"I repeat, India has weak ...": Rahul Gandhi Revisits 2017 tweet while Trump slaps steep rise on H-1B Visa fee

Opposition leader (run) in Lok Sabha and Congressional Leader Rahul Gandhi revived his eight-year-old tweet on the H-1B visa just as US President Donald Trump slapped a sharp rise against H-1B Visa fee, which would probably affect Indian workers more. The eruption comes following Donald Trump’s new presidential proclamation entitled “Limit on the entry of certain non-immigrant workers”, which imposes an annual fee of USD 100,000 on H-1B visa applications. The measure, which is effective from September 21, aims to combat what the administration calls widespread abuse of the H-1B program, especially by outsourcing firms accused of displacing US workers and suppressing wages. Rahul Gandhi responded to the H-1B Visa fee increase and attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said: “I repeat, India has a poor prime minister.” He also tweeted his 2017 post where he questioned the Prime Minister for failing to take on the H1B visa issue with Donald Trump who was in his first term as president at the time. His sentiments were also repeated by the senior leader of Congress, Pawan Khera, who said it was warned by RahaHi in 2017. He also said that Donald Trump “insulted” India, but the prime minister, he said, “keep quiet”. “This is not a new development. On July 5, 2017, Rahul Gandhi tweeted the Premier Modi and warned that it would happen and do something. But he was a poor prime minister at the time and even today. You have the result today … crores of the youth of this country are going to face a loss … That the US is deliberately aggressive with India. “The US is systematically turning on the screws on India. What happened to the H-1B visa is no coincidence at all. If you look at it in context, the premature ceasefire by the US is on the appointment of the Pakistan, consequently the delinquency and the feting of the Pakistani army in the White House, followed by the 50% rates contracted by the US and even the US, and even the US and even the US and even the US, the US Sud-Pakystan tacit support and blessing from the US. “He continued,” In a very systematic way, for reasons that are inexplicable and understandable, the US is deliberately warning to India and it is not good for the relations in India. “Just a month ago, Donald Trump imposed 50% rates on Indian imports to combat India’s trade with Russia.
