What is baffling is how can vijay and vaishali forget to take the visas? Just too incredible to believe ! Keeping the visas and passports in your wallet is the first thing we do before we board a flight. I have travelled to India many times. Each time the visa and passport is checked thoroughly at all airports in USA. I have travelled from Chicago, New Jersey and Dallas to India. So, what is beyond my understanding is how could the couple 'forget something like a visa of their children. However, my sympathies are with the couple and I can very well understand the 'agony' the entire family has undergone. Anyway, do take this as a bitter lesson and be careful in your future trips to India. Madhu.
