Britain’s Prime Minister Kir Stmper has denied any visa agreement with India. He said that visa will not be discussed during his visit to India. Talking to reporters, the stormer said that Britain’s recent free trade agreement (FTA) with India will be fully focused on trade and investment. The British PM will be on a tour of India on 8-9 October.
When asked about increasing visa access, he said that it is not part of the scheme. He further said that this journey is to take advantage of the free trade agreement, which we have already signed. The stormer said that businesses are benefiting from this agreement, not a visa issue. He insisted that the immigration policies of Britain will be strict.
Labor party getting a tough competition in Britain
Actually, this statement of the stormer also indicates domestic political pressures in Britain. His labor party is getting challenges from the Reform UK party. The British Prime Minister is taking careful steps on the issue of immigration, which has become the centerpiece after protests in Britain.
He insisted that Britain looks for top talent from all over the world, but there is no plan to open a new way for Indian technical professionals after US President Trump’s H-1B visa system was tightened.
‘Return agreement between the two countries’
Regarding exile and security cooperation, the stormer dismissed the concerns related to India and said that this is not an issue, because there is already a return agreement between the two countries. He said that we are considering whether there should be any connection between visa and return agreements.
The stormer further said that it is not just a piece of paper, it is a launchpad of development. He said that India is on the way to become the third largest economy in the world by 2028. The opportunities that exist in it are unique.
