POOR rich DEJECTED shining …BhArAt
[…. As the rich and the well-heeled made preparations to ring in 2007 in style across a new, shining India, a sleepy, poor housing area – Nithari – almost ruined their party…this case illustrates best the most barbaric and basic truth about the Indian state. That it has failed the country’s poor.
