Rubio defends US green-card overhaul in New Delhi amid diplomatic pushback

On a visit to New Delhi, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended revised green-card rules that require applicants to seek permanent residency from outside the United States, saying the changes are not aimed at India; New Delhi pressed that legal mobility should not be adversely affected, while an Indian tech founder urged workers in the US to consider returning home and a US spokesperson said high-skilled workers may be unaffected as the administration reiterates congressional intent.
