WASHINGTON: (Sep 15) A US federal judge has temporarily blocked a Trump administration new rule that would impose stricter limits on how long foreign students and journalists can study or work in America.

The decision by the Massachusetts district judge on Monday will bring some relief to international students, including many from India and has came one day before it was to come into effect.

The judge ruled that the new policy would probably cause “catastrophic” damage to the US economy and higher-education system, rejecting the government’s claims that it was needed to protect the country.
