'New UK immigration rules will impede brain drain from India'

'New UK immigration rules will impede brain drain from India'


NEW DELHI: As India voiced its concern over new visa rules with visiting British Prime Minister Theresa May, noted Indian origin solicitor in the UK Sarosh Zaiwalla feels the new British immigration rules will ensure that fine Indian brains, after qualifying in UK universities, will return to India to contribute to make India great.

Zaiwalla, who is Founder and Senior Partner of Zaiwalla & Co., told IANS in an email: "On any platform of bilateral dialogue with the UK, India has always raised its concerns with the immigration norms." The issue, he said, was of utmost importance to India and the country has been repeatedly citing the near 50 per cent drop in UK university admissions in its arguments.

"However, it would be in India's best interest to avoid further brain drain of young intelligent minds out of India. In fact the new British immigration rules will ensure that fine Indian brains, after qualifying in British universities will return to India to contribute to make India great."
