Is the situation in India really so unpromising? I thought they had good education, good talented people (Hey, one's a great Chess chanpion), certainly a big population, a growing middle class, etc. I thought they were quite on course to becoming a modern industrial state, with wealth trickling down on the social ladder, as well. But now you say that the young people are having little choices... Is it that there, too only a few in society participate in the economic progress or process? And the rest is still confined to low jobs, begging, etc.? Is the system of casts still alive and present in everyday live? E.g. when applying for a new job or a place in university or school? I would never imagined that bureaucrasy is really such a drag there.
Guess I'll have to go over my books - or this thread mor fully...
