1. You (Amulya) would have been put in jail for writing this article.
2. I column never have read your article. Being the second child of my parents, I would never have been born since India would have adopted China's one child policy.
Mr Ganguly, another one of your anti-left rhetorics.Try answering this question, why whole South America is turning left?..Will wait for your next junk..Till that time..ttyl
Nice reading, though I was having panic attacks going through the article. One may do a little study as to why the middle class bengali and keralites are so prone to become red indians. Any idea? Thanks.

Dear Ashootosh,
I'm a Punjabi from Background and in any manner not a bit supporter of CPM/CPI, as far as ur contradiction to the moderen India (read IT/Bio-Tech/CAD-CAM) is concerned, Our Leftist has not learn any thing from the Past. How else can you say that they are the one who take the needy things to the grass root level in the far reaching areas of our vast Motherland.
China for that Matter has endorsed the new technology and is now the Manufacturing Hub for the whole world. USSR is a failed concept today and even Russia has accepted the Democratic values. We live in a practical world where every thing has to be seen essentially in the Pragmatic way. U can't reach to every body in the nation to have food for them, but yes u can creat resources in the nation that every body gets some benifts right upto the grass root level.
Leftist are still living in Past and are not learning from the past mistakes.
There is one idiom Those who dont learn from past, will get perished in future. I shall say for from Shri Maad Bhagwat Gita "Vinaash Kaale Vipreet Budhhi"
It seems that writer's views are totally biased. What you all have imagined might be true but you forgot the list of positive side of Marxist's approach. Lets not forget out of more than 500 MPs in parliament, 25% of them have criminal backgroud except left parties. Only left parties have plan for social justice. Other parties are just doing their own good. When you talk about no mobile phones, IT and other industries. Yes, all these things have changed the life of big cities only. What about poor people still waiting for basic facilities to be provided by the government in rural areas. Here is all the difference.
This article should be an eye opener who think of left as some sort of saviour.Leftists ideology has been dead and buried throughout the world but our great lefties just dont let it go.
