The main problem is the PDS [1] in certain Indian states. In other states, where the PDS works (e.g. Tamil Nadu), things are better.
The article is very simplistic and alarmist. Things are much more complex, and it's high time Western readers stopped using the "developing" (read: industrial) world to boost their perceived moral superiority.
Why are political articles about the US not allowed on HN, but Indian are?
