Can not agree more on sugar consumption in Indian population. In my own family the incidence of type II DM has sky rocketed (last count 13 close family members and I am afraid I will be next knowing that both my parents have it).

Bala, please read the article posted (imho it does have some important cost benefit analysis). Jatropha cultivation might not solve the problem as its oil yield (bio diesel) is not as economically feasible to that of ethanol from sugarcane. I fear that bio-fuel policy in India is drifting towards et...

Bala, even if we (India and China) cause consumption crisis, why we should be apologetic about it? Isn’t free trade economics is based on demand and supply? I completely agree that this boogie is raised to maintain western hold on geoecopolytics. I posted the article because in my humble opinion f...

This topic is close to my heart. Water management should be taken on war front for better future of India. Found this interesting take on policy of bio-fuel and its impact on water availability.

Sanjay I dont think situation is hopeless. There is some spine left (I hope) in form of DAE scientists and AK. From Prithviraj Chavan time we have lost diplomatically.
