Ramesh: I Just completed My BBA
Suresh: Wow, that's good news. What is your next plan ?
Ramesh: I am going to USA for my Masters.
Suresh: Why, you can do it in India also.
Ramesh: Yes, but western nations give more financial growth and a better lifestyle. If I work 5 years there, my life will change forever. I cant see bright future in India.
A few days later
Suresh: Mom, you know Ramesh, he went to the USA for higher education.
Mom: Really, even he left.
Suresh: Yes
Mom: If all the people leave, what about India ?
*What about the people who can't afford that much money ?
*Studying in our country doesn't hold any value ?
*If you study here and work for some other country, what about our India then ?
Data
Yes, these are some conversations we hear frequently in society. The NRI community of India is about 35.4 million and every year 2.5 million people leave India. Around 2 lakh yearly shift to foreign passports.
*Many Indians go for higher education and technical work in the USA.
* For blue-collar jobs and labour work in the UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, Qatar.
*Europe for the health and IT sectors.
This is the current trend which has been going on.
The unemployment crisis in India and economic situation are leading citizens to migrate. As the population has increased massively, competition for every sector has increased 10 times more than before.
Major reasons why citizens leave
*Higher Education
*Quality living and lifestyle.
*Jobs and opportunities
*Merit-based growth
*High pay
*Lack of opportunities in our country.
*High competition and population increase
Impact
*Loss of skilled citizens in our country.
*Studying in India and investing their knowledge in western countries.
*Government funds being misused and loss of investment.
*Institutions collapse due to lack of skilled labour
*Growth for other countries more than ours.
*Slow growth of the economy.
*Tax loss and overall development
These are some reasons where brain drain damages our country’s growth in the sectors. We know we are having problems. As long as educated and skilled people keep moving, our country's growth will be slow and mere advancement.
