Don't Forget India



Nowadays all who are good at studies want to go abroad. It is good to visit other countries ; but to stay there permanently - why should you? Why should you settle down in foreign countries? The India that has given you birth, that has reared you up - would you forget her just for the sake of getting a little more money? I know you have a lot to say against our country. You will say, "Here we have to wander about haplessly. No one understands our value. How much trouble we have even to get a job of two hundred rupees! But in America, we get jobs fetching thousands of dollars." Yes true. It is also true that merit and skill are not given their due in this country. Even then I would appeal to you - no, please do not desert India, do not forget our country. Just the other day I read in the papers that twelve or thirteen Indians got some prize in America for doing some remarkable work in science. But all of them now were American citizens! What does it all amount to? It was India that brought them up, they have taken so much from her - and when it was their turn to give something, they gave the credit to some other country! Just think over it.
