I will remain active on Rediff as ashok I am waiting for my application for immigration to be considered. Most likely this year. My son is studying abroad and if God willing my 2nd child (daughter will also be not a burden to India, and I will like her to compete globally,I am trying to earn enough Dollars to support her studies abroad, or else ask my son to help) Give me 2007 and I am ready to publically talk and debate. I travel extensively and it really pains when I see our politicians make us fight for sins which I have not committed,nor father or my grandfather. We need to come out of this debate of SC/ST/OBC and ask my fellow beings that it almost takes 3 generations to come up and have reasonable living. Barring few such as Dhirubhai Ambani. Who were definitely more talented and focoused. They never talked about past. They talked about future and created wealth for India and in India. Let us all do that. I have done this so far, in my own humble little way.
