I am totally in agreement with Mrinalda Talukdar (Mrinalda)! The NRAs have been criticising Assam and its system but how much money they send beck home? Infrastructure in Assam is very poor and these rich men could do a lot for its betterment. It's easy to criticise the bureaucrats or the politicians holding them responsible for the poor state of affairs. Organising seminars in Seattle or New York on the backwardsness of Assam is in no way going to mend matters. The NRIs from states like Kerala and Punjab are doing a lot for their natal states.
My point here is not to pull up the NRAs. They have established their credentials by dint of hard work. They have big brains and a fat purse. But if they can share a part of their money with the poor state of their origin it will serve a great purpose. I hope they don't take it as personal attack on them.
