News India Live, Digital Desk: Britain The impact of strict visas and immigration policies of the country is seen in the latest migration data of the country on Thursday, which includes Indian students and workers in the largest group of foreigners leaving the country last year. According to the 2024 analysis by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), around 37,000 Indians who came for the purpose of study, due to 18,000 work and 3,000 other were at the forefront of migration for unarmed reasons, were followed by Chinese students and workers (45,000).
Nigerian (16,000), PakistanStani (12,000) and American (8,000) are among the top five migrant nationalities, resulting in a total of 431,000 decline in the total net migration last year – which is about half of the previous year. The ONS analysis based on UK home office data states, “Among those migrant, Indian was the most common nationality.”
The report stated, “The study-related emigration was the most common reason for the five most consecutive non-EUs (European Union) nationalities to migrate in December 2024. Originally, the increase in long-term emigration of non-EU+ citizens coming on study visas is mainly induced by a large number of Indian and Chinese citizens in December 2024.”
ONS In the population statistics director Mary Gregory said that this decline is mainly due to a decrease in the number of people coming to work and studying in Britain, especially the number of students dependents.
He said, “The migration has also increased in 12 months by December 2024, especially those who originally came to Britain on a study visa when traveling restrictions were relaxed due to epidemic.” The UK government appreciated the decline in pure migration, it is an issue that has dominated the political agenda amid growing figures and remote immigration anti-immigration reforms in recent elections.
British Prime Minister Kir Starmer said in a statement on social media, “In Toriz’s rule, pure migration reached about 1 million – which is equal to the population of Birmingham. I know you are angry with this, and I promised you that I will change it.” “Today’s statistics suggest that we have reduced the pure migration last year to about half. We are withdrawing control,” he said.
According to experts, this decline is the biggest decline recorded in 12 months and the most important in pure migration since the early stages of Kovid epidemic reflects the decline of the year. The UK Home Secretary Yatete Cooper said, “These figures reflect a major increase in the return of unsuccessful refugees and foreign national criminals, record levels of illegal work and asylum backlog and reduction in hotel use.”
Meanwhile, long -term immigrants in Britain fell below 1 million for the first time in about three years. It is estimated to be 948,000 in the year ending December 2024, which is about one third from 1,326,000 in the last 12 months and is below one million for the first time after 12 months by March 2022.
In the year of December, the number of people leaving the criminal or country increased by about 11 percent to an estimate 517,000, which was 466,000 last year.
Under the opposition Conservative Party government led by Rishi Sunak, former Home Secretary James Kleverly retaliated on the Labor Administration, saying that a decline in net migration is the result of the policies implemented by him. He said, “This fall is due to the changes made by me in the visa rules.”
