It
was a bright evening. I had fallen in surprise when I returned home from the
college. Reason? My aunt and uncle were in my home, after a long gap. Enjoying
a nice dinner, I was supposed to drop them in their house. On the return, my
thoughts started flying…
My aunt resides in the US. There
the Afro- Americans youths used to play havoc with the outsiders during the
night time. I was struck by her narrations, when I heard that the same was more
critical in case of Asians. My uncle is doing his research in a reputed
university over there. I asked myself why he can’t find a place to do that
somewhere in India. Many successive students from famous institutes in India
were aiming at the placements in various multinational companies, with a few
exceptions. The latter are with an ambition to be entrepreneurs and researchers
in India. Though it’s credible to our heart, the continuing intellectual
slavery due to the former just pours bitter milk in my tongue tip.
