Being an Indian myself I would agree with SMS that most Indians try to immigrate here.
I actually would like to disagree here. Yes definitely the people coming from very interiors of India find even New Delhi/Noida/Bangalore etc. attractive and they prefer to settle over there. Same is the case for Singapore. But this is case with few people. I've had so many friends who've just left Singapore once they get a good experience to earn a better salary in India. (Yes expensive house rent is one of the reasons.)
I've had a word to many of Indian colleagues and found, whoever has his assets in his home country wouldn't like to take the citizenship of USA/any other country. They're here to earn, and the country gives them opportunity to do that( and gets 10-20 productive years of their life in return). Its as simple relationship as it is.
Even in my place in India, I've seen huge developments within past 5-10years only. There was a definitely a time when India was geared up in positive direction. India is now trying to come out from the clutches of long-standing endemic corruption.
And with so many developments going on in India, the country hopefully is ready to fight perhaps the final decisive battle against corruption soon.
