Always remember that the extraordinary growth India has experienced over the years has been due to its culture, passion and enthusiasm of the young generation. Regarding safety I'll say that US is one of the leading "unsafe" countries to be in where thefts and murders have become common phenomena. India has billions of great things to offer, focus on its potential, rather than cribbing over mosquitoes and tin sheds. I feel proud to be an India. --- a BITSian and an IITian.
