p chidambaram is one of the worst villains in the kkkangress rogues' gallery.
figures. he's a product of the harvard business school, which produced many other charlatans, like rebecca marks of enron.
india *was* the richest country in the world until the limeys came and stole $10 trillion.
the kkkangress has followed in their footsteps. there was a mail doing the rounds that said $1.5 trillion in assets were held in swiss banks by indians. this dwarfs the $400 billion held by chinese. wanna bet 99% of the $1.5 trillion is in numbered accounts held by the kkkangress, the dmk, and the samajwadi party?

The Legendary wealth of India
Arnold Hermann Ludwig Heeran (1760-1842) German historian and Egyptologist has observed:
"India has been celebrated even in the earliest times for her riches."
The wealth, splendor and prosperity of India had made a strong impression on the mind of Alexander the Great, and that when he left Persia for India, he told his army that they were starting for that "Golden India" where there was endless wealth, and that what they had seen in Persia was as nothing compared to the riches of India. Chamber's Encyclopedia says" "India has been celebrated during many ages for its wealth." The writer of the article "Hindustan" in the Encyclopedia Britannica remarks that India "was naturally reputed to be the seat of immense riches."
Milton voiced the popular belief when he sang of the wealth of India:
"High on a throne of royal state which far
Outshone the wealth of Ormuz and of Ind (India)
Or where the gorgeous East with richest hand
Showers on her kings barbaric, pearl and gold."
According to Economist Angus Maddison (1926 - ) in The World Economy: A Millennial Perspective, the region that today comprises the Indian subcontinent held the largest share of the world's gross domestic product until the beginning of the 16th century, when it was rivaled by China, and then again throughout most of the 18th century. At the end of the 16th century, India's great wealth sustained a population of more than one hundred million people.
In "India, the Silicon Jewel of the East" (Digital Journal, May 13, 2004), Paul William Roberts states, "There was an abundance of arable land, and the state of Indian agriculture compared favorably with any of the Western European countries. Right down to the subsistence-oriented peasant, everyone saw a good return on land and labor. There was a large and vigorous skilled workforce turning out not just cotton but luxury items for the barons, courts and ruling classes. Consequently, the economy produced a fabulous financial surplus."

"Great Insights" of P. Chidambaram
P. Chidambaram (1945 - ) has liked "Slumdog Millionaire" and now is asking all Indians to feel "inspired" by it. He has seen nothing wrong with the movie, its racial prejudice and its stereotyping of India as a land of unspeakable poverty, horrors, oppression, squalor and crime. The movie shows this as the "reality" of India . And to rub salt into our wounds, Chidambaram is asking us to feel "inspired" with this image of our country that has been projected to the whole world!
But then, Chidambaram is the same "leader" who had said that India was never a rich country ! "India was a country where rivers of milk and honey used to flow, is a great historical myth, believes Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram. "The poverty has always been there in India and whoever propounded the myth about India being a rich country is wrong," he said. The old teaching that India was a country of milk and honey about five centuries ago was factually incorrect, Chidamabaram said. "Poverty was there and is still there in India , though prosperous pockets existed here and there," he said.
The finance minister said the books that propounded the glorious past of India were liable to be burnt.
Perhaps he needs to be reminded that Babar, who called India Sone ki Chidiya.

Hey Rajeev,
In your Blind hatred of harvard business school, you seem to have become kanjoos with truth. Chidambaram is not a harvard business school product. In fact he s no MBA. He is a lawyer by prfoession and passed out of Harvard School of Law. I am sure even your blind hatred of HBS would not cloud your judgment on the hallow that surrounds Harvard Law school. I agree with all else you have to say about the cunning fox from sivagangai.

While giving Pee Chidu the swift kick to the nether regions that he deserves, you may want to leave the stanford-harvard rivalry out :))!
Harvard has its share of excerable entities (witzel, amartya etc) but it also has its share of titans, especially in the medical field.
Tarring them with the same brush as pee is not on.
PS. I'm a harvard alum too :)
though not of the business school, which, i guess, is a plus these days.
agworld, i didn't know you are a harvard man. what's life without a little stanford-harvard rivalry? :-)
just like the cal-stanford fight?
rangesh, he is a harvard business school alumnus, look at his wikipedia page. don't blow smoke without checking out the facts.
no, i don't have any blind hatred of hbs. i just think people have this blind adulation of harvard, esp. of hbs, which has produced its share of villains.
Guys...I am from neither, so guess I am not in league to fight.
However, I am a desi living in India and so I do have full right to kick and hurl abuse at PEE CHIDU...I am hopping mad at him, ever since he fucked our economy. This arrogant S.O.B must be skinned alive and his links with Fairgrowth and the money making spree of Anand Chidambaram must be exposed.
I did like kick his balls once in my life time.
Rajeev,
You are right. I did'nt check up the facts. I stand corrected.
