Brain Drain!

There's a lot of talk, only sometimes, about a phenomenon called 'BRAIN DRAIN'. I think it's simply the migration of Indian students to foreign countries and the problem faced by India due to the same. The problem cited by the Indian government is that there is a lot of money, in the order of crores, lost due to this process. This is what we call the Brain Drain. The loss is the amount of money spent in training these students in technical fields in India. I don't know how many people are aware of this, but I came to know of this pretty recently and this irked my mind quite a bit!
Everything has two sides, and this time - the government and the students!

It's always easy to say the wrong things, so I will start with that. According to Mr.Ramesh, IITs are not world-class. True. Think about other colleges then. Come to Tamil Nadu, or any state for that matter; you can find college names which can't be spelled correctly even in Latin. If instis like Anna University cannot be maintained high class by the so-called philanthropic and not-needed-to-mention rich Government, how can we expect students in other top colleges to REMAIN in TN or even India, after studying?
Some students are passionate about MS and research. I don't know why but MS is always antonymous with India. There's no MS in India. I have no idea why.

There are a lot of B-Schools in India, not many come to the top 100 in the world. We need at least a decent number keeping the Under Graduate population in mind. Not just a NUMBER! So... MBA - outside India.
There's always GATE for M.Tech in India. Somehow, M.Tech is always synonymous with 'teaching'. I may be wrong, but ... ask the students! :) Also, the fact that is always sidelined is that, M.Tech is not a specialization! Also, not many opportunities available IMMEDIATELY after M.Tech. Reasons enough for not many passionate M.Teching! "Students are intelligent!"
I really wonder if the bureaucrats ("the men who matter") have ever visited foreign Universities. I am sure they travel abroad, but Universities? I don't think so. Their children do study outside (I am sure they don't slog it out in Anna!), but they are irrelevant here. IITs, as far as infrastructure, facilities, and more importantly, ATMOSPHERE is concerned, DOESN'T even need to be commented! (I have been to IIT-K and I got to say, I love SRM and VIT more!)
I wish politicians wore formal shirts and full trousers and gave everything a thought, with laptops and internet connectivity!
"Desire is the root cause of misery"

Okay, let's come to the students. It's evident that students want to make money. But no one really WANTS to go abroad. It's just that we are NEEDED to go abroad due to lack of 'chances' here. Vitamin-M apart, if India is really good, no one will go out!
If India has the BALLS (if you don't understand what balls are, mail me :D) to remove / limit reservation to agreeable levels, India will definitely improve. Mr.Ambedkar was right.... Right when he lived. We have not moved with the times. And that's the reason why India is still what it is!
"This is the main main reason for the migration!"
Look at the number of "affected people" in the US, that's why there's a lot of Classical Music in Cleveland and Ohio! You fools, they would have been here if not for the reservations! Don't put reservation in anything and everything. College admissions, Cricket team, Jobs, PG Studies, Entrance exams, everything! No exception, but for public transport (Thank God!).
If you want to give education for all, spare a thought for the Arts Colleges too! Why only Engineering and Medicine? If there's an answer for this question, reservation MAY be justified to a little extent. Only little! I don't think there's any counselling for Arts, Science, Humanities and Hotel Management colleges!

"Every living thing!"

There's another thing to consider. It is indeed true that many foreign students (NRIs are negligible) who come to India for academic purposes. However, it does not contribute to the overall globalization of our nation. The magnitude of Brain Drain is much large compared to incoming students of this sort.

On the whole, students can of course be criticized a little bit for ambitiously going abroad after studying, without thinking about the motherland. On the other hand, the harsh reality is that most of these students have no option but to go out!
The Government is fully responsible for this. There's nothing wrong in stating the truth. Upper caste people have already had enough tough times to cope with here. There are limits to endurance too. Moving out of India is the best option. After some decades, there will be very few left here. US or UK may well be our addresses. It's not all that smooth anywhere. Yes. d'accord! It's not going to be easy out there too. But it's definitely NOT WORTH being here for quality education, in this wretched system!
Nowadays, it's getting worse. There are talks about reservations right from LKG in all government and affiliated schools. If this is the case, we are not sending healthy signals to the kids. Also to the "deprived" open competition...
"Long live India"

Kabaddi World Cup champions go home by auto rickshaw

Hours after they won the World Cup with a thumping victory over England, Indian women Kabaddi players were seen on the streets waiting for auto rickshaw to reach home. The players who made the country proud on Sunday were badly treated by their team management. The players were not provided conveyance to reach their home.

Moreover, the game officials didn’t even pay the hotel bills on time leading to the embarrassment of the players. While checking out, the players were stopped by the hotel staff for non payment of their food bills.

The arrangements for the stay of players were made in Park Plaza hotel. According to the hotel officials, food bill worth Rs 22,000 was due on the players which the game officials hadn’t paid. The players were made to wait at the hotel reception for two hours and were allowed to check out only after their bills were paid.

Punjab Sports Director Pargat Singh said the arrangements for the kabaddi players were made by the organising committee. “We fulfilled all the demands made by the team management. If the players faced an inconvenient it’s the responsibility of the team management,” said Singh.

After checking out, the players, with prize in their hand, were seen standing on the streets waiting for public transport. Most of them went their home walking. 

Players told that they had to spend the entire week in one pair of clothes as their luggage got burnt in the bus accident ahead of the semi0final clash. The team management didn’t arrange for fresh pair of clothes for the players.

Save the Indian Rupee!*

YOU CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS:-

Please spare a couple of minutes here for the sake of India.

I got this article from one of my friend s , but it's true. I can see this in day to day life.

Here's a small example:-

Before 12 months 1 US $ = IND Rs 39
After 12 months, now 1 $ = IND Rs 50

Do you think US Economy is booming? No, but Indian Economy is Going Down.

Our economy is in your hands....

INDIAN economy is in a crisis. Our country like many other ASIAN countries, is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation.

More than 30,000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages, etc... which are grown, produced and consumed here.

A cold drink that costs only 70 / 80 paisa to produce, is sold for Rs.9 and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy.

We have nothing against Multinational companies, but to protect our own interestsm we request everybody to use INDIAN products only atleast for the next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the Rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future.

What you can do about it?

1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.
2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause.....

Each individual should become a leader for this awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don't need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product.

All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

Every INDIAN product you buy makes a big difference. It saves INDIA. Let us take a firm decision today.

BUY INDIAN TO BE INDIAN - We are not against of foreign products.

WE ARE NOT ANTI-MULTINATIONAL. WE ARE TRYING TO SAVE OUR NATION. EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE FOR A REAL FREEDOM. WE ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCE AFTER LOSING MANY LIVES.
THEY DIED PAINFULLY TO ENSURE THAT WE LIVE PEACEFULLY. THE CURRENT TREND IS VERY THREATENING.

MULTINATIONALS CALL IT GLOBALIZATION OF INDIAN ECONOMY. FOR INDIANS LIKE YOU AND ME, IT IS RE-COLONIZATION OF INDIA. THE COLONIST'S LEFT INDIA THEN. BUT THIS TIME, THEY WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.

WHO WOULD LIKE TO LET A "GOOSE THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS" SLIP AWAY?

PLEASE REMEMBER: POLITICAL FREEDOM IS USELESS WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE

RUSSIA, S.KOREA, MEXICO - THE LIST IS VERY LONG!! LET US LEARN FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE AND FROM OUR HISTORY. LET US DO THE DUTY OF EVERY TRUE INDIAN.

FINALLY, IT'S OBVIOUS THAT YOU CAN'T GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE. SO GIVE UP AT LEAST ONE ITEM FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY!

"LITTLE DROPS MAKE A GREAT OCEAN."

PLEASE TRY TO BE AN INDIAN.....
