How else can you describe some people trying to raise a
controversy around the fact that the LION logo of " Make in India "
initiative was designed by the Indian Subsidiary of an AMERICAN Company
?
Meaning ? National honour was lost ?
It speaks poorly of the Koop Mandook mentality of some
of us that Shri Amitabh Kant ( architect of Make in India initiative ) had to
" defend " this by tweeting :
" Logo has
been designed by young Indians led by an Indian creative director . This is an
Indian Subsidiary of W & K "
I get a feeling that those people trying to rake up a
controversy must be thinking :
" Ah ! This has to be some sinister plot of imperialist powers trying to subvert the
Indian democracy
Like the Trojan Horse of the past , American ( W&K
) capitalists seems to have conspired to defeat Indian manufacturing by hiding
evil software code inside that LION logo image , using secret Steganography "
These small-minded people are forgetting that :
* Some 16
million Indians ( largest diasporas in the World ), are working abroad
* Annually ,
they are remitting to India , approx $ 70 Billion
* Of these , 7
million Indians working in Gulf are remitting $ 40 Billion
* An
overwhelming majority of Indians working overseas are highly qualified
professionals
* Many are
occupying the CEO positions in big American Companies(Google / MS / PEPSI )
* A huge number of Indians are working in USA
subsidiaries of INDIAN Companies
* They are designing
world-class products / services for their AMERICAN clients , including
USA government ( Space / Defense / Energy Solutions / Cyber Security etc
)
* Many Indians
have even reached high ranking positions in USA government
* Deputy Prime
Minister and Finance Minister of Singapore, are of Indian origin
( country which
is always at rank # 1 in Ease of Doing Business
! )
* National
Health Service of UK is heavily dependent on Indian doctors/nurses
* Foreign
countries are proud of the contribution that Indians make locally in their
countries
* Even today , Americans are grateful that it was the COBOL knowing ,Indian Software
* Even today , Americans are grateful that it was the COBOL knowing ,Indian Software
engineers who saved the collapse of American
economy in 2000 , during Y2K crisis !
When will our narrow-minded citizens stop looking at
the nationality / language / religion etc of a person who is contributing to
our progress ?
Are they forgetting that, at the very heart of the
" Make in India " initiative is invocation of :
" ATITHI DEVO
BHAVA "
inviting FOREIGN companies to set up their businesses
in India ?
