Some interesting facts about Modiji's US visit [Sep 23, 2015]

Maxxramblings: Was watching interviews with Indian expats in the USA gathered to welcome the PM, across multiple channels. I was particularly surprised to find most of the interviewees were unable to express themselves in English and were reverting to Hindi. Significantly, most of them were businessmen and women, Curious how are they managing to conduct their business with such an handicap..

Some interesting facts about these interviews
  • 1. Most of these expats conceded that nothing much has changed in their lives since Modi's last visit but think that lives of folks back in India has improved dramatically!!! Did it???
  • 2. Most wanted changes to the visa processes to make it smoother and easier.. Truly the PMs highest priority item, it should be, which will springboard India to the first world😅 perhaps Modiji should drill some senses into the Americans to hand out Greencards to every Indians in the US, which would solve so many global problems like the economic crises, , poverty alleviation, Swachh Bharat, black money, removing bureaucratic red tapism and improing people's lives definitely..😜  People and their wants!!!!!
  • 3. Most showered plaudits over Modi for the Make in India campaign, stating it would make the westerners make a beeline towards India, but no one mentioned about they themselves coming back 😆  Basically pack all the westerners to India and bring all the friends and relatives to the US and enjoy the American dream...  huh!!! Guys you have come to the land of opportunities, do as the original settlers did and adopt the cultures and lifestyles which it offers and dont cling to your old identities too much, if it was so good why come here at all.
  • 4. They all had pretty strong opinions about most of the hot issues in India and believe Modiji possesses the magic wand.. Interestingly, on the question of reservations a person mentioned about how the same Indians are thriving in US without the shelter of reservation. Hmm.. that is an interesting point to ponder... How long can we roll out the red carpet treatment called the Quotas? And is it really doing any good? What are the beneficiaries giving back to the community? Or are they hoarding the knowledge so that only he and his family benefit?
