Over the past two decades, Indian student's mobility to foreign universities has become an integral part of the India's higher education landscape. Whilst the number of students opting for studying overseas is increase, there is also an increase in fraud carried out by some agents and students alike with an aim of making entry to the shores of countries such as Australia, United Kingdom and New Zealand. This has forced countries such as Australia and United Kingdom to make some significant changes to their laws governing the student visas. Giving the view on the recent changes in law Mr. Gulati says, "These changes would help Australia, United Kingdom and others to attract better quality Indian students as the students would now be forced to choose the courses that is in sync with their career objectives instead of choosing the course purely with permanent residence motive. These changes will further help students develop a truly international career and would also ensure better employment opportunities as they would have the genuine skills set required to be job ready anywhere in the world."
