The rejection is because they are unwanted house guests with terrible manners. They’re hygiene and accents doesn’t help either.

USA freaking ows me 16k for visa application. Even my STUDENT visa was rejected in spite of having my course started online, all my legal docs and education scores on point. For no reason it was rejected and reason also not shared. If the purpose is not met why use people's money? Utter nonsense visa process and fees.

Rejected

This discussion has no value incomplete study /facts what type of visa got rejected and what is the reason presenter objetive is to create cheap media sensation pathetic .

Modi will teach a lesson to all countries rejecting visas

Eastern Europeans were regularly rejected visas from Western European countries decades after the fall of the Berlin wall.

Just what Canada needs, America's rejects.this is another reason for Canada to become part of america.we don't have to put up with these rejects. .

The baseline is a that Canada has a responsibility to its citizens but has no obligation to foreign persons. Clearly more could be done with less by promptly rejecting of applications except for short list skill sets. Person with problematic political beliefs should be deported ASAP. Canada doesn’t need foreign demonstrators and Canada haters in the country and should take action similar to Italy.

Why are these countries rejecting indians. There must be a valid reason

That rejection is simply because they dont want population explosion in their lands. Its like you poor family bear so many children, cant afford education, proper dresses, proper behaviour, proper hygine and so you let loose all your poor kids to another small families. The small rich families are afraid when you try to flood them with your that many kids ??

Why?? So many Indian migrants already and not only Indians are being rejected.

Really? How shocking! I thought ‘bharat’ is the best country in the world and being an Indian is a matter of pride. How can they reject our visa applications? ?

If you wanna know why all these rejections, look at Canada! Canadians are some of the nicest people on earth, but the anti-Indian sentiments in the country have been steadily growing over the past few years for a reason. While some of them settle into the Canadian culture, a lot of them have instead decided to import India to Canada. The question then is, why not stay in India? If you wanna be Canadian, be Canadian, don't try to turn Canada into India 2.0. That's why Canadians seem anti-Indian now.

I don't understand why India has to be so reliant on foreign countries. Especially with so many young and talented kids joining the workforce. Indians are smart people, and are bright and talented, and should focus on making work/life conditions better in their own country and focus on the growth of their own country. It's not like we lack intelligence, or culture, or values. I don't like this constant feeling of rejection if visa gets denied to move to a foreign country. Oh we can quadruple our income in a foreign country and send money home. Make changes in India to facilitate that, and not have to feel reliant on a foreign country to make that happen. It's time to make other countries want to come to India for a better future..

in desho ne vija reject ka dhandha bana rakha hai reject to paisa vapas karo

Palki they have their own reason for rejection, not just simply rejecting, as you said rejection rate is nearly 10 or 15% only, what do you say about granted percentage, don't think that every visa applications will be granted, one first needs to fulfill the visa requirements.

Now do some research to see how many rejections Russia, China, North Korea, Syria, Iran have made.

I am surprised that someone like Palki is asking this question. The West won't answer that? It's because of our behaviour, our fake documents and the scams that we pull. Why does the Indian government not address the fact that India has been running the world's biggest immigration scam? Punjab, Gujarat (emphasis on the rat), Haryana, Delhi, etc - the biggest scam running ever. 95% of them do not know how to behave in public and will gather enmass, no doubt a posse of fellow fraudulent immigrants with their fake scores and IELTS documents all paid for and forged by their fraud agencies, and then they make a mess in the foreign country that they go to. Start a F*cking chat counter and lay those stupid cots all over the parking area and then bring their entire family, who can't speak English or the language of that land and then roam around. Possibly even peeing and shitting on the street! Like they do back in India. They basic courtesy that the West take for granted, these country baboons cannot try to emulate, but they will act out the dumb dancing & acting tough of their fool actors in their favourite nonsensical Bollywood movie. The music, especially Punjabi music (those annoying repetitive tinga tinga tinga torture that they pass for music), their dumb chole batture and all sort of BS. These morons possibly want Hindi & Punjabi to be adopted as the new national languages of the West. Being Indian myself I would reject everyone. Or do interviews that check for so many things and then only accept them. We are now universally hated! Congratulations!!

Huge global backlash against Indians - such a bad reputation as travellers and immigrants, Canada will be rejecting more India visa applicants and deporting many Indian

Of course there should be rejections! You people move abroad drive up inflation and cost of living, where it is near impossible for the actual citizens of that country to adapt. Not only that, you come abroad on student visa's and find loopholes in systems to stay longer than you are required to and apply for permanent citizenship. You've ruined the sovereignty of many once great countries such as Canada, United Kingdom and Australia, so what did you expect? Along with the rejections they need to start deporting people back to India also.

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 NRI for a decade in Germany, I can assure you that not a single person in the developed western world looks at India with a nicer opinion. They think of it as a necessary baggage. They will only allow Visa on Arrival/E-Visa for people whom they respect and would like to be in the country. While I do not want to get into how some Indians behave when they are on their EU trip, Indians in India do not behave well too. This involves hygiene, roads, infrastructure, intelligence, corruption, etc. Indians tend to look at the Indian flag with tears in their eyes while listening to A.R. Rahman’s “Vande Mataram” with Bharat Bala’s video. But the reality in the western world is this: India is a loud, messy, unhygienic, poorly organized country filled with corruption and crime everywhere. Now, why would a well-developed country open their doors to potentially unruly 1.4 billion people? The reason for visa rejection is that a lot of them simply apply for a tourist visa and never leave. If someone really needs to travel, they will have the money and the motivation to apply multiple times. Hence, the first check with multiple layers of bureaucracy.

they reject India, their loss

India's economy has stalled. India also has the rare distinction of being a potential economic powerhouse that won't deliver for its citizens, so its citizens want to upend their lives and move abroad . . . by any means necessary, especially visa fraud - by pretending to be students and working full-time (in violation of student visa requirements), by engaging in sham marriage for sole (and unlawful) immigration benefit, just to name a few outrageous things Indians do. I'm a foreign national of Indian origin, and I support these rejections. Every sovereign country makes it owns decisions as to who is and isn't allowed to enter their country; India is no exception, given its history of refusing visas (many a times, for political reasons). Aap karo to sahi, aap par aayi to mirchi lagi? Oh, and companies abroad get Indian IT talent not because it is good, but because it is cheap (and eventually delivers projects) - big difference. If Indian IT was so dang awesome, you'd think they'd be visionaries in the field, but nope, by and large, Indians consume; they do not invent, but rather implement existing technologies, and have little to offer to the world in terms of scientific and technological breakthroughs at present - with some exceptions.

Flaunting Visas to Visas being rejected?. What a shift Palki ?

As an Indian i support rejection because mostly Filth is going abroad and those who fo being utter shame to india especially Andhra,punjab, haryana, and north indians

You guys gate kept the jobs from Canadians, rejecting our applications and pay us unliveable wage, then cry that you dont have enough workers, only to go get foreign workers to replace us.Then cry about crime rates and the housing market. Canadians want to work!!, we have been working for many winters now!!, but you guys keep preventing us from working because you want cheap labour. cheap labour comes with a lot more economic issues than hiring citizens. Our concerns were ignored and we were called lazy...to the point where someone like DONALD TRUMP is laughing at us and calling us a state. lining your pockets wasn't enough, now our integrity as a country is being questioned. If Trump made us a state, I would NOT be surprised.

We Indians should do some introspection instead of blaming others. It is Indian passport holders who get caught illegally staying in other countries and misbehaving overseas. Lets fix that and rejection rates will go down.

I’m an Indian passport holder living abroad due to personal reasons. I’m eligible for the citizenship of a country that most people would dream to get but I do not like to apply for the same because then I would have to renounce my Indian citizenship (India does not allow dual citizenship). Indians themselves are responsible for visa rejections because most of our people (not all) go under the disguise of tourists with the intention to settle in that country. What kind of treatment would you expect then? I came legally and despite never compromising with my cultural values, I have always felt welcomed in the country that I live in. It’s about how you present yourself in the country that you live in. People are good everywhere in this world.

Lack of civic sense is the biggest reason why this rejection rate is going to increase even more

Ramrajya me rejection chalta Hai

its simple... they rejected indians visa application because they suspected its potential going to be illegal imigrant...dont have to be hard thinking of the cause

Visa rejection rate has always been high, the interview process is highly arbitrary. There is no logic to the rejection, it's dependent on on perception of the person interviewing and therefore can be highly biased. It's not right to assume and generalize that Indians are a nation of people where most have bad behaviour - this thought process is itself wrong. As an individual do any of us think that we travel just to indulge in reckless behavior? That is never a first thought - let's not generalize and have a better opinion of fellow citizens. We will be respected by outsiders if we first have respect and a positive opinion as regards each other.

Indian govt bina matlab GST registration application reject kar sakte hai toh dusre desh visa toh reject kar hi sakte hai

What are you complaining. Africans reject rate is 109 percent

Holy Mole Di the Cow, the curry world ppl is asking why their visa is rejected? In the near future they not only reject your visa, they all will stop their citizens entering India.

Indians can't figure out why visas are getting rejected? Maybe it's that they are claiming asylum in record numbers and participating in immigration fraud in many Western countries.

Why are visas getting rejected? Well, that's not too hard to understand, is it? Wherever india goes antimicrobial ? poopartys goes with them. ?

Visa rejection is revenue stream, reject visa and no refund. Use money to run embassy?

As india is the biggest populated country in world the number of applicants from india also will be the highest so the number of rejection also will be the highest...

big fan of palki's news coverage? but she’s mistaken with the visa rejections, it’s actually shameful outcome! ever heard of “uninvited guests”? irrespective whether it’s biased against India, let me remind it’s hosting country’s prerogative plus reflect on why folks still die hard to go there. just think ?

I can understand why these Visas are being rejected. Lack of manners, etiquettes, consideration and sometimes basic hygiene. But the countries who reject indians are the same that open their arms to chinese, middle eastern etc.

Well the rejection rate is good becz we dont need foreign country they need us \nModi ji is working 25 hours in the days super hard \nWhy do we need usa canada uk ... Ate waiting for people likes us... And modi has increased so many jobs as he promised 2 crore jobs\nAll the billionaire are saying this is india season and witness the future \nI feel modi ji should close down all the embassy and open there tax office and ration shop and addhar centre \nAnd bjp it cell office too

Ms. Sharma went to Oxford and gave a cringeworthy performance about the supposed strength of Indian passport and how it is the envy of the word. So. didn't expect much substance from the propaganda spreading jingoistic journalist. She conveniently missed mentioning the real reasons why visa applications of Indians get rejected -\n1) Thousands of Indians go on tourists visas only to 'disappear' and never return. It doesn't just happen in Canada, US, UK, Aus but also welcoming countries like Thailand, UAE.\n2) Indian Visa (to visit India) itself is one of the most expensive and complicated to get for foreigners, so other countries have no incentive to make it easier for Indian citizens.\n3) Developed countries know that if they make it 'easier' for Indians to travel to their country, they will end up with tens of thousands who wont want to go back to India. It is already the case when its difficult to get a visa, imagine the situation if its made easier.\n4) Most of the Indian tourists fall under the mass category, they are not like the heavy spending Chinese tourists. We are not the most well behaved, so till we start getting more affluent, we wont be in as much demand.

work visas or tourist visas? I doubt that tourist visas are being rejected. Nobody has the automatic right to work in another country.

India as a highly populated country which is a huge unorganised mess in every aspect...and the worst part is the developed nations are aware of this. Now use your common sense to understand why the visa rejections.

India should increase its visa fees and return the favors - I always knew the rejections were a scam!

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.

Palki thankyou for this... My friends dream just ended for this Visa rejection

Never see yourself in the truth face. The rejection rate simply indicates the applicants are not fit for the purpose that you declared.???\n\nAll student visa applications should be banned because they are not genuine.???
