These communists did strike in Kerala against computers sometime back. Their claim was that computers will cause unemployment and make human brain idle...

We cannot completely strike off what Communists said about rapid development. First and foremost thing one should understand India cannot be compared to any other country. Technology is good, but it has to benefit the poorest to poor. Computers have definitely helped our life, but how far has it helped the poor or the rural. While urban people talk about so much advanced technology in computers, there are still people in India who doesn't know what a computer. Development should be uniform not just for the privileged classes. And to think does anybody use brain or fingers to calculate after computers have come. I don't see even anybody using computers ever writing in hand even if it is a simple one word. Doesn't all this means we Indians lose out the basic things when something new comes.

One has to wait for the turn. Development is not a overnight process. When one company is setup there are a number of people who get employed, starting from engineers to floor cleaner. Opportunities are there for everybody according to their talent. One cannot say that only engineers are benefited and not the others. Last of all if you are saying computers can 'think' for you I am sorry Mr. Balan you need to really spend some time understanding it before making such outrageous claims.
