A Reddit post of a 25-year-old Indian-origin Canadian citizen has gone viral as he detailed why he wants to come back to India, although he spent only 11 years in India and the majority in Canada. He said he visited India in 2021 after a decade, but since 2021, he has visited India around 10 times, and every time he felt good revisiting his childhood memories. “India has its flaws, I get it, but so do these western countries. I personally do not see a happy future for Indians in general in the West. I want to start a small business in India until I get my inheritance and then eventually live off that,” the techie wrote, seeking opinions. And there started the virality as most of the Redditos in the comment section termed the realization of the man as “enlightenment” that Indians are missing and whining about their country. Some users, however, have a different take on moving back to India and advised that if Canada feels stagnant, he should take advantage of Canadian citizenship and should try to explore Europe, East Asia and not India.

The Indian-origin techie also laid out his future plan in the viral post adding that he wants to buy a property in India and does not want to get married. As the post went viral, the techie added that Canada is a great country and, in fact, one of the best on the planet and is also his home since he spent his teens there. “That being said, India.. feels like my cultural home and feels like “MY” country if that makes sense. The sense of belonging once one returns to India after being away for a while is uncanny. The West is great, but so is India and frankly the west cannot offer what India offers to *INDIANS*,” the post added. The major takeaway from the advice that he received was there is no fix-all solution for this situation as there are many who regret moving back to Canada and many who do not.
