US Views on India Shift Amid Immigration Policy Changes and Deportations
Recent surveys and reports highlight shifting perceptions and challenges faced by Indians in the US. A Pew Research Center survey shows a decline in positive views of India among Americans, especially Republicans, linked to policy changes like the increased H-1B visa fee under President Trump. Concurrently, US immigration enforcement has intensified, with over 4,800 Indian nationals deported since Trump's tenure began, including lawful residents facing removal due to residency disputes. These developments reflect evolving US immigration policies and their impact on the Indian community.
