The recent surge of outsourcing has been the source of many a cover stories in any publication worth its name. Below is just an example from BusinessWeek.

What a difference just a few years make. Just until few years ago, NRIs were referred to as Never Returning Indians. Now they are better known as Now Remorseful Indians .

Here is my tribute to the outsourcing with apologies to Hasrat Jaipuri.

Outsourcing

jaane kahaaN gaye vo din
karate the kaam kaaj hum
rahate the puree shaan se
chaahe koi nawaab ho
chaahe koi janaab ho
rahate hain pareshaan se
jaane kahaaN gaye ...

mere kadam jahaaN paD_e
hazaaro.n vahee LAYOFF hue
ek ke baad ek mere
saare iraade FLOP hue
jaane kahaaN gaye ...

sabakee nazar me.n aajakal
INDIA hee kaa khwaab hai
chaahe koi sawaal ho
INDIA hee jawaab hai
jaane KahaaN gaye ...
