Because there is no future or jobs or opportunities in India unless you are of a lower caste!

在印度没有未来，没有工作机会，除非你是低种姓!

Land of world's highest unemployment.

印度是全球失业率最高的国家

its peanuts for USA ....they should throw the garbage back to bodi india once they finish education

对美国来说，这点钱不算什么…一旦完成学业，美国人就会把这些印度人赶回去

why should Indian students leave the shores of our great country. We have the oldest university in the galaxy and great culture, civilization and Yug purush Modi as our PM. Instead let them spend those billions to improve our campus and system

为什么印度学生要离开自己伟大的国家?

我们有银河系最古老的大学，伟大的文化和悠久的文明，有莫迪这样出色的总理。还不如用这几十亿来提高印度大学的水平

Droid

why should people can have the resources to go abroad live in this filthy polluted overpopulated communal country? Feku is busy building statues and trying to get people to make pakodas.

有钱人可以去国外生活，为什么要留在这个肮脏、污染过度、人口过多的国家?

莫迪正忙着建造雕像，劝大家去卖帕可拉。

Grover

Most of the students travel abroad not only to study but also they get job and earn there livelihood . Govt should rather focus on jobs as higher education is much cheaper in India

大多数学生出国不仅是为了学习，而且是为了在那里工作、谋生。印度的高等教育费用便宜得多，政府应该把重点放在创造就业上

Rene Fernandez

Why are hundreds of thousands of Indians leaving our universities with the dream and hope of getting H1-B working visas or green cards or even US citizenship ??? This is reality that the educated young want to run away from Ram Rajya India as they enjoy the higher standard of living and decency in the US and other western countries where there is hope an assistance even if one is unemployed or old . India is a terribly polluted country when compared to the clean air of the west .

为什么成千上万的印度人怀着获得H1-B工作签证、绿卡甚至美国公民身份的梦想离开印度?

受过教育的年轻人想要逃离印度，他们想去美国和其他西方国家享受更高的生活水平，在这些国家，即使一个失业者或老年人，也有希望得到帮助。

与空气清新的西方相比，印度是一个污染严重的国家。

This money would have been in the pockets of curropt politicians if it was in India. Better spend it in US.

如果是在印度，这些钱会落入政客的口袋。还不如去美国花。

They study there to get visa and job there. Since getting immigrant visa is being difficult, people are taking this route to migrate to US.

他们去美国留学是为了获得美国签证和工作。由于很难申请移民签证，人们就选择这一途径移居美国。

for India it is big cost brain drain. Who is bothered anyway?

对印度来说，这是巨大的人才流失。但有谁为之担心呢?

Sundip M

The US GDP is massive and stands at roughly US $ 20 trillion a year which is US $ 2000 billion. Hence the US $ 7.6 billion from Indians students is a drop in the bucket.

美国全国的GDP很高，每年约为20万亿美元。对比起来，印度学生贡献的76亿美元不过是九牛一毛，不必大惊小怪。
