A sharp debate is underway over the suspension of US visas for Indian applicants, with many arguing the backlash reflects how much the visas function as traded commodities rather than merit-based opportunities. One widely shared take claims the visa system has effectively been 'selling visas' for years and that talent claims are cover, fueling heated discussion about fraud, access and the value of migration pathways.
Why now: A major visa suspension affecting large numbers of Indian applicants has triggered intense online argument about the system's fairness and commercialization.
