IT industry and politicians

Deve Gouda is talking rubbish about narayana murthy of infosys. the communists in kolkatta want to have a say about workers rights in the IT industry.

they may seem like isolated incidents but i firmly believe that are not.

The IT industry has become big enough to attract the attention of politicians. the want to have a stake in it in some form of the other. i believe that the coming months are going to see more action on this front.

ps: the amount of publicity given to deve gowdas remarks was stupid, to say the least.
i was pretty suprised by how low the editorial levels at new indian express could stoop when all they had was a story on what deve gowda had said in the sunday edition's front page. this makes the editorial standards of papers which put off pictures of scantily clad women on the cover much higher.
