India Untouched

I started another blog and left this one out...

Here goes...
I was on vacation and read a book called India Untouched. The sorry details of rural poverty in India. The apathy of the government and the complete despair that the people face is chilling.

We have the best combination of PM and President today. Can they find a solution? How do we address the social, economic as well as the cultural ramifications that have led to this situation?

India shines in her knowledge economy, can we use our abilities to also alleviate the problems of rural India? Is there an answer here?
