I have been residing outside the country for almost three years and in this time I see that India has changed a lot. I feel proud that my country is progressing so well. A lot still needs to be done though. Living in the United States has brought in many behaviarl changes in me. I truly recognize the meaning of the phrase 'When in Rome, be a Roman'. I am an environmental engineer by profession and feel very bad when the basic amenities are lacking aplentiful. Though nuclear tehcnology and advancements are definitely needed for a growing economy like ours, simple steps like keeping the society we live and the environment clean doesnt really warrant much. Though corruption is existent in advanced countries too, it manifests itself in the open in country like India. This is evident form the pathetic response evoked from the politicians. Sitting in the cosy chambers of the Mantralaya, its disgusting to see the response mechanism of our politicians. A lot needs to be done before we can even come close to realize our dream of being a world beater. Actions need to speak instead of words from the hollow mouth a politician. I feel its time to buck up now and take charge.
