Hundreds of international students in the US are receiving self-deportation emails from the State Department, allegedly due to campus activism. Indian students may also be affected, with some facing visa cancellations even for social media activity.

This crackdown follows an AI-driven effort by Secretary of State Marco Rubio to revoke visas of foreign nationals suspected of supporting designated terror groups. Over 300 students have already lost their visas. Affected students are being informed that their SEVIS record is terminated, requiring immediate departure from the US.

Legal experts warn that visa reinstatement will be difficult, especially under the current administration. Students are advised to seek legal counsel to defend against removal proceedings.
