NRI Techie Claims Some Indians Abroad Discourage US Studies Over Job Competition
An NRI tech professional, Amarnath Shivashankar, claimed that some Indians living abroad discourage students from studying in the US due to jealousy and fear of increased competition for jobs. He advised students to carefully consider university choices, costs, and job prospects rather than rejecting studying abroad based on such warnings. The discussion reflects concerns over visa rules, job markets, and immigration, with varied opinions on whether Indian students should pursue education in the US amid these challenges.
