The U.S. State Department has revoked visas of over 300 international students, including Indians, citing involvement in campus protests and social media activities deemed "anti-national." Secretary of State Marco Rubio indicated that more revocations are forthcoming, targeting those participating in disruptive actions. This crackdown has intensified concerns among international students, especially those engaged in activism. Notably, Turkish Fulbright Scholar Rumeysa Ozturk was detained in Massachusetts after co-authoring an article critical of university investments linked to Israel. Her detention has sparked legal challenges and debates over free speech rights for international students in the U.S. (PC: AP Photo)
