“We are very much committed to assuring every Indian student admitted to a legitimate institution of higher education in the U.S. that he or she will be granted visa on time” Karen P Hughes, U.S. under secretary for the Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, told reporters here.

“We have increased the number of visas for Indian students and we want to further increase the number” Ms. Hughes said.
