		<description><![CDATA[How many times have you heard, including in the various courts the case has been in, the view expressed that the Ambani brothers should go in for mediation, preferably with their mother involved – tumhare paas maa hai, uske paas jaao na! Sounds pretty funny doesn’t it, after all it’s precisely because the brothers couldn’t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I met up with an old friend who is one of the myriad spokespersons the BJP has, and asked him what the party’s view was on the fight between the Ambani brothers. Why should we have a view, he said, it is a dispute over who gets the spoils, how do we come in?
Well, for [...]]]></description>

A few days after the girder fell due to the defective pillar near Lady Shri Ram College in south Delhi, DMRC’s PR department sent a mail to journalists giving pictures of a similar accident in South Korea! Complete with pictures and the urls [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That’s the question most are asking of new Human Resources Development Minister Kapil Sibal. Getting rid of the 10th class board exams has gone down very well with the kids (my 12-year old says he loves ‘Kapil-uncle’ even though he’s never seen him, even on TV!), but it’s not necessarily a good thing. The 10th [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  
A confession first: I wasn’t a great admirer of Dr Manmohan Singh, Mark 2 (in his first avatar as the country’s finance minister, he was a completely different person). He did precisely nothing for the economy in terms of reforms and if growth picked up during his tenure, it was largely driven by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that five years of the UPA are over, what has it achieved? In terms of growth, we’re now worse off, though it’s unfair to blame the government for this since both the rise and fall were very largely driven by global developments, as well as our own business cycle. In terms of deficits, of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two things have really bugged me over the week – the fact that the Mumbai airport also wants an Airport Development Fee (ADF) and that the Railways was allowed to go ahead and set up a diesel locomotive factory on its own despite getting a lower quote from a private sector firm. There’s no real link between them except that both make a mockery of the whole system of getting global bids, of transparency, and stuff like that.]]></description>
