New Delhi, February 27: Home away from home, how much of India is there is the US? A survey of telephone directory of Plainfield area, which is roughly as small as a Taluka in India, found 780 Patels, 200 Shahs, 134 Singhs, 50 Guptas, and a large number of Sharma, Rao, Reddy, Joshi and Kulkarni.



Another survey of telephone directory of San Jose in California found 280 Patels, 159 Gupta's, 115 Rao, 100 Singh besides a large number of Joshi, Reddy, Agarwal, Patil....

What more, there are 28 Indian periodicals in USA in English, four in Gujarati, three in Hindi, an equal number of Punjabi and one Konkani. "This shows the high magnitude of Indian impact in USA," says a new book "how to see, know and understand America" by Dr A V Saoji, G D Munshi and Dr Sanjay V Deshpande.

"In the year 2002, of the entire total 1063732 immigrants to USA from all the countries, as many as 66864 were from India. According to the US census, the overall growth rate for Bharatians from 1990 to 2000 was 105.87 per cent. The average growth rate for the whole of USA was only 7.6 per cent," say the authors.

well, USA needs Indians as they are very hard working, intelligent, great survivors and posess many qualities as human beings which is not found in other communities. USA needs Indians to run their country, companies, finantial institutions, educational institutions etc.

The fact is that most of the americans who are without jobs attribute it to the indians.
The indians have got the brains and the labour too comes real cheap
So most of the companies outsource.
There sure is a sizeable presence of indians every place in the world.
especially us and uk.
Certainly indians are going places but the problem is that india will soon run out of indians who want to serve the country

i do not think that is ever going to happen because the potential size of Indian brain and labour is enormous.

But with better pay in other countries (if i'm to believe what i'm told), does that mean the most talented Indians will seek work elsewhere?
