Islamabad: The US is investigating the H-1B visa fraud that disproportionately benefits Indian nationals and American citizens are losing jobs.<\/p>\nIslamabad: The US is investigating the H-1B visa fraud that disproportionately benefits Indian nationals and American citizens are losing jobs.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, India\u2019s exploitative practices through technology firms are being exposed and public anger is growing.<\/p>\n
The US H-1B visa programme, which is designed to attract highly skilled foreign professionals, has been systematically exploited by Indian IT firms and executives. Currently, 71 percent of the total H-1B visa holders are Indians, which is much higher than any other nationality. Of these, only 11.7 percent are Chinese, 1.3 percent are Filipinos, 1.1 percent are Canadians, 1 percent are South Koreans, while Pakistan\u2019s share is less than 1 percent.<\/p>\n
This disproportionate representation highlights India\u2019s dominance in Silicon Valley, where Indian executives hold key positions at top tech firms such as Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Google, Meta, Tata Consultancy Services, Chase, JPMorgan, Walmart, Cognizant and Deloitte.<\/p>\n
The hiring of H-1B visa holders in place of American citizens has been investigated by US Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Dick Durbin (D). The probe focuses on hiring Indians in place of American citizens, wage processing, transparency in termination practices and visa fraud.<\/p>\n
Evidence suggests that Indian tech firms systematically favor Indian nationals over qualified American citizens, leading to unemployment and social unrest in the country. Cases such as Nanosemantics Inc. show that Indian firms exploit multiple filings, fake job offers and shell companies to manipulate the H-1B program.<\/p>\n
The US Department of Justice is taking legal action against Indian networks while imposing higher visa fees to curb abuse. President Trump\u2019s imposition of a $100,000 fee on H-1B visas reflects the anger of the American public over systematic Indian fraud and monopoly over tech jobs.<\/p>\n
Indians disproportionately occupy senior positions in tech companies, often replacing qualified Americans. This trend points to nepotism, favoritism, and India\u2019s systematic exploitation of the US employment system, which reinforces the public perception of India as prioritizing personal gain over ethical business practices.<\/p>\n
The investigations reflect the growing resentment of the American public. Indian dominance of the H-1B programme is no longer a minor economic issue but has become a political and social concern, damaging India\u2019s international reputation and straining India-US relations.<\/p>\n
This is a golden opportunity for Pakistan, which has no shortage of skilled workers. Pakistan\u2019s representation among H-1B visa holders is negligible at less than one percent. The current investigation of Indian firms provides Pakistan with an opportunity to highlight India\u2019s monopolistic practices, visa fraud, and unfair recruitment practices and advocate for fair opportunities for Pakistani professionals in US-based tech companies.<\/p>\n
India\u2019s exploitation of the H-1B visa program exposes its economic opportunism and global manipulative tendencies. The public and political backlash in the US is a clear indication of India\u2019s unethical practices abroad. Pakistan can leverage diplomatic, political, and information channels to expose India\u2019s monopolistic and fraudulent practices internationally.<\/p>\n
India\u2019s monopoly on H-1B visas, organized visa fraud, and occupation of top management positions in global tech firms demonstrate the exploitation and contempt for the welfare of the host country.<\/p>\n
The US investigation provides an important opening for Pakistan and other stakeholders to challenge India’s global reputation, demand equal opportunities, and hold India accountable for unfair practices abroad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
