SIMPLE - Indians, like the mainland Chinese who came in the previous wave, behave badly in groups! They do not respect the values and norms of the places they visit. However, unlike the Indians, the mainland Chinese are willing to spend on good and services, thus boosting the economies of the countries they visit, unlike Indians……tight arses and penny pinching! This is the feedback from the merchants all over the world!\nAnd we wonder why visas are being restricted………

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!

Stay in India with your bad behavior and practice birth control. They are rude and rac!st and don't respect the culture of the countries they go to being so loud in their own celebrations disturbing the whole neighborhood. And they commit too much fraud to get into people's countries.

Believe or not because of the behavioural issues also become one reason for rejection. Maybe not a big reason but it definitely should consider. Any immigrant who enters to a country must obey the rules and policies, respect others, environment, culture etc. in Canada from some cities other nations are moving out out due this people are trying to make here as their country in all aspects. Most of them are really loud in stores and anywhere we go. Definitely there should be some behavioural lessons for them for sure. Some make illegal documents. Some so gossipy at work places. Some tell so much lies to reach higher places at work. Some are gangsters. We have other nations but I personally see only very few nations don’t blend well with the country. Every country have people as mentioned above but it’s more commonly we see and noticed in some cultures due to poor and no proper education. It’s unfortunate

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

Bad reputations to other countries! You guys must behave and respect rules and cultures to other countries! See what's happening now in Canada!

In Asia they would be shot. Thats why I have so much respect for those countries. Illegal activity that puts their citizens or their well being at risk will not be tolerated. You do the proper paperwork and you get your visas. Cartels put them crying women and children on them front lines to exploit sympathy from Americans. This is a latin American problem why those countries are so bad that those vulnerable women and children are in those desperate situations in the first place? Why is their police/ government not protecting them????

True! West won't answer your question but You too are hiding significant details in this video. Also true, West relies in Indian talent however that does not mean the talented ppl should be above the social construct. In US DFW airport as soon as you exit the airport premises you will start smelling awful odor, walk few steps ahead you will see the reason, all the poles are covered with a grainy red paint like stuff, which as a proud Indian, you would definitely know what it is. Its not like the administration don't clean the place, however, it is still in that condition. This is just 1 of many reason why Indians are being looked at as nuisance these days. Also, what is with Indian mindset to turn everyplace into India, yes culture, tradition and diversity should be welcomed, accepted, and tolerated but if your behavior borderlines with colonizing then, things will head south very fast and that is what most of the Indians do. And finally, what is with Indian behavior, if they are treated with respect they misunderstand it with being submissive and try to dominate the people that are being respectful until they are shown their place and if they are misbehaved then they act as if they are being discriminated. So as a media person, it would be a good thing if you publish a video telling Indians to learn ethics, learn social sentiment, learn proper behavior, and most of all learn to quit back-stabbing behavior before they leave for other countries and I believe in a decade or two these misfortunate events will slowly start to decline.

Our illiterate PM is one of the reason then our mannerless ppl who never respect other countries values ??

They rank countries not only based on the size of their economies but also on the behavior of their people. Palki believes India is a superpower, but for the West, it is seen as a developing country with many people lacking proper behavior, ethics, and hygiene. Indian media needs to understand that respect is earned, not demanded or forced. Many Indians I have met in foreign countries tend to boast about their homeland while choosing to live in a developed country without fully integrating into the local culture. This plays a significant role in the rankings.

I really lost all respect for Palki, she has become the person she criticizes others for. A propaganda machine. Its hard time that she raises real issues that India is facing currently, increasing unemployment rates, low per capita income and most importantly, civil regulations. Because I been to your country multiple times now and I love the experience too but when I see and hear certain things my heart sinks. The government must be held accountable.

They are rejected because india as a country is losing respect given the financial condition of the country. But you don't have the courage to accept it or do a report on it.

Starting to feel Palki is biased towards India than being an honest journalist. Did you even bother to check why Indian visas are getting rejected in these countries? What the rejection reasons were? \n\nAs many have already commented, I will put across a list for Palki -\n\n1. Indians are Indians even outside India, well, what good are you if you do not wish to be integrated and become part of the society? \n2. Do not like to research, and instead ask questions to save time which is bad manners.\n3. Complaining is in our blood about everything.\n4. Be respectful and be considerate of others.\n5. If you are applying for a tourist visa, be a tourist and should return when the visa expires. Get a good insurance which most of the time people are not un-aware.\n6. If you apply for student visa, be a student and do not exploit the visa or violate any rules and extend your visa stay.\n7. If you are hired for work, honour the work permit rules.\n8. Last but not the least, be a good citizena and don't do anything which may spoil your countries' image.

First of all ,Save India from Indians, our ancestors gave us the beautiful land and people destroying this..then they decided not to stop here going to foreign land, showcasing their insensible and unethical behaviour making the whole civilisation embarrased, not following the laws, disturbing other societies.. and holding fake proud of showing off ..and always blames the authorities who are doing good..whts the meaning of 5th largest economy and growing infratsructure if our country still hold 84th passport rank ..Plus an average indian with an uncivilised behaviour representing in foreign land responsible for embarrassment of 1.3 billion people..learn some civic sense and you wont be the reason for racism dont ashamed whole civilization think about our ancestors, respect the law, contribute in economy and be bring peace wherever you go..and thanks for contributing in foreign remittance we are 4th largest

Indians have no respect for their host country and are involved in lots of crime. They bring their local politics and religion and make a mess about it here in Canada. I also think their mindset is very parochial. For example, you hear some Indians saying they are taking over Canada and behaving arrogantly. The Chinese don't behave in that manner despite the fact they have a huge population. Indian so-called talent is just a farce, It's all about cheap labour. Expect more countries to kick Indians out and put in place stringent visa policies.

Biggest obstacle for Indians is lack of respect for foreign land laws. For last 6 decades one can easily witness how careless and carefree Indians live in their own country. Small things from traffic rule followings, bribery, cheating anyone and everyone who is not alert or crook. Their ill actions from very young age onwards speak much louder than their worthless words. Sorry to say this bitter pill of truth, but as you know well, truth always reveals eventuality. Jai Hanumant -

I can tell you exactly why Indias are being rejected.\nIndian’s don’t have self awareness or respect for other cultures when they go to other countries..\nExamples: driving skills, dancing in the streets, noise violations, fire crackers littering on streets and no respect for laws.

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.

Indian bloggers are ruining our chance to visit other countries.\n\nIf you go to other countries, respect their nation. Don't speak in hindi like it's North India; don't treat their country like it's Indian. Don't show your idiotic Indian personality. Be respectful to others.\n\nJust ban bloggers from going out of India and one-fourth of the problem will be solved.

I support the rejection rate. India should learn to assimilate and respect the country they are visiting or moving.

I have travelled to almost 40 countries and have never been rejected for any visa - US, UK, Schengen etc. Reason being, I am a law abiding traveller who respects the rules & regulations of the countries I travel to. I furnish all documents honestly at the visa center. I arrive & leave the foreign countries as permitted on my visa. Traveler's with a clean & honest travel history should have no problems at all.

I worked in India for 6 years and then shifted abroad for a Masters, and now I am pursuing a fully funded PhD. In the UK, what I have observed is that the crop of students arriving from India are by the day lesser inclined towards studies and more in pursuit of the quick buck. Yes, getting a ‘UK based work experience’ is necessary to build the edge to compete against the wider international students post graduation and I have myself worked part-time in profiles which complimented my course in parallel to prioritising studies. However, the increasing trend amongst the masses (I do not want to generalise but yes this is unfortunately true and especially from certain states, the case is magnified: Read Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Telangana) remains getting that student visa to earn quick buck to support themselves financially, chiefly, save up to dole out to so called ‘assignment writers’ which helps them pass the course to further graduate and transfer to a grad visa (again comes at a cost) which allows them 2 years worth of stay with no working hour stipulation post graduation. Thereon, work full time in laborious jobs with again not focussing on applying to full time opportunities in the field of study. Thus, what remains at the end of the day is lost time and opportunity and since I am only talking of people who come here on a Student VISA so primarily, the opportunity cost lost to upskill and further horizons. For the country’s perspective, getting cheap, skilled labour for an unskilled job is obviously an advantage but then there are cases of students not respecting their working hour restrictions, vandalising, bickering loudly, joining hands with the already operating extremist forces which instigate violence and hatred etc. In all, I think the resistance to not becoming bicultural which is a product of serious mental and physical toil and wasting time in frivolity is the main cause of the anti-immigration wave.

We don’t need these ‘privileged’ countries to survive. They need us more than we need them. Let’s degrade their visas and reciprocate their rejection rate. We can survive better in a friendly world with mutual respect than in a world of racist colonialists or wannabe racists. Europe is paying a price for their stupidity. American is next.

Was she the one who spoke in one of the debates that “Indian passport has too much value, ppl now suddenly respect and ask us are you from Mondi’s country?” How come they are happy to see Indian passports but reject India visa??? Hypocrisy ki Seema Khatam

First of all . I am an Indian living in Australia. \n1. The way some of us are behaving in these countries is the worst . Instead of respecting their culture and laws, we start behaving in the same way as in India .\n2. I don't want to put it out, but some people from certain places have a ready solution even if the immigration change their rules . They know every means to cheat their way in. \n3. Take, for example, 200 people come from other countries and do nonsense in India. Will we allow them ? Noooo, right ... but right now, thousands of our Indians are damaging other countries, bringing all kinds of dirty activities we do in India .Unnecessary protests are just 0.1% of them\n\nThis is the best decision taken by the other countries and it should become more strict in the coming days

So journalist only look one side of the coin?..Very pathetic journalism..Tell about the flaws also telll about the current country situation tell about the frauds tell about the religious disputes ..talk about everything then we respect the journalism

Well were you not the one who said they see indian passport and give respect and say modi ji ka country ???

Indian panjabi students they don’t respect others country culture because their lacking knowledge of western. One of most hated south Asian in Canada.

You can always visit sri lanka.as long as you respect the law of the country any body is welcome ?

I have been able to visit Vietnam, Nigeria(office work) & Bali . Not much compared to others I agree. But the behaviour of Indian Language speaking Tourist in these countries is really really horrible. No matter how much these sold out News Anchor or our leader peddle false narrative that Indians are respected our passport etc etc. Indians are least preferred cause of the attitude issue. Even Nigeria whom we mock cause of look and color are more decent than us. Indian deserve this.

Dear Palki and Firstpost channel, I appreciate this post but maybe if possible could you pls make a post/report on why some Indians are desperate to leave and most importantly the behaviour of some of our countrymen in foreign lands which gives a bad repute and leaves a bitter taste about our country in foreign lands? Shouldn't these ppl be held accountable too, especially when they are fortunate enough to have the means to visit foreign lands? I have seen first hand the way some of our ppl behave and try to twist and manipulate everything to their benefit, lacking basic respect.

You know why they are rejected and it serves them right. Their behaviour is pathetic all round. No respect for the countries rules and regulations. Are very ignorant and think they are it. The rejection rate is too low !

What is the purpose of going to Malesia ? US UK Canada are all advanced countries. Seems India GDP is going down . Respect also goes down. You analyze how India lost respect in the world in last 10 years in many areas.

as an NRI who lived in US, UK, and Canada, I can tell you that the so called developed nations are over hyped. Yes, there are so many things that are better in these countries compared to india, but all these countries lack one thing. Respect towards fellow human beings. I lived in several states in India, we have problems, but nothing compared to these countries. Indians don't belong outside of india. Don't go to any country out side of iindia...you are not welcome. I came back to india and I am living peacefully.

after so much kindness politeness and earning lakhs of dollars from Europe do Indian government has any respect for these countries?

Indians are possibly amongst the largest group of overseas travellers just trailing behind the Chinese but the visa application process for us is one of the most stringent. . . Go to any tourist destination in the world and you’ll see an Indian restaurant and fellow Indians, but we are not shown the respect or importance we deserve by diplomatic missions of other countries.

She is fake very convincingly. Come legally, with proper documents, and with open mind to respect the country where you wish to live in. Don't come with your cultural superiority. Most cultures wants freedom of the individual and not bound by chains of age old religious and cultural chains.

@Firstpost and @PalkiSharma\n\nYou once said that foreign country recognise INDIA with the name of MODI’s Country when we (Indians) show our passport at immigration. \n\nCut to now 2:51 you said a different story? Is all your new anchoring a game of the script by the people in power or it just your lack of knowledge.\n\nYou (new media) have a power to amplify the voice of common man, but then you switch off that amplifier and start the game of Views and Money then you lost the respect. I have been watching all the new anchored by you. From WION to FirstPost but since you are just like a common anchor (one who puts makeup and babble according to the script and money) there is no point to watch your show.\n\nYOU ARE ANOTHER IDEOL OF COWERDNESS AND MONEY HUNGRY ANCOR\n\n(*There might be a lot of typo and grammer mishaps, apologies for it)

Well said! I hope our Ministry of Foreign Affairs takes note. It's high time India earns global respect, particularly from the UK, USA and EU. Offering arrival visas to income tax filers could be a game-changer and a start to that direction and will motivating more people to file returns to get that pride status. Currently, only 3% of Indians file tax returns, whereas at least 10% should. This initiative would benefit India and provide developed countries with a better filtering process.

Nope: factor 1: Behave, Respect and show some culture! \nI have lived and travelled many nations. Being an Indian I myself, I have never seen any individual from the countries this lady mentioned posing a strike in any of these countries mentioned rejecting visas. \nThe more you try to impose your selfless behaviour and disrespect the more visas they will reject! So learn and adapt! \nIf you need visas! Don’t hold flags and strikes there disturbing the peace of people living there! It’s just that simple!

There’s a clear reason why visas are often denied to Indians, and it goes beyond just being smart. In today’s world, intelligence alone isn’t enough. As Indians, we need to focus on improving our physical presentation, practicing good hygiene even outside our homes, and developing essential interpersonal skills. Punctuality is also key, it shows respect for others’ time. Instead of blaming Western countries for their perceptions, we should consider adopting some good aspects of their culture that align with professionalism and global standards. These changes can help create a better impression and open more opportunities for us.

instead , just change our behavior when we go abroad and act civilized. and respect that countries culture.

This may be a blessing in disguise to India . I say this not to bring any offence as visa denials are highly prevalent, not only in Canada but in other countries as well. The positive side to this Palki is that India will not suffer brain drain for this season until a new season of visas is granted. Its unfortunate times are changing in Govts policies, which are to be well respected. \nWhile this change presents disappointment I suggest we live through the moments until we embark on a new season when visas will once again be granted. \nWe love India, and I pray blessings on all the people in India. Blessings Palki.

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.

Habibi go to Thailand , Vietnam and Sri Lanka.\n\n Surprisingly 3 Buddhist countries ❤\n\nLove from India. \n\nWe will be honestly send quality tourists to these 3 countries . My fellow Indians : please well behave, dont be too loud resoect their cultures. They love peace, quietness and respect!

how about indians entering countries on visitor visas and staying illegally ... so 1st and foremost we need to mend our ways \nlot of people are after easy money or some fake illusion of luxurious life abroad without putting hard yards in ... fact is most of these idiots end up selling their ancestral properties or forcing parents to take unfavorable loans in search of their world of fantasies .\nMy advice to all such people skill up and work on yourself you will be able to live your life with dignity irrespective of where you are either in India or abroad . Most people don't know the everyday struggles of illegal immigrants .... they are never respected hard to find white collar jobs and end up working overtime and highly underpaid (employers mostly desis/indians takes advantage of their situation and pay them less than minimum wages ) for sake of putting bread on dinner table for your family .\n\nPS : I am not discouraging anyone from seeking opportunity abroad but cautioning against using illegal means .Do it legally and live a life of dignity .

Most Indian are stereotyped in other countries and most people dont respect white hair people.

In my opinion Indians being rejected because many are involved in illegal activities. Better they stay home with respect and enjoy, India itself is a big country and extremely rich in culture, so better to explore their home first?
