indian student killed in Virginia shooting
by DEBARATI DASGUPTA on Apr 18, 2007 02:17 PM

What need is there to make such a hue and cry over the killing of two indians in the shhotout? The student might had died in an accident or illness for all we care. She must be belonging to a privileged family to go and persue her study abroad . Then she would had settled down permanently in that country after getting all that subsidised education in her country. What use would that be to her own countrymen? And the teacher who was killed himself expressed the desire for his last rites in the US. In fact he was asking his parents to join him there. Do you know how much our elite institutions like IIT and IIMs are suffering from shortage of faculties? The best brains of our country still think of going abroad instead of putting their education in use here.Campus shootouts are nothing new in US where obtaining arms is easy job. So let us stop all this mindess arguing and fighting over a non-topic.We have far more important things to argue about.
