It will be interesting to learn about these INDIAN VALUES, if someone
has what it takes to enumerate them .

i agree with you that only generations (age 30-40) are coming back
and also i meet so many people in delhi who returned and their main
reason is that they want their kids to learn indian values and
remain in indian culture and ofcourse they are getting good salary
in India

Pradip-da,
You are surely mistaken about Indians returning to India due to
cultural aspects. It is true a lot of first generation Indians may
be nostalgic about not being able to attend weddings and funerals
and other festivities of their near and dear ones - with whom they
grew up - in India. But second generation Indian Americans are very
much at home in US or UK or wherever they grew up -- just like
village immigranst childrens growing up in Indian metros.
Moreover, an increasing number of Indian immigrants are more used to
Western mores than are used to traditional Indian arranged wedding
and joint family system.
See this movie - whose script was considered orginal creative work
by Oscar awarding body to be displayed in their library
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salaam_Namaste
this movie is about an increasing trend - Indian (boy-girl ) couples
living together in the same room- like atleast five-ten in my
apartment complex itself. Unlike the movie however, it is not clear
about how many are actually living as unmarried couples (in every
sense of the word) --it makes you doubt the extent of their emotions
then :-)
Nonetheless they are all quite happy and outward, positive looking.

Or is it really due to this:
<Since the beginning of summer, the number of calls has nearly
doubled, to a hundred or so per day -- the most ever, except after
hurricanes.
When the construction industry was first slowing, much of the demand
for social services came from Latino immigrants, laborers who found
themselves without an income. Lately, however, "it's everybody,"
Fuelcher said. "It runs the gamut of economic status."
That has made hiring easy at some stores. When times were good,
Baer's Furniture could not find enough staffers. When the retailer
recently posted openings for two sales people, it got 170 applicants.
There are signs that these problems are seeping into many regions of
the country. Job growth was halted in August as the nation shed
4,000 jobs, stunning economists who had not thought that the housing
bust would so dramatically affect hiring.>---- (Today's Washington

Indian IT professionals in US return home
September 11, 2007 11:24 IST
With India becoming a favoured destination of several multi-national
companies, thousands of Indian IT professionals in the United States
are returning to their homeland with good pay packets, according to
a survey.
The survey conducted by Indus Entrepreneurs, an association of
Indian IT professionals settled in the US, found that around 60,000
professionals have returned to India in recent years, Michael M
Bala, Business Head of recruitment portal clickjobs.com, said.
Several couples in age group of 27 to 35 were looking forward to
come back to India, he said, quoting the survey.
"Most young Indian couples preferred to return to India to protect
their kids from the Western culture and to educate them in Indian
atmosphere," he said.
Infrastructure development and job opportunities at the more or less
same salary in India were cited as the factors behind the trend.
Bala, who recently conducted a job fair in New Jersey to recruit
personnel for multi-national companies, said more and more Indians
were coming forward to return to their motherland with the country
becoming favoured destination of several MNCs, financial
institutions and IT companies.
"The growth of these institutions in India have thrown open the
doors to talented people, who had so for thought that the West was
their only resort," he said.
In the recently held job fair, over 3,000 people, mostly couples,
had come forward to attend interviews for companies like Yahoo,
Canon, IBM and HP, he said.
Encouraged by this, the portal would be conducting another fair in
the US within six months, he said.
