringing children in the world, where will canada be 20 years from now?....they care more about dogs. Everytime i see a stroller theres a canine sitting there...

Boy ain't she just full of common sense.

Diversity of newcomers made this country good, but now it is just concentrated. Toronto Union station was filled with Indians crossing the track like this is New Delhi..., like they brought their chaos straight into another country. None of us other immigrants from diff nations have brought this kind of behavior without adapting.\n\nAnd for the sake of goodness, if one needs to wear so many layers and walk around the closed space of malls.... wearing deodorant is like common sense and is the basic etiquette for public life in Canada. If you choose to move and live a better life elsewhere, then change your ways. Or else what is the difference of living in Canada from India.

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.

Let's Vote for Common Sense politicians. Not the cutest or prettiest. You don't get my vote unless you're willing to use common sense.

Thank you for your honest attempt to understand our culture our history, our sense of humor, and what makes us Canadian; rather than American. Our general acceptance of immigration brings richness and change to our culture. We have a more cooperative than competetive attitude,I believe. There is a huge American influence, but still a European, British Isles and French component. History had taught us a lot.

Indians are too socially inept, too be respected, lack of manners, and sense of entitlement

That Census data makes absolutely no sense. The majority of Brampton is Indian Punjabi Sikhs. None of these are mutually exclusive. \nIndian and Pakistani are nationalities. Punjabi is an ethno-linguistic group. Sikh and Hindu are religions.

Makes sense. While 41k seems like a large amount, Toronto rents have gotten out of control and people are charging exorbitant amounts. If he was able to use throw her out landlords would be doing so and jacking up the prices. There has to be a system in place and a process.. this takes time, but it’ll play out.

He spent 9 yrs destroying Canada ?? \nAnd now has all these great ideas?\nMake sense of that. \nAlso\nDoes he resemble mick jager or Keith Richards more?\nAs we all know about mommy and the Toronto gig.

It makes sense. 2 illegals don’t make a US citizen.

First and foremost Indian's must learn the meaning of civic sense and automatically everything will follow suit naturally

You are absolutely right. Some of the recent Indian imports to Canada and US are totally unsuitable to reside out of India. Their behavior in public, lacking civic sense, lacking sense of hygiene and lacking politeness. I have lived in the States for 50 years. I have never experienced racism ever. I dont blame Canadians or Americans for being fed up with Indians. Unfortunately some of the new arrivals from India never got the opportunity to learn the etiquettes that the Westerners are accustomed to. They don't care and don't even want to learn. The saying 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do' is completely foreign to them.

It's like Canada's problems could be solved if virtually all of the students went into healthcare. The solutions be common sense and yet countries will not implement them. How about make it easier for students studying healthcare to be able to immigrate.

You appear to be really a sensible and sincere person of Indian origin and extremely concerned about a small section of indian community who do not realise when you are in another adopted country behave like the locals. Adopt their manners and politeness to be respected by the host. This is simple common sense. Already we stand out by our pronunciations and our dress and food. Why make things more difficult by dancing in the open space and behave like junglies?

We do not need illegal migrants, temporary foreign workers like reported in Newfoundland saying immigrants are leaving Newfoundland well good we dont need them this Country like other countries around the world are flooded with immigrants \nWe should be really encouraging born and raised Newfoundlanders outside Newfoundland to come back home and preserve our culture and heritage we are an island and it's very important we embrace that rather then encouraging illegal migrants, temporary foreign workers, into the island,what I don't understand is how come we don't encourage people born and raised Christians from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, New Zealand, wouldn't that make more sense and again preserve our culture and heritage, and I would challenge anyone on that and it's only a matter of time our following will get bigger and more Newfoundlanders will agree ,pkus with Trump in power and soon to be Poliveier we should take a stand snd KEEP NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR STRONG!! Let the immigrants go abd think more about Newfoundlanders that are wanting to go back home and work take the miney the Liberal government gives to the immigrants and put it back in the the ecoyto create more jobs and housing, KEEP NEWFOUNDLAND &: LABRADOR STRONG \nGOD GAURD THEE NEWFOUNDLAND!!

Most of these people from Two states of Indian P, H & G are not able to get INR10k job in their Home Town hence now they are working as cleaners, Drivers, Nappy changer & illegal cash jobs in Canada, UK, Australian etc.. No Education, No skils, No experience & not even basic hygiene & manners, no sense of community. They will even sell their soul for PR VISA. ??

The students didn't have any common sense making illegal entry with the help of fraud agents.

47% taxes :'( im a german with immigrant backround, i had two companies with a 300k turnover after taxes and costs i sometimes made less than my employees - it makes no sense to make money in germany, only if you have a german papa with a lot of rich friends

This is DISGRACEFUL, DISGUSTING, and DOWNRIGHT DESPICABLE- how on Earth does any of this make sense? \n\nLaws need a major overhaul
