The Association of British Travel Agents have announced that India has overtook USA as the top long haul destination for British holiday makers this Christmas.
Following from earlier posts, this seems to reflect a growing trend of holiday makers choosing more and more exotic destinations for longer holidays.

The current government in India has enacted a new policy of providing addition quotas to the extent of 27% to people who are categorized as “Backward Castes”. This is in addition to 23% already allocated for people categorized as “Scheduled Castes and Tribes” (SC/ST). THIS IS HIGHLY DISCRIMINATORY SYSTEM. The so-called Backward Castes include land owners, bus operators amoung other wealthy people. Many of the SC/STs are truly poor and constitute what are called Dalits (who were have been treated as untouchables). While quotas for Dalits would have a fair reason so-called Backward Caste enjoying these benifits IS A FAILURE OF THE PURPOSE OF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION.
The backward in the word ‘Backward Caste’ is not by economic criteria but mere birth into a caste which is lucky to enjoy the benifits.
The people of so-called Forward Caste who are condemned out of reservation include poor temple priests amoung others. Their crime is being born as a ‘Forward Caste’.
The state of Tamil Nadu has the worst system of discrimination with 69% exclusive reserved and off limit to Forward Caste.
The untouchability and ill-treatment of dalits in southern Tamil Nadu is perperuated by non other than people who are included in Backward castes and enjoy benifits of reservation though many of them are rich. The intelligent amoung these also snatch the remaining of what is available outside of reserved quotas.
A Forward Caste today means an disowned by your own state or country. A forward caste Tamil in Tamil Nadu is disowned by Tamil Nadu as higher education is reserved for so-called backwards. Sometimes barely 1 or 2 out of 100 seats gets secured by forwards in state of Tamil Nadu due to 69% seats being reserved.

Now the disgraceful politicians are trying to enact policy that would make reservation in employment mandatory — which would affect the working of US multinationals operating in India….
PRESIDENT BUSH PLEASE BOYCOTT INDIA
MICROSOFT DONT INVITE LEADERS FROM TAMIL NADU
US SHOULD IMPOSE TRADE EMBARGO AGAINST INDIA UNLESS THE RESERVATION POLICY IS COMPLETELY ABOLISHED
USA SHOULD PRESSURE INDIA TO STOP THE RESERVATION POLICY AND OTHER DISCRIMINATORY POLICIES
