Trump administration considers proposal that may send back more than 500,000 Indian tech workers

印媒：美国或考虑遣返50多万印度技术工人的提案

WASHINGTON: India may be looking at upwards of 500,000 of its "skilled" work force returning home from America if a proposal by the Trump administration not to extend H-1B visa of those waiting for permanent residency (Green Card) is implemented.

华盛顿：如果川普政府不延长那些等待绿卡的H-1B签证，或许会有超过50万“熟练”劳动力返回印度。

The Department of Homeland Security is said to be considering new regulations that would prevent H-1B visa extensions as part of President Donald Trump's "Buy American, Hire American" initiative promised during the 2016 campaign.

据称，美国国土安全局考虑出台新法规，阻止H-1B签证的延长，此举作为总统川普在2016年承诺的“购买美国货，雇佣美国人”的倡议的一部分。

Because there is such a huge backlog of Green Card applicants, particularly for countries such as India and , hundreds of thousands of workers from these countries spend 10-12 years in what is mirthlessly called H-1B hell or limbo. The small 'comfort' they currently have is they can remain in the US while the Green Card is being processed.

由于绿卡申请数量庞大，尤其是印度和这样的国家，成千上万的工人花10~12年的时间拿H-1B签证。小“安慰”是，绿卡被处理时，他们可以留在美国。

BJP jumped with joy to say that Trump blocking financial aid to Pak was result of PM Modi's diplomacy. In the same manner PM should take credit for this debacle also. Paltry US aid blockage will not hurt Pak as much as this move will hurt India. BJP and PM Modi's should tread the path of grabbing undue credits very cautiously. Its a double edged sword.

人民党高兴地说，川普不援助巴基斯坦了，这是莫迪外交的结果。
同样，这次失败也是莫迪的功劳。
美国无关痛痒的封锁对巴基斯坦不会造成多大影响，但此举则会打击印度。

if this happens.. sudden influx of skilled workers will drive unemployment rates in India to a point where wages will fall thru the floor ..

真如此的话，突然涌入的技术工人，会使得印度失业率增加，工资水平下降。

Deportation should be selective and Green card applications of fraud IT 'engineers' with fake degree/experience should be rejected. There are so many of them, mostly Hyderabadis.

驱逐出境应该是有选择性的，那些伪造学历/经验的IT“工程师”应该会被拒绝。这种人很多。
