H-1B visa fee hike: Zoho founder Sridhar Vembu urges Indians on H-1B visas to return home; 'Do not live in fear'
Zoho founder Sridhar Vembu has spoken out following the recent hike in H-1B visa processing fees in the United States. He advised Indians working in America on H-1B visas not to live in fear or insecurity due to policy changes but instead to consider returning home to India. Vembu emphasized that India today offers abundant opportunities for skilled professionals, entrepreneurs, and innovators, with a growing ecosystem across technology, startups, and manufacturing. He highlighted how dependency on foreign visas often puts professionals in a vulnerable position, whereas India provides a chance to build long-term stability and contribute directly to the nation’s growth. The visa fee increase is seen as another challenge for foreign workers, but Vembu’s message underlines confidence in India’s economic future. His remarks aim to inspire Indians abroad to re-evaluate career choices and explore opportunities in their home country rather than being restricted by uncertain immigration policies.
