H-1B obstacles and OPT hope: Indian students in the US struggle with evolving visa regulations
Students and professionals are eagerly awaiting President Donald Trump's next step as Indian residents' chances of finding employment abroad have drastically decreased due to the US's restrictive immigration laws. The new regulation has left many people, particularly those who are about to graduate, scurrying to reevaluate their plans and look for alternatives elsewhere in a country that accounts for the biggest number of H-1B visa holders worldwide.Chell Roberts, dean of the University of San Diego, described the announcement as "like a seismic shock." "Students, families, and businesses who have long seen the H-1B as a bridge to opportunity have had their dreams disrupted. "The recent increase in the H-1B cost and the planned changes to the lottery system have made it more difficult for Indian students studying in the United States to obtain a work visa. Notwithstanding these difficulties, the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program is still an essential means of obtaining job experience, even though new regulations may restrict chances in the future. Although some students think that concentrating on developing excellent academic and professional profiles is still the most effective approach, others are worried about employment prospects and career timetables.

Significant decline in Indian students studying overseas: first simultaneous decline in five years in Canada, the US, and the UK
According to an examination of the most recent visa data by The Indian Express, the number of Indian students traveling to international institutions has decreased concurrently for the first time in five years in the top three destination nations: Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom.According to the data, the number of Indian students obtaining study permits in these important locations fell by at least 25% in 2024. Permits fell from 2.78 lakh to 1.89 lakh in Canada, a 32% decrease, according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Between fiscal years 2023 and 2024, F1 visas in the US fell from 1,31,000 to 86,110, a 34% decline that was much more pronounced. According to UK Home Office data, sponsored student visas granted to Indians fell from 1,20,000 to 88,732, a 26% decrease in the UK.This decline coincides with tighter immigration laws in a number of nations, most notably Canada and the UK, which have instituted restrictions on dependent visas and caps on student enrollment, frequently in response to mounting worries about the strain on public services caused by large numbers of international students and housing shortages. Indian students are subject to a number of recent limitations imposed by Canada. These include declaring intentions to cut the proportion of temporary residents to 5% of the whole population by 2026 and terminating the expedited Student Direct Stream program. Canada implemented a cap on study permits in 2024, which caused a 35% decrease from the year before. For 2025, an additional 10% cut has been announced. The administration has defended these actions by claiming that rising numbers of overseas students put a strain on public resources like housing and healthcare.

India's foreign policy has always been governed by the ideas of multilateralism, strategic autonomy, and non-alignment. But in recent years, India has taken a more practical stance, striking a balance between its expanding alliance with the United States and its long-standing ties with Russia. With a focus on maintaining a free, open, and inclusive regional order, the Indo-Pacific area has become a key area of interest for India's foreign policy. India's dedication to thwarting Chinese influence while fostering economic and security cooperation is demonstrated by its active participation in organizations like the Quad, which is made up of the US, Japan, Australia, and India, as well as its interactions with ASEAN nations. In order to better represent current geopolitical realities, India is still pushing for reforms in international organizations like the UN.

IIT placement slump: Government data indicates that more than half of institutes have seen a 10% reduction from 2021–2022.
The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Education, Women, Children, Youth, and Sports was recently provided with IIT placement data for the previous four years by the union government. These are the institutions where placement rates have dropped the most.According to data given by the union government to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Education, Women, Children, Youth, and Sports, 22 out of the 23 IITs—aside from IIT (BHU) Varanasi—saw a decrease in placements in 2023–24 as compared to 2021–22.More than half of educational institutions saw a 10% decline in enrollment or other important measures between 2021–2022 and 2022–2023, according to government data. A more thorough explanation of what the data indicates is provided below: Decline in Enrollment: A decrease in school and college enrollments is mentioned in a number of sources; some attribute this to the removal of duplicate enrollments, inflated statistics, increased tuition fees, and a lack of financial help. Placements loss: A number of reports also point to a reduction in IIT placement rates, with IIT-Delhi reporting a notable 17 percentage point loss in placements. Funding Reduction: There is proof that several education programs, such as the one for minorities and madrasas, are receiving less money, with allocations being significantly cut. Contributing Factors to Decline: Rising tuition prices, a lack of financial help, job market competitiveness, and a bad reputation for the school are some potential causes of the fall. Particular Examples: From 174 crores in 2021–2022 to just 2 crores in 2024–2025, the education program for Madrasas and Minorities suffered a decrease in funding. Placements at IIT-Delhi fell from 89.88% in 2022–2023 to 72.81% in 2023–2024.
