US cancels visas of over 400 int’l students, including Pakistanis

The visas of about 450 international students at several US universities have been unexpectedly canceled.

According to US media, students from Pakistan and other Muslim countries whose visas were canceled at US universities are also included.

US media say that the visa cancellation was done without prior notice and legal action.

According to US media, there may be several reasons for the visa cancellation, but officials associated with colleges and universities say that the government is taking this step quietly.

The Trump administration is specifically targeting students who have been demonstrating in favor of the Palestinians, but the visas of some people have been canceled even though they did not participate in any demonstration.

The universities whose students' visas were canceled include many educational institutions including Harvard, Stanford, UCLA, and the University of Michigan.

According to US media, the visas of 12 students and graduates at UCLA were canceled, while one student from the University of Michigan left the country.

US media say that most of the student visas were canceled during the audit of the SUS system.

On the other hand, educational institutions and human rights activists have expressed serious concerns.

Meanwhile, universities are busy providing legal assistance and support to students, while international students are worried about visa cancellations. Student organizations have raised questions about the violation of the regulation.
