The tussle that started in the US for the last several months regarding the visa of foreign students seems to be coming to an end. In this connection, the US has said that it is once again starting the visa process for foreign students, but along with the announcement of starting this process, the US has also laid down a condition, under which the US will search the social media accounts of foreign students applying for visa. For this, foreign students will have to keep their social media accounts unlocked. This information was given by the US Foreign Department on Wednesday.

Eye on anti-US posts
The USA is keeping an eye on the US posts of foreign students. The US Foreign Department said on Wednesday that consulate officials will keep an eye on those posts and messages that can be considered hostile to the US, its government, culture, institutions, or founding principles.

While Israel is dropping bombs on Iran, North Korea has fired 10 missiles. Store ripe bananas in these 5 ways, they will not spoil for a long time. The Trump administration last month temporarily halted the scheduling of new visa interviews for foreign students hoping to study in the US, as it was preparing to expand monitoring of their activity on social media.

If the account is unlocked, you will not get a visa.

A notice made public by the US State Department on Wednesday said that it has repealed its order of suspension of the student visa process in May. Now the visa process is being started again in the new system, under which the social media accounts of foreign students applying for visas will be reviewed.

If a student applying for a visa does not unlock his social media account and refuses to review it, then his visa application can be rejected. The order states that refusal to do so may be a sign that they are trying to escape or hide their online activity.

Such foreign students will get priority.

The US has started the visa process for foreign students from Wednesday. This started when students from all over the world were eagerly waiting for the US consulates to resume the process of giving time for visa interviews, as the new session was about to start. In such a situation, they have less time left to book travel and arrange for accommodation.

While resuming the visa process, the State Department also asked the consulates to give priority to those students who want to be admitted in colleges where the number of foreign students is less than 15 percent.
