Does anyone noted that every news channel, newspaper or site always put "INDIAN" before American Sunita Williams. One thing is very clear that we Indian are always front runner in putting "Made in India" tag on everything which is successful. I am sure if Sunita still living in India, despite her best intellectual abilities, she would have been one of the millions of ordinary indian women. We or Indian government has done nothing for her and now Sunita is successful, we are claiming "Indian American Sunita Williams. The same case was with Kalpana Chawla. Why it is like that everybody needs to go outside India to prove their metal and once they are successful, we don't waste even a single minute in claiming them as one of ours. Other case is Laxmi Mittal. This guy prove himself beyond doubt but I am sure, if he stayed in India, he would be one of the tax cheater, land grabber like ambani's, mittals etc.

whats wrong in emphasising India in this... Its an acheivement for her and she is on the mark to set world record so why not be proud and tell about her... if she in Indian let it be known to all that its Indian... Time was there when people use to proudly say... Made in US... ya imported hai... now when we Indian are now reaching the world why do we want to meek and humble enough not to mention Made in India.. I never mean to say we need to be arrogant but at same time dont be shy feel proud of India.. else it will happen same thing... as things are happened in past and in present.. Contributions to the world by India has been claimed by these westerners and we keep mum and helpless... There are many instances where we kept low profile and did not use Made in India tag and patent of Basmati rice went to some other country, turmeric was patent by some other multinational company though we fough and won... Yoga in US christian use the tag Christian yoga and say it with confidence it does not belong to any religion or country and do not give credit to india at same time.... So there is equal need to emphasis Made in India... She is Indian by origin and has made India proud that being in foreign and competition from many others, she has been selected.... so wake up and feel proud of Made in india tag.........no more low profile... world has changed

What Indians have done for Sunita or Kalpana Chawla except putting Indian before American.
