<h1>H1B visa allocation: government engages in bilateral dialogue to address skilled-migration issues and reintegration responsibilities.</h1> The government reported that Indian nationals received a substantial majority of H1B visas for October 2022-September 2023 and is engaging with the US administration and stakeholders through bilateral dialogue mechanisms on the H1B programme, while asserting that reintegration of returned migrants is primarily the responsibility of state governments; it also provided figures on Indian students affected by conflicts, described repatriation and return under 'Operation Ajay,' and welcomed a Gaza ceasefire urging humanitarian access and release of hostages.
