I'm just going to respond to this comment since all are saying the same thing basically - the comment I replied to was implying something else, that Australians are working in India and weren't able to return when the government demanded it because they would have lost their jobs in India, which sounds like a legitimate reason to refuse to return, but also sounds like a group of people that's likely mostly imaginary.

I'm sure there's a bunch of Australians going to India for all kinds of reasons, I didn't mean to imply people from Australia never travel to India in general, but people who were visiting India could have returned when the government warned them to do so, and I assume the vast majority did, apart from covid-denying "you can't tell me what to do" types which I have little sympathy for.
