For travel to India, the consulate makes acquiring a visa the most difficult task. I hope one day @narendramodi can remedy this. It’s sad.

She further claims that she had applied for a one-year visa, but she was issued one for only three months. She adds that a certain employee was very friendly and accommodating when she identified Lilly as an internet celebrity, even asking to click a photo with her. But when she went to collect her visa, she was given one for three months and her protestations were ignored.
“So you’re going to make me fly back here in three months again, and pay for this all over again, and this is not cheap, it’s hundreds of dollars… just so you can make money and make this as difficult as possible? When yesterday you wanted a picture with me, everyone was very, very nice!” the Indian origin vlogger fumes in the video.
