The great Indian middle class

If you have heard Vinod Mehta (editor : Outlook) during television debates, chances are that you would have thoroughly enjoyed that debate. He is a straight talker and his witty comments go nicely with that.

Read his Delhi diary from the latest issue of Outlook. He writes besides other things, the middle class's relishing about the Volcker issue, and ignoring the real issues like water, electricity, roads, healthcare etc.

I would tend to agree with that. There is a tendency of blaming the media for sensationalising the non-issues. But the truth is that the media is just pandering to their viewers' demands.

And from the same issue, read the ending paragraph of this article.

Comments:
u r right in some way,but u r forgetting one important aspect of life- life is not one way trrafic so if u r working on thing u can not work on other. same with the matters around u.if water,road, electricity are imp issues, but can not let our leaders to do, whatever they want.u have to as much focus to issues like volker as to water, road etc- if want good life ,otherwise after some days u would have to think why we have paid enough attention to issue like corrution- this is a kind of bug which slowdowning our speed of progress.
 
I agree they should not ignore real issues such as health care as it is important to many individuals.
