Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
@putnanja^^^. What is also lost in this heated debate over collars is that the actions of these TVU 'students' are going to make it that much more difficult for the next batch of legitimate Indian students. They are going to get extra scrutiny by visa officials and that is going to set off another round of chest-beating as processing takes that much longer.
Meanwhile, Juliet Wur, 'Public Relations Disaster Officer' should be asked to wear a collar over her mouth.
Anyway, this is still the India-US Strategic News and Discussion thread right? Perhaps we should get back on topic.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Lalmohan-saar, I thought original question was about a blonde bombshell But regarding your example, we are talking about two different classes of perps. Step a few decades back to see where all these measures come from:
There used to be rail robber baron types and there used to be outlaw types who used to rob these rail robber baron's trains. At least those outlaws that are not yet in the robber baron's payroll. When these outlaws are caught (mainly by private or public militia, sometimes called Pinkertons or US Cavalry), they are put in chains and a great show is made of "rule of law" by hanging. Those bankers are these outlaws, who dared to rob the current bunch of robber baron types.
These students on the other hand are those shivering masses that used to be "held" in Ellis Island for de-licing, deportation et al. It does not matter which state of India they come from, if they were in Staten Island, they are back at Mumbai. Looks like things have changed only marginally for some classes of people.
Mexicans, tribute to them, raised a simple question - "You made us sign NAFTA and I lost my farm. Now where is my plate of beans?". That the brainiacs behind NAFTA are the same maniacs behind the Minuteman Project makes the picture even more stark.
On illegal immigration, all sorts of shills have howled about how they are overrunning US' medical system, social infra et al. But if you are preaching the world the virtues of liberty and free markets, you cannot be a police state at the same time, that tracks people with technology nor punish them for a flaw in their system. That ToI article has so many holes. Eg: "questionable visas"? I thought at US Immigration desk at port-of-entry have an uber system that can pull up to see if the visa is granted to the right guy or not and have some hologram checker et al? If an average supermarket in hicktown USA can give you a purchase return, based on pulling up a past transaction, WTF?
If they are so scared of these Indians disappearing suddenly, they should fix their own system wherein these people are denied a visa in India itself or a fake visa is caught at port-of-entry. What about an entity calling itself a University in public, being allowed to operate so long? Can anyone in US call themselves a university, without any auditing or regulatory processes? That lady at the consulate did not clarify these aspects of their own system failures and instead tried to tell us that Lindsay Lohan is the new Messiah.
These are Indians and I would raise my shield and form a phalanx instantly, if they are fallen. There is no one else in the world who would do that for them, but us.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Well, the GoI will retaliate to this. Unfortunately it will be done to NRIs, PIOs, and tourists who will be hassled when they come to India out of genuine interests and concerns for it's people, culture, faith and business.
Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
@hnair^^^: "That ToI article has so many holes. Eg: "questionable visas"? Just for record, I checked what that meant. Apparently, it refers to expired visas and/or to F1 visas that are being used as 'substitutes' for H1B.
@Mort Walker^^^. Too true about retaliation. A small 'mistake' on the visa (valid for entry but 2 days short of the two months hiatus) resulted in one Indian couple on a Continental flight being re-boarded on the same plane back to Newark. They were coming to attend the husband's mother's cremation. They had been in India after seeing her in end November-early December 2010.
Coincidence maybe and I hope so. Talk about self goals. Anyway. Apologies to all for OT, no more on this subject from me.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Boss, your lack of scale and relativism is amazing. Can the H&D takleef, shall we? Collar is more humane than incarceration - that's all I said. G-Bay is your fantastical H&D khujli response.Ajatshatru wrote:GuruPrabhu, in the previous page, wrote:Perhaps anything less than Guantánamo Bay detainment may be a humane option in your eyes?Now this "inhumane" nonsense. The radio-collar is actually the *humane* option. I know cause I have worn one.
Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
The students did not have noble intentions,it seems.But then massa land has consular offices in Hyderabad and Chennai.It is their fault.
But they have exploited a loop hole in the system.They have not violated any laws,because they were acting as per the sham university requirements.The fault primarily lies with the sham university and the USG.
IT is a clear violation of human rights.If they dissappear in the US,bad luck.After all the US f&*((# lecture us day and night on pluralism,human rights for jehadis and ejs.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
svenkat-ji, I am somewhat surprised at your clarity in assigning violations. My own view is that: a) the facts are murky at best and b) the students could not have possibly be so clueless as to not know that they were indulging in "shortcuts" (as some have characterized the choice).svenkat wrote:IT is a clear violation of human rights.
The analogies are not so direct. Installing a radio-collar on the US Ambassador, as Phillip-ji graciously suggested, may be a fine option for some. The Guantanamo Bay reference above is another fine option.
However, is BRF so hungry for extremist views? Can we not view this calmly? Is wearing a radio-collar such an irritant to the national psyche? Come on folks, a sense of proportion, please?
Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
No, you cannot assume guilt before they are proven to be guilty, so putting collar around these students IS a voilation of human rights. As far as "shortcuts" are concerned, that is definitely a grey area in this case.GuruPrabhu wrote:svenkat-ji, I am somewhat surprised at your clarity in assigning violations.

Its just a matter of which grey areas one wishes to exploit. Technically, by the book, student visa is given based on the understanding that the student will return back to his/her country upon completion of studies. So this basically implies that all those people who have settled and working in US legally after studying there are in one way or another violating the terms of their original student visa.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Dhiman-ji, I stand before you as unworthy of legal knowledge that you may possess. However, my understanding is that the "collar" is a substitute for "bail". Now, bail does not imply guilt, only suspicion of guilt. So, please explain the "voilation". Regards.Dhiman wrote:No, you cannot assume guilt before they are proven to be guilty, so putting collar around these students IS a voilation of human rights.
Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
GuruPrabhu -- the moron US woman in Hyderabad said that the collars do not mean guilt or association with crime, merely US procedure and it was very hip since even US celebs wore them. Probably she had only dealt with Indians like you till that time and hence expected her words to mean a lot.
Unfortunately no one found the joke funny, Arnab asked her to wear it if she found it so nice.
So even the US govt is not saying that there is a violation of law by the students. Still they can do this because GOTUS fears that they may become illegal citizens.
If you start behaving barbarically because of your paranoia and fused mind, you need to see a psychologist, not be lauded for your far sightedness.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
But, I have a tiny little question. Why don't these students just go home? Have they asked for that option and been turned down? I ask with great trepidation lest the intellectual giants come down on me with a ton of bricks. Has Arnab MahaPurush examined this possibility? After all, why would decent Indian students want to sully their soul in the land of the great Satan?
Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
F1 to H1 transition is always done by going out of the country. So they get out of country after F1 and enter with new contract and stamp of H1.Dhiman wrote: Its just a matter of which grey areas one wishes to exploit.

It is very rare for Indians not go for H1 stamp.

Yes he has, and the discussion is on his web site. If only people actually took the time to inform themselvesI ask with great trepidation lest the intellectual giants come down on me with a ton of bricks. Has Arnab MahaPurush examined this possibility?
Because Indians are entitled to all the resources of the world as any one else is. They can and should do all they can to increase their footprint globally, while batting for Indian intrests.After all, why would decent Indian students want to sully their soul in the land of the great Satan?

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
If the students felt they were cheated ( never mind that they were working on east coast and not attending classes regularly in the college), they can always file a suit against the college and get back their money and additional compensation too.

It is about both, a state letting its citizens cheat others outside their boundary and then harassing the poor victims is about both money and human rights.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
You are most welcome! You see the kids out there paid as customers to receive a skill enhancement and all the associated "fully legal" immigrational benefits with it. Just because the sponsoring agency turned out to be a scam is no reason to tag people like cattle, who came on legal basis and that too after paying through their noses.

It appears that only around 18 students have the ankle monitor, not all 1500 students.

But knowledgeable sources acknowledge that none of the students ever complained about the university run from a single room with just "13 laptops and five desktops" for over 1500 engineering students on its rolls! There is not a single page on its website that doesn't have spelling and grammatical errors. Yet not only did the students, 90 percent of them from India, mostly from Andhra Pradesh, joined it in droves, but also got to transfers to it from other universities.

The Director of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) has spoken to Indian Ambassador Meera Shankar and the embassy has also taken up the matter of ankle monitors that some 18 students have been forced to wear with the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security.

But except for a "small number" of students who are under investigation, the choice before other duped students is essentially to get admission in another recognised institution or accept voluntary deportation and apply afresh for a student visa through a real school.

In US, you can sue the people behind the university if the students thought they were cheated out of good education. You can sue the board members in civil court, and if they win the case, the assets of the board members can be seized.
Apparently, a ramshackle building with 50 computers for 1500 students didn't raise any red flag among these "students" who paid to "get a good education" and then after entering US preferred to work full time instead of studying?

India does not put shackles on even ILLEGAL immigrants or put them in jail. Merely intern them in camps (usually better than their prior chawls) and send them back by train.
And no facts are being ignored, it is clear that the students chose a sub-optimal college to study, because they wanted a route into US.
However that does not make
1) Their actions illegal

Sure they broke the law, because the Univ they came through did not do its job, why is it the students fault?
If a person makes a donation to a charity which sens money to JuD when they ask for money in US under humanitarian grounds and a different name. Is it the responsibility of the Govt to fix the charity or the donor?
You a clearly not listening, you assume that the Univ is hanging around to pay the students. Clearly this is a illegitimate fly by night Univ which will fly away, who is going to pay the students.In US, you can sue the people behind the university if the students thought they were cheated out of good education. You can sue the board members in civil court, and if they win the case, the assets of the board members can be seized.
Well there are no laws against idiocy as far as I know, because that would actually put shackles on a lot of people on the forum itself.

Fear is the key - check uni credentials correctly and do not violate visa conditions.Sanku wrote:Sure you can, as long as the US does not get its act together as a responsible state, people will be quite willing to que up.
Thank you for making my point about state using Barbarism and Terror as instruments instead of civilized recourse.
I say they should all be put in G' Bay, that will teach them niggers, yes sir.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Saar, I take issue with this extremist statement. You are being extremely insensitive. Your choice of words is not in keeping with the agreed upon norms of decent behavior. Please apologize to these decent human beings for calling them the N word. Thank you.Sanku wrote: I say they should all be put in G' Bay, that will teach them niggers, yes sir.

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
Totally wrong example. In your case of charity, it is the charity fooling you. In case of this university, one look at the university after landing in US, a serious student would have complained right away.Sanku wrote:And did the Univ let them to do so? A Univ registered in US?putnanja wrote: Granting of visa doesn't mean that one is free to indulge in illegal behavior. The US student visa clearly states that students cannot work more than 20 hours per week. Why were students working on east coast full time instead of attending classes?
Sure they broke the law, because the Univ they came through did not do its job, why is it the students fault?
If a person makes a donation to a charity which sens money to JuD when they ask for money in US under humanitarian grounds and a different name. Is it the responsibility of the Govt to fix the charity or the donor?
However, your justification is interesting. Thanks for letting me know that. If I know an action is illegal and l still do it if someone lets me do it, I won't be responsible for it. So if I sell my company's secrets, knowing fully well it is not legal as per my employment terms, I can still get away using this logic as the company gave me access to their secrets.
Clearly, you didn't understand my argument. The director of the university, the chinese lady is still around, and so are the others behind the university. If the students really want to sue them, they sure can.Sanku wrote:You a clearly not listening, you assume that the Univ is hanging around to pay the students. Clearly this is a illegitimate fly by night Univ which will fly away, who is going to pay the students.Ravi wrote: In US, you can sue the people behind the university if the students thought they were cheated out of good education. You can sue the board members in civil court, and if they win the case, the assets of the board members can be seized.
Oh! You pay thousands of dollars to a university to get a good education, and you land up and see a single room university, and you are not outraged?? Is it the student was idiot or was it because he never came there to study anyway? No serious student worth his salt would have stayed back if he was there only for education.Sanku wrote:Well there are no laws against idiocy as far as I know, because that would actually put shackles on a lot of people on the forum itself. However the states job and responsibility does not depend on the intelligence level of the people.Ravi wrote: Apparently, a ramshackle building with 50 computers for 1500 students didn't raise any red flag among these "students" who paid to "get a good education" and then after entering US preferred to work full time instead of studying?

Re: India-US Strategic News and Discussion
For those wondering about the university, these are the pictures of the university, the first is external photo, and the 2nd is it's office. The university runs out of a converted condominium.
