Daves not here

He precipitated in some protests i think. Immigration sort of makes stuff up. They just say your evisa isn't valid or you overstayed. India government is bit paranoid of foreigners. Karl paints Indians in a bad light as scammers. You can see he is always trying to say good things about India in his videos lately. It is a special taste India, some great places and laid back people who speak English. Serious problems with pollution and rubbish. It is not so hot like Thailand, has long wide beaches, cool mountain retreats. A lot things Thailand does not offer.

No i wasn't arrested. I applied for a e-biz visa which was granted but when i arrived at the airport they check the invitation letter i had submitted and decided it was invalid. Then after a hours of back and forth they rejected me and blacklisted me. I have no idea for how long, probably a year or more. There is no mark in in pp or anything. Blacklist in India is a secret list but i will show up in the computer if i tried to enter. I think also in Nepal and SL. It means i am basically being watched as a suspicious person. Karl Rock was blacklisted for 500 days.

Indian immigration is a bit difficult. I think they were looking for a bribe the whole time which i did not offer, so they made the whole situation worse. You can see the situation is rampant. https://ipaidabribe.com/reports/all/all-cities/airports-2/all-amount#gsc.tab=0

I got blacklisted from India for a minor issue. Do Thai customs and immigration see this on their screens? I was thinking of applying for the 5 year Nomad visa, will this hamper my application?
