In the spirit of democracy...

Let's respect everyone's right to express an opinion. But surely this - from Amit Varma's blog at India Uncut - is utterly ridiculous. The sad thing is many in India would probably agree - the rural poor who rightfully felt insulted by the BJP's "India is Shining" campaign at the last general election, come to mind.
Of all the places in the world, I can't think of any place where sex education and family planning would be more necessary than in India. This is a country that, despite its well-documented problems, has managed to be somewhat of a leader in the provision of cheap AIDS (among others) drugs. Let's hope people like Murli Manohar Joshi are dismissed for the quacks they really are.
