At the occasion, Ambassador Garcetti emphasized that more Indians than people from any other nation in the globe come to the US to study.
He underlined that in 2022, more than the proportion of the Indian population worldwide, one out of every five US student visas were issued in India. Indian students have a long history of excelling in academic pursuits in the US.
