Dual citizenship for Indians

From : Dron Battan

Dear Sir/Madam,

Most NRIs and PIOs living in the US appear to be sellouts or chamchas. They are seen constantly praising anything American and criticizing everything Indian on many occasions. They seem to be carried away and purchased by American economic and tech power, and look back at their own motherland with disgust even though the mother gave them basic education which has helped them succeed in the USA. This is a disgraceful attitude and on top of this they ask for dual nationality and even long term visas. What a shame!

They remind me of low class plantation workers who left Indian land to go abroad for work and better opportunity and always criticize their own roots. They also send money to their poor relatives back home because they love their poor relatives, not India, although they hate everything Indian and call themselves patriotic because they remit.

Regards,

Dron Battan
