Know your country / traditions

Most students outside India go on a full/part gap year, where they travel in different countries, sometimes coupled with small work assignments/jobs in new places, meet new people, understand new culture.

It would be really great if Government of India/Gujarat can create tailor-made packages for such students, coupled with paid work assignments in various areas. For students from overseas, it would be a fantastic opportunity to know their ancestor's place, will give them a strong appreciation of their own culture, food, festivals and life in general. For the host state, apart from some foreign exchange earnings, it will provide them with life-long ambassadors and investors in years to follow.

Can a bug be bugged?

Imagine a scenario where a bacteria has caught fever as its been infected by a virus or has got an allergy.

Imagine if UK's bugs catch cold when they come to India...and they die..leaving the person healthier..!

Weird...isn't it??
