Can OCI Card Holders Be BANNED from Entering India in 2025?

Описание: #indiansinus #indiaimmigration

Description
Indians abroad holding OCI cards—can you really be stopped at the Indian airport in 2025? Shocking but true. As per a June 2025 Ministry of Home Affairs clarification, Indian-origin travelers with OCI status can now be denied entry at ports like Delhi, Mumbai, or Chennai if flagged under “adverse information.”

This is a serious wake-up call for Indians living in the U.S., UK, Canada, UAE, or anywhere abroad. We break down who’s at risk, how this affects your travel plans, and what kind of legal issues or intelligence reports could get you flagged. Whether you're on a family visit, OCI renewal, or traveling for medical emergencies—this change could affect you or your loved ones.

We’ve created this episode specially for Indian diaspora families who thought OCI meant open access to India forever. Sadly, that’s not the full truth anymore. Watch now to protect yourself and stay ahead of this policy shift.
