I came to The USA in 2016. Worked in Mumbai for a few years before that. All things aside, I know I was living weekend life there. Used to leave home at 8 am to only come back 9-10 pm. Because of the bad roads, traffic and what not. After coming to US, I realized that your job is not supposed to be your life. There's so much more to it. Now I get time for kids, family and even my hobbies post work hours. Not just on weekends but also on weekdays. Also, I couldn't put more emphasis on the working environment being so much better here. I realized that people aren't looking at you as a machine but they really care about your well-being. Whereas back in India, bosses won't even hesitate calling you late hours or weekends to ask about different kind of statuses, reports and stuff. That master-slave mentality is rooted deep in our systems, both private and government. Don't want to bash my country, I just love India. But things said in here are too biased and straight up calling NRIs like they don't know anything about working there. Peace ✌🏼😇
As a recent NRI, just moved to US in 2018, aged 27 currently, i have couple of things to add. Its just not about opportunities in India. I have lived in Bangalore all my life. I agree that opportunities are increasing in India overall. But its the quality of life US/Canada/Australia provides to the people. In US we pay 27%-32% tax here, and we get best roads, free education for kids till 12th, and the quality of life. But in India we pay 20% tax, and what for? Potholes in roads, floods everywhere in monsoon, they put a new road today and after a week its dug up for something else, traffic(which can be ok if we use publix transport), and edication is soo expensive, and government schools are not worth going to fir students. On top of all this, we have to struggle for everything(doctors, lowyers, policemen) for whom we have to bribe for everything. I am saying this because i have experienced it myself as i bought a home in bangalore 5 months back, and the amount of bribes i had to give to officials just to do their job is just hilarious. I have never bribed anyone in US to get my job done!! As an NRI, i value my time over money. If a task gets done in 1 week by bribing 1lakh rupees, thats fine with me than wasting my 1-2 months of time. 5 years back, if i had to do this, i could not afford to bribe 1 lakh. Everyone else may not have this luxury. And the reason for me to come to US to do my Masters was reservations amd quotas. Even though i was talented enough, i did not get education in the college i wanted because of reservation system. And the same thing happened during Jobs after undergrad. As a teenager, you obviously get the thought that if i am not being respected here, then i will go to a place where my skills are valued. And considering these, i would still say, india is moving in the right direction, baby steps are taken, but still a very long way to go.
I have worked in Bangalore. I agree that there are many opportunities in Bangalore but the pathetic traffic and infrastructure in Bangalore is the most depressing part. The metro started in 2008 and still it is still not reached a proper 30-40%. Both BJP & Congress governments have come and gone but people are suffering
Well bangalore's auto walas and olas and ubers are also pathetic. They have great roads compared to Mumbai which is sad for me as a mumbaikar but the local population is not well educated to equip and upgrade themselves as per the needs of the newly migrated population.
@@ronak212 local population are well educated. I know some autowala and Uber drivers go off board many a times but there is no need to upgrade themselves for the new migrant. The new migrant should realize that they are a migrant and they are entering another city with another culture and system. When you enter someone else’s house, you need to respect and follow the rules of that house rather than asking them to follow your way.
By that logic, the entire government of India should resign since they already have a lot of money and they can settle in America and Europe to live a more comfortable life.
I'm not sure, I heard "this is the best time to be a young indian" back in 2002, and then again in 2005. I believe what this guy is saying but that time has not come yet, maybe in another 3 or 4 years as the US dollar will most probably get weaker and the economic incentive to come here will be a lot less. My dad left India back in the 60s with the hope he'd move back, but that never happened. Having said that Modi really put India to the international stage that's for sure. When I was a kid the reputation of India was so bad that I used to ashamed to tell my classmates my parents came from India, now because of Modi every person of Indian origin is proud to announce they are from India!
Bangalore has two issues - low FSI which prevents tall buildings and terrible infra (roads / water / electricity). Also, average kannada person is more hostile than marathi manoos and forces everyone to learn kannada. Its better to live in places like gujarat where locals want to make money and not force everyone to learn gujarati. Imagine ppl from 100 nations forced to learn kannada to bargain with autowallahs, lol.
India has people, talent and compassion to make things happen. However, discipline is missing. Compare China or other Asian nations, we should accept our mistakes and raise higher. Our political system, finance, governance are all super old. Change boldly and see how it works. Lastly, keep media and legal under control, not sell them to private firms. US, UK are still inflating our exchange and making us poor, many countries are richer than these two. There is nothing much left in the English world!
The problem is that Indians love anything that isn't Indian. They are ready to leave India rather than face the problems head on. All the other countries progressed because they worked together. People are selfish here, they don't want to do anything for the country
I can’t speak for all NRI’s but I feel one of the biggest impediment to return to India especially for an NRI like me with school going kids is their education in Public schools in India. I hear stories and I know lot of cases where the private school education is so expensive. I’m curious to know what is currently being done by the government to raise the level of quality of education in Public schools and also to attract/convince parents to join their kids in Public schools. Thanks
As an Indian, I'm glad we're discussing India's infrastructure development, although the reverse brain drain hasn't started. It may take a decade to match Western countries, but the conversations indicate progress.
If you send your kids to public school these days since Biden been in the office watch your kids do drugs at very young age and learn about sexual orientation crap! No education nth they are not teaching kids anything these days in public schools. Also talking about school shootings they happen in public schools! They don’t put this on news because this whole damn country runs under democrats!
I'm a young NRI from Australia, and yes I agree to what you guys discussed, I'm optimistic about India, and planning to move back and contribute to my motherland ASAP! ❤ And one thing is for sure, Modi government has succeeded in transforming India heavily in the last 8-9 years, making proud to be a part of the Indian diaspora!!
So much work occurs by remote after covid. 1.Create a voluntary database/ platform of nri s . Can contribute expertise. 2. Give nri s jobs in government including civil / foreign service. Consider it like a football club with overseas players coming in. Just the varied experience alone will bring a new dimension in. 3. Watch the magic occur!
I think the reason behind going back to India is a very personal one ..unless there is a strong financial or family reason it’s a rarity that anyone wants to go back…but to that small minority who does have that mindset kudos to them !!!
The key thing that discourages NRIs from coming to India is everything that you get for granted in western countries but dont see in India, starting from not just salary, but good work culture, good infra, streamlined government related work without having to pay bribe to someone, safety of women and so many such other issues.
It’s funny how the whole discussion was about IT sector only. They are lots of other sectors such as Civil, Electrical, Chemical Engineers etc. who want to return to India but just can’t because of low salaries. I heard the companies are still offering same pay range as they used to offer in 2014 when I graduated from my bachelor’s and came to US for Masters. I have friends here who came to US because they were victims of reservation quota in cutoffs, promotion etc. Some just couldn’t start the business because of long tiring papertrail and bribe at every step to clear the process, some for exceptionally low salaries in non-IT sectors etc. Banks are not interested in promoting younger generations of non-IT sector to provide loans for MSME sectors. They are fine giving loans to people like Malya etc. I would say with India’s current leadership, we are on a right path but are not just there yet to convince that Indian diaspora. Jai Hind!
I left Europe and came back to India.. now earning multiple lacs a month,, I tell you India is the market ..you just need to have a good service / product . - De merit.. traffic and pollution.
Sundar Pichai, an outsider can be CEO of US’s tech giant. How many Indian companies have such talent centric open culture. can you imagine Ambanis letting someone else be CEO.
That shows common man can be rich like Ambanis and not a slave of the deep state Unlike the Us of A Wow so much conditioned brainwashing you have been through Pichai can be a Ambani here. Hypocrisy is thy name
Did natarajan chandrasekharan not become the chairman of Tata? Air India is headed by a foreigner so is tata technologies. How come is it impossible? You're only finding reasons to stay abroad
If you try to name few more, you would not go beyond handful of exceptions. But if you check in US, more than half of the billion-dollar startups in the US, known as unicorns, had at least one immigrant founder.
I m Indian-American here. US derp state mega-tech companies hiring Indian CEOs has a sinister purpose as well. They r creating next generation of brown coolies for the neo-imperialist project to colonise India. Social media, traditional media NGOs is the new way to lord over the world n exploit the global south.
I can very confidently say it is not only about opportunity or money. The work culture, work life balance , system everything together make people taking decision of leaving. I love my country but it is fact
So most of the IT people in bangalore work as an offshore employees for companies in US. For that job they are paid 8-9 LPA if they’re lucky. For the same job their salary starts with 60 LPA in US and I am talking about starting salary…
There is this internal bureaucracy within the workplace such as rewarding those who work late hours while we all know that it is inefficiency at best when some one takes more than 8 hours . I left India when I was put into projects not worthy because I got married and when I became pregnant I was asked to do testing while I have been a developer until then . This systemic discrimination to women because of males few years older than me thought that I need a break without hearing a single word from me. India is modern by outlook but deep rooted discrimination still exists and they are carried happily by those who are privileged to carry .
There is no doubt future of india is bright but we can’t wait till that future to come, we have only limited time life. So seeing that future, May be we will not be there. It’s better to live in present n live in country who is already futuristic.
Just remember the problem with India is that 20 percent wants to rise and the 80% want to pull down. So decide who will win. Many fools are not realizing that the nation is only prospering in artificial economics.
The job of the minister is to paint a rosy picture. One of the words he used “making -hawa”, apt description of his narrative. All we hear is “exciting time”, “opportunity, “great potential” , blah blah. Ground reality is much different. Just look at the unemployment rates of Indian youths. There are jobs in metros, but population lives in tier two cities and villages. If you have jobless youths, history shows only Revolution is the outcome.
Good but some way still to go . Everyone should have the freedom and confidence to work in wherever they choose to . Please do not demonise or pull up those who have gone abroad, not everyone should stay put. Young people , do what you want to , let no one curb for spirits ❤
One of the other issues with Indian IT firms is that they have no concept of educating employees on diversity and inclusion and by DEI I did not mean womens in workforce, I guess we have made great progress their in last few years. It is employees who comes under LGBTQ umbrella, divorced man and woman, single man/woman post 35 year age. These audience is very vulnerable in Indian IT industry. Most of the talents coming in IT sector is coming from small towns. These folks have no education about lgbtq and in most instances made fun of the lgbtq friends in college and schools. Since Indian education system is all about competition, a lot of lgbtq employees face hard time at work since their peers use sexual orientation as a way to put their LGBTQ colleagues down. Education is needed in Indian IT companies to end the mindsets of competitions which a lot of folks graduating from educational institute brings along with them. I tell you my own experience when I was graduating from collage, I had a friend in my hostel who used to beat me up on the day of exams and shout me by names like chkkas specially during the time of exams since he knew that these actions kills my confidence and that was the only way for my friend to score higher score than me since he was not able to compete with me fairly. A lot of my other friends in hostel used same way to put me down. I can give you examples of Indians graduating from Americans university forcing their gay friends out of apartments and being very discriminatory at work in us companies. For these same Indians, it is not an issue for other LGBTQ Americans to be LGBTQ and these same Indians try to lick their foots but when an Indian colleague of theirs try to keep their personal life Private, these narcissistic straight Indian IT staff use that as an avenue to put their LGBTQ Indian peers down. It is not a specific or personal issue but it is happening at a large extent in Indian IT companies. It is surprising that a lot of my Indian co-workers working in USA don't know what LGBTQ means and they thinks the rainbow logo of company corresponds to monsoon season in India. HR needs to take LGBTQ education seriously. A large chunks of LGBTQ Indian crowd lives outside India and works as reputed professors and CEOs. In many cases they ruin their life and a woman's life by succumbing to pressures from peers for getting married.
Irrespective of whether these big MNC want to open shop in India, there is too much corruption from top to bottom. Way too populated. For those reasons quite a few Indian Americans don’t return.
Nobody wanted them here anyway. India actually invested in them by providing them education so they can do something in return to the country but they fled as like nirav modi and mallaya did with the loans. And some of them have the audacity to criticize india.omg i feel offended when i see these creatures are alive without dying
it is worth noting that India has traditionally been one of the largest recipients of remittances globally, with a significant portion coming from NRIs. According to the World Bank's Migration and Development Brief, in 2020, India received an estimated $83 billion in remittances, making it the top recipient country. No need of guilt tripping nri’s. They are in a way contributing to Indian economy.
Haha... I am laughing seeing @prakashD-sj5jz comment. We invested our life, time and taxes to India. When we don't get what we deserve because of quota, corruption, bribery, no free education to kids, we leave and find a place where our skills are valued. India did not provide free education like here in US, to say that India invested in us by providing education. And FYI, NRI's contribute to Indian economy by sending money, which goes to Forex reserves. So, check your facts and then speak.
Fundamental mistake .. It’s not American Indians .. it is Indian Americans .. American Indians are the natives … not expected by a channel like this ..
India will be a place where they can pay for 5 staff members for the price of 2. The west has MUCH better infrastructure and India is not investing in the right places. You can't create that compelling arguments when you don't invest. The Engineering uncles who came in the 90s are no longer there, because while access to talent was great in India the marketplace and infrastructure issues weren't worth it. Hence why he keeps pointing out retired.
Its not the lack of opportunity that drives brain drain, its the ease of life that makes people to move away!. Work life is an example, just interview someone who had been on site aboard and back in India, they know the difference! I say it in BOLD, its not the lack opportunity its ease of life!. By the way people set up companies in India because its cheap labor and milder regulations! We say how India is respected abroad and blah blah blah, but still make us stand in que for visas!
It's very soothing to hear all this dialogues and offers. Once you get into doing something in India you will know the reality. One small hurdle or delay, your banker will turn against you first. Then the whole system will turn against you. You will have to go through hell then. NPA ! No money, no support not even the ministry will come up with a helping hand, to mention they won't even respond to our grievances and desperate call for help. We are struggling with our Ethanol manufacturing plant in Karnataka. I'm an young upcoming Industrialist, following the foot steps of my late Father, he was an Industrialist, a visionary, a great honest man who suffered and struggled, and finally lost his life without seeing his dream project coming into life. All because he wanted to build a great public limited organisation to provide numerous jobs and livelihood to the talented, poor and the needy. He wanted to develop the whole region. To bring prosperity and stability to the masses and of course to contribute in a big way to support our economy, by spending, investing crores and crores of money ! Hmm. It is what it is ! First Help the needy, support the struggling, instead of marketing to lure in new businesses and entrepreneurs. encouraging new entrepreneurs and industries and startups are good but what about the ones who are facing challenges and suffering with their ongoing businesses? Ridiculous man. This will never happen in USA or other countries, now that's the difference. Take it from me, as I discuss with top level bankers in India as well as overseas.! Put me in a podcast, I will explain the reality.!
You know seeing you talk about this. I remember what Ratan Tata said in an interview He said: "for all those people who think that India is a difficult place to do business, we are a shining example of a company that survived a difficult business environment and today are one of the most successful companies in the country " The reason why America is successful is because their people worked hard through tough times, through great depression to become one of the largest economies in the world It takes effort, lots of effort to be an industrialist, there are a whole host of challenges but it is very much doable, Dhirubhai Ambani also built his business from scratch. If they can, so can you but it is certainly not easy. Yet it is very rewarding
@@valetudan234 Absolutely man nothing is easy ! Nothing is free. Don't judge ! You sound like some salaried guy dreaming of becoming a businessman, like Ambani or something. My Point is, govt & authorities are supposed to primarily support the struggling on-going projects, which are very much alive and viable & with a huge potential to create jobs, and support the economy rather than going around marketing about the ease of doing business and reverse brain drain and urging new entrepreneurs to emerge ! Come on ! That's absurd. Focus more on revival. I'm sure you have no idea about all this. You only know about the Tatas and Ambanis, typical Indian 🤷🏻♂️ we have taken humongous risk to build this industry from the scratch. With that said,I have nothing to prove nor explain to people like you. BJP govt has indeed changed the whole scenario of Indian economy for good by introducing and bringing up so many amendments to the administration, rules and regulations. However, like the Counsel-Genaral of Japan stated during GIM conference in Bangalore, "Unfortunately after the single window clearance, there are so many other windows to be cleared which people are not aware of and that's when things get bumpy" sad reality. We are a living example of it. Still we never gave up, I don't give up, we will do it no matter what ! It's our purpose, and ultimate responsibility to implement this mighty project, to give justice to an honest man, a visionary who dedicated his life for this.
The job of the Minister is to paint a rosy picture. When people see past their empty boasting, and ask questions, they can give excuses and blame it on the NRI and brain drain.
Good point. USA had reservations in college admissions till jow. The Supreme Court struck it down only this week. Hopefully it gives indian milords the guts to do the same in India. Since they copy US UK in everything else.
I m indian american n was bout to say the same. But another thought crossed my mind. Calling us "Indian Americans" is only legit from american POV. From POV of Indians in India, calling us "American Indian" makes more sense. May be it will help us gain narrative control?
The best ways to actually ensure talent come back to india is giving them tax concessions and investment benefits where we would be happy to bring our money back and invest in india
True, albeit only a portion of it. All these applies for tech development. Biotech innovation has miles to go before anything significant happens. I hope it does but it is not a piece of cake.
Shashi tharoor also came back from USA and he was born in UK, well another one bites the dust. Oh well after Modi became Prime minister the recent United States customs and border patrol, the amount of Indians who became citizens and got rid of Indian citizenship is so high.
Standard of living is not good right now..that's one of the reason people living India or not coming back. Too much population, not so good infrastructure, corruption etc..
Standard of living will not be that good after de-dollarization happens in the US and other western nations. By 2029, 1 USD will be just 3 INR and i am sure people like you would be standing in line to get back to India regardless of good infrastructure or not. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Standard of living is great in cities like Hyderabad, Pune, Navi Mumbai, etc. In these past few years, post pandemic, there has been a surge in infrastructure across all cities in the subcontinent. Since the Modi government has reigned this country for the past 9 years, corruption has significantly reduced. Is there still work to be done to reach a “developed country” tag, yes, but are we much closer to that target than before, absolutely!
@@rushilvankamamidi7729 It would be too much to say, it's great but it's decent or good but in comparison with developed nations; it will always remain pale. I have lived in Pune so I know. But anyways recent infrastructure boom need to be appreciated. Ground level corruption is there, it hasn't decreased a bit or just decreased nominally due to technological advancements. 65% of our population lives in rural India and situation is more terrible in there. Hope situation changes in couple of decades.
@@pratik6342 whatever May be the case, India is on the rise now more than ever and in the next 60 years, India will be top. Take that as you will, but India is now stronger than ever.
People talk about horrible work culture of India but at the same time they will watch video of Elon musk saying that he worked 16-18 hours per day. Today's "US" work culture is the product of hard work done by a lot of people in late 1990 and early 2000. India is developing nation with high number of young population. Businesses will demand a lot of work from you because we are at developing stage. Lack of infrastructure is a big problem but you cannot compare it with the US because India faces very different problems than the US. Things will change but not in 5-10 years. It will take whole generation but it will change.
correct reason to emigrate is maybe work life balance. and emigrating will improve your future familys quality of life. most people watching this probably don't have start ups. Having said that there sensible reasons to live in india
@@valetudan234 You have to witness how engineers are treated outside and then see them in India I'm not saying engineers aren't talented I'm saying they are treated like fools
@@AlexRogers4U i am an engineering student, so i think I know what I'm talking about The reality of India is that there's an engineering college in every street, it's not hard to "get" an engineering degree, but what is hard is to get into a good engineering college, get a good exposure and then at the end, to be an engineer Holding a BTech degree doesn't make one an engineer, millions of them have it, you need to have the knowledge of an engineer to truly qualify as one. The main problem in India is that the education system produces a few good engineers while the vast majority is unskilled with worthless degrees The problem is much of the qualified talent leaves india, not because they are treated like shit, but because they find opportunities elsewhere. I am not asking you to not go for opportunities outside India, but unless that top talent comes back and makes a change back home, nothing would change, the top talent has the potential to create jobs in India. Instead we see them complaining more. It may seem daring to take a risk, come back to India and then start a company, but who knows? It could be worth it. Top talent isn't treated like shit in India, engineers aren't treated like shit, the problem is that engineers aren't creating opportunities for everyone else, choosing to escape rather than face the problem head on
BJP govt had 5 years to sort out infrastructure issues in bangalore. Karnataka. And they did nothing about traffic jams, floods, pollution. All they did was talk about tipu sultan, emotional and senti issues. Once ur out of constituency. Nobody cares for all these emotional issues. Especially when ur out of india. Now they r doing chest thumping that india is the center for investment. It's better to let ur actions do the talking. Modi ji has no doubt done a lot. But the system remains unchanged. Foundation is still very lethargic, none of the foot soldiers have his vision, hunger for growth, keen to be on top of the world. All they r worried about is their own seat, petty politics within BJP, and keep talking about emotional issues. Unless Modiji and rss does some fundamental shake up of this mindset. We r still far far behind the world stage.
Agree with u. But I will still stick with bjp n modi. Others r worse. Regarding roads in banglore. Its a travesty. IMHO roads in banglore will never get better. Due to limitations of terrain n pre-built areas. All indian cities have the same problem. Its better to build a new planned city from scratch nearby than to improve an existing city. I think govt should rather create new planned n modern tier 2 cities n encourage ppl to move there from tier 1 cities.
All things kept aside, the biggest reason for a talented person to move abroad is Indian Reservation!!!!!!!!. India cannot give the same level of opportunities and work environment as Canada/USA till the time RESERVATION is there.
Not gonna happen. Due to limitations imposed by terrain n pre-built areas. Most Indian cities have the same problem. Its better to build a new city from scratch nearby rather than improve existing cities.b
But you are missing the point. In the west there is high inflation, high interest rates and impending de-dollarization which also means capital trimming (reduction in salary levels by 50%, defense spending and pension etc). It also means, 1USD equals just 3 INR by 2029. So, regardless of problems in INDIA, there will be no financial incentive to go to the west.
@@indianmilitary No you are missing the point - my point was'nt about financial incentive. Indians create a toxic work culture. Indian bosses are inhuman at over working employees and underpaying them because they want to make money by squeezing employees and not creating value. West?? We are talking US here. There is no inflation, In the last 5 years Gas price has not changed still at $2.xx cents. Burgers and Chicken Wings are as cheap as they have always been. There are always more jobs than people. BRICS so far has not put a dent on the $. Even if 1$ is equalt to 1 INR , the living conditions and happiness index , work life balance is way higher in the US. Indian Corporate culture is toxic, filled with nepotism and unfair conditions. Indian bosses are cheap , they favor saving a buck over hiring someone high quality. For them, It will always be win business by selling cheap and who pays the price?? - the employees.
Culture is established when too many people are following it. It is not set in stone, the next generation can change the culture but they won't because they prefer leaving rather than facing problems If the Chinese, Japanese and the Koreans had the same mentality as NRIs then they wouldn't have ever progressed
@@valetudan234 People like us have been screwed over by Indian Bosses so much that we have nothing to give. Only abundance can eradicate greed and jealousy. If Indians were that noble, brave and fair we would have never been conquered ever in the first place.
He is talking about Indians who have no green card people come to this country not only for money but better life for them and their kids.people who have made million are not coming back to India you think guy who has not made😢 million will come back Indians will stop coming here when 1$=40r And it will happen in next 5 to10 years
Maybe. Probably. This narrative speaks to the assumption and “reality” that all Indians want to/should pursue STEM. Ranveer says, “successful entrepreneurs in India can attract the tech talent back // MS AI (degrees that can be studied only in abroad).” Question for you, @Ranveer: What about artists? If an artist isn’t expressing Indian philosophies and/or religious themes, and Indian themes the artist isn’t really relevant.
You guys must’ve smoked up something that people here in the US don’t have access to. Name 1 Indian research scholar worth their salt in AI? That’s right. No one. Keep the dream alive everyone !!
The funny thing is spend all the money to go abroad because the govt failed to provide govt education at fundamental level. Provide good education for tax payers then brain drain will reduce
Why are we always talk in broad terms like bangalore is growing india is growing if you see at individual level no ones giving a shit about it in america people are earning more money period … now you are talking about AI tesla big names but majority people dont even understand it .. and those people can simply do job in USA and earn more money and live a comfortable life … this india is growing shit really doesnt work to a middle class person who just wants to earn for his family
Jim Keller doesn't have any startup founded in India. Both Tenstorrent and Atomic Semi companies that he founded are in US. Tenstorrent does have office only one office in Banglore but many more in US and other countries. Typical BJP minister painting all rosy picture and cunningly hiding reality.
Lol. No one is coming to india. 😂😂 Since last 400 yra india invented only one thing that is UPI. Due to less salary no one wants to live in india. Onky baniya businesses, reserved category, Govn employees and bhikari want to live in india
Then I think you haven't followed the trend the millanares living India decreased from last year from 6500 to 5000. So don't just speak without reading data.
Dear Ranveer, only the best Indians, professionally, would stay back in the US and the rest would be ejected as always has been the case. Go West is the only slogan a man worth his salt remembers. I am a German national of Indian ethnicity for 25 years and there has never been a day that I have missed India or Indian life. Decades ago, I had the opportunity and fled from India and started dumping my Indianness wherever I could and I now believe that any Indian who becomes professionally a success shall have the same thought.
I can put out simply what u are : u are the one who don't have guts and will to survive in india and fled to Germany. are you professionally successful? obviously you wouldn't have reached that without the education ( it is the basis) that you obtained from india. I think it is total waste of india's resources that provided you education.

Very typical, biased views. Such simplistic views are what makes one dimentional discussion about what human capital can do to a country. 1. People who immigrate do not just stay there or come back for the opportunity or lack of it. You build a life where you go, you belong, you build your community, it is not just 'coz you can have a good job or not. This is basic human nature. 2. Ministers can beat the drums as much they can, only who experience know the difference in quality of life. 3. No, people who are abroad do not only go and join big companies and do donkey work. Go check the number of startups and execs in big companies alike. Indians have heavy presence. It is very juvenile argument to point out layoffs by meta and google, it is part and parcel of every business nothing to do about a country. 4. People of a country controbuting doesnt have to be only by them dropping everything and coming back. That argument is very narrow minded and not grounded in practicality. More spread out a nation's younth/innovators or even an ethnicity (think jews) they expand our horizons, the knowledge and the network that makes them even more effectively contribute to build the next gen. The fact that it has become such a US vs them argument in everything and the vibe of holier than thou attitude towards NRIs by those who want to be physically be in India has only gotten increasingly offputting convo that is not grounded in substance.
Hello Minister.. META and GOOGLE are not the only companies in US. Make in India LION is either in Delhi ZOO or may be in some CIRCUS... For business, the internal environment within the country has to be at peace.. BJP is fueling feud against people specially among youngsters.
Stop kissing NRi asses. They went for money, they will come for money - it's as simple as that. I am not even blaming them, it's just human nature to run behind the money.
Rubbish your just taking wrt entrepreneurs wht about employees As an employee I can always make more money in the states that's wht even china which is kind of technically developed employees try to go to abroad to get a job (again from an employee perspective not from and not from an entrepreneur perspective) So as an employee I am sure I can never make very good money from India even if India develops or becomes equal to china
Reservation is the reason we will never return and never want our kids to return. We can live in poverty somewhere else if we have to. Atleast we will have respect and value for our hard work.
Sorry I'm not American Indian. I'm a proud ndian American. No longer can anyone tell me anything that isn't true about my culture and origin as I was taught in school and by other ignorant people. Indian culture is hands down the best in the world. The west where I was born I'd a failing society full of deviants
Indian American here too. N largely agree. We need to work harder towards converting non-indian Americans to the Dharmic fold. I think that's the future.
I came to The USA in 2016. Worked in Mumbai for a few years before that. All things aside, I know I was living weekend life there. Used to leave home at 8 am to only come back 9-10 pm. Because of the bad roads, traffic and what not. After coming to US, I realized that your job is not supposed to be your life. There's so much more to it. Now I get time for kids, family and even my hobbies post work hours. Not just on weekends but also on weekdays. Also, I couldn't put more emphasis on the working environment being so much better here. I realized that people aren't looking at you as a machine but they really care about your well-being. Whereas back in India, bosses won't even hesitate calling you late hours or weekends to ask about different kind of statuses, reports and stuff.
That master-slave mentality is rooted deep in our systems, both private and government.
Don't want to bash my country, I just love India. But things said in here are too biased and straight up calling NRIs like they don't know anything about working there. Peace ✌🏼😇
True

Same for we WFH software freelancers making US dollars while sitting in home here.
True
100% true!
As a recent NRI, just moved to US in 2018, aged 27 currently, i have couple of things to add. Its just not about opportunities in India. I have lived in Bangalore all my life. I agree that opportunities are increasing in India overall. But its the quality of life US/Canada/Australia provides to the people.
In US we pay 27%-32% tax here, and we get best roads, free education for kids till 12th, and the quality of life.
But in India we pay 20% tax, and what for? Potholes in roads, floods everywhere in monsoon, they put a new road today and after a week its dug up for something else, traffic(which can be ok if we use publix transport), and edication is soo expensive, and government schools are not worth going to fir students.
On top of all this, we have to struggle for everything(doctors, lowyers, policemen) for whom we have to bribe for everything. I am saying this because i have experienced it myself as i bought a home in bangalore 5 months back, and the amount of bribes i had to give to officials just to do their job is just hilarious. I have never bribed anyone in US to get my job done!! As an NRI, i value my time over money. If a task gets done in 1 week by bribing 1lakh rupees, thats fine with me than wasting my 1-2 months of time. 5 years back, if i had to do this, i could not afford to bribe 1 lakh. Everyone else may not have this luxury.
And the reason for me to come to US to do my Masters was reservations amd quotas.
Even though i was talented enough, i did not get education in the college i wanted because of reservation system. And the same thing happened during Jobs after undergrad. As a teenager, you obviously get the thought that if i am not being respected here, then i will go to a place where my skills are valued.
And considering these, i would still say, india is moving in the right direction, baby steps are taken, but still a very long way to go.
Absolutely on point
Very well put. Yes facts are harsh, and India has a long long way to go!!!
Correct.
then don't come. be happy in US 😁
Yes total system needs to change specially reservation and minorities commission for a group which is majority in many areas
I have worked in Bangalore. I agree that there are many opportunities in Bangalore but the pathetic traffic and infrastructure in Bangalore is the most depressing part. The metro started in 2008 and still it is still not reached a proper 30-40%. Both BJP & Congress governments have come and gone but people are suffering
Well bangalore's auto walas and olas and ubers are also pathetic. They have great roads compared to Mumbai which is sad for me as a mumbaikar but the local population is not well educated to equip and upgrade themselves as per the needs of the newly migrated population.
@@ronak212 local population are well educated. I know some autowala and Uber drivers go off board many a times but there is no need to upgrade themselves for the new migrant. The new migrant should realize that they are a migrant and they are entering another city with another culture and system. When you enter someone else’s house, you need to respect and follow the rules of that house rather than asking them to follow your way.

By that logic, the entire government of India should resign since they already have a lot of money and they can settle in America and Europe to live a more comfortable life.
I'm not sure, I heard "this is the best time to be a young indian" back in 2002, and then again in 2005. I believe what this guy is saying but that time has not come yet, maybe in another 3 or 4 years as the US dollar will most probably get weaker and the economic incentive to come here will be a lot less. My dad left India back in the 60s with the hope he'd move back, but that never happened. Having said that Modi really put India to the international stage that's for sure. When I was a kid the reputation of India was so bad that I used to ashamed to tell my classmates my parents came from India, now because of Modi every person of Indian origin is proud to announce they are from India!
3 to 4 yr is not a big time. So, time has come. By 2029 1USD will be just 3 INR after de-dollarization (which can go in full swing from 2025)
Bangalore has two issues - low FSI which prevents tall buildings and terrible infra (roads / water / electricity).
Also, average kannada person is more hostile than marathi manoos and forces everyone to learn kannada. Its better to live in places like gujarat where locals want to make money and not force everyone to learn gujarati.
Imagine ppl from 100 nations forced to learn kannada to bargain with autowallahs, lol.

India has people, talent and compassion to make things happen. However, discipline is missing. Compare China or other Asian nations, we should accept our mistakes and raise higher. Our political system, finance, governance are all super old. Change boldly and see how it works. Lastly, keep media and legal under control, not sell them to private firms. US, UK are still inflating our exchange and making us poor, many countries are richer than these two. There is nothing much left in the English world!
The problem is that Indians love anything that isn't Indian. They are ready to leave India rather than face the problems head on. All the other countries progressed because they worked together. People are selfish here, they don't want to do anything for the country
People like Nandan Nilekani and Rajeev Chandrasekhar should be preserved.
There are still fundamental issues like cities sinking when it rains and systemic issues in government.
I can’t speak for all NRI’s but I feel one of the biggest impediment to return to India especially for an NRI like me with school going kids is their education in Public schools in India. I hear stories and I know lot of cases where the private school education is so expensive. I’m curious to know what is currently being done by the government to raise the level of quality of education in Public schools and also to attract/convince parents to join their kids in Public schools. Thanks
Just pay in India what you pay in Europe or north America and you'll get the best
As an Indian, I'm glad we're discussing India's infrastructure development, although the reverse brain drain hasn't started. It may take a decade to match Western countries, but the conversations indicate progress.
If you send your kids to public school these days since Biden been in the office watch your kids do drugs at very young age and learn about sexual orientation crap! No education nth they are not teaching kids anything these days in public schools. Also talking about school shootings they happen in public schools! They don’t put this on
news because this whole damn country runs under democrats!
@@genuine_patriot9843 no
Also, these countries have accepted this woke culture where kids identify themselves as different genders. My goidness its horrible
I'm happy that our government has politicians like this! Break from old age uneducated politicians
I'm a young NRI from Australia, and yes I agree to what you guys discussed, I'm optimistic about India, and planning to move back and contribute to my motherland ASAP! ❤
And one thing is for sure, Modi government has succeeded in transforming India heavily in the last 8-9 years, making proud to be a part of the Indian diaspora!!
Future is not India unless legal system and policing is fixed.
So much work occurs by remote after covid.
1.Create a voluntary database/ platform of nri s . Can contribute expertise.
2. Give nri s jobs in government including civil / foreign service. Consider it like a football club with overseas players coming in. Just the varied experience alone will bring a new dimension in.
3. Watch the magic occur!
I think the reason behind going back to India is a very personal one ..unless there is a strong financial or family reason it’s a rarity that anyone wants to go back…but to that small minority who does have that mindset kudos to them !!!
The key thing that discourages NRIs from coming to India is everything that you get for granted in western countries but dont see in India, starting from not just salary, but good work culture, good infra, streamlined government related work without having to pay bribe to someone, safety of women and so many such other issues.
While India is vibrant and on a growth trajectory, truth be told, India has a lot to catch up in terms of tech innovation, when compared to US.
Ranveer is doing great work, we need thinking alignment with the ministers and bridge the gap for potentials

It’s funny how the whole discussion was about IT sector only. They are lots of other sectors such as Civil, Electrical, Chemical Engineers etc. who want to return to India but just can’t because of low salaries. I heard the companies are still offering same pay range as they used to offer in 2014 when I graduated from my bachelor’s and came to US for Masters.
I have friends here who came to US because they were victims of reservation quota in cutoffs, promotion etc. Some just couldn’t start the business because of long tiring papertrail and bribe at every step to clear the process, some for exceptionally low salaries in non-IT sectors etc.
Banks are not interested in promoting younger generations of non-IT sector to provide loans for MSME sectors. They are fine giving loans to people like Malya etc. I would say with India’s current leadership, we are on a right path but are not just there yet to convince that Indian diaspora. Jai Hind!
Good points
What you are saying is that you will move to a place that is setup and smooth running by someone else...

I left Europe and came back to India.. now earning multiple lacs a month,, I tell you India is the market ..you just need to have a good service / product . - De merit.. traffic and pollution.
this abundance in opportunities is sadly only in the tech and IT sectors everything else is still the way it was in 2000s
Sundar Pichai, an outsider can be CEO of US’s tech giant. How many Indian companies have such talent centric open culture. can you imagine Ambanis letting someone else be CEO.

Thank you Ranvir. Thank you.
I can very confidently say it is not only about opportunity or money. The work culture, work life balance , system everything together make people taking decision of leaving. I love my country but it is fact
Ask them what have they done for public education
So most of the IT people in bangalore work as an offshore employees for companies in US. For that job they are paid 8-9 LPA if they’re lucky. For the same job their salary starts with 60 LPA in US and I am talking about starting salary…

India AI is indeed exciting.Great job Ranveer !You are a genius
There is this internal bureaucracy within the workplace such as rewarding those who work late hours while we all know that it is inefficiency at best when some one takes more than 8 hours . I left India when I was put into projects not worthy because I got married and when I became pregnant I was asked to do testing while I have been a developer until then . This systemic discrimination to women because of males few years older than me thought that I need a break without hearing a single word from me. India is modern by outlook but deep rooted discrimination still exists and they are carried happily by those who are privileged to carry .
There is no doubt future of india is bright but we can’t wait till that future to come, we have only limited time life. So seeing that future, May be we will not be there. It’s better to live in present n live in country who is already futuristic.
There are lot of issues in India but you guys are focusing on positive aspects, thats good.
Just remember the problem with India is that 20 percent wants to rise and the 80% want to pull down. So decide who will win. Many fools are not realizing that the nation is only prospering in artificial economics.
Let them spend 3% on RnD
The job of the minister is to paint a rosy picture. One of the words he used “making -hawa”, apt description of his narrative.
All we hear is “exciting time”, “opportunity, “great potential” , blah blah. Ground reality is much different. Just look at the unemployment rates of Indian youths. There are jobs in metros, but population lives in tier two cities and villages. If you have jobless youths, history shows only Revolution is the outcome.
Good but some way still to go . Everyone should have the freedom and confidence to work in wherever they choose to . Please do not demonise or pull up those who have gone abroad, not everyone should stay put. Young people , do what you want to , let no one curb for spirits ❤
One of the other issues with Indian IT firms is that they have no concept of educating employees on diversity and inclusion and by DEI I did not mean womens in workforce, I guess we have made great progress their in last few years. It is employees who comes under LGBTQ umbrella, divorced man and woman, single man/woman post 35 year age. These audience is very vulnerable in Indian IT industry. Most of the talents coming in IT sector is coming from small towns. These folks have no education about lgbtq and in most instances made fun of the lgbtq friends in college and schools. Since Indian education system is all about competition, a lot of lgbtq employees face hard time at work since their peers use sexual orientation as a way to put their LGBTQ colleagues down. Education is needed in Indian IT companies to end the mindsets of competitions which a lot of folks graduating from educational institute brings along with them. I tell you my own experience when I was graduating from collage, I had a friend in my hostel who used to beat me up on the day of exams and shout me by names like chkkas specially during the time of exams since he knew that these actions kills my confidence and that was the only way for my friend to score higher score than me since he was not able to compete with me fairly. A lot of my other friends in hostel used same way to put me down. I can give you examples of Indians graduating from Americans university forcing their gay friends out of apartments and being very discriminatory at work in us companies. For these same Indians, it is not an issue for other LGBTQ Americans to be LGBTQ and these same Indians try to lick their foots but when an Indian colleague of theirs try to keep their personal life Private, these narcissistic straight Indian IT staff use that as an avenue to put their LGBTQ Indian peers down. It is not a specific or personal issue but it is happening at a large extent in Indian IT companies. It is surprising that a lot of my Indian co-workers working in USA don't know what LGBTQ means and they thinks the rainbow logo of company corresponds to monsoon season in India. HR needs to take LGBTQ education seriously. A large chunks of LGBTQ Indian crowd lives outside India and works as reputed professors and CEOs. In many cases they ruin their life and a woman's life by succumbing to pressures from peers for getting married.
Irrespective of whether these big MNC want to open shop in India, there is too much corruption from top to bottom. Way too populated. For those reasons quite a few Indian Americans don’t return.
Nobody wanted them here anyway. India actually invested in them by providing them education so they can do something in return to the country but they fled as like nirav modi and mallaya did with the loans.
And some of them have the audacity to criticize india.omg i feel offended when i see these creatures are alive without dying
As if there is no corruption in USA. USA is gonna break soon because of bipartisan politics.
I don’t see anyone refusing the money Indian American bring back to India though….
it is worth noting that India has traditionally been one of the largest recipients of remittances globally, with a significant portion coming from NRIs. According to the World Bank's Migration and Development Brief, in 2020, India received an estimated $83 billion in remittances, making it the top recipient country.
No need of guilt tripping nri’s. They are in a way contributing to Indian economy.
Haha... I am laughing seeing @prakashD-sj5jz comment.
We invested our life, time and taxes to India. When we don't get what we deserve because of quota, corruption, bribery, no free education to kids, we leave and find a place where our skills are valued.
India did not provide free education like here in US, to say that India invested in us by providing education.
And FYI, NRI's contribute to Indian economy by sending money, which goes to Forex reserves. So, check your facts and then speak.

It's very soothing to hear all this dialogues and offers. Once you get into doing something in India you will know the reality. One small hurdle or delay, your banker will turn against you first. Then the whole system will turn against you. You will have to go through hell then. NPA ! No money, no support not even the ministry will come up with a helping hand, to mention they won't even respond to our grievances and desperate call for help. We are struggling with our Ethanol manufacturing plant in Karnataka.
I'm an young upcoming Industrialist, following the foot steps of my late Father, he was an Industrialist, a visionary, a great honest man who suffered and struggled, and finally lost his life without seeing his dream project coming into life. All because he wanted to build a great public limited organisation to provide numerous jobs and livelihood to the talented, poor and the needy. He wanted to develop the whole region. To bring prosperity and stability to the masses and of course to contribute in a big way to support our economy, by spending, investing crores and crores of money ! Hmm. It is what it is !
First Help the needy, support the struggling, instead of marketing to lure in new businesses and entrepreneurs. encouraging new entrepreneurs and industries and startups are good but what about the ones who are facing challenges and suffering with their ongoing businesses? Ridiculous man. This will never happen in USA or other countries, now that's the difference. Take it from me, as I discuss with top level bankers in India as well as overseas.! Put me in a podcast, I will explain the reality.!
You know seeing you talk about this. I remember what Ratan Tata said in an interview
He said:
"for all those people who think that India is a difficult place to do business, we are a shining example of a company that survived a difficult business environment and today are one of the most successful companies in the country "
The reason why America is successful is because their people worked hard through tough times, through great depression to become one of the largest economies in the world
It takes effort, lots of effort to be an industrialist, there are a whole host of challenges but it is very much doable, Dhirubhai Ambani also built his business from scratch. If they can, so can you but it is certainly not easy. Yet it is very rewarding
@@valetudan234 Absolutely man nothing is easy ! Nothing is free. Don't judge ! You sound like some salaried guy dreaming of becoming a businessman, like Ambani or something.
My Point is, govt & authorities are supposed to primarily support the struggling on-going projects, which are very much alive and viable & with a huge potential to create jobs, and support the economy rather than going around marketing about the ease of doing business and reverse brain drain and urging new entrepreneurs to emerge ! Come on ! That's absurd. Focus more on revival. I'm sure you have no idea about all this. You only know about the Tatas and Ambanis, typical Indian 🤷🏻♂️ we have taken humongous risk to build this industry from the scratch. With that said,I have nothing to prove nor explain to people like you. BJP govt has indeed changed the whole scenario of Indian economy for good by introducing and bringing up so many amendments to the administration, rules and regulations.
However, like the Counsel-Genaral of Japan stated during GIM conference in Bangalore, "Unfortunately after the single window clearance, there are so many other windows to be cleared which people are not aware of and that's when things get bumpy" sad reality. We are a living example of it. Still we never gave up, I don't give up, we will do it no matter what ! It's our purpose, and ultimate responsibility to implement this mighty project, to give justice to an honest man, a visionary who dedicated his life for this.

From POV of Indians in India, calling us "American Indian" makes more sense. May be it will help us gain narrative control?
The best ways to actually ensure talent come back to india is giving them tax concessions and investment benefits where we would be happy to bring our money back and invest in india

Standard of living is not good right now..that's one of the reason people living India or not coming back. Too much population, not so good infrastructure, corruption etc..
Standard of living will not be that good after de-dollarization happens in the US and other western nations. By 2029, 1 USD will be just 3 INR and i am sure people like you would be standing in line to get back to India regardless of good infrastructure or not. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yaa it will take lots of time maybe years to develop infra like rest of countries
Standard of living is great in cities like Hyderabad, Pune, Navi Mumbai, etc. In these past few years, post pandemic, there has been a surge in infrastructure across all cities in the subcontinent. Since the Modi government has reigned this country for the past 9 years, corruption has significantly reduced.

The reality of India is that there's an engineering college in every street, it's not hard to "get" an engineering degree, but what is hard is to get into a good engineering college, get a good exposure and then at the end, to be an engineer
Holding a BTech degree doesn't make one an engineer, millions of them have it, you need to have the knowledge of an engineer to truly qualify as one. The main problem in India is that the education system produces a few good engineers while the vast majority is unskilled with worthless degrees
The problem is much of the qualified talent leaves india, not because they are treated like shit, but because they find opportunities elsewhere. I am not asking you to not go for opportunities outside India, but unless that top talent comes back and makes a change back home, nothing would change, the top talent has the potential to create jobs in India. Instead we see them complaining more. It may seem daring to take a risk, come back to India and then start a company, but who knows? It could be worth it. Top talent isn't treated like shit in India, engineers aren't treated like shit, the problem is that engineers aren't creating opportunities for everyone else, choosing to escape rather than face the problem head on

Regarding roads in banglore. Its a travesty. IMHO roads in banglore will never get better. Due to limitations of terrain n pre-built areas.
All indian cities have the same problem. Its better to build a new planned city from scratch nearby than to improve an existing city. I think govt should rather create new planned n modern tier 2 cities n encourage ppl to move there from tier 1 cities.
The governance and systems must be upgraded to reverse drain
All things kept aside, the biggest reason for a talented person to move abroad is Indian Reservation!!!!!!!!. India cannot give the same level of opportunities and work environment as Canada/USA till the time RESERVATION is there.
Lets check how many RVCE graduates in Bangalore stay in India
Mostly all of them.
Pls improve bangalore roads 🙏
Not gonna happen.
Due to limitations imposed by terrain n pre-built areas.

Infrastructure and Corporate Culture will never change. Politics at work place. Indians are fundamentally politicians ... all this is a problem.
But you are missing the point. In the west there is high inflation, high interest rates and impending de-dollarization which also means capital trimming (reduction in salary levels by 50%, defense spending and pension etc). It also means, 1USD equals just 3 INR by 2029. So, regardless of problems in INDIA, there will be no financial incentive to go to the west.
@@indianmilitary No you are missing the point - my point was'nt about financial incentive. Indians create a toxic work culture. Indian bosses are inhuman at over working employees and underpaying them because they want to make money by squeezing employees and not creating value. West?? We are talking US here. There is no inflation, In the last 5 years Gas price has not changed still at $2.xx cents. Burgers and Chicken Wings are as cheap as they have always been. There are always more jobs than people. BRICS so far has not put a dent on the $. Even if 1$ is equalt to 1 INR , the living conditions and happiness index , work life balance is way higher in the US. Indian Corporate culture is toxic, filled with nepotism and unfair conditions. Indian bosses are cheap , they favor saving a buck over hiring someone high quality. For them, It will always be win business by selling cheap and who pays the price?? - the employees.
@@indianmilitary Gas price in 2013 $3.18 and Gas price today $2.89. Know your facts.
Culture is established when too many people are following it. It is not set in stone, the next generation can change the culture but they won't because they prefer leaving rather than facing problems
If the Chinese, Japanese and the Koreans had the same mentality as NRIs then they wouldn't have ever progressed
@@valetudan234 People like us have been screwed over by Indian Bosses so much that we have nothing to give. Only abundance can eradicate greed and jealousy. If Indians were that noble, brave and fair we would have never been conquered ever in the first place.
He is talking about Indians who have no green card people come to this country not only for money but better life for them and their kids.people who have made million are not coming back to India you think guy who has not made😢 million will come back Indians will stop coming here when 1$=40r And it will happen in next 5 to10 years
Maybe. Probably. This narrative speaks to the assumption and “reality” that all Indians want to/should pursue STEM.
Ranveer says, “successful entrepreneurs in India can attract the tech talent back // MS AI (degrees that can be studied only in abroad).”
Question for you, @Ranveer:
What about artists? If an artist isn’t expressing Indian philosophies and/or religious themes, and Indian themes the artist isn’t really relevant.
You guys must’ve smoked up something that people here in the US don’t have access to. Name 1 Indian research scholar worth their salt in AI? That’s right. No one. Keep the dream alive everyone !!
So pre 2014 India was in ice age . 😅
The funny thing is spend all the money to go abroad because the govt failed to provide govt education at fundamental level. Provide good education for tax payers then brain drain will reduce
Why are we always talk in broad terms like bangalore is growing india is growing if you see at individual level no ones giving a shit about it in america people are earning more money period … now you are talking about AI tesla big names but majority people dont even understand it .. and those people can simply do job in USA and earn more money and live a comfortable life … this india is growing shit really doesnt work to a middle class person who just wants to earn for his family
Mahatma modi ji!!!!!!!!!

Jim Keller doesn't have any startup founded in India. Both Tenstorrent and Atomic Semi companies that he founded are in US. Tenstorrent does have office only one office in Banglore but many more in US and other countries. Typical BJP minister painting all rosy picture and cunningly hiding reality.
How can we reverse the brain drain when India can't even remove reservation system?
Please correct this to Indian Americans. American Indians or Native Americans are indigenous people living there. I know it's quite confusing.
Can we have a podcast on great mathematician Ramanujam and how he used to get mathematics from different world through diety goddess help.

Lol. No one is coming to india. 😂😂 Since last 400 yra india invented only one thing that is UPI. Due to less salary no one wants to live in india. Onky baniya businesses, reserved category, Govn employees and bhikari want to live in india
Then I think you haven't followed the trend the millanares living India decreased from last year from 6500 to 5000. So don't just speak without reading data.
Kya yeti bhi india Aa skta h
Message n hawa are very clear: Labor is cheap there
Dear Ranveer, only the best Indians, professionally, would stay back in the US and the rest would be ejected as always has been the case. Go West is the only slogan a man worth his salt remembers. I am a German national of Indian ethnicity for 25 years and there has never been a day that I have missed India or Indian life. Decades ago, I had the opportunity and fled from India and started dumping my Indianness wherever I could and I now believe that any Indian who becomes professionally a success shall have the same thought.
I can put out simply what u are : u are the one who don't have guts and will to survive in india and fled to Germany. are you professionally successful? obviously you wouldn't have reached that without the education ( it is the basis) that you obtained from india.
I think it is total waste of india's resources that provided you education.
R.C is not cabinet!

Talent hai..milega
@@gsharpmusic4540 🤣 that's why people won't come back or still would prefer USA or from abroad.
if they come back they will get hardly 20 L for same skills, or worse as HR's hunt for cheap labour, on top of it horrible work culture, politics and micromanagement.
for freshers it's beggars salaries in India. Facts of India's corporates.
For a 10 years experienced guy India max he can get 30 -40 that to of individual is highly skilled and will still be in mid level management if he is lucky enough ,
Abroad, individual can have much faster growth and highly paid packages
Unfortunate Facts.
@@adiroy2497 yup, that's the saddest fact lots of talent being hired for pennies
And the talent which leaves Bharat can't be neglected as well, many left are brilliants

Not so.wise 😶
Very typical, biased views. Such simplistic views are what makes one dimentional discussion about what human capital can do to a country.
1. People who immigrate do not just stay there or come back for the opportunity or lack of it. You build a life where you go, you belong, you build your community, it is not just 'coz you can have a good job or not. This is basic human nature.
2. Ministers can beat the drums as much they can, only who experience know the difference in quality of life.
3. No, people who are abroad do not only go and join big companies and do donkey work. Go check the number of startups and execs in big companies alike. Indians have heavy presence. It is very juvenile argument to point out layoffs by meta and google, it is part and parcel of every business nothing to do about a country.
4. People of a country controbuting doesnt have to be only by them dropping everything and coming back. That argument is very narrow minded and not grounded in practicality. More spread out a nation's younth/innovators or even an ethnicity (think jews) they expand our horizons, the knowledge and the network that makes them even more effectively contribute to build the next gen.
The fact that it has become such a US vs them argument in everything and the vibe of holier than thou attitude towards NRIs by those who want to be physically be in India has only gotten increasingly offputting convo that is not grounded in substance.
Hello Minister.. META and GOOGLE are not the only companies in US.
Make in India LION is either in Delhi ZOO or may be in some CIRCUS...
For business, the internal environment within the country has to be at peace.. BJP is fueling feud against people specially among youngsters.

I dont agree with this video at all, innovation, deaign, reserch all work they do it here for prodction they do it in back office
Stop kissing NRi asses. They went for money, they will come for money - it's as simple as that. I am not even blaming them, it's just human nature to run behind the money.
Rubbish your just taking wrt entrepreneurs wht about employees
As an employee I can always make more money in the states that's wht even china which is kind of technically developed employees try to go to abroad to get a job (again from an employee perspective not from and not from an entrepreneur perspective)
So as an employee I am sure I can never make very good money from India even if India develops or becomes equal to china
Reservation is the reason we will never return and never want our kids to return. We can live in poverty somewhere else if we have to. Atleast we will have respect and value for our hard work.
MINISTER - can you name some 10 billion USD UNICORN born and excelled since 2014 ??
I can name few from US 😶
Dont make stupid comments here.
😝😜🤪….. 🤡
Sorry I'm not American Indian. I'm a proud ndian American. No longer can anyone tell me anything that isn't true about my culture and origin as I was taught in school and by other ignorant people. Indian culture is hands down the best in the world. The west where I was born I'd a failing society full of deviants
Indian American here too. N largely agree.
We need to work harder towards converting non-indian Americans to the Dharmic fold. I think that's the future.
