WASHINGTON: Although Pakistan is not on the list of the United States President’s travel ban countries, 40 percent visas for its nationals have been cut down by America, while India will enjoy 28 percent increase in visas.
According to a British newspaper, a significant drop has been witnessed in the number of non-immigrant visas for Pakistanis after the executive order issued by US President Donald Trump regarding the foreigners.
