The scale of hypocrisy between the Indians that worship cows while at the same time subject them to extreme cruelty is simply unimaginable. The laws in India are inadequate and even those that exist are hardly implemented leading to a cycle of animal cruelty and abuse that will shock anyone among us. The Indian principle…
Everyone is aware by now of the incredible scale of corruption engaged by the organizing committee of India’s Commonwealth Games 2010. Millions have been siphoned off into the pockets of the organizers and their relatives. What is even more shameful is that a lot of money reserved in the budget for the development of the…

Stories of rape, molestation and even harrassment abound, but are rarely reported. As P Vasudha says, Indian media should definitely give women’s issues more…
It makes such a heart-rending story that has made the headlines of all the major newspapers in the world – the story of a poor girl who committed suicide because she could not have lunch. Sania Khatun is just the tip of the iceberg – it seems that 50% of India’s children are malnourished. And…
