Diasporic communities have historically maintained—either actively or passively—their ethnonational identities, be it in the case of classical diasporas such as the Jews or Armenians or the case of more modern diasporas such as the Indians or other South Asians. However, the ethnonational identities of diasporic communities have strengthened significantly in recent times as a result of the global forces such as the Internet that created and recreated the existing and newer ways of transnationalism and ethnonationalism. The study of the Indian diaspora is inherent because of the fact that these global forces have drastically changed the ethnonational identity of Indians in the diaspora. There are a plethora of factors that played an important role in this process of transformation. This article tries to examine two of the most significant factors that strengthened the ethnonational identity, such as the dynamic changes in the Indian government policy towards diaspora and the role of the Internet that facilitates the youth to play a prominent role in this neo-diaspora.

流离失所的社区在历史上一直主动或被动地保持着其民族民族身份，例如在犹太人或亚美尼亚人这样的古典侨民中，或者在印第安人或其他南亚人这样的更现代的侨民中。然而，由于诸如互联网之类的全球力量创造并重新创建了现有的和较新的跨国主义和民族主义主义的方式，流离失所者社区的民族身份在最近得到了显着增强。对印度侨民的研究是固有的，因为这些全球力量已大大改变了侨民中印第安人的民族认同。在这一转变过程中，有许多因素起着重要作用。
