Didn’t you get an opportunity?’ From Google, a lot of folks from my batch left for the US. I could as well. But I didn’t! Patriotism? Not exactly. I lost my father in 2021 and wanted to stay close to my family!” he wrote.

For a few years, just to get a taste of US working culture and because I am a travel freak. But ultimately, I would want to settle back in India only,” he added. In the rest of the thread, he talks more about the questions he gets asked for his choice and his answers to them. “Why? Not because I love India as a stateless entity.

I rejected it and was happy with my decision. It’s about living among our own people and our own culture. One should be satisfied wherever he/she stays. Bharat [India] gave me everything that I have today and I have a lot to give back,” posted an X user.“This is so relatable. Thanks for sharing,” added another. “Very insightful thread.
