Has the thought of getting back ever crossed your mind ?"<BR/><BR/>Many asked me the same question some 30 years ago, when I finished my graduate studies in USA in mid-seventies and was comfortably settling down with a good job in a small city in Mid-West America. I was one of the two Indian residents in that city (A decade later when I visited that city every other person I met in that long street was an Indian! The place was crawling with Indians!). But when conscripted friends of mine fight war in a SE Asia swamp ( A few young Indian residents were also called up - a lottery system operated then. Clinton sporting a beard quietly disappeared to Oxford! Young Bush wore a national guard uniform thanks to daddy's help and stayed put in Texas!) I was over 30, an 'old man' but when the friends returned from the war minus their limbs, Nixon was disgraced, the country questioning its moral imperatives, I thought it was time to return to India and to Mysore, but only to face the usual wrong sub-caste problem in my organisation!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
