Siddharth Varadarajan from The Hindu's interview with Radio Free Europe about the elections. He discusses what he thinks the issues will be that will decide the outcome of the elections. As always I really enjoy the analytical and balanced discussion rather than the flat out reporting or allegiance to civil society imaginations.
some things of note:
1. He seems to see foreign issues as larger narratives that will play out regardless of the election and lays more stress on individual canidates than on parties winning, and I will try and mine the internet for some more about the candidates.
2. He calls for new techniques that will enable citizens direct control of governance. It is left ambiguous if he means more civil society or if he means that we need to do more than just vote. I personally would like to see more on that.
