Pravasi Bharatiya Divas has emerged as a wonderful forum to strengthen the bond between the diaspora and the people of India. It offers unlimited opportunities for India to gain from the skill and insight of the diaspora, who have been the pride of India across the world.

This forum seeks inputs on how to further sharpen the focus of Pravasi Bharatiya Divas for the overall development of India. Share your views on what more can be done to make the interaction between the NRIs and the Government more productive and impactful. How can India receive more investment not only from the diaspora but also from the world at large?

If you find global best practices of how various Governments have been innovatively engaging with their diaspora through such summits, you can share the same here too.

Please increase the limit to bring in foreign exchange from USD 5000 to USD 20000 for all NRIs and Foreigners. They spend this amount in local market and hence boost local trade. Also, as Travellers' Cheques are now not preferred, the cap on bringing in currency notes should be removed and the person should be allowed to bring in total quota in currency notes without any declaration. The rule to obtain CDF from customs should be done away with or should be relaxed up to USD 20000 / trip

I think older retired NRI's would like to serve the country and basically their village/towns. There should be small projects where they can contribute their time and resources. These could be development of school, solar power, etc. There should be a platform where they can connect to local MP's. For the younger NRI's they should be able to donate and provide technical inputs for various issues. Their contribution should be acknowledged. It should be made easy for them to travel to India.

NRI/NRI groups should be invited to adopt a village as proposed to MPs & MLAs. Every year, "100 best villages" contest can be organised to encourage the stakeholders. and in 5 years all villages shall be developed. Even the Indians can also be engaged in adopting a village as there are many of us who have roots in villages but settled in cities.

The Threat of Ebola. It is too real to be ignored or to be underestimated. A proactive action strategy is quickly and effectively put in place at all levels of health administration, the threat of catching an infection and subsequent spread of the virus is highly possible in a country as populated and having a social structure like India. It is heartening to note that the Health and Transport Ministries are working round the clock maintaining a strict vigil at our Airports an
