Too late!\nThe damage to Canada is done.\nHealth care destroyed.\nSkill-less newcomers\nIncredible financial benefits\nAbility to still live and work in yr home country.\nMulticulturalism failure.\nMultiple Passports.\nOne Passport only.\nBring skilled labour who actually speak English.\nI know people who use Canada as an Instant Teller and health care while still keeping a home in their home country.

Funny how I sat with a Canadian elderly person who looked me in the eye and told me how lazy Canadian youth are and crying that immigrants are getting their jobs when in reality it’s either they don’t have the actual qualification or do not want to work the job. As an employment coordinator, I have received so many Canadians under 35 years of age who want me to help them look for a job but then after all the effort I put in they just send a long message telling me they don’t think they are mentally ready or physically ready or if they are worthy or good enough hence the reason they just want to quit and not get a job anymore.

Great….more jobs for actual Canadian citizens and stop with the…”Canadians don’t want these jobs”!!! Pay the wages Canadians deserve!

Canada service is turned to a refugee registration center. People queue before the door is opened. It can not perform its actual role of bringing service closer to Canadian.

Wow, who would’ve thought we can actually protect our border. Too bad it took trump threatening our economy to actually do it

If only South Americans allowed to the country what about countries who actually need it like Chinese decedents or iranian or noth koreans, if borders mean nothing why does Germany open its borders to all africa and middle east ??? Dw is hypocritical

If Mexico actually decides to take care of it's people, why would they want to come to the USA? Mexico needs to step up, take care of their citizens and secure their southern border.

I don’t know about other countries, but here in America, the Democratic Party are actually using these ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS to gain Votes, especially in Democratic ran states like California. They created laws that Checking ID are not needed to Vote and claiming that checking Identification are somehow “ racist “. That’s how crazy it is. ??

Actually, a country should set barriers for it.

They knew this was coming. Sorry, doesn’t matter if it’s fair. It’s not fair you people were taken care of over actual citizens.

They think they are going to be able to do this without any opposition from those of us who live in the cities where our neighbors reside. I don't think anyone has thought through how this is actually going to play out.

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 ?

It's quite a sad thing but I'm actually glad I'm 48 not 18 \n\nI lived my England. It's gone now \n\nBut in the future you'll be over run. This is a long game military operation for the fall of Western Europe. Many people have been complicit in it

These people are disg**ting that they think they can just pour into our country illegally and they actually want to do that! My father came from a very tough life in India. He made sure to come over here legally, even though his situation was beyond dire. He’s a man of integrity, more people should have that kind of integrity. Do the right thing or others will force the right thing on you!!??

Canadians are actually white British or French who ruled India for 200 years. Now Indians will rule them

Wrong information with fake stats. More Indians are getting foreign visas. The whole world is actually jealous that we are the strongest superpower in the world. India should also restrict visa to foreigners.

This video talks about the problem without actually addressing the problem.

Actually indians should stop travelling to Europe as it is very costly and not cost bearable. The international airport s do not provide drinking water as it is provided at the Indian airport. They charge 4 to 5 Euros for a bottle of water, which we do not know before travel. We should travel to our friendly countries and avoid UK & european countries.

The Comments section have more Informative thoughts than the actual Video (⁠☞⁠ ⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠☞

Indians lie. They go to Canada in the pretext of being students , but they actually go there to work that too illegally.

I am a Canadian. Moved to Houston and lived there for eight years....there is nothing pleasant about living in the United States. Sorry but you guys fail even the basic courtesies of life. Was relieved to get back to Canada and get rid of my sidearms! Hospitals and clinics in the U.S. want proof of insurance or they can refuse to even look at you! In Canada no clinic or hospital can turn you away....and we have the Good Samartan law here...meaning you can't be sued for helping someone in an emegency. I actually knew a person in Houston who made her living suing people and companies just because it was easy money....try that here...lmao. To sum it up....living in Canada has the most appeal for me. Now, 2025, I would not even cross the border...too dangerous...trump tards everywhere and who knows when you will be on thier target list.

Indians are hypocrites. It costs an arm and a leg ($590) to be precise to get an indian visa from Nigeria and we are rejected alot. This amount is more than a schengen visa by more than half. Its crazy. I actually blame my fellow Nigerians that wanna travel there and i don't care for the reason. I rather go to Afghanistan that $hit-dia.\nYou guys are racist yet you mourn about racism.

India is not a superpower. GDP does not make power or greatness. Indians need to improve India at the grassroots level - cleanliness, industriousness, real development at the grassroots level, not growth of stock market. Actually India has not developed at all. People are happy to convert to Christianity and Islam and accept freebies. Ex-Hindus are happy to put down other Hindus without any loyalty to their ancestry.

This is actually a major issue that our nation has to seriously rethink about

The rest are suffering because of the ones who have abused the leverage in others’ land.\nDoes it make sense for an Indian store owner to steal toothbrush and be deported?\nThat owner is making money so why steal????\nPeople agree not to leave organisations they join but in less than 6 months join another one.\nGround reality!!!!!\nHence the actual potentials lose on visa as they’re assumed to be like the rest!

Can Modi supporters reply under my comment how this is another master stroke by Modiji or how this is actually is vision of Modiji, I am sure you have some conspiracy ready.

Modi was going to build economy so strong that usa citizen would be waiting in queue to visit india.\n\nWhat a joke, actually modi himself is a joke ?????\n\nIndia ke L lag gaye???

This video documents verbal/emotional abuse. Jesus wasn’t a Christian or a Jew, he was free. That’s what all the original fuss was about, before what he said was “organised” into a religion .. a belief system \n\nDitto Buddha .. he wasn’t a Buddhist or a Hindu (or whatever the possibly ossified system of belief was called at the time he lived ) he was free. \n\n“The truth will set you free” \n\nOrganised religion isn’t first hand mystical insight. It’s spirituality distorted into a political, population controlling parody. Look no further than the abuse scandals rife within the main Christian denomination (Further evidence for the hypocrisy .. every religion has sometime warring sects . Go figure) \n\nI repeat Jesus wasn’t a Christian or a Jew .. he was free.\nCosmic consciousness was an actuality to him … ditto Buddha, their message/pointers to “truth” .. are often violently distorted for religious/political/population control ends. \n\nMystic - Someone who experiences Universe as self .. and not conceptually but actually. Self .. is the point of view body mediated awareness, not to be confused with the ego .. our lifetime of conditioning which we identify with as “who we are”. Consciousness/awareness is our true nature. Free unbounded. \n\nTranscendence of the ego is part of the process of “enlightenment” prevalent in what’s known as “The perennial philosophy” \n\nPhilosophy - The love of truth/wisdom\n\nWhat is the main message relevant to the search for what is true and incorruptible in life. — “ BE A LIGHT TO ONESELF” ?

Indian are actually not liked by foreigners because of their short tempered

I hope Palki actually reads these comments.

Curious to know which type of visas are actually getting rejected and is the rejection a function of a higher population base.

Thanks for rejection. Person must stop in India for whatever the reason. Government will be forced to do something as unemployment will rise. These educated class can show actual mirror to Modi and government. India need them more than other nations.

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.

At the same time getting Indian visa is also not so easy. Ranking may also depend on number of tourists who want to visit. Indians these days in far reaching in numbers due to the middle class economic upliftment. It is not that India is equated with tiny unknown countries.\nNext as far as the visa rejections are concerned very few student visas and work visas are rejected. So educated lot are not rejected. Most of the rejected visas could be tourist visas, who want to go there in disguise of tourists who actually propose to go as domestic or business helpers. Of course the visa fee is high. That could be discouraging point for many who want to go for just earning and also a source of income for those governments to compensate wages to be paid to their white workers to handle umteen number of applications.

I've been to several embassies Western and other European Non Western embassies in India over the past 25 years and most of them don't allow Indian visa applicants inside the Embassy/Consulate. Some allow Indian visa applicants only at the entrance or only inside the gate not beyond. Others allow Indian visa applicants only at the gate and you hand your application and passport to the security. It depends on what kind of visa of course. If it's for tourism or a short term visa then you're not allowed inside. If it's long term then some embassies interview you so those embassies allow. But the embassies of those very countries in countries other than India are much more open and you can actually go inside the embassy and speak to consular officers etc. In India in most Western embassies and even some Non Western embassies you cannot do that unless you're applying for long term visa or immigration etc.

Actually every time I went to the UK, immigration thought I was Rishi Sunaks relative, and was impressed by my passport, just like Palki said in Oxford.

No actual data is not available the reason behind this application…. Is this migration or just visit? At least the % of both.

Noo They actually see if it's from North India and Rejection Is High ...\n\nThey'll see The Address if it says Tamilnadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andra , Telangana, Kerala They won't Directly Get rejected \n\nFew years later once North Indians figures out They'll Upgrade by Asking us to Speak in Tamil , kanada , Telegue , Malayalam \n\nFew years later once North Indian Figures this Out It's goona be hard for entire India to get visa\n\n\nAll Thanks to North Indians

Yes it’s time for equal request as you can see this ranking is nothing but strong arming us to keep us down. But if west and Europe and all others country if they want India’s working force then they need to give us visa free access and stop this bullshit raking and give India actual rank free of politics and hate. \n\nWe Indians are not growing to steal anything from anyone but taking our rightful place of being the oldest civilisation who take all with us in growing our self and others Vasudev Kutumbakm!

I actually love this indian talent should stay in India and contribute for our country. Someone will say well pay is not good here there are no jobs here yes but rich indians should open their own companies here and be the job creators and yes government also needs to pay initiatives to these rich people so that they invest in India.

well, you should concentrate more on Bangladesh and younus government rather focusing on your own problem. your attitude tells you are the strongest country in the world but in actual you are still a third world country struggling with poverty and unemployment. think what's gonna happen with so many enemy countries around you..!!

Idk why I'm feeling that she is not independent she is always defending government i have never actually seen be questioning govt about any issue , her english fooled us we thaught godi media can only be in local language

Indians should stay and make the country great instead of running around like a headless chickens. Of course the corrupt governments of the day makes thing worse. Until they follow half of china's way of governance, India will lose out on everything China do. Actually India had more scientists and clever people but all going in the wrong directions and objectives.

You need to explore the fraudulent ones too and not just blame other country's visa process which is the same for people from non-indian origins. The actual issue is much more complex. More foreign workers can destabilize and harm their own people's opportunities as well. May be we should explore why indians are trying to leave india so badly and address those problems first.

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.

If all of these a holes who go from India stop, because they follow a trend. Then people who actually wanna go because it's their dream, will have a chance.

Indians are notorious for overstaying their visas. The rejection rate is actually lower than I expected.

With all that bitterness and resentment how do you sleep at night. Or maybe you can do some actual work to better your country, to better your people, instead of ranting day in and out, that's not what journalism is about.

Actually it wasn’t India only, Uganda also faced the same,

she avoided mentioning the real reason.. (many visa seeking Indians are actually not out there to spend but running away to those nations from India, and the visa issuing countries have realised it). lots of illegal Indians currently living and working in all the mentioned countries are the main reason for the downgrade in the visa ranking.
