Ongoing diplomatic tensions have led to a drastic cut in visa appointment slots for Bangladeshi nationals, with daily appointments dropping from over 7,000 to just 500-700, causing considerable distress.
Following political unrest in Bangladesh, Indian visa centers closed for security, leading to the indefinite suspension of services and the return of over 20,000 Bangladeshi passports.
India's visa processing remains focused on emergency and humanitarian applications due to strained relations, with a foreign ministry official highlighting that normal operations will resume as conditions stabilize.
Recent escalations in tensions revolve around border management issues, with both countries summoning each other's diplomats amid allegations of unilateral actions regarding border security.
