Indian Hypocrisy

Since the US government and senators started imposing a ban on H-1 B hiring for companies looking for revival through bail outs, every Indian reporter, columnist, economist and even common bloggers started criticizing the protectionist move.

Even I criticized that protectionist move, as obviously, protectionism is not ONLY harmful for foreign workers, it is harmful for US and US citizens too.

Yet, whenever I read any criticism from Indian columnists, reporters and bloggers, one question kept hitting my mind, Why this hypocrisy?

After all, what USA senate is trying to do, is it something new which Indian government is not already doing?

Actually such sort of protectionism is nothing but similar kind of "Reservation" Indian government imposes on Indian citizens and they accept it with open heart, by providing reservations on the name of caste, creed, religion and class.
Here, US government is providing reservations for US citizens. it should be nothing new to Indians. Actually, there were days when Indian Government was learning reasonable, right and good from USA government, now situations are opposite, USA government is learning irrational, wrong and worst from Indian government.

Any Indian blogger, reporter, columnist, who is criticizing American protectionism although he supports reservations, subsidies etc by Indian government, is a big liar, and hypocrit and nothing else.

As for me, I oppose any sort of governmental interference.
