Despite being the 5th largest economy, India still faces significant challenges in wealth distribution and visa compliance. While economic strength is a factor in visa approvals, it is not the only consideration. One major issue is visa misuse and overstaying. With a population of 1.4 billion, even if 10% were to overstay in foreign countries, that would be 140 million people—almost half the population of the United States. This creates serious concerns for immigration systems worldwide, leading to strict visa vetting processes for Indian applicants.\nFurthermore, while India’s economy is large, the majority of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. A high GDP does not necessarily mean the average citizen enjoys financial security. Many people seek better opportunities abroad, sometimes through illegal means, which further justifies the need for stringent immigration policies.\nAnother issue that affects how Indians are perceived abroad is the behavior of some tourists. While not all are at fault, a growing number of incidents involving disrespectful behavior, disregard for local laws, and unruly conduct have led to Indian tourists gaining a negative reputation in some countries, including Nepal. This has made them among the least desired tourists in certain regions.\nUltimately, visas are not just about how much money a country has. Factors like overstays, illegal migration risks, and tourist behavior all play a role in shaping immigration policies. Respect and reputation are earned, not entitled. If you want to be welcomed and respected abroad, it’s essential to create a positive impression through responsible actions and cultural sensitivity.

Majority of Americans of indian descent voted for orange chetto man fafo

The reason for denying room to students is because they mess the place. Dont know how to maintain the place they live\n Not all are like tat but majority comes in. And i myself faced it. I gv my place to live to almost 5 different Indian students ar different times.. all messed the room also left me repairs which i had to spent. I had sympathy wen students come for accomodation so i gave a helping hand instead i ended up spending 1000s

Majority of Indians support what Donald trump is doing with all illegals. I lived in the US for 4 years (2016-2020) and left on time, never sought PR or long term residency. It was a great experience and love USA and its people. Most of the Americans are very good people.

Indians deserve it. Just teach Indians to stop arrogance, ignorance and false expectations to be treated like some Royals. Majority of Indians are coming with fake visa, fake CV, fake experience. A very few smart and intelligent make it to the top. And the worst thing is they will go to foreign land and play like victim card and expect foreigners to learn Indian culture instead of them learning foreign culture.

only illegal r being deported; indians or indian government dont have any problem with that; treatment of deportees is something indian govt is discussed with Trump government; its not a major issue; india wants to deport illegal bangladeshis, rohingyas from our country; fake news network wants to create issue between US and India; it will nt happen

The Australian government finally realize that majority of these visa enter in Australia are working in the 711 store and Petrol station ! own by their Indian Boss !

Very good message to Indians Majority of them violating rental lease agreements, traveling with outicket on public transportation and shop lifting big time what a shame

The problem is throughout the Anglo World, USA, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand, we are allowing millions of immigrants from the third world, when in fact if AI is going to take 70/80pct of jobs in the future we do not need immigrants from the third world at all. The fewer people we have, the more wealthy we are. The other problem is allowing immigrants from non-compatible cultures of people who do not share our values, culture, religion, or way of life, they generally live in their own areas, speak their own language, and do not/cannot integrate into society, most consider themselves as Indian, not Canadian because like for instance in the UK where we have similar or worse problems, they can never be English, or Scottish, or Welsh or Northern Irish. We are not and never have been nations of ''communities'', we are Canadian, American British, and Australian, but we are all connected in our Judeo-Christian roots, values, culture, and way of life, the vast majority of these third-world immigrants can never be part of what we are. That causes resentment, even jealousy, and one day it will end badly

All these countries like Canada, US are relying on Indians, Chinese and other foreigners to run their tech economy. Indians are taking huge loans (like 40L) to sign up to their universities. Their locals are not signing up for it. They are incompetent. Foreign students are a major source for their universities. More than 95% are foreigners. If not for foreigners, then these programs will shut down. And then they poach these foreign students to work in their tech sector. Without Indians & other foreigners their tech economy will collapse. They know this. And they will also pretend that immigrants are the problem and $h1t on us. fkers. Fellow Indians, know that they are scamming you. Better to go for higher education within India. Get funding and do a startup in India. All these countries like US, Canada will crush your dreams. Go there only if you are mediocre. If you are talented, stay in India and work for a startup

India is helping turn Russian crude oil into diesel and gasoline for the global market.\n Despite Western sanctions, Indian refineries are benefiting from Russia's reduced oil prices and Reliance Industries is among the major beneficiaries due to cheap Russian oil.\n While Russia earns about $10 billion a month from oil exports to India, the Indian population does not directly benefit from the crude oil deal. But what does India gain from this shady business, in which one of the richest men in the world is also heavily involved? Who on the subcontinent benefits? And does the Indian population also benefit from this crude oil deal?

Why so you think indian visas are rejected ..... They don't know how to live in a community.\n\nWhen you get Visa for a country that country expects you to intergrade and live according to their standards...\n\nIrrespective of multicultural efforts paid for by governments indians live so dirty destroying the neiborhood...\n\nNever cleans after using a space\nNever care the time boundaries respected by others\nThrows garbage allover the place \nSteals \n\n\n\nThis is not for all Indians , I know some respectable indians too but majority is like this ...

Majority of people migrating to canada are from a single Indian state Punjab, but dont blame them to migrate when your government couldn't do math on how many people it need and invited foreigners desperately to come because its population is getting old without building houses/ without enough jobs.

Trump wants the country to be majority white, not fake white like latins, lite Indians etc. Anglo Saxton white.other than white people he wants it to contain only former slaves, and few few few others

Please net zero migration, mostly from India, I personally will not want to live within major Indian population, I am sure current Australian Indian will not want to leave India and live in India again (if Australia become majority Indian)

I'm seeing what Punjabis here in Canada showing..all of their tantrums means majority are frustrated. My employer in Canada now says he respects south Indians they started viewing it as south vs north culture thing.

europ is afraid about mass migration and india is on the top of the list,,its 1500 millions indians peoples,,,too much people,,,,,thats the gouvernement think that the majority want to stay in europ for a better quality of life

They didnot talk about world major populous country like india. Majority illegal migraints are indians. Why didnot they talk about indians deportations ?

I think the reporter should do proper research. Human development index(education, job, safety, etc.) and the number of overstaying Indians are the major factors why they tend to reject a lot of applicants from India. If India could provide a better living standard, its people would tend to return and not to overstay abroad. But this is not the case. The number of Indians wanting to migrate abroad manifests otherwise. It seems like there is a scarcity of resources in India. No wonder they are shocked that people abroad give tips for a service.

As an Indian Immigrant who left recently, here are few tips for Canadians:\n\n1. Not every brown person is Indian, I knew people from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka identifying themselves as Indians.\n\n2. Its not entire India but two major states, Punjab and Gujarat, with majority of aggressive actions coming from IMMIGRANTS from Punjab and not native Punjabis who are born and brought up here.\n\n3. Immigrants can’t vote, so majorly its not your fault and so is not immigrants fault but the Government that the CITIZENS elected brought immigrants for boosting their dead economy.\n\n4. Controversial but I will say it, Canada is a FRENCH country with English as its second major language. No others language is as prominent, So if you are sure that a brown person is an IMMIGRANT and they can’t even speak ENGLISH properly let alone French, 99% chance he/she is a problem in your country and does labour work.

Indians are everywhere then later on they demand and wants to rule other country just like canada. If u go canada its like india now and also in other countries they are majority than the people living in that country. Some of them are demanding but when people ask them they dont care this is based on experience of people encounter them.

The majority of Indians are wonderful people, despite the fact that some of them are lethargic, unfriendly, slow-moving, and most importantly, foul-smelling. I apologize and I'm not racist; I'm simply speaking the truth. When it comes to population increase, they are comparable to rabbits.

INDIA IS NOT A RICH COUNTRY. POVERTY .CORRUPTION AND ILLEGAL MIGRATION FROM INDIA IS RISING .THE REASON WHY THE INDIAN PASSPORT IS NOT SO STRONG. THE LIVING STANDARD OF THE MAJORITY OF INDIAN CITIZENS IS VERY LOW .MANY DEVELOPED COUNTRYS DO NOT TRUST INDIAN CITIZENS.

India is a big country. Indians in America are the highest earning ethnic group for good reason. Their education and employment backs it up. However, the illiterate bunch that Canada imported from Punjab who by trade are farmers, truck drivers, taxi drivers and other labor intensive workers, is the reason why Canadians are pissed. The majority of the “students” barely speak English, which makes you wonder if the IELTS is even legit. Add the fact that cost of living is through the roof, Canada is a shitshow. The blame goes to: a. India b. Canada \n\nIndia is to blame for not having oversight over these so called “consultants” who help with immigration abroad. These agencies work with fake schools to allow so called students to emigrate. \n\nCanada is at fault for not doing their due diligence when issuing visas. Trudeau is a communist and single handedly destroyed Canada with his buddy, Jagmeet, by bringing all those Punjabis into Canada. Those Punjabis belong on a farm or driving a truck in India, not in Canada. Smart Indians want nothing to do with Canada now and this in turn will hurt Canada grow as a nation.

Same thing is happening in Cambodia land borders with Indians passport. They are denying entries for Indian majorly.

World is now totally against Indian hindus coz of rss bjp modi hate politics against muslims, sikhs, christians. Major religion of world are muslims and christians so we own the world not rss bjp bhakts ?

This news is unfortunate but we cannot deny the fact that majority of Indians lack civic sense. The poor and the lower middle class who lack civic sense are not the problem. Sorry for the prejudice, but they rarely plan to travel abroad. The problem is with the middle class (and even rich) Indians who have the money to travel abroad but lack even basic civic sense.\n\nThis is very unfortunate, but I have seen this with my own eyes.

800 Millions Indian ?? are surviving on the government subsidies of 5 kilograms rice and wheat plus there is no Law in order in the country are the major cause refusal of the foreign visas

No matter how big is Indian economy, overwhelming majority is poor. How can a European or US officer can give visa a person who can be a burden on them?\nA rich Indian don't have any problem to get visa of any country. Same is for other countries.

When you dont let people come in your house as people want then dont express your stupid analogy of have gates. If so why the heck you have borders on pakistan and china? Our own people are the reason why they have started rejecting visas. People come here in the name of education and then demand PR. Many come here with dodgy certificates for which some indian states are banned. Majority come here and dont assimilate but instead make their own country within a country even becoming citizens. If u r so proud why come here?

Well, Indians have a talent for uncultured public behaviour. Till people learn to be civic, India will never move forward & will always remain as a most hated country where even racism against Indians has become a norm for majority of countries.

As an Indian , I support the rejection rate . Indians lack civic sense majorly. Also Indians are amongst the highest number of illegals entering USA and other countries these days .

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 ?

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

Why is it so difficult to figure out why ? Man I man an Indian living in Canada for more than 52 years. Majority of Indians who are migrating to Canada in last 10 plus years are criminals, even murderers. What happened to Indians ?

Because our govt is not teaching compulsory civic sense training to those who are going outside country. Those already out there are already setting bad examples in the name of Indian and causing one of the major reason for your heading.

Indians themselves to blame. In New Zealand and Australia they used to be professionals from India but now 4/10 working in supermarkets billing, getting the ? back, subway are Indians loud, speaking their mother tongue ..major culprits are Punjabi, Hindi, Telugu and behave badly, bought to think western woman are easy. Here they smile everyone, smile and walk away. ladies here have very poor opinion on Indian men. Where is the cross cultural training ? India should not allow passports unless people pass cross cultural training

It's very contradicting to hear that Hindus are the most law-abiding citizens, highly educated, good jobs, helping in their society. And now, I am wondering who these Nepotism ones are using Indian passports and from where the negative accusations are from. Who are the culprits in these cases, and don't forget there is also lots of hate created toward Hindus, their way of life, temples, being headans, not belonging to the abrahamic majority in any of those countries.\nMy sincere advice, don't visit abrahamic countries at all. They have broken, severed, you from your own culture, taught you to be like them, yet they all refuse you like you should not exist, not someone or something like them. Why doesn't anyone just wise up and stay in their own habitat? By the way, so you know, Shiva Ji himself if anyone has read the bhavishya purana, said to us to avoid going in such countries or be with those barbaric asurs and mleccha. But, if you've forgotten those roots, it's only understandable you want to feel belonging within those who despise you already in one or many ways. Like Shrimati Palki said, go only to those few countries for the time being. In the meantime, take very good care of those you love and learn how to protect them in a world that is very hostile against all Hindus, Sanatani's.

Majority of Indians are not tourist. They are trying to come to the west to stay here permanently. That is why 30 & 40 year olds are coming as students ?

Majority of Indians are abusing visas in many countries. Thats the reason for the rejections.

Only thing Indians can do is to drop their arrogance, and accept there are major problems in india and in Indians. Because with acceptance comes development/improvement

Most of the Indians travel to the west want to stay back in there. Go ahead go, go to Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia etc there you cannot stay back, you will be arrested. In the us Indians are 3rd largest illegals living there, that tells all. If USA was closer to india, all the Indians would be the majority in the USA

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

Im from Tamilnadu and while abroad i worked in shell for a shutdown i saw north indians workers spitting pan just before the englishmen and I, as an engineer from the same nationality as these backward people have to feel 2nd hand embarrassment for what these people do.\nMany in kerala and Tamilnadu behave well and have good manners. Unfortunately the majority of north Indians are like this excluding some guys who are very well behaved than me. Not out of hate but out of frustration.

For whats going on around world , considering all kinda facts ... majorly survival...\n\n\nI guess, its better thing for Indians and even for other countries... indirectly doing favor ...

Indian Government should voluntarily help countries to deport illegal Indian immigrants. Though majority of Indians travel abroad for holidaying , around 25% of them try to illegally settle in host countries . This is not just problem of Indians, even Pakistanis & Bangladeshis also has same mentality. Hence GOI should bring in strict rules and mechanism to stop illegal migration from India . This will boost confidence on Indian passport .

- Majority of Indians travelling overseas have several issues mainly: civic ethics, behaviour, stealing, ego, no empathy, rude, overstay on tourist visas, and claiming refugee in US, UAE, AUS, NZ and Canada. So of course rejection rate is high.

Illegal immigration. Majority of indians once they reached the western countries, they dont leave and become illegals. (And yet this reporter badmouth america whenever she can?) I dont see other countries going to india and becoming illegals? Arrogance is another issue.

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 ...

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.
