As Indian living abroad..please don't send more Indians abroad. They really spoil our reputation and image.

There’s more pride and nationalism projected in this video than real facts. Why do Indians need visas? It’s very simple: Most Indians are more likely to figure out a way to stay abroad once they touchdown abroad. \n\nAmericans, Canadians, Europeans, etc, don’t need visas wherever they go because most of them always return to their countries eventually no matter where they visit and how long they’re away. \n\nCitizens who don’t need visas wherever they go hardly ever leave their own countries for another. It’s really very simple. Just look at Singapore, Switzerland, etc. How often do you see their citizens leave such countries for another? Almost never. That’s why.\n\nIt sounds like she’s trying to make an argument that this rule shouldn’t apply to Indians because India’s economy is powerful. You need to convince this fact to the Indians who are leaving India, because if you can’t even sell this point to those Indians leaving India, then you don’t even have a case.

Madam Palki Sharma, this must be taken up with our Honourable PM and External Minister Affairs who hold very good dialogue with many countries. This is really the urge of times. India being at 85th in the ranking is something really a questionable while India remains in the top five economies of the world. As you highlighted few nations who are ahead of ranking from that of India. It is really a high burden on our Government to take up this matter and India's ranking should not be beyond 30.

I worked for SNC Lavalin for a few years and in 2022 I visited Canada after the pandemic. I really felt like I had arrived in a poor country.

Well I was offended about the pot thing. As a Canadian I did NOT know that America's Marijuana comes from us. I thought it came from South America. \nIs it the legalization thing? Those stores didn't really last up here though. No real market for it. But it did make those preppy rich kids stick out like a sore thumb...\nAnd the foreigners certainly pushed those rich white kids RIGHT out of the marketplace. They're all jobless now....with the rest of us who lost their jobs during COVID or the Russian and Israel wars....when those foreigners wanted our jobs. Now we're on permanent no more Nice Canadian Anti-Migration revolt. ITs the tamest world conflict ever. Where are you from? Don't care. We can't discriminate. That would be RACIST. So its No to all.\n\nTotally true about Bieber though. I remember having a conversation with a friend saying 'they can keep him'.

Just stop ur Nationalist jingo and look inward, you just paint as if India really does not have any problems, our passport ranking is based on robust diplomatic relations, economic stability, and active participation in international agreements, just because we are 5 largest economy it does not mean we are doing good..be true in your journalism and stop being part of the Godi media !!!

A lot of Indians treat white people really badly. Especially when there is money involved. It’s now extremely common that people here hate dealing with Indians as customers of their business and will go as far as avoid it altogether. They will often relentlessly try to negotiate services, lie and say anything to get get their way, pester businesses until they cave to their demands and even leave bad reviews which they say they will change if you give them a good deal. None of this is the way things are done in Canada and that needs to be respected. Something kind of funny, I’ve heard many people say that Indians will often say they will refer tons of friends and family to a business if you give them an unreasonable discount (which they never do once they’ve gotten what they want), but what they don’t realize is that referring a bunch more Indians to them is the last thing that business wants. And really, some of the discounts they want on things are just ridiculous. When I was selling my car a few years ago, I had it listed for $55,000 and I got bombarded by Indians offering $20,000-$25,000 and every lie under the sun of why that’s all it was worth, other people are saying yes to offers like that for the same car, dealerships are selling them for that much and so on. Like come on. And I guess while I’m at it, I hate to say but it’s a common thing here to walk into a gas station and the smell of body odour just hits you like a brick. I’ve stopped going to 3 different stations because of it. I’m sure there’s some pungent white people out there but damn. This is on a whole other level. It literally fills the entire building.

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

Really want to leave Canada now. It isn't the country I've lived in all my life. It is going to get much worse now the Alt right are here. Hoping I can leave before Pierre gets in.

Hi Clara, i really want to go to abroad for working.. but is there any unskills job?

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.

Awe! You really think you have some place just because! Reality check, u r not. If the world relies on Indian talent the same talent should be used in India. Crying all the time.

Really? You have to ask? Have you seen what Indians all over the world have been up to? The World is fed up….We had enough…

Seriously, being a traveller myself there is no place equal to India in this whole world. The lords even chose India for their avatars and here we are taking pride in visiting these places abroad which looks really a ghostly beauty devoid of divinity. I just wish every Indian should stop visiting other countries for sight seeing

Really good , indians need to learn to behave both within india and overseas

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.

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.

Ethics and civil behavior is needed in India itself. If people travelling in planes with a bit of money start to think they can get away with any kind of sh** then sorry but this is bound to happen.\n\nI saw behavior of some while travelling to Malaysia how some of them were just demanding business class upgrades because they had a child. Another who just sat in one seat thinking he can get away with it and gets into an argument with the stewardess. Pathetic behaviour really. It is sad we did not invest much either in our families own and in schools to correct this. We should learn how to behave in public by the Japanese. They are the gold standard.

Stop acting like you don’t know Ms Sharma, visas for Indians are rejected mainly because when you apply for a tourist visa, most of the time you are not really visiting that country. You have plans to settle there. Many people do go to these countries as tourists but they know very well who seems like a tourist and who doesn’t.

As usual she really has no clue western countries are at there limits with immigration housing crisis all over the place indians are high risk of staying illegally in decent countries

And our govt who loves to haunt middle class with high tax says India's image has improved since Modi's non restricted visits around the globe. If we have become vishwa gurus, why are these countries humiliating an Indian citizen and why there is no value to Indian passport. The PM should talk less and work more. And to be fair Indians have no manners and discipline and can throw garbae and plastics on roads and violate rules hence cannot blame other nation. Here too it is failure of India which has not given priority to education and discipline. These rogues who throw garbage on roads and violate rules must be punished heavily. But populism of govt and useless and dangerous opposition is really hitting India hard.

I really hope these rejection news is real and support H1-b freeze, we indian Americans unable to find job in IT due to over saturation. Mainly due to telugu people by the support of agency create fake resume, fake experience and even agency help them with attending phone interview. Thus legit Citizens unable to find work

For Indians, there are 2 key reasons. I travel so much and live away, so I can say this- 1. The growing jealousy on India and the fact most western countries do not want Indians. China is doing it behind the back wherever they can. The second and equally important is the our behavior and arrogance as Indians when we travel and when we stay abroad. We really irritate and upset people around us.

You really wonder why? Residents hate what their countries become

Most Indians who request tourist visas are not REALLY tourists!!

There is always a positive aspect behind every seemingly negative event. In my opinion it will help India in the very long run. India is making all the right moves and is on the ascension. India really need not worry about anything at all.

he would go on war with other person, if the same happened with him in India. I really don't understand this useless struggle in the name of better life.

Really I'm Sorry about your situations as it seems a lot of peoples whom like you. I Believe when the beautiful hidden arrangements of destiny which is always surprising the clean people like you. That is why ? US President Mr. Trump has rise the right decision at right the time to involving Canada under the USA authority as new American State for rehabilitation the miserable situations available at the Canadian Nation which shocking me personally. As long as I'm was always dreaming to continue my higher educations at Canadine Academies due to the positive feedback of the educational system at Canada ? considered as one of the best in World. But It doesn't reflect to the Canadian nation as it should be. Once More sorry again and I hope US government expediting something to emerging Canada under it's Wings as this step should be done since old time back ago.

American's are not well liked around the world. I have been to a few countries and when I'm asked if I'm American, I tell them I'm Canadian. Their attitudes change toward me immediately. Until then, they don't really give much respect or treat me very well. This is very unfortunate and says a lot about American's.

Is this recent? This cannot be recent I refuse to believe this really happened on Sunday.

Native American here, and I feel strange\nliving in my land with all these immigrants\nwhether they are white Europeans, Indians,\nArabs, Hispanics, Asians, blacks, etc. \nIt really feels weird!

its actually really sad because these indian people are good people but theyre being used as pawns by the world economic forum...\nwhy is it that theyre best bet in life is to flee their cultural homeland?

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.

People behave so, arrogantly towards others it's really crazy ?

Just stop letting anyone in to Canada that is coming as a student from\nIndia simple. Any they understand they are not citizens in this country you came to study , once your studies are over you leave . There true intentions was never to leave put to get permanent residence. Way are they protesting in Canada go to India and protest to all those fake agents that gave you fake study permits to come\nTo Canada they knew what they were doing they never complained when they gave money to those Indian immigration consultants. When they came as students ?? leave enough already. Canada owes them nothing. Trudeau has really messed up big time

Trudeau really ? are you a racist?

if a country really is at its end, it will start to import indians. and i don't mean sioux.

They are violating there visa they should be kicked out it’s crazy how they all move to Brampton…. There are other places you know they are international students you are supposed to come to study then. Leave . Most people that come to study in Canada from different countries they leave after graduation. You can even check the m number of people from different countries that leave and most do only people from\nIndia so leave . Canada is not all that great it’s good most of the time high taxes . . They abused the food bank system . We need less immigration that’s what this is basically a back door into the country most of them don’t really study anything worth studying. Canada has a shortage of doctors and most don’t even study MD?‍♀️. These noun credited colleges make so much money from these students. It’s a big fat business .

There are many skilled immigrants here - yet they are not considered for job opportunities other than lower-level jobs. It’s quite tough, and one must be really patient.

Even in india.., i am\n seeing crime rate rising so much and we are feeling unsafe living in last 6 to 8 years....\n\nSomething really bad and drastic happening to indians recently

If you really believe in a free Palastine, you should go there and help fight for their freedom.\n\nHopefully, you choose to go to Palatine and help the people there.

It is NOT about racism, nor culture.\n\nIndians act like invaders. How?\n\nWhen a team, especially in software, has an Indian manager, the team turns 90% Indian in about two years. Indians recommend only OTHER INDIANS to their teams, they promote them endlessly. They support each other at work and refuse helping others.\n\nI am not lying. This I observed personally. I am really hating this about Indian culture.

DEPORTING US CITIZENS HAHHAHA GOTTA LOVE IT. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A CRIMINAL AS A PRESIDENT AS MEXICAN CITIZEN I REALLY BELIVE TRUMP IS THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD ON FOUR YEARS YOULL SEE WHY.

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?

This is crazy, the so called immigrants came , do your dirty job you don't want to do! Work hard, pay higher fees for education, contribute in so many ways, then they have to leave? When Canada and the US go to other countries do what they do! Do they really leave? The hypocrisy!! The nerve! It's crazy

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!!

DID they really leave Canada???

Idk what’s going on in China, sometimes Xi has a ton of generals and people around him. Next he’s sitting at a desk representing China all by himself. You hear half the people at the last appearance are now MIA and “somewhere in China” or the CCP ignores the question about people. Then Xi is with another group of men. \n\nI’m not sure if they’re being considered incompetent, if there are coups plans boiling under the surface and so Xi gets rid of everyone, if Xi is just paranoid, it’s definitely strange and I don’t think anyone knows what’s going on. They just call it “corruption”. The PLA leadership is like a rotating cast and the CCP officials around Xi come and go.\n\nThe CCP calls everything they do “rooting out corruption” because they can see the Chinese people are getting really sick of having to bribe officials and still being harassed anyway, the entire Chinese government and military are corrupt lol corruption is the name of the game in China. So is it for show? Or are there burgeoning factions who are sick of Xi? Would explain the heightened security.\n\nIdk very strange things are happening there and it seems like Xi is barely holding onto power sometimes.

TBH I'm getting really tired of being the few at work who speaks English. The Indian Coworkers keep send Customers to me. Cause their English is so very bad. I Don't even work in Many of those Departments! I Don't know the Answers!\n\nManager: Grab a Coworker who can translate.\n......HOW THIS TRANSLATOR DOSEN'T UNDERSTAND ME EITHER!!

You know what is weird about the America first argument? It pits Americans against immigrants, implying that immigrants are the reason that Americans do not have the support they should have. When really, the party that won off of the anti-immigrant rhetoric is the one stripping all the social programs and support away from working class Americans, and cutting taxes for the richest of the rich.
