India looses about $15 billion per year of foreign exchange or about Rs. 90,000 crores per year for the Indian students studying abroad.
If all forms of Higher and Technical education could be freed from the "License Raj" of the MHRD a large number of Indian colleges would become world class and a large number of foreign universities would relocate their campuses in India.
This would have a number of advantages to us.
1. Allow indian students to study in world class institutions at a much lower cost and stay within India
2. Savings in out flow of foreign exchange.
3. Increased inflow of foreign exchange for foreign students who would like to study in India at prices lower than their home countries and also experience India.
4. Indian higher education would then become a big export earner for the Nation.
5. Higher quality and more competition will compel the existing 40,000 colleges to improve or perish!

The talented and skillful youths from developing (in fact, underdeveloped) countries migrate to advanced countries due to such various reasons as:
1. Lack of facilities, opportunities and good and fair governance.
2, Employment paucity with no lucrative pay packages.
3. Job environment and management narrow attitude.
4. Political, social and economical climate.
5. Lucrative packages, comfortable and quality life in advanced countries.
7. Facilities, positive academic climate and world famous teachers and guides in foreign institutes.
8. The academic assessment mostly is fair and rigorous giving international status.
9. Lack of patriotism, love for motherland and integrity, etc., etc.
The youths are nurtured in their home lands and this semi-finished quality goods are absorbed in foreign universities. The selection to universities is critical and only value adding students are screened for entering into advanced countries. Advanced countries lack huge population. Allowing other students to enter into the foreign universities has got two major advantages:
1. Huge foreign exchange is earned by advanced countries. Chinese and Indian students form the major flow into advanced countries mostly US, Australia, UK, in the order given. Can you imagine the outflow of money
from the pockets of Indian parents into advanced countries?
2. The semi-finished goods are finished in advanced countries and put to their national development paying them sumptuously, providing them appealing quality life, etc. Is it not a good business?
Though we consider this migration as "Brain-Drain" which is true, some of our leaders term it as "Brain-Bank"! One can make deposits in advanced countries but no permission to withdraw!
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. Even in India, there are many families the youths of which spend 1-2 years as RSS Prachrak first and then join the mundane world. One will find many officers in Indian governance who were "Prachakak".
I remember 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.
Is it possible under this environment to enact like Germany? Can we stop brain-drain?

1. The country fails to provide enough opportunities of decent employment
2. The country fails to provide enough compensation or salary to its highly educated and experienced employees
3. The country fails to provide simple services such as water, electricity and healthcare
4. The country fails to provide a healthy working environment and a decent life style and comforts
I immigrated to USA in 1980s because of a very simple reason- economic. I was lucky to escape the black hole of hopelessness One cannot live on a false pride based in our great heritage, culture, intellectual capacity and all that identity crap? As Bill Clinton said "It is the economy, Stupid?"
In this new century, the brain drain from India will naturally diminish because of improvement in economy, expansion of job opportunities, improvements in infrastructure, healthcare, and services. Only better quality of life in one's own country can reduce brain drain.
