PASSPORTS "RENOUNCED" BETWEEN 2014 and 2022
(TOI Online, TNN, Jul 11, 2024)

My 2 cents : "Surrendered" is more appropriate than " Renounced"
Parliament Stats :
DELHI - 60,414
PUNJAB - 28,117
GUJARAT - 22,300

B4 dat tiresome brouhaha about "Brain Drain" breaks out, d'ya have a Calc with multi decimals to figure out the 3 numbers above as a % age of 1.4 Billion ? 😁

Amidst the yelping, bitchin' & moanin' and the frenzied counter-fire, lemme say dat :

Have always held that "Migration is good for those who leave, for their descendants & extended families, as well as good for Mother India, good for the country they migrate to, good for the world".

Still hold that to be so and sure as Hell, I ain't gonna change !

😲 O - MY - GOOODDDDDDD ..... Is nothing sacred anymore ? 🤔

STUDENT VISA SCAM

An Indian student faked his father’s death to get a full scholarship to an elite US university.

ABC News said that he forged transcripts, financial statements & his father’s death certificate to get a full ride to Lehigh University in Pennsylvania. He also created a fake email address to pose as his school principal.

He posted on Reddit: “I have built my life and career on lies. I haven’t told anyone how I got to the point where I am right now. It would destroy everything I have,” He also explained how he scammed the system.

His post was anonymous, but a Reddit moderator figured out that Anand was a student at Lehigh. Arrested two months ago, he plead guilty to forgery. His admission has been revoked.

His crime carries a sentence of 10 to 20 years in prison. But the 19-year-old will only be expelled and deported back to India, thanks to a plea deal with the University.

STUDYING IN FRANCE

France has 66 Noble Prize winners till date. It also is the second highest winner of the Fields Medal (for Statistics). Speaks for its high educational standards, doesn't it ?

The first lady to win a Noble Prize was Polish born Marie Curie who, with her French husband Pierre, won it in 1903 (Physics) and went on to become the only woman to win it twice- that too, in a second field (Chemistry, 1911) and by herself, this time ! Amazing lady ! 💐💐🙏🏻

International students form 14% of the students in France (2022-23). In numbers, that is 412,000 International Students. Currently (APR 2024), there are around 8,000 - 10,000 Indian students in France.

President Macron of France, Chief Guest at India's 74th Republic Day Parade (2024) announced that he had set a target of inviting 25,000 Indian students to France by 2025 and 30,000 Indian students by 2030. He posted on X that :

"It’s a very ambitious target, but I am determined to make it happen"

TO ALL NRIs and OVERSEAS INDIANS :

No matter who you are, where you are and what you do, you have shown that INCREDIBLE INDIANS make Mother INDIA INCREDIBLE.

Thanks to all of you, India became the FIRST COUNTRY IN HISTORY to receive over 100 Billion US Dollars in Remittances (in 2022). Ref : the UN World Migration Report of 2024, Chapter 2, sub-section headed "Inward Remittances".

You folks remitted 111.22 BILLION US Dollars to India (at current prices) in 2022. You sent currency from all over the world, but International flows are accounted for in US $ only and hence the Cover Pic displays only the "greenback"

At 83.5625 INR : 1 USD, your remitted (in 2022) a mind boggling 9,289,068,423,067.53 that is 9.289 LAKH CRORE Rupees and change 😁

Table 2 of Chapter 2 of the Report (below) shows how you folks have really begun accelerate, leaving other Nations far, far behind ! Whoa ! Pl. ref. the fig.s for 2010. 2015. 2020 and 2022. Whoa again !

Thank you very, very much from 1.4 Billion (and counting 😁!) hearts. The profile pic today (May 13, 2024) shows those to whom you bring hope, a new life and a new future, as you continue to build a strong, new India !

God Bless you all ! 💐❤️😊🙏 Love, Peace and Namaste from India !

KINGSTON, JAMAICA
May 5 - 7 ish, 2024

HUMAN TRAFFICKING - CHARTER FLIGHT FROM DUBAI WITH 218 INDIANS & UZBEKS DETAINED, GERMAN REGISTERED A-340 AIRCRAFT IMPOUNDED, PAX SENT BACK TO DUBAI.

When questioned, some said that they were headed to :a construction project" in Nicaragua ... yeah, right ! ... Others said that they were headed to Canada ... yeah, yeah, right, right !

Rem the 313 Pax on a Romanian registered charter flight that was sent back from France to Dubai in Dec 2023 ? And the ghastly "Dingucha" tragedy ? Seems that the Hyderabad based mastermind with 15 years' experience of Human Trafficking had sent several chartered flights to Nicaragua in 2023 and, as told by a Punjabi Agent to the media, "around 500 to 600 Indians from all over India had been waiting in Dubai during Dec 2023" to board future flights ...

With millions of legal routes to migration, who needs illegal routes ? And why ? Obvious multiple answers, right ?
