    Rishi Sunak Uk New Prime Minister led UK govt pproves 3,000 visas for Indians per year under the new scheme

    The UK government led by Rishi Sunak has approved 3,000 visas for young Indian professionals to work in the country every year. Under the UK-India Young Professionals Scheme, the UK will offer 3,000 places to 18-30-year-old degree-holder Indian nationals to come to the UK to live and work for two years. 

    The UK Prime Minister’s Office tweeted, “Today the UK-India Young Professionals Scheme was confirmed, offering 3,000 places to 18-30-year-old degree-educated Indian nationals to come to the UK to live and work for up to two years.”

    The nature of this arrangement will be reciprocal. According to a statement from the UK Prime Minister’s Office, the UK has more links with India than any other country. India accounts for over a quarter of all international students in the UK, and Indian investment in the country supports nearly 95,000 jobs.

    According to UK Home Office figures, around 118,000 Indian students received a UK student visa in the fiscal year ending June 2022, representing an 89% increase over the previous year. In addition, the British government stated that it is enhancing its authority to deport immigration offenders.

    According to the British government’s statement, the UK has more links with India than virtually any other country in the Indo-Pacific area. “India accounts for nearly a quarter of all international students in the UK, and Indian investment in the UK supports 95,000 employment across the country,” it stated.

    It went on to say that the UK is presently negotiating a trade agreement with India, which, if reached, would be the first of its type between India and a European country. The trade agreement would build on the UK-India trading partnership, which is already worth £24 billion, according to the statement.

    The development comes after Prime Ministers Rishi Sunak and Narendra Modi met during the G20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia on Tuesday. This was their first meeting after Sunak assumed office in October. The UK is also negotiating a free trade agreement (FTA) with India, which is already worth 24 billion pounds.
