NRI returned to India from Ireland told about problems of electricity, pollution and traffic; Debate broke out on social media

Ireland vs India : An NRI, who returned to India after spending three years in Ireland, wrote such things on his ex-account, which have sparked a huge discussion on social media. This young man named Akash Tiwari told that the things which he never worried about while living abroad, have become his biggest problems after coming to India.

He started the post with electricity and said that there is a power cut of 4–5 hours daily in Kanpur. Even at the time he was writing this post, there was no electricity in his house. In comparison, he said that in Dublin, Ireland, there was power outage for 15 minutes only once in three years, that too for changing the meter and the company had informed about it a month ago.

Moving back to India 🇮🇳 has brought so many issues in my life, that I never had to worry about in Ireland 🇮🇪

NRI told 3 increased problems in India

After this Akash raised the issue of poor air quality in India. He said that after the clean and clear air of Ireland, the pollution of India shocked him. Even breathing feels difficult amid fog, smog and heavy pollution. He also told that this is affecting his daily routine and health.

The third big issue he said was traffic. According to Akash, India’s “mad traffic and honking culture” is a stressful daily experience. He said that this is not only because of population, but is the result of lack of discipline, poor planning and laxity in discharging responsibilities. According to him, noise, crowd and indiscipline on the road are a constant bother.

Many people agree with NRI

The most talked about part of Akas’ post was the line in which he said that most of these problems in India are “man-made” and in fact they should not exist. He wrote that basic problems like power cuts, pollution and traffic take people away from the essentials of life and self-development. Thousands of people reacted to his post.

Many people agreed with him and said that even after paying so much tax, one has to fight for basic needs like electricity and water. While some criticized him, he said that it is not right to have expectations like Europe on returning to India. Many NRIs shared their experiences, while many Indians said that the country is slowly moving in the right direction.
