India role is important due to its nearly four hundred year history of trade with the UK, has now mammoth English-speaking population and already has close ties as a result of emigration and educational placements. India's role in UN security council after its induction G 20 is seen as EU congenial partner to play its role in International diplomatic relation with Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Myanmar likely to figure on wide spectrum of diplomacy.

Parliamentarian accompanying the Prime Minister is Jo Johnson, the Conservative MP for Orpington, who has said the UK is restricting access for Indian entrepreneurs right at a time when we should be competing strongly to attract them.

On question, Visa stringent caps by Nksagar High Commissioner said the British government
making all efforts to keep check on the rightful tourist from India and of total tourist fifteen percent UK tourist visited India last year. Further added that research in science education and business trade are key sectors in which Britain looks for special relations.

British PM supports India special relationship but Mr Johnson said the UK eeds to be competing for the Indian entrepreneurial classes and encouraging them to come and invest here, and the UK Visa cap is sending a contradictory message.

British Government introduced an interim UK Visa cap last week with the full cap to come into effect in April next year.The interim limits will apply to all new applicants under Tier 1 (General), except for extension applications and in-country applications. Applications under Tier 2 (General) will be limited by the number of Employer Sponsorship Licences that are issued.

Indian Government has complained directly to the Prime Minister about the cap on non-EU immigration saying the policy affects professionals needed by the UK economy: Indian doctors, engineers and nurses.

The UK Visa Bureau is an independent consulting company specialising in helping people with their UK Visa applications to the British Embassy.
