Upset With UK’s Visa-policies, Modi Refuses to Sign Illegal-immigration MoU
After an existing MoU on illegal immigrants expired in 2014, both countries sought to ink a revised deal.
An MoU to facilitate return of illegal Indian immigrants from Britain was left unsigned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi since the European country didn’t ease visa policies.
UK Prime Minister Theresa May told Modi in 2017 that “UK would consider improvements to its visa offer” for Indians.
