If she is so proud of her Indian heritage why doesn't she return to India and be an Indian - then every Indian would have the right to celebrate - but before that ???? Hard to understand .

I am also sure that her mother would have told stories of how good life was in Gujarat Villages and how her MIL illtreated her. She would have also told Sunitha about the life in Villages, how one milked the cows , made cow dung and Cobar gas and how people took the bullock cart to see villages.

Comparing her to Rakesh Sharma is an insult to him and Indians. After all, she is an American married to a white guy. Since no one gave a damn to her space trip, visited India (after 9 years) for a week of fame (doing this is a shame).

I am also sure that she would have dated desi's and after some time felt that she must marry a white skinned guy to come up in life which she ultimately did. Also being in NASA did not / does not make her a God. She is just an ordinary person just like us and maybe she is dumber than some of us in the forum. She just had the chance (by providence or otherwise) to be in profession which is that of a rocket driver, where the number of rocket drivers are far less when compared to any other positions in the world.

My only regret for India is that, intelligent, talented people are not recognized when they are in India. Then they have to go settle abroad, they themselves or their next generation use the resources easily available here, are highly recognized in the foreign land. Then the indian govt wakes up. I am thinking about, nobel prize winner, Hargobind Khurana and many others not very well known indian origin foreign settled people.

If only India could preserve it's own talented generation to itself, giving them golden opportunities, these 'developed' countries provide ... oh well .. wishful thinking.
