Indian Embassy in US issues emergency number for H-1B concerns

**Indian Embassy in US Issues Emergency Number for H-1B Concerns**

*By Akash Pandey | Sep 21, 2025, 01:47 PM*

**Overview**

The Indian Embassy in the United States has issued an emergency assistance number for Indian nationals amid growing concerns following a new proclamation by President Donald Trump. The proclamation imposes a $100,000 fee on H-1B visa applications, raising alarm among thousands of Indian tech professionals working in the US.

The embassy shared an official message on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “Indian nationals seeking emergency assistance may call cell number +1-202-550-9931 (and WhatsApp).”

**Impact on Indian Tech Professionals**

The announcement of the hefty new fee has triggered widespread worry about its impact on Indian tech workers and remittances sent back home. Indians make up approximately 71-72% of all H-1B visa recipients, highlighting the significance of this policy change.

Fortunately, a senior official from the US administration clarified that the annual fee applies only to new H-1B visa petitions and does not affect existing visa holders or those renewing their visas. While this offers some relief, uncertainties remain among businesses and affected individuals.

**Important Note**

The emergency number provided by the Indian Embassy is intended strictly for urgent assistance related to the new fee structure and is **not** for routine consular queries.

**Diplomatic Response**

In response to these changes, the Indian government has instructed all its missions and posts in the US to provide maximum support to Indian nationals preparing to travel or return in the next 24 hours.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) is closely analyzing how these new rules could affect Indian families and professionals living in the US.

MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal commented on the situation, saying, “The full implications of the measure are being studied by all concerned.” He emphasized that both Indian and American industries have a shared interest in fostering innovation and creativity, suggesting ongoing consultations to find the best way forward.

The situation is evolving, and Indian nationals affected by these changes are encouraged to stay informed through official channels and utilize the emergency assistance number if needed.

Borderlands 4: All Safehouses and datapad locations

Safehouses in Borderlands 4: Locations and Datapads Guide

Safehouses in Borderlands 4 are one of the key ways to fast-travel across the expansive world of Kairos. Since your quests often take you from one corner of the map to another, relying solely on your hoverbike can become time-consuming. Fast-traveling through Safehouses saves considerable time, especially when replaying the campaign with another character.

To secure a Safehouse, you’ll need to find its corresponding datapad. There are fourteen Safehouses in Borderlands 4, scattered across the four major regions. This guide will walk you through the location of every Safehouse along with the location of their datapads.

All Safehouse and Datapad Locations in Borderlands 4

Fadefields Region

  1. Abandoned Post (Coastal Bonescape)
    The Abandoned Post is the first Safehouse you unlock in Borderlands 4, introduced during the first main quest, Recruitment Drive, after joining the Crimson Raiders. Claptrap will bring you here and task you with defeating your first boss and securing a jetpack, which you use to climb to the Safehouse entrance. The datapad is located on a console inside. Grab it to secure the Safehouse and advance the story.
  2. Shut-Eye Keep (The Howl)
    Early in the game, you can access Shut-Eye Keep by using the lift at the base of the tower near the pond. You can bypass enemies guarding the area and head directly to the top. The datapad is near a lantern on top of some boxes inside the vendor shop. Look for a grapple point in the upper left corner of the room to reach it.
  3. Someday Rise (Idolators Noose)
    Located on top of a hill, Someday Rise requires you to approach from the back. Head toward the Fortress Indomita entrance, then find a Ripper drill on the right side; from there, stairs and grapple points lead upwards. Defeat all manglers roaming nearby. The datapad is inside a tent in the right corner. Use it to secure the Safehouse.
  4. Wyclefs Reprieve (Idolators Noose)
    This Safehouse lies across the bridge to the Tipping Point bunker on the right side of Fortress Indomita. Enter the building, go to the destroyed deck, and jump down onto some boxes to find the datapad. Nearby caves lead back up, allowing you to unlock the Safehouse.

Terminus Range Region

  1. Grey Havenge (Cuspid Climb)
    Grey Havenge resembles a monastery and is close to the lift leading to the upper section of Terminus Range. The datapad is on one of the houses in front of the Safehouse. Use your grapple hook to scale a climbable wall, grab the datapad, then glide with your booster to return and secure the area.
  2. Heritage Opus (Cuspid Climb)
    A multi-section Safehouse in Cuspid Climb. Scale a climbable wall to reach the first section; enemies can be ignored here. Continue to the other side to find a grapple hook leading to the second section. After climbing another wall to the top, you’ll find the datapad atop a bell shrine.
  3. Snowy Wells (Stoneblood Forest)
    To reach Snowy Wells, parkour across platforms while under fire. At the Safehouse, grapple to another hill on the right side, climb the platforms on the mountain, and glide toward a nearby generator to collect the datapad. Glide back and secure the location once done.
  4. The Nightcap (Windspear)
    Situated inside a cave in the right corner of Windspear, The Nightcap is one of the easiest Safehouses to unlock. Upon entering, find a climbable wall on the left, ascend to the top, then glide to the ledge containing the datapad. The door below should then open, allowing you to claim the Safehouse.

Carcadia Burn Region

  1. Makeshift Chalet (Lopside)
    The first Safehouse upon entering Carcadia Burn from Fadefields. The location is heavily guarded by The Order faction. To find the datapad, go to the left side of the large building with a big antenna. Jump down and locate the key on a box. Use a grapple spot and climbable wall nearby to return to the top and secure the Safehouse.
  2. The Lowrise (Tonnage Peel)
    Near the Crumbled Lurch Ancient Crawler, access The Lowrise via a grapple point on a broken pipe near an “Out of Order” board. Maneuver across the platforms to reach the Safehouse. The datapad is on a broken piece of concrete hanging by a metal rod to the left of the building.
  3. Wildhorns Beard (Ruined Sumplands)
    Located on a large island separated by a broken bridge, Wildhorns Beard is a rundown Safehouse seldom used due to better fast travel points nearby. To find the datapad, navigate around a large hill and locate a Kratch nest. Retrieve the required item and return to the ruined building to unlock the Safehouse.

Timekeepers Dominion Region

  1. The Lockaway (Carcadia District)
    Part of the Falling Wall quest unlocked after defeating the main bosses of the first three regions. The Electi faction leader, Levaine, guides you here to use the Safehouse as a base. The entrance is hidden behind a hologram of Timekeeper—look for a grapple hook there. Follow stairs to the top and find the datapad on a table.
  2. The Food Court (Terminus District)
    Entering the Terminus District by crossing the district wall, find The Food Court on the left after exiting the door. The area is infested with Ripper faction enemies—defeat them to safely activate the terminal. The datapad is located on top of a garbage dump near the Evolving Chili food stall, while the activation terminal is near the “All You Can Eat” sign.
  3. Sumpview Falls (Fades District)
    The final Safehouse you unlock, accessible only after advancing through Plan Z of the main story quest. Located centrally in the Fades District inside a small drainage ditch. The datapad is inside a small wall opening—use the ladder to climb up and retrieve it.

That covers all fourteen Safehouses in Borderlands 4. While other fast travel points exist, such as the Order Silos, Safehouses are spread widely across the map, offering quick travel access to multiple pivotal locations.

Mom Thought Husband Was Getting Son To Sleep, Then She Checked The Babycam

When a new mom put her husband in charge of their son’s bedtime, she assumed it would all go to plan. Bedtime can often be a struggle for both kids and parents. In 2024, the C. S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health found that around 1 in 4 parents (27 percent) experienced difficulties in getting their child to bed.

Dalinna, a stay-at-home mom based in Connecticut, has certainly endured some struggles with her 8-month-old son, Mateo. “Lately, he’s been very attached to me and hasn’t been sleeping very well,” she told *Newsweek*. Eager to break the cycle, one recent night Dalinna asked her husband to put Mateo to bed, hoping the change would bring about a better result.

“Sometimes Mateo sleeps with him, sometimes he doesn’t,” she explained.

On that particular night, it initially looked like her plan had worked. “It seemed quiet, and my husband didn’t bring Mateo out of the room,” Dalinna said. “I had been cooking for a while, and both of them were still in the room, so I checked the camera.”

That was when she discovered the truth: Mateo wasn’t asleep at all. Not only that, he was playing games with his dad, who appeared happy to indulge his son despite the late hour.

“When I saw what was happening, I laughed, it was so cute. I really thought he was trying to put him to sleep,” Dalinna recalled.

Dalinna ended up posting footage of what she saw that night on the baby monitor to her TikTok account, @momlife.dalinnaz. An onscreen caption read: “When daddy say
