India denies e-visas to UK, Canadian nationals

As per MHA official, the e-visa facility for the UK and Canadian citizens have been withdrawn from the first week of August this year. Earlier also, India denied e-visa facilities to Chinese nationals due to the Galway Valley incident.
In what appears to be a reciprocal treatment for citizens of Canada and the United Kingdom, the Indian government has withdrawn the e-visa facility for them, according to sources. A senior Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) official confirmed that post-Covid, UK and Canada have posed a lot of restrictions over the entry of Indian nationals in their country and many of the times, travellers have to face inconvenience despite several requests were made to the concerned embassies to take up.
