Canberra: After Canada, now Australia has also given a big blow to Indian students who want to study abroad. Australia has announced that it will limit the number of international students coming to Australia to 2.7 lakh in 2025.

Australian Education Minister Jason Clare said that this limit includes higher education courses as well as vocational education and training courses. This move of the Australian government is going to have a big impact on students hoping to go abroad.
