PM Modi has recently made a big announcement regarding providing five years of work visa to Indian students who are pursuing their masters in France. Earlier Indian students used to only get it on their work visa to post their masters in France but now students can stay in France for five years after completing their masters. This is a part of the multifaceted India France strategic partnership. approximately 6000 Indian students were studying in France in 2021 to 2022. This initiative is likely to increase the number of students going to France from India for higher education.
