The number of Indians giving up their Indian citizenship has been increasing steadily over the years. In 2022, a record number of over 1.8 million Indians surrendered their citizenship, so we wondered why that's the case and how locals feel about this.

Not covid not anything else. The war started in 2022 when covid was not severe anywhere. it was a matter of survival in that case. But the people who moved out of India during corona, it wasn't a matter of survival for them. The only people who moved out of India were the rich 1% Indians, moving to Maldives, and other vacation spots during covid. It definitely wasn't a matter of survival as they already had every resource required to "survive" in India. It was a matter of luxury.

I'm not Indian but I think it's safe to say that most of the people that give up their citizenship do that because of a lack of support from the government, the uncertainty about the future in this country, and overall quality of life. Also, many "developing" countries have really weak passports meaning you can't even see and experience the world. Your citizenship definitely affects how you're treated in other countries, which obviously is very wrong but unfortunately, that's the world we live in.

No, ISRO does not have phenomenonl jobs in space science because their primary focus is on design and development rather than space research, as AIRES and Hanle Observatory do. You can enter as a Scientific assistant or a Scientific officer, but their primary work is on the development side. There is very little research and observational work done there.

I am second generation indian living in the US. My parents immigrated to America and I grew up here but never felt really American. People often leave for greener economic opportunities but there is something said for culture and civilization. Now my parents are old and quite lonely. I feel they would be happier if they retired in India. I also wish I could spend time in India... Sometimes money is not everything. India is the most rich country in the world in terms of culture, history, religion. I think young Indians should know this and improve Bharat first instead of leaving...

[@SodiumSyndicate]

You understand the value of civilization because you saw the lack of it in the West despite material pleasures. Let these greedy Indian youth go through it. Their children will learn the lesson like you did. My parents returned back to India in the 80s. My mother never liked returning as my father had a very high paying job - but my father was clear, as good as the West (especially West Germany), it was not his country & living in others' land was not self-respecting for him. While I initially agreed with my mother's attitude, in my late 20s I began understanding my father's masculine self-respect & now I share it. Live outside for a few years & then return to India to implement ideas - is my recommendation. Most Indians leave for the West to get the NRI tag & so called prestige among their family back home.

[@drodro7672]

You are a minority among NRI's children,... Most of them are already integrated in their host (for them home) societies. Even you, you speak about "spending time" in India, not coming, setting and investing in it.

Few Indians are getting extremely rich, but the city infrastrcuture is pathetic, extremely polluted, and the politicians are extremely corrupt, in fact the most corrupt in the history of India. I would like to see my India prosper, but India is too big, it is beyond my circle of influence to fix the issues here, instead I am opting to migrate to safer heavens where quality of life is better there.

As an Indian studying in Europe, the main motivation for me and my friends to stay in Europe for sometime was more R&D opportunities, better work life balance and an interest to experience different culture. Mostly people stay back and give up the citizenship since it is not allowed to have dual citizenship in India and it is very difficult to go back and start everything from scratch. If I ever decide to stay back (hypothetically) it would be for the above reasons and never for "western luxury", "better way of life" and most importantly "better pay". If I were to follow the latter I would rather stay in India itself. It's funny how some of these people just assumed everything would be better outside just because its not India, without even stepping outside their own country.

Obviously we are still a developing nation and that means we have a lot of shortcomings too. Just like the one this guy mentioned about the lack of proper infrastructure and work environment for R and D works or doing anything science or technology but we have come far. And if you think the currect trend in Punjab that is celebrating relentless materialism, show-off, women, alcohol, drugs, expensive cars, gun culture and immigration to foreign lands(west/kaneda) is healthy and quite "Indian/dharmika" you are highly mistaken. It is a part of a gradual and misplaced westernisation in the Punjab and to a lesser extent in many other Indian cultures which are slowly adopting, copying and idealising the worst parts of contemporary western culture rather than learning the better aspects from West like focus on science/technology/clean democracy/less ethnocentrism/etc. This is definitely a result of colonialism(which was never properly undone) and of Macaulayism(again never undone). So yes we have a lot of colonial agents and coconuts(wannabe white Indians) like you around this country and the world today.

I agree with that person who mentioned 'you do you'- as to me I believe 'quality of life' means where - my voice is heard & respected; - I am safe to travel to any part of the country/ city at any time of the day without being pressurised to buy an expensive private vehicle; - where I am treated as equal both in professional and personal /social settings; - where I am not judged on what I wear and with whom I socialise; where my basic needs as a human are provided and assured by the government irrespective of my income status; - where the society and the government policies provide a supportive environment to start a family; - where my future children could get quality education which will make them not only employable but also good and aware human beings (again irrespective of my income status) and - where I can breath fresh air and drink safe water easily available anywhere in the city/rural settings in the country. In a nutshell, the decision to leave Indian citizenship for any Indian is all subjective and results from a complex network of economic, social and political dimension.

Driving/walking experience is much higher. - Better public services: Most government offices function at higher productivity here than in India. You won't have to run from pillar to post just to get a few signatures from some government departments. - Better opportunities in non-IT field. In India, taking up a field outside of IT/Engineering is generally discouraged. But in the west, there is more respect for diverse fields. - Lack of air pollution and better maintenance of natural environments: It seems the West is doing a better job of maintaining cleanliness in areas of natural importance like rivers, forests and trails.

You can take the Indian out of India but never India out of the Indian. I lived abroad for 10 years, 3 years as a kid in New Jersey, USA and 7 years as an adult in Singapore. Generally speaking, Indians don't seem to adapt to local culture very easily. Food and social groups are the best examples of this. Some 99% of Indians I've met while abroad still want their dal chawal, pani puri, go to temples/mosques and more. In Singapore, only me and a handful of friends would eat locally and mingle with the local people, the rest stayed in their own little bubble. The bubble is further intensified by language/state - Tamilians will only hang out with other Tamilians, Punjabis with other Punjabis and more. Of course everyone is there for the high currency value that can make you rich in INR. Many of my classmates from school left to the US for college because you can get way better advanced technical education there than you can in India. We definitely lag behind a lot here. Anyway, I came back to India in 2017 and I am never leaving. I am not going to put the effort to go to another country. I love our culture, food, people, history and all her imperfections. This is my home, these are my people. I want the purpose of my life to do everything I can to help make India a better place (not doing a good job here but I'm working on it).

Many valid reasons pointed out by those who want to leave India in the video. As an Indian who gave up Indian citizenship for an Australian one several years ago, I would argue there are both good and bad points of leaving India and settling abroad. Life in foreign countries is not always easy as it seems even in Western countries like Australia where I live. Many new immigrants often work tough and hard jobs to survive. There is little or no support from family or relatives (lucky my family is with me) meaning you can feel lonely. Then there is a lack of identity (identity crisis) often coming from the lack of a sense of community, culture and religion which you enjoyed back in your own home country. First-generation migrants have it the hardest. These are just a few examples. Grass is not always greener on the other side. Sometimes even I ponder whether or not I should return back to India sometime in the future at least when I hit my twilight years. There are perks of moving abroad while there are also perks of staying in your home country especially if it is not war-torn.

The number one reason why Indians abroad renounce their Indian citizenship is because they don't have a choice, as India does not permit dual or multiple citizenships, unlike the US or EU countries. An American can hold passports from four other nations, but it is not legally possible for an Indian to have multiple passports or citizenships. On top of that an Indian can get OCI(Overseas Citizen of India) status document which basically grants a limitless visa to stay and work in India, just losing voting rights.

I mean as someone who is in the process of getting French nationality - having lived abroad for most of my life, I thank my parents for moving out because it gave me so many opportunities in almost every aspect of life. I studied in international schools and also learned a different language and many cultures. I feel Indian but I also feel like I'm French at this point for many reasons - I'm proud to be Indian and its sad that I would have to give up my citizenship - its stupid that they don't allow dual citizenship. But ultimately, I am not going to hesitate to give up my citizenship because it opens up even more opportunities with a European passport. I can travel freely, work freely across Europe. When you have an Indian passport you don't have these opportunities.

[@abrajitota3618]

India is unlikely to allow dual citizenship as it considers itself a civilizational state. I pay taxes as a third party, expecting facilities such as education, medical services, and civil engineering staff. However, with a significant portion going abroad, it feels like a betrayal to invest my taxes elsewhere instead of supporting my own country.

[@Saumiiiii]

@@abrajitota3618 To me this is very different - I have connections to India by blood but I have spent maybe 2 or 3 years there, during which we paid our taxes. One can feel like they are part of two cultures and countries at the same time. To me there's no sense of betrayal to leave a place for the growth of someone. Besides, my parents have always invested a good amount of their money back in India so why shouldn't we be able to be considered as both? I can speak the language of the country, I respect and follow the culture while also adding in the other cultures that I have picked up. To me not being allowed to stay as an Indian national is a bit stupid - considering giving up my passport makes me less likely keep connections in the future. And yes, I am aware the OCI is a thing - but with that it's literally a second class form of citizenship.

I personally think that Chinese don't care about mental freedom so much, as long as they have enough material satisfaction, like money... That's why most Chinese migrate to the US, Singapore & Canada rather than some European Countries with middle income level. They earn more and work less in the former. The GDP percapita of China is around $12000, pretty low compared to those of developed countries.

I think it's because most people find their peace outside India which I think is the biggest motivator. In India we all are thrown into this constant rat race to earn that social status, that tag before our names, with which we want to be known or our family wants to introduce us with. But no-one really cares about the people themselves. If you're not an IITIAN you're deemed a failure, if you're not doing MBBS from govt college you're deemed a failure, if you aren't an IAS officer again you're looked down upon, even though at the end of the day these people end up being slave under someone else earning above average income at most, all that torture just for the STATUS. No-one understand that for some people doing menial jobs might be the only way out, or some people might enjoy doing odd jobs as well. And I think that's the biggest contributor here, outside India no matter if you're a delivery driver, plumber, garbage man, street vendor, waiter etc. you're treated with respect just like any other person. This fact hits Indian people's inner core after years of being looked down upon by our own people and they end up giving up their citizenship without a second thought.

The poverty stricken Indians don't even leave their neighborhood at all forget migrating to other countries, that's the wrong narrative. Most of the Indian who migrate come from cities where the per capita income is in the vicinity of developed nations (between 20-30k $). The thing with Indian society is that we are thrown into this rat race of social status for jobs that pay just above average salaries and once Indian find out that they can escape that whilst still earning more(whatever the sum might be) that what they did after that torture, they choose to jump the ship. Environmental issues are there only in the major major cities and few outside it, government is problematic at some aspect,yes, but overall we still have most of our freedoms unlike China and have been successful in rallying the proud Indian sentiment, rules and regulations aren't strict at all as they should be, way less strict than China I'll you what. Overall we face same problem as any other developing/to be developed nation.

If I understand correctly, Indians are required to give up their citizenship if they decide to move to a different country because they can't hold dual citizenship? How would that work if they were born in India, they would no longer be an Indian citizen? But in terms of the motivations, I know there is a trend of highly skilled and qualified Indians that are moving abroad for better economic opportunities, it's a brain drain that affects a lot of developing countries. Those with the educational credentials will leave to seek better lives so all the country's greatest talent are fleeing.

I think it would be better to ask this question to Indian outside India, rather than asking Indians in India to speculate on it. The main reason why people are moving abroad is because of unemployment. And no, the growing economy is actually not doing much to retain the youth here, because the salaries are pathetically low, and the problem is compounded with our lower currency value. The cost of higher education is extremely high and many students will be in debt their entire life with the salaries they get in India and they are taking up jobs outside India despite the loneliness of leaving their family behind and knowing full well the challenges in those countries. The Indians who actually return are those who have made enough money enough money in those countries to have paid off their debt in home, bought a home and made a secure life in India or have make enough money to start their own business in India. And then there are other Indians who lost jobs during the recession and are forced to come back to India. Indian coming back to India only because of their remaining family in India, is not an achievement of the government and neither a proof that we are better off...it's honestly very disgusting to exploit the care people have for their family and use it as a badge of honor for the government. It's shameful when all we have to bring our youth back is holding them emotionally hostage qith their family

[@shivam_nagar69]

salary part is true but unemployment even after too much development will still be at a level of 4-3% while today it is at 6-7% it is also the fault of indians themselves, i heard how there were jobs created in private sector for engineers but there were no proper mechanical engineers, whoever applied wasn't a skill one many youngsters want govt. job and if they don't get one they destroy public stuff while protesting, govt. can't give 100 million govt. jobs, absolute nonsense Indian govt. failed at education level not unemployment, that's my take
