Let me put it in this way: Those who CAN, they do go outside. Those who cannot, because of family or whatever reason do not. Look at how many Indians apply for PR in Canada or H1B in USA. Its not that hard. Money is very hard to argue against.
Sorry for late reply
That whatever reason might be patriotism at times(surprise surprise) and that is what I'm telling you.
Everyone is not running after money.(Believe it)
Previously you told to not expect charity, talked about give and take.
While I read in some other thread that you are an IIT grad. So Basically you did your studies on subsidy provided by govt(taxpayers money).You could have tried joining any govt organization/research program or something to inspire, educate, uplift our country,but instead you chose more money, it's not as if there is a dearth of jobs for an IIT grad here.But that would only happen if one has the urge to give something back to there motherland.
But than like you said, for some people,money is very hard to argue against.
Tells alot about your character though.
Even labourers from gulf send remittance money, perhaps more than what we get from Canada.
But then they are mostly labourers and the other side are engineers, scientists, doctors and what not.
It's ok that you and others around you never felt indebted to our motherland.
Might be a regional/familial/cultural/upbringing thing.
But please kindly dont insult the likes of kalam and other patriots by saying that they are failed runners.
Understand this, There is absolutely no comparison.
And again about remittances, as I said they send money because they have to.
You are saying others can send more, well greedy people tend to put money where they can make more profit,if they feel that they can make more by investing in India, thay probably will.
No matter, Citizenship or no citizenship, they ran away to far away land without that countrys citizenship,simply for more money.
So i got a feeling that, they will come back/invest/put money in India, only if they get more money by doing it. (Or obligations as told earlier). No need to dress it up as some concern/patriotism/good deed etc.
In the end, it seems we both have made up our minds, so
I think we can agree to disagree with each other here.
Citizens>>>>> OCI holders/dual citizens
So my final reply to you on this topic.
