They never appreciated you for anything good you did,but they've always criticised you for what you can't.

You loved them by all you can but they never saw the real you,
And you're expecting love?

Oh honey,this world is too harsh for a soul like you!

Samay Raina was right when he said, Zinda logon pe biography nahi banani chahiye, patience rakho, kya pata woh aage jaakar hagg de. Mary Kom just proved him right. 😭

Last night I spoke to a friend who left India years ago. We reconnected recently. She studied at BITS, got a scholarship for her master’s in Germany, and later on the German government funded her research on animal behaviour using computer science. Today, she has a full-time job there with a good package.

Cool. Happy for her.

But this isn’t a flex. This is a comparison.

In countries like Germany, research funding means funding actual research. You show up with a problem, data, methodology and a use case. The government backs you. Because they understand that science doesn’t need nationalism, it needs money and patience.

Now cut to India.

The Madhya Pradesh government recently spent ₹3.5 crore on “cancer cure research” using cow dung and cow urine. ₹3.5 crore. Tax payer public money.

In India, researchers struggle to get basic grants. Fellowships are delayed for months. Professors themselves discourage students from pursuing research because they know the system will not support them. If you want to do serious work, you are often told one thing very clearly: arrange your own funding.

Another friend, a classmate till 10th, went to IIT Dhanbad. Did robotics and AI. Got an internship. Finished graduation. Immediately got a job offer from Texas. Moved there. It’s been three years. Never came back.

Not because India didn’t need him. Because India didn’t deserve him.

This is the pattern

• Indian PhDs go abroad because fellowships here get delayed like train schedules.

• Top STEM graduates leave because research grants in India are buried under bureaucracy and political interference.

• Professors tell students not to pursue research because “government se funding nahi aayega.”

• Deep-tech startups register outside India because innovation here dies in paperwork.

• Indian-origin scientists lead projects at NASA, Google DeepMind after leaving Indian institutions.

And then we do this funny thing on internet. We clap. We tweet “proud Indian 🇮🇳”. After pushing them out.

Countries like Germany, the US, and France are aggressively hiring Indian minds. Not out of kindness. Because they know talent + funding = progress of their nation.

India, meanwhile, is busy deciding whether science needs evidence or belief. Studying animal behaviour using PyTorch and OpenCV sounds “useless” here. But finding a cancer cure in cow dung sounds “visionary”.

That’s not cultural pride. That’s intellectual bankruptcy. The scary part isn’t brain drain. The scary part is that no one in power seems embarrassed by it.

We’re not losing talent accidentally. We’re outsourcing our future, ₹3.5 crore at a time.

The real concern is not that India is losing talent. The real concern is that there is no serious urgency to stop it & without that urgency, slogans will continue to replace solutions while the future quietly moves elsewhere 🙏🏻
