Message to Sameer Baghavatji and Ravi Kumar
by ManLion on Mar 05, 2008 01:08 PM

Do not use a broad brush to paint a gloomy picture of all NRIs. A number of NRIs have worked in India prior to going abroad. For example, a number of us migrated in the 60s due to lack of opportunities in India, with an intention of returning after acquiring experience and higher degrees. We got married to girls in India and are still happily married with our children working here.
For your information, a number of charitable organisations from India come abroad and raise money through us. For example, my wife has raised a lot of money for a Leprosy/TB hospital in Karnataka. I give free lectures and conduct seminars at various instituions during my yearly visits. I know that there are more like me who contribute but do not broadcast their contribution.
Like others have questioned, please let us know what you do and how much you contribute to the progress of the country?
