Chetan Bhagat

writes the Time 100 for Dhoni here

I take exception to this statement

Dhoni is now universally acknowledged as India's best captain ever. 

Really? Isn't that too much of a stretch! Anyway

Did you know

that a large percentage of tax money is spent this way.

Congress is awesome or what and still every educated indian will vote for Congress. The irony!

I think voting for Congress is a way to make you feel superior, I care for the secular freedom and not for economic freedom which isn't as cool. Unfortunately, the lack of economic freedom makes the lives of the poor so worse that its not worth. but what the hell the educated middle calss have their misguided hyposcrisy of secular governent. They are happy. Congress gets to ruin India the way they have always done. isn't that sweet for everybody. Oh sorry we forgot to poor guy on the street. Well, who care s/he is always screwed!

Salil does it again

In his piece on the moralists of India against corruption in his piece Standards for moralists - Columns. The piece orchestrates some of own opinions on Team Anna.

How idiotic are these guys

So a car accidnt happens, the parents are not informed of their child's death because they are heart patients. Now we ahve a news article that is plublished clealry writing that. I mean what if the parents browse the net and see this news? I am amazed!

Isn't the author naive to expect

Congress will learn from the past. 

A nice piece highlighting the misplaced priorities of congress with regards to Indian growth

Some excerpts

The chaos and incoherence in government and society alike is the product of a profoundly misguided vision, one that visits and revisits India every now and then. The first phase of Indira Gandhi’s ascendancy, from 1969 to 1974, was marked with similar developments— socialist rhetoric, nationalization and, yes, anti-corruption movements. Later, in 1980, she effected a course correction. Little, it seems, has been learnt from that experience. From a Marxian vantage, a farce has been re-enacted.  

Jay walking

Got a ticket for Jay walking. Pretty painful. Anyway!

Not as fashoinable

to state your opinions on the farm produce rotting compared to elegant crap you can write on the "La Tomatino" festival. People will have huge discussions on produce (tomatoes) being wasted for other people`s fun, but I don`t see simialr discussion when lack of basic transportation and storage facilities result in much larger losses. Well, thats the Indian elite for you.
