Rants and Stupid shit in New Delhi

[QUOTE=OldJack;2965195]Brother I'm certain you have more experience than me and even though I don't know you I respect your opinion but on this particular topic you're not right.

And no these European escorts that I talked about are not tourist. These are escorts charging crazy money who come to India almost every year maybe once or twice. I'll give you some example and others can verify too by using their name to find their site and visiting their touring section or just visiting their twitter profile where you could see some tweet about them visiting India.

So look for pure lily London (she has a website and she has toured India for a brief period in the past too and if you go to the tours section of her website you'd notice she's visiting India again in 2025) another one is Janka who has also visited India and she has been visiting India almost once or twice a year for the past 2-3 years. There's even am Australian one who is touring India and she has visited in the past as well.

[/QUOTE]I certainly don't buy whatever you said because of following reasons, hope you will update yourself -.

1) Australia is not Europe, so an Australian is not any European.

2) Those white girls (not Europeans) who update travel itinerary in their social media do so because they are looking for some host or informing their friends. By that account many European citizens do visit India and do vlogging, commonly known as youtubers and we certainly can't equalise a common visitor as an escort.

3) Pure Lily and Janka others who you have named, (I am not even aware of those) may be just visiting India for purposes other than escorting. Remember Sunny Leone? She was a Canadian pornstar before starting in movies and Big Biss. That's what these girls also trying in India. Do you think escorts are not human, well they might want to go to other promising Asian countries. In fact, Europeans go to Thailand also, where the sex tourism industry is better than India.

4) When a visa is applied for, the MEA intelligence division do a thorough vetting including the professional background of the applicant. That way most of unwanted profiles, specially escorts are eliminated due to country specific rules. I work with the government and I know what all is the process. The escorts can't apply for any country to specify they are going there for sex work. They will be banned.

5) To sum up, European escorts don't visit India for work, they go to Thailand, Singapore, Dubai and Australia for work. Even if they visit India in few numbers, they are mostly the old used hags who visit here for personal tours and nothing professional as their visa will be denied on the grounds which I have explained.

Some folks think that they know it all and will go to any length to negate reality even if they are wrong. It is not easy to tame 'ego'.

Take care.

[QUOTE=OldJack;2965190]Thank you. Exactly what I meant. There are a few Europeans (including the ones from London) and an Australian too who visit India. In fact I did meet one of them and although they are super expensive like you said my experience with one of them who I met at the four seasons was super amazing. So yes I have been noticing it for almost 4-5 years now. A lot of them come to India once or twice in a year and then they come again the next year but yes only now I have realised that they seem to visit closer to the winter months.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Bachelor0189;2965221]I am not adamant brother, I am telling you the truth and real facts because I know the reality.

1) Escorts from Europe won't be able to make into India for escorting due to visa restrictions and anti-prostitution policies of the government of India. Indian government doesn't promote sex tourism neither our local laws allow foreign escorts to come and do business in India. India is not Thailand. When any escort / normal tourist applies for visa, she has to undergo interview and purpose of visit which deters majority of them thinking of sex work.

2) No foreigner can come and exit India without the knowledge of the MEA, the respective Embassy, the consulate, the police and other law enforcement officers, the Local Intelligence Unit (LIU) and the civilian intelligence officers. It's not easy for foreigners to engage in prostitution in India individually because of the above reasons. They are constantly under surveillance based on the category of visa granted to them.

3) The escort you are mentioning (I don't know who is she) may visit multiple cities as a tourist and because that's what is allowed in tourist visa. The Indian government doesn't grant a visa for prostitution. There is no category of visa called 'Escort Visa'. If they break laws, they are immediately apprehended and put into detention for deportation. The European escorts know these rules better than you and me. Don't you think India is a beautiful country and foreigners may want to see the country, even if she is an escort, but in India she is a normal tourist and just want to see the country. There's nothing wrong. But for prostitution, they can't.

3) The escorts who post photos and travel itinerary in their website are their marketing hype, to showcase their popularity to the world, may be to gather more clients in their local geography, and sometimes they are not even posted by the escorts themselves, but by their agents who manage the website. The managers also post rates in INR for Indian clients visiting Europe to get an idea what they have to shell out in Europe, not in India. So even if you see those photos, they are not for escorting. Just for marketing.

4) If you say you have personally met them, then you have to show proof also like their passport, visa, the place of meet, date, time, year, photos etc which I hope won't be possible for you. Because no European escort would like to take such risks.

Lastly, it's easier to date a European tourist women in India, rather than finding an European escort in India.[/QUOTE]Bro few things you wrote are wrong or self contradictory.

You said everyone has to sit for an interview, not true. You can get an Evisa in 96 hours where you have to just mention purpose of your visit tourism, meeting family, medical etc. India get millions of tourist every year if embassy, consulate staff start interviewing each one then imagine how many staff will be needed. Only refugee and their dependents are usually interviewed along with Pakistanis & bangladeshis. VFS handles the paperwork for Indian govt in most of the countries and they do tell applicants if their grand parents moved to India after partition not to mention it bcs it will takes 6-9 months to approve the visa with few rounds of personal interviews.

So many Thais and Fillipinos are doing sex work in India so you mean they mentioned on their application that they will engage in sex work. I think no country have got a category called Escort Visa.

As for earning they will earn more in India than in Europe bcs in Europe there are so many like them. Simple demand and supply. Even pornstars were available in Europe for 300 euros an hour (in 2017) bcs there are so many of them. So if they come to India obviously they will earn more.

[QUOTE=VishudJb;2965270]For europe escorts India will not be preferable as ut is they are earning good money in Europe how ever few girls may come as tourist and try to make extra bucks to cover their expenses.[/QUOTE]Actually European escorts don't find it economical to fly all the way to India also. The flight ticket to Europe Shenzhen zone and visa cost is much cheaper rather than coming to India with huge flight ticket and visa costs. An European escort would rather mint money in Germany or Netherlands rather than coming to India.

1) Not every country grants E-visa and everyone has to mandatorily sit for an interview if they apply for visa. For this purpose only the VFS handles paperwork but the interview is done by embassy staff only. VFS doesn't do interviews. We are a huge population country and our embassy are well staffed for interview purposes, whatever be the number of tourists. It's not like millions of applicants are interviewed in a single day. It's a few hundreds each days and it's not a difficult task. And I hope no European escort grandparents moved to India during partition. So to sum up nobody can escape interview from the embassy officials why because it's a national security subject where they are vetted and their purpose of visit is validated. So if an escort is visiting in the guise of a tourist, she has to behave and roam like a tourist and not an escort, otherwise she will be deported back and her entry will be banned for visa rule violation.

2) Thais and Filipinos who come to work are coming under employment visa for spa and therapists, or as a massagers, but mostly they are trafficked via agents or SP who give them employment details and where to go for work, but once they end up in Delhi they are pushed into spa's. No European comes to work in spa in India.

3) If they come to India for escorting, they simply can't do it under tourist visa rules and it's banned. Most Europeans don't prefer India for harsh rules and moral policing. Instead they go to Dubai and Singapore, and Thailand, which are more attractive destination and they get to meet lots of Indians. If everyone starts coming to India for earning, then Germany and Netherlands would be empty right? But it's not happening anytime soon, not will happen in future. The demand and supply theory is just a myth. I haven't seen a huge flow of escorts even due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Show me one ISG Report of India where anyone has banged a proper sexy Ukrainian or Russian who has come to India due to dire economic situation there. Most of Ukrainians have migrated to markets in Poland, Austria and Germany for sex work rather than coming to Asia or India. Any argument has to be augmented by facts and figure. There is no proper data available to show that Europeans have filled the India markets. Instead it's the Bangladeshi, and Nepali escorts who are available in plenty in India. Even NGOs who do work in area of prostitution and human trafficking do research and their data's suggest lesser white skin compared to Bangladeshi or Nepali citizens engaged in sex work in India. As far as the theory of earning more is concerned, it's a vague argument totally because whatever they will earn here will be in Rupees and once they return to Europe, it again gets converted to Euro and the value will decrease automatically. Plus the customs and tax rules won't allow them to carry huge cash, and their bank accounts will be checked by their local governments for income tax purposes. So overall least beneficial for any European escort to do business in India. It's like they are earning the same money, whether in Europe or India, so rather they prefer Europe only to cust costs. But if they move to America, then it's a good deal because the dollar is strong compared to INR and they also find easier to find work.

To cut long story short, European escorts work and do well in other European countries and they are least interested to consider India as a sex market because of the rules and conservative market. Even a little of them come to India, they are past their prime and old ladies with loose pussy and grown up kids who just want to earn some extra for their kids education.

I am a dual citizen of 2 countries plus an OCI as well. I have applied for tourist Visa to India when I didn't had OCI and when I was transferring my OCI from passport of 1 country to another country. In both instances I didn't give an interview. Even my foreigner friends no one had to ever sit for an interview. For OCI as well there is no interview which is a much more rigorous exercise bcs govt is giving citizen ship.

Now coming to staffing for interviews and embassies / consulates being well staffed. Last year India received 9 million visitors. There are 365 days in a year out of which 104 are weekend so 261 days are left. Then there are 13 gazzetted which fell on weekdays plus the public holidays in the country of operation leaving 248 days to do the interviews as per you. Hours of operations are 0930-1530 where. Now there are around 5500 staff that work in overseas missions of India that includes security as well, cooks, in house housekeeping in sensitive countries. So you do the math for personal interviews. Forget about interviews for tourist visa there are no interview for work visa or student visa.

All the Thais and Filipinos are here on tourist visas and not on work visas as getting tourist visa is very easy with least amount of paperwok.

No country allows visa for prostitution even where it is legal. By your logic UAE allows prostitution visa? They all go to these countries on tourist visa and indulge in prostitution. They turn a blind eye till the time someone is hurt / robbed. As for taking currency you can change anywhere even in banks they charge few rs extra. My relationship manager does it without any extra charge for my friends as well.

Finally demand and supply is not myth it is a fact.

Finaly demand and supply is not myth it is a fact.[/QUOTE]I think you are not having any knowledge about citizenship and visa process. I won't explain much but below are some facts: I work with government of India and I know rules better than any other.

1) You say you are a dual citizen, but in reality you can't have dual citizenship because India doesn't allow anyone to carry dual citizenship. So either you are a normal citizen of other country with an OCI card. And I don't consider OCI people to be normal Indian citizens who are much aware of the our domestic policies. So your statement of being a dual citizen is a lie or you don't know the concept of citizenship rules.

2) All my foreigner friend and professional peers who have visited India even for a week or lesser than a week for any purpose had to undergo proper interview, nobody can escape interview. That's a fact and govt. of India policy. If you say your friend has not given interview he/she is lying or you are not well informed. You being a OCI can be relaxed for being an Indian heritage person, but any person not a citizen of India has to mandatorily give interview, update yourself properly.

Staffing and all is enough in place and every visa application is processed thoroughly for getting approval. You don't know the facts because you are not aware of rules. Irrespective of the holidays, the interviews will be conducted, whether India got 9 million or 10 million. As I said, tourist visa typically last for few days or weeks and the interview is not rigorous and happens fast even with additional accredited consular staff which are mandated to carry out interview. But if you coming for employment then the the interview is rigorous and time taking. Also interview processing varies for different countries. So processing of 9 million visa is not a difficult task and you don't even know the visa interview are conducted online also which eases the process. I know of an ambassador posted in France who took care of thousands of visa interviews in a single day few years ago working non-stop with his staff. For people who work in external affairs, inspite of gazetted holidays because emergency can happen anytime they have to work during emergency. Do you think our Embassy was in holiday during various crisis occasions in the past ? Just because the tourist inflow is huge, any country will relax interview? By that logic can you enter USA without giving any interview? Last year 66.5 million tourist visited the USA. Can you say the USA has lesser staff and they didn't vet properly or conducted interview for only half of 66.5 million, which is equal to 33 million? Update yourself. Without interview you don't get visa unless you are a diplomatic passport holder.

3) All Thais and Filipinos working in spa come on employment visa category. If they are are tourists, they won't be allowed to work in first place. I have explained this earlier.

4) Nobody goes to other countries on tourist visa and indulge in prostitution, but as I said they go on employment visa and then indulge in prostitution. For country like Germany, Netherlands, Hungary, Belgium etc, prostitution is legal and the employment visa covers that aspect of work. You need to understand properly. BTW UAE doesn't allow prostitution. You don't need to compare Gulf with Europe. In India no foreigner can come on tourist visa and engage in prostitution. You have to put facts and figures. My response with currency was to explain that whatever they earn in Europe is more than whatever they will earn in India with exchange rate basis. It doesn't relate anything with going to bank and exchanging desired currency.

Finally demand and supply is a myth in international market. India won't be a market for international escorts forever because India is not Europe. Even if Europe will have less demand, they won't venture out of that zone because economically it's not feasible.

I am citizen of NZ & Australia as well plus an OCI. You automatically loose Indian citizenship when you acquire any other citizenship. What you consider doesn't matter fact does and fact is that you don't know anything about Visa process for India. To gain some knowledge go through this [URL]https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/tvoa.html[/URL] and check the sample evisa.

All your friends who visited India must been pakistanis or bangladeshis with pakistani origins so it is obvious they will be interviewed. Even English cricketer Rehan Ahmed's visa was delayed bcs of his Pakistani origin. BTW to refresh your knowledge Pakistani cricketers when they came for world cup didn't had to go for personal interviews.

Now that ambassador conducting thousands of interviews in a day. In a day there are 1440 minutes and what your are saying they did thousands so lets take a figure of 5 k interviews as per you. This mean staff did an interview every 0. 30 seconds which is less than a minute. Either he did not do it which means you are lying or they did a really bad job. So it is obvious you are lying because you don't know what you are talking. My suggestion is to do your math before posting random things.

Now you saying tourist Visa lasting for a few days / weeks is wrong. Go through the link to get upto speed. Now coming to your logic of US interviewing 65 million people. US doesn't inteview 65 million, Also I have been to US to multiple times everytime I get an ESTA valid for 2 years multiple entries. No interviews ever and I am not a diplomatic passport holder as well. Again shows your limited / nil knowledge.

Again you saying people don't indulge in prostituion on a tourist visa are wrong. This is the easiest way to indulge. In Aust alone there are so many people who are deported to work in massage parlours while on tourist visas. Once again no country has a Visa category that gives Visa for prostitution. Even in NZ.

Demand and supply is not a myth it is a fact just like fact is that you don't know anything / much about Indian Visa rules.

[QUOTE=Alexandra2525;2965604]Are you honestly trying to say that all foreign nationals wanting to visit India are interviewed??

[/QUOTE]I am not completely wrong but what you wrote is completely wrong. If you host a delegation of 50 or even 5 person, it's purely for professional purpose and since they came due to India due your reference for a short visit or whatsoever because you were hosting something, they are not considered tourist even if they write their purpose of visit as tourist. I don't think a delegation of people who are visiting for professional purpose can be equalised with people who come as tourist. A delegation is something which means a group of people who come for research, academic or business etc. As far as not getting interviewed, I don't think it's true and its incorrect, you should prove that with evidence that they were not interviewed which is impossible. I don't buy your argument because firstly you were event organiser and they were not tourists. Nobody can escape interview for getting a visa, that's the norm here in India. Anything contrary to this a lie or bluff. I have also organised delegations and all my delegates had to undergo interview. Getting into a country is not a joke. It's not your neighborhood to visit anytime without fulfilling the due norms.

Know the rules better than you. And you say you are an Indian diplomatic passport holder, then how come you are also an OCI holder ? You contradict your own statement. If you are a citizen of other country, you are least qualified to talk about rules of my country! Not interested to drag this useless conversation anymore with people having least knowledge.

Take care !
