Letter to UK Foreign Secretary in relation to Indian Visa Policy
In this letter, The Equal Rights Trust (ERT) urges the UK Foreign Secretary to raise concerns with the Government of India with regards to India's visa and immigration policy, which discriminates against UK citizens of Pakistani origin. ERT’s letter refers to guidance on application processing time provided on the Indian High Commission’s visa application website for the United Kingdom. The guidance indicates that processing time for UK citizens of Pakistani origin is a minimum of 7-8 weeks, compared to a suggested minimum processing time of 5-7 days for all other UK citizens.
