She’s talking nonsense. What global economy she’s talking about, see what tourists do in their own state of Goa. Garbage everywhere, no mannerism do you think other countries don’t notice this ? Do you think other countries will want that to happen to their countries?? She’s saying go to Srilanka, why not ?? It’s the same like india. Garbage everywhere.

As an Indian living abroad I can say we don't have a very good reputation outside India, we are considered stinky bastards! which is not far from the truth.

And people here say that Modi Made India famous on World stage?????

This is the reality of India, I will get many replies, but it's a fact that she was lucky.,otherwise, the first thing they say to drop mobile, as she's been asked later. Indians are worse in performing their duties. Do you think this would be the first time with this embassy guy? This is the first time he got caught. They get the job everything gets changed they become masters. That's the reality of Indians

Well if you tell this data to common public, they will say you are antinational or hinduphobic. Welcome to new India ?

Well, there are good Indians and scammers Indian. Scammers in India are causing headaches for good Indians. That is the facts. For instance, recently some Indians took a huge loan in UAE and left for Canada with that money. That has put the UAE government in a position to make the visa process more difficult to find out if bad people are getting the visa or not. I would say, the Indian government should introduce a process to thoroughly investigate a person before they apply for a foreign visa, and it should be honest to see some improvement in Indian behavior in the foreign countries. If not, that number is just going to go down. It doesn’t matter how much you scream. Do that for the sake of good Indian people.

As an Indian living abroad I can say we don't have a very good reputation outside India

It's well deserved the way some try to get in with fraud docs and wrong way...But should not be rejected, right Palki ? // cause duniya mein ab GODI and Andh Bhakt need to work harder // I thought India is already a VC ishwaguru and our danka is on top right Palki?? // and where is that sycophant Akshay Kumar who say at immigration they jostle to handle indian passports and in his words Aw Aw you are from Modis India, where is this aw aw crow sounding with a rubbish accent now hiding.????

Why does not she say that it's our behavior that is causing this, all arrogant indian around the world has created a very bad picture of India, this includes Paalki as well. I though she was a new reporter didn't know she was a fake one.!!

The reason is that some Indian finds it difficult to integrates.\n\n I know one Indian lady that have lived in one country for over 20 years and the lady cannot speak the language of that country. What a shame! \n\nSecondly, many of them like to dominate or discriminate against other people. It has been alleged that some Indian people discriminate against others in many places they work. For instance! Where their people are in charge in Canada, they will not offer jobs to none Indian. They preferred to give the job to an illegal immigrants from india than to give it to someone else who has complete paper work. \nThe video is on YouTube. \n\nIllegal immigrants from India protest boldly in Canada asking government to give them papers but reserve is the case in India. If an illegal immigrants is found anywhere in India, the name of that person is sorry. Too many foreigners are in India prisons for minor offence or immigration matters. I can go on and and on. \n\nVisa rejection is not a bad thing!!! Everyone must protest his or her own. \n \n\nIf it is possible, everyone should stay in their own country. No movement. Do business with your own people. No international business!!! \n\nOur ancestors survived without others, therefore we can survive too. \n\nI know many people will not like this comment but it is an opinion. \n\nI still like India but will not live there. Good luck to them. \n\n\nIn my view their ascent contributes to numerous visa denials. Let's say 10% . Then 30% is forgery. It has been alleged that some of them do too many documents forgery to get to Canada or whereever they wish to travel.\n Then \n10% is women maltreatment. (stories of rape etc). \n\n Finally, india is very big, they need to use their population as a tool for development. They have all it takes to be like China. 100%\n\nWake up Indian government. Look after your citizens or divide the damn country. It is too big. ?

Didn't Palki Sharma, this very lady go to the Oxford debate to say how great the Indian passport is and how we are praised because of it?... what happened now? What happened to India is great under Modi?

I am sorry I am not able to understand the paradox. Less than an year ago you mentioned, in Oxford, that based upon your ‘personal yet unquantifiable’ experience at the UK border sic ‘where Indians were flaunting their passport and NONE of them in the self doubt of past century. the Immigration officer was a fan of India’? \n\nThen, your personal anecdotal account at an International stage doesn’t represent a tiny bit of reality. In most of the Schengen country we are called a ‘third world’ at immigration and always looked with a doubt. You dont have to travel these countries to get beyond your personal experience but just have a look at the queue at the US embassy in Delhi, and the way one is treated, you would have had your data. \n\nAnd now, in this video you say that a similar Immigration officer is denying visa to Indians. \n\nWhat changed in 8months?

Palli, do some basic research, call educated indians in Canada/US/AUS to get their feedback. They will say: \n\nYes, countries should REJECT, and only select highgly -qualified and work-experience proven people. Reject people that sjow money (black money from cheating indian-tax). If they already have job-offer guaranteed for 1 year, or got M.S with scholarship, -- allow.\n\nIf indians shit in public beaches, they can't even follow western rules -- FOCUS ON TRAINING INDIANS IN INDIA. Rather than threatening other nations to give visa.

Palkhi as much as I like watching your news your views here need to address real issues. I am a proud Indian who has lived in the UK for over 50 years. However I have to say whilst there are a lot of highly skilled Indian immigrants on work visas who contribute immensely to this country. however we now have a huge community of Indians those who have come over on illegal documents or on holiday visas and then never go back. They end up working in menial jobs or not working at all and perhaps this is an issue India needs to address. Sadly these immigrants will never be an economically contributing asset to this country or any other country and I am not surprised that the visa rate rejection is so high.

Why do you want to come to other countries in the first place yall always say india is superpower

People coming from some of the states in India such as Haryana, Gujrat, Punjab should be banned or scrutinized from traveling abroad, their only purpose to travel is to put refugee in other country and stay in other country illegally. There are many people who don't have proper documentation and also have fake documents, these people affects other genuine people who want to travel. Also the young people who just studied their intermediate or 12th class should also be banned from travel from the above mentioned states to travel abroad for studies. Moreover, People from these states don't know their manners in other country and don't know how to live or stay as per the culture of other country and fail to follow the basic manners and rules. I hate to say it but this is the truth.

Only the Indian news media and govt says India is rising in power, rest of the world still consider India a third world country. Another thing is when I was in school I had a subject called civic sense, where we were taught about how to behave in public, don't know if that is taught still, if that is not there make it a compulsory subject teach kids from childhood how to behave in public.

canada,They are taking money for visa processing,medical,documetation(including ielts exam) ,money transfer to their country banks as financial backups (they say GIC),college tuition in their currency,after submitting I have to wait for long time,\nfinally refused for silly reasons like i can't return to your home country(India).in the end I lose more money as you said .and also transaction fees adds up when we ask tuition fess back.if they reject for silly reasons, now I understand ,why this happening ,its all business and they want us to lose more money.innocent people lose money .

Palki in UK was saying that by looking at her India passport Immigration officer was amazed haha

It's a stupid report, obviously the visa rejection will be high if the visa applications are high from a most populated country in the world it's basic common sense , i would say India have the highest visa grant these days, I'm from India came to Australia it's not ecen harf if u have the right documents and if you're not faking anything, I'm pretty sure the rejections are mostly because of fake documents especially from Punjab and Haryana so it's good that they are not letting fake people i mean then what's the point of doing all this right way? People like me who try to come in a right way

India is the scam capital of the world sorry to say

VISA fee is open mafia. India should say if visa is rejected, 50% or more refund should come because rejections are becoming really arbitrary.

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

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.

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.

When you have smashed your manufacturing, you won't have money, if you won't have money, people will be running to other countries like crazy, It's unusual immigration which is hated anywhere even if you tell.them with broad smile that we are the Vishhvguru they gonna hate you. With 100 billion business losses with China It's no joke Palki. You also say that Indian development is sustenable but china's isn't. Many people like you smartly play with words. China's development is clearly visible but it's not sustenable but india development is slipping in every index and it's sustenable! Amazing

Do Indians higenic in their own country and abroad?\nDo South Indians welcome north indians in their states ?\nThe one who goes abroad for study do small part time jobs, will they do the same thing in India ?\nAlmost 50% of Indian students study on subsidies which is a tax payers money, do they wish to contribute back by working in India?\n\nIf answer to all these is NO why would any other country will welcome you ? Is it government' false ?\n\nIf we are saying Indian middle class is growing in numbers then how could a bad economy policy will grow this numbers, If the polocies are so bad number of poor people would have raised in numbers

India is 1.4 billion strong. If a European country gives Indians easier access on visa, we will flood that country. You already have Dunkis thronging in droves, illegally entering US and Canada. This has nothing to do with nationalism or some second-class treatment by other nations. This is simply the logistical reality. India's passport ranking will never improve. And the way Indians behave in other countries, I would say this rejection rate is more than justified.

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.

Ask yourself the question why? Simply because Indian nationals don’t want to return and help their native India. And with the influx of mass migration worldwide into Western countries they say proof of return. Isn’t India or Modi responsible for this? Give students jobs. Period. Namaste.

Did Palki say India is the world 5th largest economy? In competition, you get gold, silver, or bronze. There is no 5th place.

Why indians want to immigrate wen u say india is a syper power?

Palki, I'm a huge admirer of your journalism. Being a proud Indian and living in NZ from a decade I can say it's not just the equality.\nThe amount of frauds we do in our visa application just to enter a foreign land, I can speak on behalf of NZ, makes it difficult for the next batch of applications coming from that region.\nI won't label that with racism because every country has the right to protect its borders. NZ, Aus in particular has a strong and proud Indian diaspora with more and more Indians successfully coming in every year. But we India as a large population has one of the most number of applications which also increases the chancesl of rejection.

Hi\nCan you let us know how many indians with tourist visa travel outside India and Never come back to india\nThis is the reason \nYou say India is best but sorry to say India is polluted \nSmells\nDictatorship \nCorrupt politicians \nMost government, police,civil servants workers take bribery .\nIf you open the doors for Indians to leave India then more than two thirds of Indians will leave today. \nDoesn't this tell you something\nYou can tell or impress others that you and india is good. \nEveryone knows the truth

the root cause is illegal immigration and the root cause of illegal immigration is inflation, either people needs to be paid more on par with western countries or the cost of living must reduce to the point, people think working in India is far better to make money. \n5th economy you say but sadly it doesnt translate to the 90% people of this country, At this point even if India is world number economy still 90% of the will struggle to meet their ends. So when the per capita income increase the passport power will also increase. There solution to the problem.

I usually agree with everything you say, in this case it’s sadly illegal immigrants and abuse of visas. Come as a tourist or hidden in a truck, work as a take away driver. \n\nMany Indians say dual citizenship leads to dual loyalty, if U.K. or USA open up their country to India. Except the 5% of the rich 95% will emigrate for economic reasons.\n\nOnly solution is for India to grow exponentially with our per capita income rivalling that of the west.

My dear if you know the percentage of visa rejection African countries and some countries are facing every year will stop crying when all this Western country's American benefiting from this country's to not just India i agree with u the government of this country have to say no To the rejection

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.

Economic leverage? - and she told our talent! So she’s saying we need more unemployment in india? ?

Sorry as a British born Indian I must say this when Indians from the motherland come it pushes down the salary we natives get as big companies pay Indians from India less than natives. It is a massive problem for us local people??????? I am a proud Indian but I am also a proud Brit from my lovely west country, 80s born. We have too much illegal and legal immigration and it is a problem for us natives.

Wondering where are those who say Modi magic took India to the top of the world!? 85th Rank is still a great feat of achievement!

This is an excellent video, and you are clearly a very respectful and decent person. Thank you for posting it. I only hope you will keep my comment posted here once I write it. I've written similar comments elsewhere that were automatically deleted by the person who posted the video, and I found that disheartening. I first want to address the rumour about human feces and dirty diapers being found on Canadian beaches, and I want to stand up for the people who called out Indians for doing this. Somebody saw something. Maybe they weren't able to produce any legal proof of it, but they clearly saw something, and there is nothing racist about them calling out this behaviour. This practice is not only unhygienic. It is ILLEGAL in Canada; so, it absolutely should be called out publicly to prevent it from ever happening again. I have seen many videos about the culture of mass open defection in India. The videos I saw were posted by Indians themselves. One of those videos was a TEDx talk done by a woman named Sangita Vyas who discussed the truth about open defecation and that it is not limited to only the poor population. Even people who can afford to build latrines are not using them, and she explains why after interviewing Indians to ask why. I've watched Indian doctors talk online about how many Indian children die from something as simple as diarrhea every year as a direct result of the water contamination caused by open defecation. So, clearly, open defecation is legal in India, and perhaps some of these people think if it's legal at home then it must also be legal elsewhere. WRONG. It's illegal in Canada. It's unhygienic. It should never happen. Period. And there is NOTHING racist about a Canadian saying this out loud and reminding people that they must follow the rules and laws of the country they are in.

I don't care what anyone says, but Indian people, particularly (Punjabs) don't like to mixed with other cultures at all. They don't integrate with the Canadian lifestyle. They don't worked very hard, they are rude, they have no respect for other nationalities, racist as fuck, and the list goes on. I have been living in Canada for 34 years and I have never once felt isolated. Now, I feel like Canada has become India. I'm sorry, Trudeau have turned this Canada into a 3rd world Country. I missed Canadians! I don't have an issue with immigrants at all; as I am an immigrant myself from the Carribean. However, I have always respected Canadian culture and their laws. I'm sorry, India is the number one hated Country on the planet as we speak. England, Australia, & many other countries are not allowing Indian students to enter anymore. The proof is in the pudding! They are just bringing all their bad habits wherever they go. So it's not only Canada that's fed up, there are lots of Countries that cannot stand their attitude and erratic behavior. They have very low standards if you ask me.\n\nI can't wait for the day to see Canadians working the fast food &service industry again. No offense, but I rather be served by Canadians than Indians. I don't have to put up with their rudeness lack of communication skills. We all have have our opinions, but facts and numbers don't lie. Deport! Deport! Deport! I am also fed up with what they have done to this once, beautiful Country! Thank you Mr. Trudeau! The number one hated person in Canada and the worse Prime Minister is the history of Canadian politics! Indeed sad and depressing to say the least!

I would say this would result in Indias population decreaasing, LOL, but NO chance of that. Breeding and migrating are what India specilize in. Travelling the globe trying to make every western country more like the filth and overcrowding they ran away from; more like Mumbai. Races that breed are just obsessed with breeding no matter the suffering it causes.

IF YOU WENT BACK TO INDIA AND SAW ONLY WHITE, BLACK, CHINESE OR ANY OTHER RACE IN YOUR HOME TOWN OR CITY YOU WOULD SAY GET THESE PEOPLE OUT OF MY COUNTRY!

As an American and also a half Indian myself, I hear this guy . I have friends in Canada and they complain to me about the same thing. One of the things is that Indians refuse Canadians job positions because they are not Indian. How can u Indians refuse someone a job in their own country? And another thing. Changing Canadian culture just like he said. . Canada has a right to their own culture. U people cannot do that. U live in Canada not India. India has its own culture as well . Sadly to say u Indians brought the racism upon ourselves.

These are east Indians coming from the UK. They had US visas from the UK. What is Canada to do when they are in transit passengers from the UK and given fake or real but seems fake US visas. All international intransit passengers dont go through customs at their stop over country. Its an international fact. The East indians knew that if they boarded their flight to the US they would get sent back to the UK and hence India so they decided to illegally cross our border. Canada could not have prevented this. But now that we know this is what they need to do , we along with the Americans should step up our security. They could be terrorists. For decades we lived with a non secure border now foreigners are fuc**ng with our safety. India take some responsibility. You boast on the world stage and scold others, well what do you have to say now. Canada and America should tax India for the time and resources they have had to use since Moody says India is the 5th largest economy and they have money. Please if you want to come do it legally.

Im from india and had visited canada from my work for a month. I honestly felt how many indians acted in Toronto. They acted unruly, shouting in streets, throwing garbage. Truly sorry to say ilbuy ill day this, prior i felt african heritage inmagrants i expected to do this, but it opened my eyes. They behave correctly in public places, integrate with local culture. Im so sorry africa. Boy my own countrymen were disgusting

My aunt's family migrated from india to Canada in 2007 and even they say canadas healthcare is bad. Btw my aunt is a doctor

Hindutva always say their country is so great all Indians from everywhere should be sent back to India being such a great country.
