FYI: RS 750 is $9. Doesn't seem that unreasonable to me š¤·
In fact, India should charge every foreign tourist RS 830 (~$10) except the British who should have to pay RS 1660 (~Ā£15) but it comes with biscuits and have little shops that sell overpriced tea š
I'm from Pakistan so it's not like I can ever get a visa to India in the first place but why do this? Why make an entire nationality pay more money because of events they were never involved in? If this is supposed to act as "reparations" then again, why are you charging people who are already paying a lot of money to get to the country?

With the exception of a select few historical places, no other place should charge you more.
Do you know why this is? My first thought would be to make crowded historical places more accessible to Indians by increasing the cost of admission for tourists.

They do this in Thailand. When you live here & donāt pull in the same income as before but can speak the language & whatnot, it feels awful to be treated as such an other when your local community accepts you. You also need to understand how they check which is normally just a skin color checkāIāve spoken to Filipinos that never get the foreigner rate. The worst one for me was in Laos where I was joking in Lao with the staff & had to pay the price, but some ethnic Lao folks from France got the local price despite not speaking a lick & asking me local culture questions in English. I didnāt hold it against them personally, but it really sucks.
