										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-start="280" data-end="714">Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy strongly criticized the recent H1B visa fee hike, calling it “totally unacceptable.” He posted on X (formerly Twitter) to voice his opposition, saying the increase could hurt thousands of Indian professionals working in the United States. The Chief Minister emphasized that skilled workers and students may face additional financial pressure due to the higher fees.</p>
<p data-start="716" data-end="1121">Revanth Reddy highlighted that global talent mobility plays a key role in the development of India’s IT and technology sectors. He said policies that burden professionals could affect India-US cooperation and discourage young talent from seeking international opportunities. The CM urged both the Indian and US governments to reconsider the fee hike and ensure smooth access for qualified professionals.</p>
<p data-start="1123" data-end="1472">The post sparked widespread attention on social media. Many IT experts and citizens expressed concerns that the increased costs may reduce career opportunities for Indian workers abroad. Some argued that higher fees could push students and professionals to look for alternative destinations, which may affect India’s global workforce contribution.</p>
<p data-start="1474" data-end="1692">Revanth Reddy’s strong statement on X also encouraged dialogue between government officials, industry leaders, and professionals. He emphasized that protecting the interests of Indian talent should remain a priority.</p>
<p data-start="1694" data-end="2027">Industry analysts say the fee hike could influence decisions for companies that hire Indian workers on H1B visas. Professionals may reconsider relocating if the additional costs are substantial. By speaking out, the Telangana CM highlighted the importance of policy decisions that support talent mobility rather than discourage it.</p>
<p data-start="2029" data-end="2254">Reddy’s post reinforced his commitment to defending the interests of Indian professionals globally. He underlined that skilled workers are vital for India’s growth, and unfair financial burdens should be addressed promptly.</p>
