Visa Delay Affects International Travel, Passengers Fear Financial Losses

33-year-old Prayash Giria was looking forward to his trip to Greece along with his three cousins, but with only two weeks left for his flight the visa is nowhere in sight.  Mr Giria says he submitted his documents more than a month ago. On the WhatsApp group that Greece visa applicants have formed after finding each other through social media, over 160 members have similar complaints. With a proper resumption of travel after two years of the pandemic, many who planned an international holiday this summer are facing the nightmare of not getting their visa on time.
