US President Donald Trump has announced a $100,000 fee on H-1B visas, causing shock across the tech industry. The White House later said the fee will only apply to new applications, but concerns remain. Experts warn the move could slow US growth by making it harder for firms to hire foreign talent. Tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon employ thousands on H-1B visas, mostly from India. While India may face short-term challenges, analysts believe the US could suffer more in the long run. Companies may shift projects offshore, raising costs for American clients and reducing productivity. (PC: NDTV)
