A Conversation with Dr. Ali Hussain Rajput It was very motivating to read Dr Rajput`s endure. It`s also a motivation for all the students pursuing their education in foreign countries under all the diffculties to know that struggle does bear fruit and difficulties will be over sometime.

It`s also unfortunate to know how much talent we lose. But is it only the institutions ( Ministry of Health in this case) which are responsible for this or do the individual also carry some part of it ? Yes, we surely have problems, but who will solve them? If the talented people keep on finding their homes abroad, then the people at the helms of the affairs back at home will remain more or less the same about whom we complain now.

May be it`s quite difficult going for a job one thinks paying much lesser and perhaps also much lower than one`s abilities. But then we love our country, isn`t ? It may be quite frustating at the start, but hard work pays and it pays everywhere in world. Also when one sees the children of immigrants growing being pulled apart by two societies (unforunately many of them lose this duel without any mistake on their part), then perhaps this decision to return does not remain that bitter.

Note:-

This is an opinion and must not be treated as critism any way on Dr Rajput. His achievements are applaudable and his circumstances are and were known best only to him.
