Why don’t NRIs go back to India? Dollars, Loneliness, Visa issues, Parents? | Albeli Ritu 

Visa milega tab jaroor aayege aur milege bhi okay

If you are not going to assimilate in US with Americans, and if you have no love for America, then go back to India. You have used America. Trump will kick you out anyhow.

Please visit some other cities as well ! Possibly Albany, NY, the capital city, but small city. You can meet many youngsters like H1B visa holders and also some seniors who lived whole life in US. Some are in 80s, have no intention of going back to India, but still hold on to Indian Passport, do not want to become US citizen

Frankly my current high paying job in the US is 10x more toxic than my humble paying job in Bengaluru.

you must have visa issues and got stuck in GC line. AFTER Green card, USA is land of opportunity and 99.9% never ever go back for good, only visit every few years !

What makes u depressed apart from missing india

when are you coming back like you can come back after 5 years after earning a lot

😮

What has Har Har Mahadev go to do with the topic of you returning?

So for the 10 years that you continued living in France you never thought of Har Har Mahadev? But when you returned to India [or possibly had to return to India/forced to return to India, due to visa issues] you are back to doing Har Har Mahadev. If Mahadev was so Har Har, you wouldn't have left the land of Har Har Mahadev [India] to go live in the No 'Har Har Mahadev' land of France. And that too for 10 long year. Why did it take you 10 years living in France to remember that Mahadev is Har Har? Not getting permanent residency in the Non Har Har Mahadev France/Europe? Yup, not getting permanent residency in Europe/Amreeka can make a lot of Indians remember that Har Har Mahadev can be found only in Indian. So now that you are back in Har Har Mahadev land, what next? Mandir-Masjid riots, Upper Caste-lower caste fights, Beef/No Beef vigilantism? Let me guess...You likely are going to pack your bags and run from North India to some city in South India in search of jobs. And once there you will like to boss over the local South Indians demanding that they, the locals, learn Hindi and speak to you in HIndi, so that your life is made comfortable in South India. You yourself will make zero attempt to pick up 5 words of the local South Indian language. But living 10 years in France, you likely put in some effort to pick up basic French and spoke French in ishtyle. So in non-Har Har Mahadev lands, you have no shame in picking up Foreign languages. But there is a lot of shame in picking up INdian languages even when you live/work in Har Har Mahadev land. Jai Bajrang Bali and Jai Santoshi Mata ji and Bharat Mata ki Jai

Kyu aarhe ho😂idar 3rd world country mai udar h raho 😂😂 hum ko gadaar nahi chaiye desh mai

​@@samanthamccormick1505 sooooo funny!!!!!

infra is not a major problem anymore imo, it's the unorganized and undisciplined public. They ruin anything that's built and have 0 sense of basic responsibilities towards public properties. If Indians magically become organized and disciplined, that'll solve most problems on the roads relating to infra. Stricter and better implementation of laws is required which will again require stopping corruption on micro level

All my comments convey positivity about India. What I hate the most is religious division, ppl spitting in the road.

cost is sky high? lol you want to spend in cents when you’re earning in $$$

Bro, how many years ago did you leave India to think that caste is still a problem, at least for Hindus? Muslims try to post Fatfa to kill Ahmedia and other law caste Muslims, but Hindus discrimination is very limited to villages and politicians at most.

Having lived in India and abroad, your comparison could not be any more true.

Nobody wants to have another India in US. If you like all these things and not adopting western culture better go back. Every immigrant wants to come to US from 3rd world country and cultures and then hate western culture.

Definitely agree

People rather than accepting always try to pull you down to make them look higher, be it friends, colleagues, especially relatives.

Smart cities main garbage na ke barabar hai aur infrastructure india ka kaafi had tak change hua hai..but yes sirf infrastructure change hone se country developed nahin hoti . Jo ease, comfort and freedom hai american lifestyle (mental, social, economic) and thinking main..wo to european contries main bhi nahin. There is no other country like USA.

Soon you will realize that 'dollars aka money' is almost everything.

Soon you will land into depression and a dilemma that y I am living here

Now things are much better in India after COVID. Most of the company has permanent WFH. Salaries also much grows in India

Recently visited USA .I found job market is super horrible..coming to US means inviting Suicide/Rape.entering US means entering red light area,no going back..innocent indians come here nd get screwed..USA means ultimate screwing assured..be careful children.India is heaven.parents plz realize

Spot on!

First make India liveable then everyone will come back.. population in India has surpassed China.. there will be more competition for everything and those who get chance to start their life away from all this drama will fly away.. there is nothing wrong in it.. if they keep thinking of missing out on marriages or friends or family then they can't give good future for their kids.. it's the kind of sacrifice they choose to make for their future..but if India becomes like western countries or even l 50% like it then people definitely come back.

law n order is getting weaker in usa too , they are in fake democracy .two party system . u mean too say courts needs to be fast . i understand its big problem here , our govt advisor sanyal said they will solve this in next 5-6 yrs lets hope for the best.sanyal is also an NRI and a former MD of malaysian bank , i dont remember correctly

Well said. Be where your heart is. I have stayed in US for over a year and realised that although US is a beautiful country, it couldn't fill the void that I felt as my family and friends were so far away. The dollars cannot give the happiness that I felt with being surrounded with the people that matter to me. It's definitely a trade off.

Yuck.

Thats the issue for me, you have to "TAKE" your parents to parks, "TAKE" your parents to gatherings , "TAKE" your parents to restaurants. Its like trying too hard for basic things which my parents used to do independently in India. But here it's like they are completely dependent on us for everything. Which is not a good lifestyle for our parents. They feel lonely during weekdays. I dont know how you handle those things, share some tips.

Good social mannerism ? no bad politics ?. 200 years ahead of us 😅. ?.

Home land is always the best..I don't want to live in some one's mother land..

200 ahead of india? Lol

Bro I am not agreeing with your two points entrepreneurship, businesses friendly environment come to Gujarat our government and even college will support you financially

Law and order? No man. My experience in the US has not been good. I have been mugged, attacked with a taser gun and got my bike stolen all within 1.5 years of me being here. In no case police was helpful, they might be helpful only after I die ! Lol

In my opinion, it is better to go back to India after gaining some experience, and making decent money, say in about 6-10yrs. The # of ppl going to US for studies, its such a huge financial drain for India. Earlier students used to come for only MS which is 3 semesters but now ppl are going for bachelors+masters. The exchange rate has gone up so much. Further, India invests on the individual until 18 or 21 yrs, if (s)he stays back, all the productivity of that person is gained by US without spending a penny. Imagine the loss to India.Indians will always be treated as outsiders though it is not visible. Its not easy to crack the higher level/mgmnt level jobs. And the g*n culture, good numbers lost their lives to it without their fault. Recently one Indian girl was sh*t at Allen outlet mall sh**ting, its so sad. Maatru bhumi se Kuch bhi accha Nahin hai. Singapore, japan, china, Korea and so many other countries were much worse than India. With will and wish, they made their countries awesome. Similar revolution needs to come inside young Indians. Otherwise this drain cannot be stopped.

I agree with your thoughts xyz, luckily I was able to learn and experience so much within 2 years I decided to move back to India. At the end it's a personal choice, and no country is the best or the worst. Something to share: Recently I watched a blog where an American tourister visited Marina Beach in Chennai. He was interested in horse riding and there were two horse riders who offered to take him for a ride at a cost of Rs.400/-. The American tourister turned down this offer saying it's too expensive. Really??? Think about us Indians going on a vacation in Florida and to do the same activity we need to book online, pay by credit card, assemble at the beach on time without any delay, sign a waiver and pay at least $70 for a 5 mins horse ride. Makes one question at just lesser than 10% of the cost for the same activity in Florida, one can go horse riding in one of the world's longest coastlines. End of day is just a perception, to me India gets me what I need, so it's my choice although the USA changed my prescription about India. Thanks USA 🙏

What you are talking about is probably the India of 1960/70 or probably of 1980/90. In this age of internet, social media, India has changed drastically. I have lived in USA for close to 9 years. Except the pollution and traffic problems I see marginal differences in terms of lifestyle. Plus in India you get to be with family and friends. Also, due to work from home the problems have somewhat reduced as I need to travel less.Overall it feels much better to be here than I was in USA.

Yes, experiencing that in Russia now

I agree with your points but man the life in US is very lonely. Especially for people like me who doesnt have anyone here. Its relatively easy for the people who have few close/distant relatives, but man for rest of us its very depressing. Even after all the money we have in our bank accounts , we don't have anyone to talk to. People are very COLD here in the US while In india you feel that WARMTH. !

Dont

I don’t believe you

Fakey

I am so glad!!

Indian IT is screwed up..everyone is not MAANG capable...apart from that it's such a huge crowd and competition with not that fancy pay and work life balance. Working till 9 PM is a common norm.

Craze has been constantly declining, There was a report in which fewer than 100 IITians out of some 12k went abroad as they are mostly getting opportunity here. The mediocre or average crowd in India however is moving abroad as they don't get good employment here

@@vecna7523 but the entire country is not from IIT , so yes most want to leave as they cannot work like a coolie all there life .

What India can't provide they are providing. Ultimately you need to pay for utilities. Wherever a person finds his desires can be fulfilled so you can go to hell too if your desire is fulfilled. Deysh Bachao doest work it's a metaphor.

May be it is the case 10 years ago .Now everyone is going there.There is no any IIt JEE entrance kind of exam to feel proud that u wen t there

Exactly. I don't think anyone deserves extra respect solely because they got a job abroad. It is just hyped by immature/ignorant ppl

Totally agree with Mayur. Bro have a special respect and status. They’re considered as more knowledgeable and native people tend to prove that they’re nonetheless than those are residing abroad or returned back.

That mindset is changing of late. People feel bad for us on the point who will be with us as you get older. Have travelled to many places and seen some Indian houses abroad. There is nothing to gloat or proud. There are lots of challenges one has to face and the expenses abroad..My God. It's better to live happily where you are destined to. Many Indians turn very self centred around their immediate family and cannot appreciate or get along during their small trips back to their homeland. Their mentality changes with breathing the air and drinking the water around..it changes them unconsciously in a subtler aspect which the individual can't have control most of the time unless one is very conscious and self aware

@@rajib8231 somewhat agreed. Also the objectivity suffers a bit. Suddenly everything in India needs a drastic change, its political system, states, or business. And this is not just India, have found it among other South Asian communities. Also their solution to these problem seem to be to follow the US/EU model not realising that one to one correspondence doesnt exist.

So I am not agreeing with your point that if your parents are not allowing you to wear clothes then why are you blaming whole country like it is not same now people are wearing what they want and especially girls women are empowered here

And yes I am talking about villages and small towns too and if some girls are wearing dresses and traditional indian dress it is there choice

If you move to any other city in India; do you think you cant wear the clothes you want (unless someone wants to wear that you cant wear in front of parents).. ? In Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi; girls do wear whatever they want. Why are women missing freedom in India!!??

In the most part of USA you anyway have to wear a long Jacket or a coat for half of the year. But I get it, Some Indian parents are two restrictive, I am glad mine were just so cool even in India.
