Some Hard Facts

So the Indian Left claims all of their politicians are honest, non-corrupt and concerned with the weak and down-trodden. How much of it is true, however, remains to be seen, or maybe not just seen, to be understood. If I start talking about how much the left has done against India I don't know how many days it would take me to put the complete thing here.
West Bengal, one of India's first developed states has been on its way down ever since the Left started its rule there. Today it is one of the 'developing states' in the country. India's intellectual capital, Calcutta (or Kolkata, whatever!) has produced some of the most brilliant minds for India. It was the capital of the British India once, just get out of the Howrah Station and see it for yourself.
Anyways, I really am not going into that right now. I found out this interesting article about a study done by two of India's well known economists. Go ahead and read it, and as for other stuff done by the Left, let me assure you, there is not one issue that you consider not good for the country that hasnt been advocated, preached and practised by the Left.
Take a look...

ha..!!!
i just love the part regarding the conditions laid down for d appointmenta physical instruction teacher. It so succiently typefies what ails aur educational system. I remeber once shekhar gupta himself remarked that the fact that if someone as him passed his B.Sc. coursewith a distinction goes along to prove that something is seriously wrong with our system.
One reason why we as a nation have not been able to produce scientists, adventurers..or even leaders ,( plz rem , the mahatama the only true world leader india has ever produced ws a product of english system ), is because independence is stifled..it is seen as an aberration which should be arrested at any given price..,
