dear sir, how inhuman is this to an indian, i am really ashamed i served for this country 20 years in indian air force which is a uniformed service. i heard about police gundaism but this is too much. the basic humanity the parents indian passport holders has to suffer. what kind of love this kids will have when they grow up towards india. we are forgetting one thing only us born can become president in us. what happens when this kids become politicians?. they are suspending each and every one i feel this officer needs to be diciplined in the harshest way, i donot even care if he can be terminated from service because he is doing disservice to the nation. i was really thinking high about mumbai police but iam wrong. shame for the mumbai police. sabastin, los angeles, ca ,usa
american parents and indian born children. and let us suppose they were coming to USA. question is whether USA immigration officials will allow these childrens to enter in their country. NOWAY.
You know the biggest problem with all us Indians is that we only believe in criticizing the system but doing nothing for the system. I m pretty sure that 99% of us would have done the same thing if we put ourselves in his shoes. And as for giving transit visa to the french national is a cooked up story. There is a criteria on which transit visa can be issued, immigration officer can't make his own rules to it.
TRANSIT VISA: A transit visa is granted for the sole purpose of enabling the holder to travel through India to reach his/her ultimate destination. Change of purpose is not allowed. The visa will ordinarily be valid for a single/double journey and for entry within three months of date of issue. The Transit visa is valid for direct transit only for a maximum period of 3 days. Confirmed airline ticket for onward journey and valid visa for final destination are required. For a stay in India beyond 3 days, an appropriate visa should be obtained.
When you travel with kids, the first and foremost thing is to take extra care of your travel plan. That too when a trip of that magnitude you better plan MUCH better.
I agree with the rude behaviour of the officials, you have to remember they have a job to do. Thats their job to be rude and strict, to cut down unwanted trouble.
Blame YOURSELF for failing to produce the REQUIRE documets, blame YOURSELF for not planning well, dont blame AirFrance for not checking the kids visas, blame YOUR self first for all the trouble caused to your kids, all YOU DID IT.
You blame the officials for doing their job? you played your KIDS card several times, and that race card... YOU BE RIGHT BEFORE YOU BLAME OTHERS.
I dont see anything wrong in subject matter, with so many cases happening daily of illegally folks crossing border even with young chaps, for me it becomes very much assertive behaviour of immigration officials. Such a pain now a days we are hearing about all this stuff.. not having a visa absoultely a bad stuff and should be detained from airport..
hey these guys ran away from India to get a US citizenship because of the chutiapa in India. Now when they face an instance of the chutiapa, why are they surprised?
This is shameful, the immigration should be fired...but then its India! no freakin Govt Official is fired, just transferred!, so in this case they should transfer the guy to police stations in Mumbai suburbs/slums....where his lucrative source of income is cut-off. But then again this leaches will find ways to rip off people in slums too!
This is not the only incident of of this kind. Every other day we hear such incidents the way people are being treated at different airports. I live in canada and know many indians who will swear by God not to visit India again after visiting once. One can come across this type of behaviour in every government office.
