Setback for Indians as Britain bans foreign students from bringing families into UK
Tuesday, 2 January 2024 The UK government, led by British home secretary James Cleverly, has implemented new visa restrictions that effectively prohibit most international students from bringing their family members to the UK. This change, which took effect on Monday, applies to all foreign students except those enrolled in postgraduate research courses or government-funded scholarship programs. Cleverly described the previous allowance for overseas students to bring their families as an “unreasonable practice.” The measures, initially announced in May by his predecessor Suella Braverman, come in the wake of net migration figures reaching 672,000.
The meeting between the Irish Minister for Justice Helen McEntee and the British Home Secretary James Cleverly was postponed last minute on Sunday evening.

The United Arab Emirates witnessed an unprecedented deluge, marking its most substantial rainfall on record since 1949. Described as a "historic weather event" by the state-run WAM news agency, the widespread downpour across the UAE is attributed to a combination of factors, including cloud seeding initiatives. Significant disruptions have been reported in flights from India to Dubai due to heavy rains causing flooding at the emirate's airport, one of the world's busiest. Air India, operating 72 weekly flights from multiple Indian cities to Dubai, alongside IndiGo, have cancelled their services on Wednesday. Other carriers, including Air India Express, Vistara, and SpiceJet, which also serve various Indian cities to Dubai routes, have been affected as well. Dubai, hosting a substantial Indian diaspora, sees these flight cancellations impacting travel plans and connections for many.
