I talked to IIO at NSC regarding my case ( PD 01/96, RD 04/09/00, ND 05/09/00, FP 01/26/01 )they said that there was a freeze in issuing approvals for Indian and chinese applicants ( though one can see so many approvals coming along ) and now that they have got the quotas increased they are approving from past 2 weeks. I am not sure as to what is happening. Any insights ???
