These bastards along with the Bania's kept the country under competitive for nearly 50 years post independence. Natural resources are country's ownership, and these guys are efficient at claiming it as their own and making money out of it. The Indian masses are the most illiterate when it comes to knowing and assessing their business leaders.</p> Jains are the Godless Jews of India.

Don’t be an ass. This is a South Asian blog, not an Indian blog. It’s supposed to include Pakistanis, Indians, etc. Putting up an Indian nationalist map would make no sense, as it would signal this is an Indian blog. Which it isn’t.

That said, I doubt Manish put up that particular map up on purpose. A happy accident, most likely.

I was politely taken to a different hotel upon arrival in Udaipur even though I had made reservations 5 months in advance at the Lake Palace hotel. I ended up really liking the Shikarbadi hunting lodge I stayed at (among other things, their restaurant was excellent), but I was somewhat miffed that the Agarwal/Mittal wedding party had managed to steal my hotel room. It seems the Shikarbadi was packed full of people turned out of the Lake Palace and Shiv Niwas by the Agarwals and Mittals.</p> I learned a lot about who has money in India when I was traveling there.

Vikram, I have no intention on going on a tangent. What exactly did I presume?. How did my logic suggest that you were posting with a false name? You very well could be Vikram Seth. I don’t think I disagreed anywhere.

First, I see ignorance again and again on your behalf.

Vikram Seth would never write like that.

Manish used the map which is used by Forbes. He didn’t search from google and used it. Its an article in Forbes, using the map in Forbes. Plain and simple.

I never said he googled it. Yes it is from Forbes, so what? All said and done, he still had a choice to not plug the image or post a disclaimer.

What makes you say map is wrong and he did it on purpose? Please don’t be ridiculous. It upsets me to see map like this but doesn’t mean I would start blaming them. Write to Forbes please about it if you must.

It doesn’t matter, ignorance is not an excuse on the internet. I am not being ridiculous, I might have accused him of negligence and complacency. What makes you think I have not written to Forbes?
