Indian wealthy class does no charity
The ignoble wealthy class in India has been stingy, uncharitable and ungenerous, no doubt on that. They love stashing money, all for them, their family and the later four generations to come. Never about others, it is always the me-and-my-family attitude. How I hate this greedy, close-fisted mentality of our rich and getting-rich businessmen. A [...]
Dangerous Pakistani spy caught in India ;-)
I love spy stories. The sagacity, sensitivity and sharpness of spies and their motives has always been intriguing to me.

Well that may be the case but I strongly suggest you to muse on the election of British Prime Minister David Cameron who became the youngest prime minister in 198 years history. [...]
Bihar politicians off to Switzerland..oops its Swaziland..sorry
Sam always believed like all other Indians that kleptocracy was doing great damage to the state of Bihar.
