[Assam] NRI hiccups in India

Wed Dec 20 18:24:47 PST 2006

SInce the kids were from US --the US benchmarks should apply. Once the immigration people have taken the decision even the US president cannot overturn thhat decision. The visa officer /Port of entry officer is the final authority. Her word is final.

  So should be for India.

  Not plain common sense-which is not common in India. Leaderships minds are totally blocked-nor allowed by the rules-in this age of instant universal communication in Hi-Tech nation India solving worlds' needs in communication!
   Even Sonia Gandhi/MMS/Kalam should have intervened and welcomed the boys!

     BTW, rude is not the right word, and comparison to NRIs behavior does not make in this case.
     Is there any lesson we learnt 
from the case?
     I think Yes! 
     Sorry, nothing can be done about it. We are Indians, unpredictable and insensitive Indian middle class, ever.

     Here the govt official is rude but aren't NRIs rude too when they wave their American 
passport and demand special treatment in India? White skinned people do not behave like Sahibs and Memsahibs anymore in India
