Migrant Bihari labour in Assam!

Posted on February 21, 2007 by V.Isvarmurti

Ethnic issues and  uncertainity of the future. That Indian development is uneven, is recognised but no one speaks out. That is the tragedy of our leadership. The Congress party was in power for long and it is the party that brought about centrally-sponsored development planning  and yet in its long years of power, it has…

More tensions, violence and challenges in the rural India.

Posted on February 20, 2007 by V.Isvarmurti

Ethnic social issues and a feeling of uncertainty of the future. Migrant Bihari labour in Assam.   And this senseless tragedy! That Indian development is uneven is recognised but no one speaks out.

CPM’s dilemma in West Bengal!

Posted on February 20, 2007February 22, 2020 by V.Isvarmurti

The Stalinist cult of “collectivised” agriculture, call it by what name you like, that had entrenched the idlers in the vilages, panchayats and land holding patterns!

Going about the development debate!

Posted on February 19, 2007 by V.Isvarmurti

Is Rural India losing out? Urbanisation, creation of new suburban cities, future of the villages! Readers of this column must have had the feeling that we are dumping down our own individual views on what constitutes the genuine rural development vision. We don’t have any ideological individual view or vision as such. Rather our view…

Inflation: is it economics or politics?

Posted on February 19, 2007 by V.Isvarmurti

High Inflation comes to haunt  the Government! Coalition politics to populist policies lead to inefficient economic management? To borrow a historic phrase from Karl Marx, “the spectre “of inflation is assuming serious dimensions! There is an intriguing silence at the top. Everyone is clearly worried and we assume there is  desperate action, though behind the…
