It is very clear already that US and some of the other countries have become verymuch unsafe to live. Atleast know all of fellow Indians to think again and again before going to other countries for education and jobs. India got somuch to offer..if u really want to use the resources available. May u may earn some dollars more if u go abroad..but u cannot have peace in life at all..i really dont understand what for these people are just running to other countries...by making somuch money do they live for 100 years on this earth. my dear friends please realise that we have very short life..and try to enjoy every moment of it in your own place with own people and in your own country and its a great thing that u have borne in the country like india. if u look at money or luxury ..there is no end where u will satisfy...my dear brothers and sisters..please think of ur self and think of ur old parents...before making a plan to go abroad.
to have so many lives cut short to one crazed maniac's actions is extremely unfortunate.
Frankly, its rather sad how some people down there are using this message board to voice their prejudiced opinions about NRIs.
I believe that this incident ought to fire an active public debate about the issues that led to the tragedy, and meaningful discussions about problems like students safety in the aftermath of the shootout are needed.

silly stuff ????? saare inventions silly tareeke se sochne se hi hue hai Bakshi Sahab...
What I see is that by this incident some ppl have got opportunity to criticize people who have gone to US.. they are showing their frustration... itna hi senti ho to India ki bhalai ke baare me discuss karo.. US me killings/bombings/rape ko discuss karne ke bajay India ka achha socho.. dont think by criticizing US Indianwill become great..... As far as sex is concerned, it's no longer a taboo in India too... be it a metro city or other.. keval aankhe band kar ke apni badai karni ho to kahin aur jaa ke karo.. India me chhupa ke kaam karne ka culture bahut puraana hai... people watch blue films from class 10th and react violently on a kiss scene in a movie..... they abuse commonly in daily conversation (so called elite class too) and oppose movies like omkaara....
Agar US jaane waalon se itni hi nafrat hai to start criticizing Kalpana Chawla, Deepak Khosla, Sabeer Bhatia, Ramanujam etc etc...
Itna frustoo hone se kuchh nahi milega keval gaal bajao aur rediff pe frust messages post karo..... That only reflects inferiority complex with a polish of superiority complex on it...

May the souls Rest In Peace ... I strongly feel that the killer was a maniac ... and u can't do much about that ... As it says that u can't set fields for an overboundary in cricket , same way it's really difficult to judge the behavior of a lunatic who is not in his senses ... Even if the arms policy is casual in US , these type of incidents doesn't happen on a regular basis ... In india the arms acts are stringent when compared to US but the people (ex: ranveer sena , Fidayeen terrorists etc.) who are hell bent upon doing massacar still manages to acheive their goals with illegal guns and bombs ... So I feel the policies doesn't have much role to play in this kind of incidents ... The victims were probably very unlucky ...

we really think about indians around the world. But do the NRI's care about their country - sadly the answer is No. People once settled in another country feel that they are no more Indians. They forget their parents, relatives, culture, religion, tradition etc.

Indian Man , Idiot did u see the news yday ? did u see the family of Prof Loganathan ? his wife and 2 daughters have been following the same tamil culture and have been living in the same tradition.. The loud cry which they made hearing the death of husband is enuf to say that they are still indians as these kind of attachment are expressed with great pain only by indians.. Dont comment on NRI's try to bring up india which is getting ruined in the hands of politicians and poor infrastructure.. GIVE US GOOD JOBS WITHOUT RESERVATION,GIVE PPL ADMISSION WITHOUT RESERVATION..MAKE INDIA A DEVELOPED COUNTRY ERADICATING THE POLITICIANS and then comment on us.. Ur country's attitude and the amount of respect we got for our qualification have forced us to become NRI... I am from chennai living in UK..my parents are the same too..but we strictly follow brahmin culture and we indeed have built a temple in UK for HINDU gods...can u shut up now ?

Probably this gentleman never got a chance to visit abroad. NRIs are more close to India then those resident in India. I will give you an example (which is not suitable to be mentioned here, but still). The Hindi film industry earns about 3 times more income abroad then in India. People never forget their roots, because the environment around them always reminds them of back home. When the food tastes bland, when there is no emotions involved in any dealing, when there is no joy during festivals, when there is no mourning in death, when there is no gossip, when there is no mirth during marriages, ones eyes do get moist. But even then you have to wipe your own tears, because no one can comfort you like Back Home.

whats the price of a ticket of a hindi film in american theatres as compared to here? any wonder then that some films earn 3 times more ?

dear indian man ..u r totally mistaken.when indians go abroad they love india more than before and much more than people like u.they remember india with every single breath and want to return as soon as possible.Today INDIA is an economic superpower and NRI indians have played a major role in that.They are the cultural ambassdors of india and tell people what real india is.they keep the same culture with which was there when they left india where as backhome all keeps on changing.I am working in Mauritius and have seen more than 2/3 of the world.We miss and love India more than anybody .So please update ur knowlwdge about indians abroad. jai hind

It is terribly disturbing to note the severity of the incident. My heart goes out to the bereaved families of Prof Loganathan and Meenal. People take all pains to build a career and when they are confronted with such a tragedy, the sorrow that befalls the families is inexplicable. May their souls rest in peace.

I was in US for 2 years and life sucks there. Kids/kallus and mexicans treat Indians very badly. The policy do not support us. We had to live with fear all the time. If you travel by a suburban bus or train in cities like Chicago and Boston you will come to know the risk. Kallus openly roam with guns and knives and ask money from Indian.
My advice to students is to be careful while selecting the cities for study.

Sometime back Rediff has put an article on "Relocating to India" and many feedbacks were in favor of India as best destination.This episode is an evidence to what happend in Veriginia Univ.Go east or west But India is the best.One can have freedom as well choce over type of education one want to persue. Again many readers now will comment on "Reservation" issue. But this issue can also be sorted out with balanced approach. Governments decision on Reservation in premier institute etc is politically motivated. Politicians are also aware of what they are doing. But their political carrer demands such actions.
May the departed soul rest in peace & take a rebirth in India to complete his unaccomplished goal of education & carrer.
