Hello PMx, you still think that Indians are monkeys and can just satisfied by throwing peanuts. Have you looked at the % of Indians in the civil service and how many of us are discriminately badly, no promotions and position. No Indians can be the Dean or Head of Department in any our so-called Research Universities. Many of us are not offered Professor despite exceeding the requirements. Stop talking nonsense. If you really not wiling or cannot help the Indians, please keep quiet. Do not irritate us further.
