IIT Madras Director Kamakoti Veezhinathan Calls US H-1B Visa Fee Hike Blessing In Disguise For India

Описание: US President Donald Trump’s steep hike of H-1B visa fees from $10,000 to $100,000 has rattled global tech firms, but IIT Madras director Professor V Kamakoti sees it as a “blessing in disguise.” He argues that the move will retain India’s brightest minds, reduce the rush for US jobs, and boost India’s own research ecosystem. With only 5% of IIT-M graduates working abroad in recent years, Kamakoti says “the craze for going to the US is gone.” While Washington insists the fee curb is to prevent H-1B abuse, many believe India now has a golden opportunity to strengthen its domestic innovation and technology base.
