‘Don’t come’: Indian couple in US urge youngsters to rethink moving abroad
Two Indian nationals living in the United States are cautioning young Indians against moving abroad in pursuit of better job opportunities and a higher quality of life. Suhas and Priyanka, the couple featured in an Instagram video interview, argue that the landscape has changed since they themselves emigrated from India. Suhas contends that while the US was an easy bet for them then, opportunities for Indians now exist back home.
He laments the personal and emotional costs of leaving family and friends for life in a foreign country. The couple suggests that Chinese students and professionals often return to their home country with knowledge and skills gained overseas, whereas Indian professionals, they believe, are less likely to do so.
