While leading journalism schools worldwide teach journalists the sacred value of reporting a story with an immaculately neutral point of view, many 'investigative' journalists, given frequently to sensationalist reporting, unfortunately have ended up being bards to the slant that everything positive about the protagonist must have been bought and everything negative must be true! One such entity to clearly have had its unfair share of such roughneck reportage from an unseemly cote

The election results are out! We were not into any prediction games, but tried to base our prediction in the last issue on what others tried to predict! And it seems apart from Total TV and Live India, there was no one else who could make the right prediction about the election results! But I’m excited. Excited, because though no massive change in governance or the corruption index is likely with our current breed of rulers, the voters are

Midway through this election, I would not be surprised if some insider reports state that at least some of the national parties, if not all, have already started working for the next election. And by this I mean the next Union election, which in any case would be much sooner than expected. For if one were to believe the exit polls results by most media houses, then I have no doubt in saying that we are heading for a terribly

There is something indefinable about Arindam Chaudhuri that helps him stand out in a crowd. Is it his gradually thinning ponytail? Is it his fascination with blue? Or is it his ability to give a smile even as he talks? More likely, these are just add-ons for a guy who started off as just another management guru a few years back but managed to find his own spot under the sun. And during recession times too he is shining. First c

In the current Union Budget, while the UPA government was increasing the allocation for its flagship NREGA program – from Rs 16,000 crore to Rs 30,000 crore, resulting in a hike of an incredible 87% – it was again surreptitiously trying to ignore the CAG report. The CAG, or the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, has been consistently criticizing the government for alleged misappropriation of funds, faulty record maintenance systems and rampant c
