Canada Rejects 74% of Indian Student Visa Applications Amid Fraud Crackdown

Canada Rejects 74% of Indian Student Visa Applications Amid Fraud Crackdown

Imagine Canada is like a big school that used to welcome lots of students from India.

But now, Canada has put stricter rules for students wanting to come, like a new test they have to pass.

This means many Indian students who apply are not getting in, with about 3 out of every 4 applications being rejected.

This is much higher than before.

Canada is doing this because they found some fake papers, like fake invitation letters, and they want to make sure only genuine students come.

This has made Canada less of a favorite place for Indian students, and fewer are applying now.

Even though India used to send the most students, they now have the highest rejection rate.

Some Indian students are sad they can't go, but others are starting to think it's maybe a good thing they didn't come because it's harder to stay and work in Canada afterwards.
