Re: India visit visa..
yes whatever DM said plus, you will have to fill 6 application forms so make sure you have 6 passport size pictures, i think the average time taken is 6-7 weeks.
also, you will have to mention the name and address of the person you will be staying with in India, the same person will have to go with you to the police station for the 'entry' and 'exit' process... oh by the way its same when an indian applies for a pakistani visa... so dont throw rotten tomatoes on me
Niksik, its much easy to get indian visa from London, fatee always prefers applying from London, she has applied three times and got her visa in couple of days everytime, may be coz I am her husband and was Indian at that time, not sure how long it will take now that I am a British. She will be applying again in Nov inshaAllah.
