@yajnadevam @svembu You think you would have gotten away with the lawsuits that Trump or his lackeys got away with?

Open letter to Indians in America. -- Dear brothers and sisters from Bharat: Like I did 37 years ago, you arrived in America with no money but with a good education and cultural heritage from Bharat. You achieved outstanding success. America was good to us. For that we must remain grateful - gratitude is our Bharatiya way. Yet today, a significant number of Americans, may be not the majority but not too far from it either, believe that Indians "take away" American jobs and our success in America was unfairly earned. You may think the next election will fix this, but your choice would be between people who hate our Bharatiya civilisation and people who hate civilisation itself. That is the "hard right" vs "woke left" battle. You are mere bystanders to that conflict. Meanwhile there is one thing that is true now and will be true in the future: the respect Indians command world-wide will substantially depend on the fortunes of India herself. If India remains poor, the woke left will give us moral lectures with pity and the hard right, different moral lectures with scorn ("hellhole") and we must not confuse either with respect. Respect in today's world, along with prosperity and security, comes from one source: a nation's technological prowess. India produces sufficient brain power to achieve that prowess but alas we exported so much of that talent, particularly to America. As we develop that prowess in India, our civilisational strength will assert itself. As difficult as it is for many of you to contemplate this, please come back home. Bharat Mata needs your talent. Our vast youthful population needs the technology leadership you gained over the years to guide them towards prosperity. Let's do it with a missionary zeal. Respectfully Sridhar Vembu

@GP6wec @Fintech03 Our ancestors suffered under Islamic and then British colonial rule for millennia to ensure the continuation of our civilization If I have to suffer a little unfair treatment to further the civilizational cause, the choice couldn't be easier

The irony of trolling Vembu is that people are critiquing a man who actually 'de-colonized' his own career. I personally went to the similar insti (not M), but while most used that pedigree to secure a high end lease on an western life, Vembu used it to build a sovereign estate in an Indian village. Trolling him for asking talent to return is like a passenger on a luxury cruise mocking the man building the shipyard back home. We do not have to agree with his timing, but you cannot ignore his math: A civilization that remains a talent-exporter will always be a policy-importer. People are reacting to his political framing, but they miss the Geopolitical Deduction. If you are an Indian in the US, you are a high-performing minority whose presence is tolerated as long as you are useful. Vembu is pointing out that Respect is a byproduct of Power, not Pity. For those of us from the same elite institutions, the letter is uncomfortable because it acts as a mirror. It asks: "Did you use your education to solve the world's hardest problems, or just to get a better mortgage in New Jersey?" :((

@Retarded_inc @Sai_swaroopa @svembu I agree but again it should only be for the best and the brightest, there needs to be a vetting process Too many people have left India for the West, 60% of them are better off staying there and sending remittances The rest can come back and Make India Great Again

@brahmosputra @Sai_swaroopa @svembu Needs govt incentives to really push the brain drain reversal. Especially when it comes to bringing back our PhD and researchers. They are as important as the entrepreneurs. Funding, Research Facilities etc

So here is my take on @svembu sir's call to Indians in US 1) The call apparently isn't meant for pansies who cant stand the heat. So sit there. 2) It is also not meant for those holding regular jobs there, with the only reason being dollar value. If you come back home, you will fail here. That country does pay mediocrity. Sit there, earn and send the money home. 3) It is meant for exceptionally talented guys who can disrupt the status quo back home and be real changemakers in whatever the firld they are in. I agree the ease of doing business is a pain in India. Good to have a discussion out on the real pain points of change making. The country too must be proactive in head hunting the crucial entrepreneurial talent back home and I am hopeful there will be changes. But in short, this move is for heroes as of now. Along with that heroism, you need strategy, grounded thinking and thoughtful networking. Also, I really hope Vembu sir excludes that Hotmail guy in his invite. PS : I might be one of those blessed ones who (and spouse) found a better mix of opportunity-purpose back home after a reasonably rewarding stay outside.

@Gandok267 @Sai_swaroopa @svembu You couldn't have come up with a more low IQ response if you tried "Build in India, for the world" That's the model! The businesses pay corporate tax in India, who cares where they get the revenue from?

@Sai_swaroopa @svembu Ask your sir to stop doing business with US clients and run his business with only Indian clients. Then perform this drama of nationalism. After one’s tummy is full , he or she can fart all the gyaan they can give.

Reiterating my earlier point: If you can make it in the US but not in India, it's a skill issue and the only reason you have a job in America is because you're cheap labor

Imagine being this fucking stupid lmao The guy lives in India, asks people to return back to India and some stupid mfer online replies with "You're not an American" No wonder these low IQ people lose jobs to Indians!
Sensurround (センサラウンド)@ShamashAran

You've been here almost 40 years and you still consider yourself an Indian, not an American: "...our Bharatiya way" "...our Bharatiya civilisation" This is the biggest reason you need to go back home. You're NOT an American. You're an Indian living in America.

If you can't make it big in India but can do so in America, there's only one reason: skill issue You don't deserve your American job and the only reason you ever got hired was because you're cheap labor

Savitri Mumukshu - सावित्री मुमुक्षु
Although I appreciate the sentiment and intent behind this post, if you want people to stay or return then the bigger issue to be addressed is what drives the talent to be forced to go abroad in the first place and how can that situation be remedied. The current younger generation of Indians in India deserve far better infrastructure and institutional support so that they can avail opportunities to excel and achieve to their highest potential. Instead their ambitions are thwarted by a mire of caste politics and utter lack of support for innovation or entrepreneurship.
