Lawyer's "Leave India" advice stirs up big online debate

India Dec 01, 2025

A recent post by lawyer Pranay Maheshwari on X (formerly Twitter) has everyone talking.
He suggested Indians should "leave India" and give up their citizenship for better opportunities abroad, saying other countries offer a better life for families.

Mixed reactions: Is the grass really greener?

The post got a lot of pushback—many argued that every country has its own challenges and that assuming life is easier elsewhere isn't realistic.
Some people felt it's more meaningful to stay and help build India's future, while others said moving abroad is a personal choice, not something to be taken lightly or made into a trend.
