Now we are talking. Handled correctly, the aviation manpower business can be a bigger success story than the infotech business, domestic as well as internationl, for people of Indian origin and Indians,

And as for electoral politics, which is also essential, well this sounds sweet for small town semi rural semi urban population centres too.
