Man Lays Down Reasons For Not Going To US, Netizens Say 'Relatable'
Aanshul Sadaria, who according to the post is a software engineer at Google, took to X (formerly Twitter) to share some reasons behind the move.
Visiting United States is always on the priority list of several people. And if there is an opportunity to go there and work for a specific period of time, not many people would like to miss it. However, a man took to social media to share about why he chose India over the US for a job. His post has now gone viral and sparked a lot of chatter.
Aanshul Sadaria, who according to the post is a software engineer at Google, took to X (formerly Tiwtter) to share some reasons behind the move.
"‘Bhaiya, why did you not go to the US? Didn't you get an opportunity?’ From Google, a lot of folks from my batch left for the US. I could as well. But I didn't! Patriotism? Not exactly. I lost my father in 2021 and wanted to stay close to my family!" wrote Sadaria.
Explaining further he wrote, "‘Would you ever go to the US in future along with your family?" Perhaps. For a few years, just to get a taste of US working culture and because I am a travel freak. But ultimately, I would want to settle back in India only."

Not exactly.
I lost my father in 2021 and wanted to stay close to my family! ❤️
Sadaria in the thread explains more about the reason for his decision to stay back in India.
He ends his thread by saying, "Why? Not because I love India as a stateless entity. But because I love everything that my country offers me. And I think that is another definition of patriotism."
Since being shared, the post has amassed, 35,000 views, over 500 like and tons of comments.
"This is so much relatable thanks for sharing!," commented one user on the post.
"Very insightful thread. Have a very similar view regarding working outside India," wrote another user on the post.
"I returned to India from Ireland and would never move out of India again. The housing, the cost of living, Indian food and the medical facilities in India are 1000 times much better here in India," wrote a third.
