Indian Passport is quite powerful, of I talk about the passport index, it is at 82 number where it has easy visa access to 62 countries. But still it is in the lower rank because it takes a lot of effort to get the visa for big countries. It is mainly because India is a developing country and the pay is not that great for most of the people. And people want to come out of the country legally or illegally to get settle in developed countries.

I know this is bad, really bad coming from an India, but that's the fact. Less than 5% people in India pays direct tax and thus since so many people are under poverty lines means the government have to spent considerable amount of money for giving 2 times food to the poor people. And thus the reason there is no much money left for development. If the direct tax payers increases the burden on the government will be reduced and thus we will see the growth in no time.
And not only that we have Reservation too, people who are earning good are still getting good reservation. It is based on what is your caste and not what is your income status. And because of so many problems as well as the grass is greener syndrome people want to go out. But the problem is legally it is quite tough for most of the people to get passport and visa and thus a lot of people travel illegally. And this is the reason the passport index is low here in India.
The process of getting a Passport is little tricky too, like if you have passed class 10 it is easy because you have to show certain documents but if you are not passed class 10, even if you got the Passport by somehow the problem comes when you apply for visa because you have to literally be present for visa application.
In my case I have traveled to London, Dubai and I have a visa of USA but didn't visited yet might be later but still getting a visa as a professional is not a problem here. And when you are into IT, getting USA visa is little tough but again all other visas are like a cakewalk when you have a valid reason to travel. For me the US visa was also a cakewalk because I have traveled to London and Dubai previously and I only applied for Buisness Visa.
