If India was having good leaders like they have in Malaysia, Singapore, Bruenei etc he would have had better treatment all this is because we have a leader like Narandera Modi and Amith Shah who has made India look shit

I am of Indian heritage and from what I am seeing around the world its disgusting how Indians are behaving, its made me ashamed of having that heritage and its not just in Canada, they are destroying the reputation for all Indians, and you can't just say its only a small percentage. I was born and raised in England in the 60's, we respected the culture, and country we were in, and would never see this kind of behavior that we are seeing today. Indians were known for being quiet, and respectful, and especially never loud like the way they are today, this blame I put on India itself for not maintaining its culture and respect around the world, this is shameful to see I don't blame other cultures for this mess, this is why Indians are being rejected around the world, its not a coincident.

This is for India not for Russian, Chines and other powerful nations

This Country is now India 2.0 ??

I wish India had a PM like this than a coward who smiles along group of foreigners laughing at him. \nWhenever any of the country threatened India, all of the elected representatives have stood strong and retaliated in past. Now representative is nothing more than a clown.

Immigration officer says no longer students from one country India. It is just a scam for pr and bring family. My coworkers sister in law has 3 degrees came here to bring husband to work here. Now taking a masters. Rich nepo babies buying their wat here. No sympathy from Canadians. India was has call center set up to scam seniors. We owe them nothing. Tbey act entitled brats no othe countries act this way. Only scammers from India

Look at it like this, there are over 1.4 billion Indians in India and growing, the US has 330 million and need immigration because it’s shrinking, tomorrow 300 million Indians could move to America and still have over a billion people, and double the size of America, so that’s an issue for any country, India is perfectly capable of beating the US and China, tons of smart people there, just put all of the effort from telephone scam centers into curing cancer for medical tourism, that’s big money, or nuclear fusion, unlimited clean energy, that’s big would make India the worlds number one superpower, but the reality, Asia, African, and Latin America are going to take over the world

These students can't complain about the student fee, Housing , food and living cost .\n\nU can blame trudue for lowering the standards for student visa. \n\nTo my knowledge from friends i know as students durring high-school vs students coming to study at college. \n\nPrior to this issue these a few mandatory requirements \n\n- parents most make over 200 k usd , and assets .\n\n- you must have xxx amount in usd dollars equivalent in your bank account and open a HSBC bank account with xxx amount \n\n - u must show you can afford for your child to stay at a mandatory homestay , all the associated cost staying and studying in canada for min 3 years \n\nJust passing the first 3 requirements, most ppl get rejected. \n\n- most leave the home stay due to culture differences and end up renting a 1 bed room condo. \nThat alone back in harper days was 20 k a year.\n\nMind you these students i met are from Vietnam, a 3rd world country where a university graduate with 2 degree will make only $500 usd which is consider a very good job . Its equivalent to5 k / month . \n\nSo thier dollar isn't worth much , for their parents to have that much money to send a 15 year old to study hs in a foreign country is a luxury only a selected few can dream of\n\nAlso none of them worked and work permit wasn't allowed. Even they were allow why would u when ur parents give u their debit card ~ visa card with allowance of 2- 3k to spend .\n\nInwould say 25% of these rich students go home within a year as they get home sick.\n\nToday standards\n\n- not many come as high school students as it's alot harder and still up hold strict standards as their still a minor. \n\n- college is easier route\nOnly have to prove u can afford the 1st. Year of study \n- a place to live\n- your parents can support you while ur here \n\nSo some one in India is faking the documents so they can come over strictly to work and pay for school and living cost. \n\nThis is why we have this problem. Even Vietnamese students doing this but alot work save all their money and go back home after their visa end. \n\nWhat ever they save in 3 years is like 10-20 years plus of saving working in Vietnam as these students are from.poor families barly getting by\n\nWith that being said, studying aboard is a luxury no matter what country ur from.\n\nImaginenthe cost of sending ur kids to the usa for school, most of will have to take. Out loans

I totally understand why a lot of Indians want to leave. Huge population, fierce competition etc so obviously folks want to escape. But the problem is locals in the western countries are being outcompeted for high skilled jobs. This is ON TOP of these jobs being MOVED to India. You cannot blame the locals who felt that they are being eaten from both ends. The anger is palpable and this is ONE of the reasons why you see populist candidates win elections. I only wish we have a massive abundance of high skilled jobs to go around so Indians can also achieve their aspirations and dreams wherever they go.

Who has no problems in life?, it does not mean that you will enter any country by wrong path, you will do anything to reach the great aspiration. A nationalist Indian never supports illegal immigrants, If we are troubled by Bangladeshi and Rohingya infiltrators then other countries will also feel the same. Illegal is illegal, no mercy should be shown to them. Now India got a golden opportunity to deport such illegal infiltrators. The country will not be able to say anything to the Champions of human rights, India should also deport illegal Bangladeshis & Rohingya infiltrators living in India in same process, then no one will be able to speak, the country which is the champion of human rights, country like USA, UK, Canada, Australia. Now this is an alarm bell for Bangladesh and Rohingya infiltrators liveing in india illegally.

It’s too late. This is now India 2.0. Whether people want to admit it or not we all know they get first pick at jobs and housing. They are nice people with good intentions, but there’s too many and it’s costing Canadians their happiness and livelihood.

India is a confused nation. 200 million Indian Muslims are told daily that they are not Indians, but invaders. \n\n The Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which effectively excludes Muslims from fast-tracked citizenship while favoring non-Muslim refugees. Many Muslims live in fear of being stripped of their citizenship under the guise of the National Register of Citizens (NRC), disproportionately impacting poor and marginalized Muslim communities. Vigilante violence, often under the pretext of “cow protection” or “love jihad,” has led to brutal lynchings and attacks on Muslim individuals with little to no accountability. Muslims are frequently accused of being foreign invaders, their loyalty to India questioned despite centuries of deep-rooted presence in the land. This persecution runs counter to India’s constitutional secularism and democratic principles, exposing a dangerous shift towards religious majoritarianism rather than the pluralistic, inclusive democracy it claims to uphold.

Despite being the 5th largest economy, India still faces significant challenges in wealth distribution and visa compliance. While economic strength is a factor in visa approvals, it is not the only consideration. One major issue is visa misuse and overstaying. With a population of 1.4 billion, even if 10% were to overstay in foreign countries, that would be 140 million people—almost half the population of the United States. This creates serious concerns for immigration systems worldwide, leading to strict visa vetting processes for Indian applicants.\nFurthermore, while India’s economy is large, the majority of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few. A high GDP does not necessarily mean the average citizen enjoys financial security. Many people seek better opportunities abroad, sometimes through illegal means, which further justifies the need for stringent immigration policies.\nAnother issue that affects how Indians are perceived abroad is the behavior of some tourists. While not all are at fault, a growing number of incidents involving disrespectful behavior, disregard for local laws, and unruly conduct have led to Indian tourists gaining a negative reputation in some countries, including Nepal. This has made them among the least desired tourists in certain regions.\nUltimately, visas are not just about how much money a country has. Factors like overstays, illegal migration risks, and tourist behavior all play a role in shaping immigration policies. Respect and reputation are earned, not entitled. If you want to be welcomed and respected abroad, it’s essential to create a positive impression through responsible actions and cultural sensitivity.

History is always favourable to the immigrants. Be it N&S America, India or anywhere in this world only difference is timeline. Australia was the dumping ground of the white criminals. India absorbed 40 million Bangladeshis, 10 million Nepalis much more bigger population than canada. Make yourself fitter for survival, learn to live within means but thrive for better. Whining is not the answer.

The government of India should find ways to use the human resources locally. There has been a widespread anti-Indian sentiment in the West and in Australia. Behavior and cleanliness are a big issues when it comes to Indians. The government must treat all its citizens equally and make them to love the country and work for uplifting the nation. Hindutva is not good for the future of this wonderful nation. Let's wake up!

I fully understand and agree with why countries deny Indians visas. Indians do not follows rules, we behave inappropriately, we think that other countries also have the lawless and 'chalta hai' attitude that is prevalent in India. And lets not even talk about GDP. All Indians must remember this by-heart. India's rank in terms of per capita GDP is 140. Yes, just saying India's GDP is 3rd or 5th doesnt present the real picture. Per capita GDP is the better representation of the 'quality' of the citizens of a country. So let's be very clear about this

India is the traitor to the developing countries. India doesn't get respect because India keep bootlicking their former white colonial powers . How stxpid is that? Do you realise how low people look at you for doing that? \n?? You choose to impress the US government, the biggest bully of developing countries. Not intellignt at all. You choose to support Israel, a country created by the colonial power that raped your country poor. What's wrong with all of you ? Why do you hate China so much ? This sudden hate of China started after the closer relationship to the US and Israel. Well Israel and the US government doesn't even respect your leader. In fact, they don't like dark skin people. They only wants you as slaves

Indian from the state of Punjab gets most of the visas (30% are illeterate ) and the real students in the rest of india have to keep waiting. You keep saying Indians, meaning all of India and this is not so . Hello..

This is very bad deportation by america.not good.has no any respect to India.

Thought india always back up and support US and israel. Is this their way of saying thank u to india?

As a Indian who faces same problem here in India aswell..... For all the US people, this protest is organized by our Opposition as they do not have any other issue to oppose. Illegal means crime, results in punishment. (I mean atleast the comeback flight was free.)

The lesson we have learnt from us indians join togather come back to indian lets make our country a heaven indian should change india 1000 டைம்ஸ் better place then us india is god built heaven in this world need some changes in attitude of people and political changes india is number one \n\nSame thing happened in burma, in malayasia ect \n\nAny were you go india for indians dont forget

EVEN DEVIL NEVER FO LIKE THIS ,INNOCENT CITIZENS OF INDIA ??WENT FOR EMPLOYMENT BECAUSE NO JOBS IN INDIA NO FREE EDUCATION IN INDIA UNEMPLOYMENT AND POVERTY OF FAMILIES IN INDIA TO SAVE THE FAMILIES FOR SURVIVAL DID GOOD SERVICE IN USA DURING COVID PANDEMIC PAID INCOME TAX NOW BRANDED ILEAGAL IMMIGRANCE HIGHLY CRIMINAL BY TRUMP .COMMON WORKERS TREATED LIKE CRIMINALS ENTIRE WORKERS AS LABOUR'S ALL OVER THE WORLD MUST STRIKE AND SUPPORT ALL FALSE ALIGATION DEPORTATION. ALMIGHTY GOD PUNISHMENT IS SURE.

Because my country is sh*t so it is other countries’ responsibility to take care of us. However, India is the best country in the world. \nDoes anyone understand this logic?

Send them back but treat them as humans not slaves India your mad if you still want to go to USA....this is how your classmate is treated ...why ? because he she was hungry to feed their families to find jobs they went to USA....this is how India is treated mukesh and Nita ambani ......this is your brother and sister wake up you dam India....stop trade with usa

We have way too many here it's creating resentment. It'd be like living in India but literally every place you went all u see is white ppl speaking English and not respecting Indians culture. After years of seeing your quality of life and services decline you'd get upset too. If u had kids that can't even find a summer job because they're all taken by foreigners or can't find an apartment to live in then that's where problems start. Imagine getting hurt but your wait to see a doctor is 12 hours because 100 east Indians are there at the ER slowing things down because they can't even speak our language. Poor Canadians are now fighting with Indians at food banks it's gotten so bad. We just have too many, if you're reading this in Indian please dont come to Canada

In a foreign country we should abide by their rules and regulations and live. Otherwise this will happen. How can India support those who break laws ? It is wrong to expect like that.

They deserve to be sent back, but not like in this inhuman way. It is one of the longest flights of the world, from the USA to India, it is inhuman to torture them like this.

Boycott and uninstall Facebook,Twitter, Instagram and all American companies in india.We are boosting then,and they are puncturing us.This is not good.As Indian I feel very depressed on this incident occurred.Why we go America,we should make India above America.

This is a complete disgrace! India, a nation with a history of resilience and struggle, is once again humiliating its own people to appease external powers. The British ruled us for centuries because we betrayed our own, and now history repeats itself—except this time, it's not the British, it's our own so-called leadership bowing down.\n\nWe are not criminals like the U.S., invading countries for selfish gains. We are not as bold as Israel, standing firm against the world to protect its people. Instead, we are spineless when it comes to defending our own dignity. Handcuffing an Indian citizen and sending them on a military plane like a terrorist—what kind of message does this send to the world? That India is weak? That we are puppets willing to humiliate our own just to satisfy some foreign pressure?\n\nIt is shameful that even after 75+ years of independence, we still act like a colony, treating our own worse than enemies. If our leaders had even a fraction of self-respect, they would never allow such a disgraceful display. This is not just about one person—it is about the dignity of our entire nation!

This is a big insult to India. Yes they're illegal migrants but keeping them handcuffed and shackled like criminals with no food for the entire journey of 41 hours is unjust and inhuman. There was a four-year old child among them who was also treated like this. As Indians we should condemn US for this instead of lauding them.

I believe India is better off in ASIA. It's humiliating to see Indians treated in this manner ! India answered the call to fight with IDF in Gaza: killing Palestinian but end of day, indian were targeted ? Karma is real !!

Beautiful! As a legal immigrant from india, this is nice to see

The Real CNN is covering this news but The Fake CNN (CNN News 18) in INDIA ?? which has a Tie-Up With Narendra Modi's Billionaire Friend Mukesh Ambani is Doing Hindu-Muslin Politics 24*7. ?

There are so many illegals Indians here. . They have taken all the jobs. ., In Brampton nobody else can get work. . They are also very rude and racist. . Lots of them are criminals. . It’s time for Canada to start deporting illegals . These Indians act as if this is India. .They don’t behave as if they are immigrants. . Enough.

Who gives ? \nGet em out \n\nI'm noticing that there are some folks doing some serious whining about the Trump administration. So I thought I'd post some thoughts. \n\n1. Accept the fact that this is the leadership that we (the majority of) working, middle class Americans wanted. We are pulling the economic weight in this country and we are tired of pulling the weight of those that do not contribute.\n\n2. If you haven't already, get a job. Every business in the country is hiring. And you get paid for the work you do. And the harder you work and the more you learn, the faster you will advance, and the more you will earn. It's an amazing concept.\n\n3. Understand that if you are a U.S. Citizen, or have already started the legal process to become a U.S. Citizen that you are not going to get deported! I don't care what your favorite liberal media channel says.\n\n4. Tariffs are a bargaining chip. When you are in business you make deals, and sometimes you have to play hardball. That's how you get the deals you desire.\n\n5. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects you from discrimination by age, sex, race, etc. DEI openly violates this. Democrats want you to believe the opposite is true because they value your vote more than your quality of life.\n\n6. It's not the government's money, it's your money. You absolutely should give a damn about how it is spent.\n\n7. We are not the World Bank. If other countries need help they should raise their own finances. I don't recall receiving any hurricane relief money from India or China.\n\n8. Drill baby, drill. Want to know why? Because we have it. Are electric cars the future? Not in their current form. There is way more oil in the ground than lithium, and guess where most of that is? China. Want food prices to come down? Then energy costs have to come down. And that means oil, gas, coal, and nuclear. Unicorn farts and liberal tears won't power your car!\n\n9. The economy and the security of the country are far more important than your feelings, get over it.\n\n10. There are men and there are women. Simple as that.\n\n11. Education is to establish a learning core that prepares a child for the real, working world. Anything else is wrong.\n\n12. Donald J. Trump is the President of the United States and he won by a landslide — both the popular vote and the electorial vote. Get over it.

Trump dgas. His job is to head ‘em up, and move ‘em out. I thought was crystal clear in Nov. As long as we ain’t roughing them up, idc how we get them out of here. They’re supposed to be mostly all criminals first anyway. They’re probably all in jail in India now. \nAnd if you live in a world where you welcome this invasion, then Fed aid may be a problem obtaining.

Nothing wrong with it. This is a standard procedure to avoid any mid air adventurism by criminal elements who might be among the deportees. The stupid opposition parties in India are just making noises. Just because they treat illegals from Bangladesh and Myamnmar as vote bank doesnt mean others will treat them as same. \nMost of these illegals are from Punjab and Haryana who come from big farming families (agricultural incomes arent taxed in India, no matter how much you earn).\n\nThey spend millions to pay smugglers to enter US and Canada illegally through South America or Mexico.

Crazy \nHow the MEDIA insights HATE... An ILLEGAL is an ILLEGAL, not just in this county but all countries... Why are the Indians not burning their own flag, India treats their citizens like Shit and the Whole World KNOWS THAT ! ! ! In India you are either rich or destitute...??? That is why the Indian Government is still friendly with President Trump

They're NOT INDIANS and don't believe that this flight is going to india! I noticed that most of the news contents in Firstposts are FAKE NEWS! I hope they're not one of those media like Politico and others that were included in payrolls by the corrupt Dem politicians thru the newly BUSTED USAID!

They choose the wrong way so they deserve it.\nI am an Indian who love to follow the rules. But yes this is not anymore diplomatic way. Now it will be turning to be a political agenda not only in usa and india but also global.\nMy personal opinion over illegal immigrants is just deport them.

All your reasonings for Indian not getting visas are invalid or self serving for your Indian middle class Angrezi viewers. \n\nIndia, as U say, in the aggregate is indeed rising. But Indians — both padh and unpadh — have NOT risen and are NOR rising in tandem with India’s rise. \n\nWe see it all the time in places where Indians live in large numbers as in New Jersey, Atlanta, Chicago, the Bay Area… …\n\nMany Indians, even techies with all kinds of information on their finger tips when they sit in front of their computer screens, are unprepared on the local culture, ethos and traditions and history, just because thay have a loooong list buddies and relatives in their e-Rolodex on the day they land here. Their lack of curiosity in the local land is astounding. \n\nSecondly, getting rejected for visa is routine in many countries. They don’t haveto give you ANY reason why they reject your visa, no matter how well placed or well connected you are in India. \n\nIn my own case, I graduated from UC Berkeley, a premier internationally known school with in engineering with a PhD in 1984. Decades ago. \n\nMy education at Berkeley was ENTIRELY on scholarships and fellowships and fee waivers. \n\nMy family was not the so-called urban middle class living in 1, 2, and 3 BHK flats in urban India., or of land lords or of mid level bureaucrats, or judges or in the Indian corporate babudom . \n\nWe were from what is called in the US as working class. In India the terminology would be more offensive, “lower class.” \n\nFor my graduation, I applied for my mother’s visa (my mother, who became a widow at 39, raised us under great difficulties with a meager pension of INR 350. She had not gone to school beyond 5th grade and she had no ancestral property, not even a red brick in her ancestral home. \n\nMy mother’s visitor visa was rejected and to this day — I am in my 70s now — it hurts me that she was not present when I received my PhD at Berkeley, one of the top-rated int’l universities. They rejected her visitor visa probably because she had nothing to show as her assets in her application. \n\nBut later. with me getting a job here as a research engineer in a large corporation, my mother visited the US five times. \n\nNot only that, even my older brother and sister in law got a ten-year multiple entry visitor visa when the came for my daughters wedding. \n\nThe point I am trying to make to your mostly upper middle class internationally well connected viewers is that visas are ALWAYS a privilege, never a right, no matter how well placed and well connected in your home country. And how well versed you are in Angrezi and how good you are in your Angrezi accent, partly British and partly Amreeki. \n\nKollengode S Venkataraman.

Such a humiliating experience. Not every country is like India to tolerate nonsense. Why in the first place does someone enter a country that too like the USA without proper paperwork? \nAnd why is it this a news story? USA should have claimed charges from the modi government.

This is the real picture how america treats india.

Those in India still studying colonial ckassroom education and think US is like Hollywood, get a reality check. Slave trade looked like this and entire Western civilization was built on slaves and colonialism.

Every student who comes to USA for M.S. graduate studenfrom India pay only 1semister fee to colleges but they apply for 2 year tuition in Indian banks \n\nWhat is happening is colleges collect 1 semester fee and after 1st semester.\n\n students work part time at restaurants, gas stations, Motels grocery stoes. Mostly at non chain stores. \n\nLegally they are suppose to work on campus but they work off campus and earn and then pay for college. And some send to India they their friends illegally.\n\nThey travel up to 50 miles around to work. \n\nThese students work for cash and work for $7 to $8 per hour or even less.\n\nStore proprietors / owners tell these students if anyone comes for raid they will tell that they are working on voluntary basis and taking salary. So like this millions of students work illegally.\n\nAfter student comes out of college during OPT and stem OPTA they continue to work and approach consulting companies to generate payroll / trainee for no r a son just to give them status. \n\nDuring OPT these employers collect money to pay taxes and generate payroll and keep them to put them to work and maintain their status.\n\nThis does not stop here.\nH1-B workers who come from India on lottery 80% do not have clent jobs but they use back door and show that they have jobs and continue to pay taxes to show on paper that they are still working with a hope that they get jobs in future. And do part time work at restaurants, grocery store etc..\n\nStudents also stay in apartments in groups of 5 to 6 in 2 bed room unit and share and save money actual apartment lease is on only 2 people remaining people stay illegal.\n\nLandlord cooperation is there. \n\nthis situation is causing so much trouble to American citizens. Most Americans do not get a job even if they get paid low wages due to these unauthorized workers.\n\nCreate a department to report every local illegal student workers or H1-Bs or OPTs to ICE and disqualify them and cancel their visas.

Did they bomb or terrorise to have chains like slaves or criminals ? I have been to India Switzerland and Russia twice but would think twice to visit or relocate to worst countries in the world both noted for invading colonizing slaughtering plundering. Stealing land from native American and others and making their own yet doing this it Is America or the BRITISH one and the same people

It sickens me how these India people start a store and tax free for 5 years , then after 5 years is up they can pass the store to another family member for 5 more years tax free . This is taking advantage of America as well

This is the best lesson to learn for Indians.awake india send ilegal immigrants to neighbours countries. Already here over population.

This is a false video please verify before you uplode anything in the name of my country India . This are people of South American country not Indian. They where treated like these not Indian remove it how dare you spreading false news
