Stop worrying, as this is a rare case! The BHCs in India knows that this is the case for most of the banks, for duplic...

Please confirm from your friend whose visa got rejected for submitting dot matrix bank statements which were stamped and signed what were exact grounds (in verbatim) of rejection. Ya true.
