Its indeed amazing that in 2008, people like Lalu and Mayawati can still triumph by offering nothing to people...just a chance for their caste to get preference...and lets not forget the Marxists...they offer Bengali's and Mallu's a chance to pursue the easiest living ever, with no work or progress needed. Prospering states like Gujarat and Haryana have 26 and 10 seats...impoverished, backward states like Bengal, Bihar and UP have 42, 40 and 80 seats. The odds are stacked against India, until people in those backward states get tired of electing people who offer them limitless short-term benefits.

Mr. Gautier, we know we have problems in India. Many problems. But, don't poke your white nose here. Go back to France, where your playboy, flamboyant Sarko is taking France for a ride. Try to solve your own problems first before "trying to help" others.
