GLOBALISATION EVERYWHERE

‘Brain Drain’ has been much thought of being one of the negatives to the nation. We have a lot of students chasing their dreams into goals in foreign Universities and a large pool of talent working abroad. And till date this has been considered as draining the talent of the nation to other countries and thus harming the nation as a whole.

If we contemplate the same situation in today’s scenario where globalization is becoming rampant in almost every area that can be thought of, the so called ‘Brain Drain’ loses its whole meaning. New dimensions are being added to ‘Brain Drain’ with the Globalization.

That was a thing of past where nations were merely identified by their geographical entities or borders. Today, we live in a borderless world and boundaries have no impact. People and ideas are no more trapped by the notion of boundaries. We live in a world that is fast becoming FLAT (instead of round as perceived by Copernicus).

So, how does it matter whether an Indian mind (in India) is working for an American or an Indian mind (in America) is working for an American? Further, this is a good thing that we have increasing number of Indians abroad at good positions. That should be a thing of pride for the nation.Also, if we have Indian Nationals at good positions abroad; they can take India’s interest ahead at the Global Level.

Last but not the least; we are a billion plus nation. Do we have the infrastructure to nurture such a huge human resource? Answer is NO.So, its better that our human resource is being nurtured in other countries. The newly proposed Quota Regime will further add to this.

The much presumed negative thing is turning to be a great positive for the nation in the coming future.
