NRIs Returning to Hyderabad

Here, I\’m not a businessman, but I\’m an NRI, but I\’m still a student. After seeing the standards of the educational system of our country and comparing them to those of the foreign countries, what I felt is that our educational system is the tuffest of all. But the infrastructure may not be that great ( \"Yeah, of course, when there is over-population, definitely we need the tuffiest system, b\'coz we need to identify the best students\". But, the sad thing, I personally feel, is that over-population is causing all the problems in India - from brides, robbery, terrorists, unemployment, illiteracy, decrease in life-expectancy... All from the very biggest problems to the most silliest problem)... But, you see, our parents feel, if there is a school (even primary school) which has study hours more than any other school without any playing facilities, then that\’s the best school and gives importance to education. But is that school is really that good??? You need some hours for relaxing also... But we can\'t blame our parents for that - we have to study, b\'coz tomorrow we want a job, which only the top students can get, and b\'coz there are only a few jobs left in our country. So when say over 100 are fighting for 1 single job, who will get that? Maybe the best student. That\’s what. So our parents want to see us happy tomorrow, so they are making us study at a very tender age... So we are made to study a lot at the school. After school, Inter. You have to get good marks in Inter & EAMCET to get into a good university. Then in University you are again asked to get Dist to get a good job. But still, after this many years of hard work, you still are not sure of getting a job... I don\'t say studying hard is BAD, but we are made to study the whole day, without any enjoyment - particularly in middle-class families... But, when I see the people here (not Indians, foreigners), they are enjoying their lives... My friends along with me here can\'t even multiply or divide (not all, but most of them), all of which are basics in math, b\'coz from their childhood they are made to use calculators and made to reduce the burden of their brains. They are not worried about getting good marks - they come to college & they will meet their friends, talk, then go back to home, play, enjoy with their families. They will open there books only before exams. When I asked them \"Are you not worried abt your future? If you study like this can you get a job tomorrow?\", then they reply, \"Why not? My aim is to pass in my exams, then I\’m sure I\’ll get a job\" I was amazed to hear that. Here, the govt feels that it\’s the govt\’s problem if it cannot provide jobs for its citizens. So, I felt that we (Indians) are actually missing a lot of fun & enjoyment in this life which is given to us by the Almighty!!! We are feeling the tension from childhood to our death, always worried about getting a good job, saving enough money for our children etc., instead of enjoying our lives by living peacefully. 
From that day, I thought, after making enough money (I\’m not that rich, BTW my parents are back in INDIA) I will return to my motherland, INDIA, & I\’m going to build two things 1) A good international standard school, with equal importance to both studies & sports, and 2) An international company (maybe IT, b\'coz, we Indians produce the most no. of IT professionals, but still all are preferring to go abroad - why can\'t we make our own multinational companies ). Both as not-profitable ones. 

I know how much we Indians (middle-class & lower class families) have to struggle to make ends meet. I know that there are some other countries that are in worse conditions than us, hope GOD helps them too. 

I pray to GOD, make me rich, I will definitely do this for my beloved INDIA. But what if I can\'t be rich enough to make my dream come true!!! So, I plead all the rich people in India help their fellow citizens to at least have their daily needs met.

Dear M2, Kudos, beautifully expressed, as a parent of school going kids I feel it on a daily basis, their childhood is being lost under the pressure of parents. I personally and all others pray that you certainly succeed in implementing your lofty ideals. Bless you.

Faheem bhai. there is something else; right now education and health care are the best bets at home. but what if you just made money !! think about starting a super class girl\'s schools in the old city. (something superior to Nasr and Rosary) and by the way don\'t think of burning boats yet, now you can enjoy dual status... you know.
