An Indian man named Rahul Mahajan shared on Instagram about the tough situation Indian students face in Europe.

They work about 80 hours a month but still struggle financially.
Some students come with loans and feel pressure to repay them while also dealing with expectations from back home.
Social media reactions were mixed, with some agreeing on the difficulties abroad and others pointing out the job scarcity in India.
