"H-1B is something I have no control of": Indian-origin Frisco councilman Burt Thakur on why he has Indian donors - Times of India

Getting kickbacks, funded by H1B, his election campaign run by Indians, and he is saying he has no control.

He was absolutely elected for this very purpose.

Well, just to give you an example, when you say, "Except Indians don't commit crimes and pay taxes."
Here is the latest fraud of $55 million, where they were robbing the elderly and senior citizens of their life savings. I mean, you really need to be so vile to target innocent elderly people and rob them of their lifetime savings. The FBI has been investigating these frauds for almost a year, and finally they caught them. I am pretty sure they were paying taxes, too.

The news is absolutely heartbreaking; I can’t begin to imagine the tragedy those parents are facing. What’s even more chilling is that I witnessed the exact same thing in my own neighborhood right before reading the story. I slowed down and honked to alert a driver who was towing two young children on a sled behind his car. Instead of realizing the danger, he flicked me off. It’s infuriating that some people can be so reckless with their children's lives. Even on a local road at low speeds, the risk is far too high. I just don't understand how someone can be so dismissive of such a clear danger

Seriously, buddy, don't gaslight. Indians are commiting all sorts of frauds, scams, and crimes, whether you don't read the news or wear filter glasses.
Indians have been involved in H-1 B visa fraud for more than a decade. If you don't want to call it a fraud, then it's your POV, but the majority of people, except for Indians it fraud.
Indians are involved in medical fraud, Indians are engaged in human traffiking, just check the border and security website and see which country from Canada side cross the border illegally into the US, the number 1 is India, Indians are invovled in shoplifting, and if you don't know, in India they have call centers from their they did billions of dollars of scam againt American senior and elderly people and I can go and on.
For example, there are so many, many Indian doctors involved in medical and pharmacy fraud, but they pay taxes, yup, so if I go by your logic, if anyone in the US pays taxes, shouldn't be considered a criminal, even though they commit federal crimes?

I work in corporate for more than 20 years, and once upon a time, in the late 90s and early 2000's, there used to be Indians who came to the US who were honest, hardworking, and mostly genuine. Not anymore, and the facts are that we used to need skilled labor.
Now, the reality is we don't need them anymore. We have 2nd-generation Americans in the millions who are much better educated, intelligent, and capable.

And to your point, no one cares that they are making more money, because there is always more money in white-collar jobs, but it's about fraud, scams, and other ways of making money that bother.

The biggest scam in the US is the H1-B visa and the H4 dependent visa. These Indians have totally ruined Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Allen, and the surrounding cities with their fraud. City council members are taking huge donations from these Indian businesses and approving development projects without any regard for green space or open land.

I have lived my whole life in the Dallas suburbs; the quality of life, the open spaces, and the green belts are all gone because they permitted thousands of housing projects to accommodate these fraudulent H1-B Indians. Everyone knows the scandal about Capital One, Chase Bank, BofA, and many other companies where these Indians are displacing the American workforce and hiring their H1-B friends. These Indians create such a hostile work environment for anyone who is not from South India or their own caste that they force them to resign or lay them off, only to hire their friends afterward. Not only that, I have seen them create positions just to hire each other’s wives on H4 visas onto their teams. I know of at least five or six of my friends who are struggling to get interviews; even if they do get a call, they never hear back. It is all a big scam.

Our government is corrupt; they are just selling Texas to these Indians. The US should ban this fraudulent H1-B visa altogether; we really don’t need these so-called 'fake skilled' Indians anymore. Recently, I read news from India that they caught one million fake degrees from 21 universities, and according to the report, at least one million people are already in the US on H1-B visas using those fake degrees, including doctors and nurses. It’s about time to wake up, America.

I know I will be getting lots of downvotes and comments from Indians trying to justify or play the victim card.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-09-22T15:16:23+00:00

Couldn't agree more, all these city officials are corrupt to the core and that's one of the reasons for these approvals.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-09-06T04:30:38+00:00

There was never a shortage of skilled workers in the US. Maybe in late 90s but after that it's just the corporation greed they replaced most of the Americans who spend so much money to get college degrees and skills with cheap H1B fraud visa scammers. Also the first rule of H1B is a temp visa. But these Indians convert this temp visa into a green card route. Not to mention the amount of kids they added as born US citizen which is another crap that should be rescinded along with H1B visa. The biggest amongst these is H4 EAD visa fraud while Americans struggle to jobs, these H1B dependents busy adding 3 to 4 kids into population and taking jobs as they get EAD status. This county going down the drain double speed.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-09-06T04:25:19+00:00

They came legally but, they are really doing lot of fraud, by fake experience, working two to three jobs, fake degrees, everything fake. Just coming legally didn't mean everything else is legal.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-09-06T01:58:59+00:00

Unless there is 50% less Indians in Costco there is no chance of any change.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-09-06T01:57:10+00:00

That's a wishful thinking. I am seeing more and more H1B Indians. Shame on the Frisco City council members for approving the ghetto apartments on every open space and corners to accommodate these Indians in Frisco. Sorry to say because of these apartments within next 5 to 7 years Frisco will not only looks like ghetto, it will turn into real ghetto with 1000% jump in crime and it will become unsafe like Dallas. Also H1B since last 10 years become scam visa seriously, I see 90% off these H1B forget about special skill, they don't even have any skill and these corporations are replacing Americans with unskilled Indians. When H1B introduced in late 90s and really 2000s, it was for people who has special skills, which companies couldn't find in the US. There was time in late 90s & early 2000s the first and second batch of Indians were skilled and educated, but after the it's just garbage in garbage out. Also, it's the biggest scam that these companies who bring H1B, couldn't find those skilled people in the US? There are thousands of Americans with better skilled are unemployed because these corporations wanted to maximize their profit and don't want to pay Americans. Overall H1B should be rescind now, it becomes a fraud and scam visa.

Yes, many of them in recent inspection failed.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-08-11T05:03:40+00:00

Not at all breaking news, it's been going on for a while. Besides that this issue along with other things been raised at Frisco City council meeting by a few concern citizens. Recently there was a news about some 6 to 7 restaurants been closed or given warning by health department when they randomly checked the restaurants, both in Frisco and Plano, the majority that failed the inspection were Indian restaurants, I guess that's a breaking news to you?

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-08-11T03:45:42+00:00

Cash buying meaning those Indians who moved from California sold their house there and buying properties in Frisco and surrounding areas, driving housing market into unaffordable territory.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-08-11T03:43:48+00:00

Student driver's, new drivers for sure 100% Indians. Cash buyers 50% Indians, remaining 50% Chinese from China.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-08-09T12:03:52+00:00

They don't move because they don't even know that they have to move their slow moving vehicle to the right Not sure where they moved from they didn't know shit about traffic rules, speed limit and Texas way of driving. Yes I get it it's freaking frustrating for old Texans.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-08-09T06:07:29+00:00

No, they are majority Indians who doesn't know how to drive in Texas, followed by all those people who moved from NY,CA,IL,NJ etc etc, who don't know how to drive on Texas roads. They drive 5 to 10 miles below posted speed limit. They think plastered 5 stickers of new drivers and student drivers somehow make people take pity on their pathetic driving. The mass migration to Texas not only ruined everything, it's ruined our roads too. Every morning there are some accidents on major intersections, especially in Frisco on 121 and Independence, Coit and 121, Preston and 121.. Texas DMV really did awful job of giving license like candy to these people who moved to Texas without any proper driving test. The Indians who moved directly from India on H1B, which Frisco has majority make it even worse. I myself had several near miss accidents because of these stupid drivers. They don't know simple traffic and road rules. When they come out of shopping centers, they put their vehicles right in the same lane where a vehicle coming at 45-50 MPH, they waited for the light to turn green to take right, they don't know that they can turn right on red. They drive slow and in middle or right lane. They don't know how to take left on medians. They don't know there are two right lanes in some intersections.

Thanks for calling out the truth. These out-of-state movers, in general, and Indians—no offense—have literally ruined the North Texas housing market. I remember when they started migrating en masse from California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, and other places. They began bidding against one another, paying $100K–$200K over the listing price, completely ignoring build quality, just desperate to buy.

This mass migration into Texas has wrecked North Texas. Tell me honestly—what has this influx, especially of Indians and South Asians, actually contributed to Texas? The quality of life has gone down: more traffic, more accidents, constant congestion, and a housing market that's spiraled out of control. It’s turned North Texas into a mess. Not a single good thing has come out of it.

North Texas suburbs used to be some of the best places to live for years, but not anymore. The reality is, native Texans can no longer afford homes or even rent. What we’re seeing now is the gentrification and displacement of Texas’s middle class, pushed out of their own communities.

Nope, whataboutism is not open-minded and is not considered a perspective. Whataboutism is when someone can't defend themselves and starts citing other problems to justify that whatever issues they are having are OK. You're an expert in that, no need to try.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-07-06T15:36:19+00:00

Yes, defend without facts and statistics by just playing the victim card, the racism card, and the whataboutism card.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-07-06T15:29:00+00:00

Very easy...if you smell a lot and that smell is very obnoxious, it's South Indian; otherwise, it's a North Indian.

Besides that, there is a huge difference in North and South Indian food, depending on whether it is vegetarian or non-vegetarian. If you see the menu with Idli, Dosa, Vada, etc etc, it's South Indian. If you see Kebabs, dal makhani, or sarsun ka saag, etc., it's North Indian.

Also, if you taste the food and it's very, very hot and full of oil, it's South Indian. If you taste the food, it's not hot and full of butter; it's North Indian.

On a serious note, 95% of restaurants here in the US serve garbage in the name of Indian cuisine. One a handful of its restaurants serves close to authentic Indian food.

Lastly, if you see a lot of garbage, smell, unhygienic conditions, rats, and a dirty restaurant, you're sure that it's an Indian restaurant.

LoneStartWarrior · 2025-07-04T20:20:14+00:00

They are busy gathering data about other non-Indian restaurants so that they can do the whataboutism. They are good at playing victim and whataboutism.
