"Be Honest About Why You're Not There": X User's Post On NRIs Praising India Sparks Discussion

"Be Honest About Why You're Not There": X User's Post On NRIs Praising India Sparks Discussion

Mr Das urged NRIs to be honest and clarify why they are residing in a foreign country even though they act like it's the "best place" in the world.

Debarghya (Deedy) Das, an Indian-origin former Google engineer, has ignited a discussion on social media with his post urging NRIs to explain why they are not residing in India. In a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter), Mr Das said that NRIs (Non-Resident Indians) who praise India should feel "obligated" to answer why they are not living in their home country. He clarified that it is okay for NRIs to think that India is not a place where they would want to live because of various reasons. However, he urged them to be honest and clarify why they are residing in a foreign country even though they act like it's the "best place" in the world.  When Indians living abroad talk about how bustling the scene is India, they should feel obligated to answer why they are not living there. And this isnt about not feeling proud and cheering on your own country. You should do that. Do that. But be honest about why you're not there

"When Indians living abroad talk about how bustling the scene in India, they should feel obligated to answer why they are not living there," Mr Das wrote. 

In the following posts, the former Google engineer added, "To clarify, it's okay to think India is growing but it's not at a place you'd live because in cause, say, air pollution. I just think you should clarify the why. It's disingenuous to try to act like it's the best place in the world to be if you're not in it".
