Who will take the first step?

The Pratham Club Bollywood Night is being organised on the LBS campus on 7th Feb, 2009. While it gives an opportunity to groove and dance there is a social consideration behind the show.
All money raised from ticket sales, after expenses, will be devoted to Pratham charity. It is an opportunity to support the Pratham team. Pratham is a public chariatable trust started in the slums of Mumbai in 1994 to tackle the problem of education in India. It has now spread its arm internationally with offices in various countries.

If only we could have more such organisations focussed on social issues and upliftment of backward areas. I do believe there is huge NRI community willing to support such causes, but we need more people to initiate and work on such noble causes.

The Indian Brain drain

India has one f the biggest working population, but have we ever given a thought about the quality of human capital and how much of it are we using for our own country. We have huge reservoir of engineers, scientists, managers working across the globe but how many are contributing to the Indian growth? Will India ever look at considering how to retain its talented pool? Will we ever consider doing something that contributes in our country's development? Where is our system lacking?
