I think with pirated books we can get an idea what the author wants to say.
Anil, most of the pirated books are made by people who know what sells and they make copies of fast selling books and sell them for a cheaper rate and many people buy it since it is much cheaper than the original prints.However, they will not bother with books that are banned or books with heavy subjects attracting fewer readers , since noone knows about them and there is no demand for it...

Dear Anil. Your link is not working. Anyhow, Suresh Prabhu's gesture is exemplary. And I sincerely hope " Achhe Din "will certainly take a shape in the days to come.
But here this link is working just I checked it. If you want to read complete news than check Danik Bhaskar of 30 November. This type of help I never hope in our country.
Sure I will do it. We were used to exploitation of the public by the previous governments. So naturally such good deeds look strange and unbelievable to us.
Also tweet this like to Rahul Gandhi so he know how to serve people of country.

Let me interrupt at this point, first no librarian would want to say or purchase pirated version neither librarians are authorized to place orders for libraries. But as for these two books I bought and read I got them from a local vendor who sells all kind of banned books including... you know what I mean. The one was Lajja in Hindi and the other was Satanic Verses.

More than the Chinese it is Indian traders who buy defective goods at throw away prices and reap high profits back home. It is these practices which have given Chinese goods bad name in India.

Reason behind $3 trillion per year is not good quality of products, it is because of focus of China is on quantity. Most of we are using China's products and we know very well how is quality of these.
The quality of Chinese products imported in to India are mostly spurious. In addition to this Indian traders are making the goods in India itself and printing on the the labels as Made in China.
I think Made in China level is not have good image in India so buyer purchase goods after reading made in China. Manufacturing of products of low cost like China is not possible in India.

Absolutely so ! China makes plastic rice, plastic lettuce and lead in baby food ...Imagine a population that has to live through that ! Technological development is not enough to call a nation developed. Today we see in the news how Beijing and another city in China is covered in thick smog because of the pollution levels. so is Delhi ! And this is something that happens frequently there..

They may not taste 100 wines a day because I doubt as many new wines are produced in a single day in a place...But I am sure they do taste a few at least and they know their job so no worries ..

China is well developed Country. China is obsessed with doing things in an astronomical scale. Even a child who knows about a country like China can say this and one need not be a part of the Chinese Government. For no reason China has become a developed country.
Everybody knows how a developed Country like China deals with those who are lax and fail to perform duties.
Chinese are very similar to Indians in many ways and there is a lot of things that are not right there . Shanghai has one of the highest pollution rates and at times gets completely covered in smog and it happens often, more so in the recent past ! They still have a dictatorship which is not the same as being well developed and efficient in dealing with people who are lax ..
