Addressing the issues of Visa backlogs, and recalling President Joe Biden’s order to reduce the visa time for Indians, the Ambassador of the United States to India, Eric Garcetti has said that the challenge is heard “loud and clear” and added that he is proud of the work done in just one year to reduce the visa wait time by three quarters. He highlighted how at the same time, the US has “increased the number of visas with the same number of people by 60 per cent in a single year, so we are hearing that challenge loud and clear.”
