I just realized that another one of India's 11 entries on the Nobelist list is Amartya Sen, a professor at Harvard in the US, who I should have included with the 3 other US NRI Nobelists. He grew up in India and went to school there; moved to the UK in 01953; alternated between the UK, US, and India until 01971; between the UK and US from 01971 to 01987; and he's been at Harvard ever since. He won his economics Nobel 27 years after his last stint in India, in 01998.

I wonder if he would have been able to do the brilliant work he has done had he stayed in India. The shameful affair at Narendra University suggests otherwise.
