Over 700 Indian students in Canada are at risk of being deported after their admission offer letters were found to be fake. The students, who arrived in Canada on study visas three to four years ago, had used these offer letters to gain admission to various colleges across the country. The letters had been allegedly forged by their agent, Brijesh Mishra, who had promised to help them secure admission to Canadian colleges.
No permanent residency?
After arriving in Canada, the students completed their studies and found jobs. However, when they applied for permanent residency, the Canadian Border Security Agency discovered that their offer letters were fake. The agency has since begun deportation proceedings against the affected students.
The incident highlights the risks of using unauthorized agents to secure admission to foreign colleges. Many students from developing countries, such as India, often rely on agents to help them navigate the complex application process for international colleges. However, some of these agents may engage in fraudulent practices, such as forging documents, to secure admission for their clients.
