US President Donald Trump’s decision to impose $100,000 annual fee on H-1B visa will choke innovation in America, while benefitting Indian IT and tech firms, former G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant said on Saturday.
In a major setback for Indian tech professionals working in the United States and top tech companies, Trump has signed a proclamation to significantly curtail the H-1B visa programme.
“Donald Trump’s $100,000 H-1B fee will choke US innovation, and turbocharge India’s. By slamming the door on global talent, America pushes the next wave of labs, patents, innovation and startups to Bangalore and Hyderabad, Pune and Gurgaon,” Kant posted on X social media platform.
