Nitin, Hearty Congratulations to you on your achievement.
Secondly, it's a shame that instead of appreciating the kid's achievement, people are ending up mud slinging at each other. Some people simply age, don't grow. Cheers!!!!
The only true indian scientists who excelled for me atleast is C.V. Raman and Abdul kalam. All others including Khorana and Ramakrsishnan has ditched India to get US citizenships. Why do u call those cheats INDIANS?? they are americans!!!

Amal Kumar Roychaudhari..Has anyone heard of this brilliant scientist? Raychaudhari Equation is an important concept in General Theory of Relativity.
Firstly i complement him for a wonderful research paper. A number of times we appreciate Indians settled abroad having done wonders. But the point is, is he still an Indian or has he become an American citizen. If he is an American citizen we have no right to represent him as an Indian and boast about it. Good learned people leave our country and do wonder abroad, it is a shame that we cannot create an atmosphere for them to wonders while staying in there own country. finally we are the losers and someone else benefits from it.

Most Indian's live in fool's paradise. They think only Indian's who work in America has brains!! Just because few IIT'ans excelled in information technology field, there is nothing to boast about Indians or Indian innovation in US. All these Indian's came to America in late 60's and early 70's, studied in US universities and developed their skills right here in US, and achieved something. Show me one Indian who came to US and invented or achieved something here overnight ,. NONE!! Remember just this: All companies and innovation were invented here in America much before the immigration of so called talented and genius Indians, IBM,XEROX,MICROSOFT,HP,BOEING,COCACOLA,KODAK,NASA,GM,FORD,CHRYSLER,APPLE,WALMART,UPS,FEDEX, MERCEDES and many big corporations in America were established much before the genius Indian people moved into the great America. Indians only joined these great American companies for the sake of better future and better money and better living standards of the great America. And most important thing, in US Americans value and respect fellow human beings, no matter what colour you are. There may be exceptions, still Americans respect other nationalities. Can you expect this respect /decency in India?????

Don't you think your statements reflect your arrogance? I guess you live in US. How much ever you boast about US, your are Indian. You may deny that but your fellow American will still consider you are an Indian American.
Did not the organiser ask indian government before naming nithin ?. As per indian laws all affairs in respect of indians have to be cleared by Indian minister . the reply would have the award should go handicapped socially and economially to boost the morale of downtrodden. .. America is not partcipating indian campaign of socio economic justice
