Re: [MTC Global] [Discussion Forum] Curbing the brain drain

Dear Sir, People migrate to other countries for various reasons. Some of the reasons
cited by could well be true. Such movements cannot not be curbed. Germany in the Nazi era
did promote rank patriotism but could not stop migrations. There is no reason why
anything outside the prescribed course of study should be made compulsory. If the Govt of
India enacts a legislation that makes it compulsory for all the students to do two years
of social service as part of its curriculum then this could be a way of ensuring that the
youth work and contribute for the benefit of the country. This was indeed done in the
case of medical education. In the 70's Medical students were compelled to work in the
villages in order to earn their degree. The results of such a decision seem to be in
doubt because even after the passage of such a long time, healthcare system in our
villages remains abysmal.
The Govt run schemes have failed and so we find the NGO's taking up some of these
activities.
The Social Welfare and Other Departments of the Govt could take up the programs for such
critical skills like First Aid work, Anti-terrorism education, Women's Protection in
public places and Soup Kitchens for the homeless and the starving, etc. Such programs non
denominational in nature will foster a better degree of patriotism besides being
legitimate and lawful rather than mere propaganda.

There is no such restriction in Germany like you mentioned
(quote): "Some advanced countries like Germany do not allow any graduate to
leave the country after graduation at least for two years, graduates have to
serve their mother land first."
Everyone can stay or leave the country as is normal in a free democratic
country.
Fact is that in Germany, the unemployment rate is so low, and the job
opportunities are various and attractive, that no-one feels driven to leave, at
least not for job reasons. We also have to note that education is free of cost
from primary school to university, and government schools/universities are the
rule as they are good and quality-driven. Private academic institutions where
there are fees don't play a significant role. Also, the parental pressure to go
'abroad' for work, like in India, is non-existent whereas many Indian parents
also have the enhancement of social status in mind. That is one of the
problems!

Please don't spread such misinformation here!

1-2 years as RSS Prachrak first and then join the mundane world. One will find
many officers in Indian governance who were "Prachakak".

that at the time of seeking admission in 1962 for an engineering programme in
a Govt. College (that time there were no private education providers), I had
to execute a bond to the effect that I would serve the Govt for two years
after graduation. But never implemented! In India we regard degree as a
"private good" and not as "public good". We follow democracy with Indian
style, blended with the ideal concepts of globalization, Human Rights, right
to freedom of speech, expression, travel, etc.
