Do you think this brain drain is making the rich countries richer and poor countries poorer? What can be done to stop this phenomenon?
“Brain Drain”, burning issue of this decade, is continuously letting our nation down, in the race for pride and power in the world. The hunger for money has taken us far beyond the ability to think wisely and lead a life of honour and prestige. Money has risen above any other thing or emotion in this world.
On a wider spectrum, for a country to be rich, its economy needs to grow, every citizen’s average lifestyle should rise. On this same ground, coming to the stand of our own nation, our brilliance is working for others, their economy is growing above us. What we are marching towards is, to the era of slavery. We Indians have forgotten the pain of slavery and the taste of democracy. We are failing to utilize our valuable resource of manpower. We don’t care to honour our qualified men with appropriate profile and designation. Unemployment to the literate youth is the biggest drawback in our country. Corruption, self-centred management, status consciousness; all these virtues have victimised an enthusiastic and energetic person with high qualification and sophisticated ideas for its implementation. Since he is getting a respectful welcome in terms of designation and salary, our youth chooses to serve other country for their development.
The term Brain Drain is not just restricted to the NRIs and those working abroad, but the Indian citizens who are working with their hands tied up to the MNCs are also equally ditching our country. Brain drain is definitely helping the developed, rich countries, getting richer. Our brains are getting appropriate profile, designation, power, prestige and above all the red hot salary by other rich nations.
