The funniest part in this column was <i>"At this stage it is useful to remember that all this happened despite the prime minister being a well-regarded economist."</i> As a finance minister manmohan did what he had to do b/c of Balance of payment crisis. He did the right thing then... but now what ? Is that all to manmohans legacy... or the rural employment gaurentee act and the failure left behind it would be a bigger part of the legacy Unless india wants to become into bangladesh we have

However, I think that Bangladesh has done well thanks to the funding provided by donor countries and agencies. The important thing in Bangladehs about free female educatiion is that both the present and previous governments have put their weight and seriousness behind the issue.
