Notably, this is a new facility for students as part of the Consulate's effort to support Indian students in its jurisdiction.

Several Indian and American companies and organizations have agreed to consider deserving Indian students for internship opportunities, the Consulate in New York said, referring to the Indian Student Resource Portal.

For the third consecutive year, a record number of Indian students traveled to the United States for higher education, the US Embassy in India revealed in a statement in November last year.

According to the Open Doors Report (ODR), the number of international students from India to the United States increased by 35 percent resulting in an all-time high of 2,68,923 students in the academic year 2022-23.

Indian students make up more than 25 percent of the more than one million foreign students studying in the United States.
