Stay Ahead with the Power of Upskilling - Invest in Yourself! 
India is a developing country. Education is an important aspect for a country to reach its heights. But is our country following a correct procedure to motivate the young talent here? Why students, after completing their higher secondary education aspire to go abroad? Why they do not want to pursue their higher education, in India?
Is there a problem with the system?
Why here every student aspire to work in some foreign country? Is it beneficial for a country to allocate its resources on a bright student who ends up settling in some foreign country and working for them? Isn’t it Brain-Drain? And consequently is this good for India’s economy?
These are all questions which need to be answered and can’t be left unattended!
To eradicate this problem one should know the root cause, I personally interviewed some people who got education in India and are settled in US and some who strongly aspire to follow the same. I got some disheartening replies to my question “Why did you have this dream of settling down in US despite living in a country which has probably nurtured you like a mother since your birth till you left her?”
One of the replies that I got to this, was- “Oh, India? Are you kidding me? What US has given me in all these years in term of financial status or may be in terms of personality development, India could have never given me this much!”
Huhh, so, I won’t criticise the reason which this person gave me, in fact I’ll try and figure out why this has been happening to our country, that despite producing gems India doesn’t get them to serve her in return.
Definitely this is sad, that a citizen of our country thinks like that. But feeling sad won’t help, we need to work on the very reason that is making it happen. Because brain drain is a termite that is making our country hollow day by day. People should inculcate the feeling of oneness in themselves and they should have that possession for the country. So that rather than feeling that they are losing on something, while working in India, they work upon betterment of the country. And it is perfectly said that “If you want the change then be the change.”
What we want is the personality development and the financial status, no? So, why not help our own country to reach that height, so that people from other countries come and work for us, and our development!
Come, let’s work for our country and make it the best in every aspect. Because escaping from a problem, i.e. going to some foreign country and working for them, is never a solution.

Like the answer you got regarding why US is a place everyone wants to go to is something everyone would give thats the main problem with this Brain drain problem. Very well written 🙂
amazing work
Surely, this is a very sorry state that the country is in. Having all human resource drained out will do lots of damage in the long run. What is more worrisome, is that the government is spending a large amounts of resources on higher education too. When students leave the nation, all of that seems to be of no use to the country.
brain drain is a major problem with developing country like India
Appropriate title
Truly, I agree..If we want a change in our society, we need to be the change ourselves! We shall work for it whole heartedly so eventually we are able to enjoy the fruits of our labour. Brain drain has become a common trend now-a-days. I personally feel if each one us decides to work for our own country, the coming generation wouldn’t even think of this practise. We need to work towards making opportunities for ourselves.
I really appreciate your work. U did very well.
Brilliant work, very well written.
NYC work!
Useful!
This is the major thurst area on which Govt. should work upon. This is true, this brain drain is like a cancer to the country. Well written and covered a very appropriate topic. Cheers!………………..
Intriguing!

Brain drain is a huge problem. Well written.
Intriguing

Humans are being tamed in India majorly. Sad eventuality
I don’t agree with you to the fullest.
Nowadays, young minds aspire to stay and do something and contribute in one way or another to our country.
These days, people have the courage to step out of their comfort zone and try not to follow the crowd.
With the world of opportunities and start-ups businesses , India is one of the best places to try out something new.
Also, on the personal aspect Indian girls are no longer willing to marry NRIs the way it used to happen earlier.
Yes, to some extent people are willing to go because of better facilities like in terms of education etc. but now there really isn’t much
Hi Ankita, the point which i wanted to make here is that people are fascinated with the ‘studies in foreign’, going and working for them and I interviewed the youth, yes there are people who have changed their mindset, but there is still a huge population with the same mind set, and this is a problem Ankita, it’s not something which can be ignored just like that 🙂
Thanks for you views 🙂
Truly said 🙂
Nice work!
