Dear

:
Each
one of you have considerable influence over the Government officers in charge
of framing policies
As
leading " Opinion Makers " ,
your contribution in Transforming India , is invaluable
If
you believe that my suggestion detailed below , merits consideration , then I
request you to support it in whatever way you feel appropriate
One
of which could be , forwarding it to your employees / contacts !
Who
would not be proud of ,
"
Make in India " logo ?
With
regards,

Land of Koop
Mandooks ( Frogs in the Well ) ?
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
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 ?
