London: Industry and student groups in Britain have welcomed the new UK-India Young Professionals Scheme launched by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, calling it a great step in ensuring the smooth movement of top talent between markets.

The scheme launched on Wednesday will be up and running from early next year to offer up to 3,000 visas annually to Indian students and professionals aged between 18 and 30 to live and work in the UK for 24 months, with British nationals granted a similar offer for India.

The Lord Mayor of London, who represents the financial hub of the City of London globally, welcomed the announcement from the G20 Summit in Bali and called for enhanced exchanges between the two countries in other areas too. (PTI)
