Unlike earlier days when people used to have blind faith on the western world, the scenario today is changed and there is dire need that people should enquire, verify and countercheck before dealing with entities based in western world. As it is said that world has become a global village and lately thousands of students from India are visiting foreign nations for study purposes by paying hefty amount as fees and other expenses including insurance etc. The same is true for the people of the J&K UT as there is a trend now to send children overseas for study purposes but the time has changed with people being deceived by the colleges as the recent case of four such colleges came to fore in Canada. Reportedly, over 2,000 Indian students faced an uncertain future after three Montreal colleges closed last month by declaring bankruptcy. The affected lot is struggling in foreign land and is seeking intervention by the Canadian government to give them justice but the situation is an eye opener for many in India to think hundred times before taking a step akin to the aforesaid students who are hanging in lull due to deceptive colleges in Canada. The CCSQ College, M College and CDE College had collected millions of dollars in tuition fees from the aforesaid students before closing. The modus operandi of these colleges is the same and therefore affected students are protesting in Canada alleging that they have been scammed and their careers are in doldrums. These students are currently in a fix but this should be taken as a lesson and those who intend to go for the studies in foreign lands should first become doubly sure that they are not been scammed in the manner the aforesaid colleges in Canada have duped thousands of students. At present these students are seeking intervention by the Canadian Government to help them complete their courses from other colleges but it is important for the people who wanted to send their children to foreign lands not to believe on colleges and their agents blindly as there are ways and means to check and counter check the authenticity of the educational institutions.
