Here's the man credited to have started the polio eradication program in 1994. the use of word "started" and the structure "the man" seems invisible to you? This is a prime example of Pushy Politics, which has been not just used, but over abused by fanatics. Distorting History, and if so much as someone (like me here) points it out... "a man can't make a mistake?" attitude then, makes these people feel invincible. Thus...I must quote Plato here: You can forgive a child for staying in darkness, but the real tragedy of life is when men choose to stay away from light.

Calm down. Read about Dr. Harsh Vardhan on Wikipedia [1] before shedding all your fur here. QUOTE During his time in the State's Health Ministry, he launched Polio Eradication Plan in October 1994.[6] The programme was successful and was adopted throughout the whole nation by the Government of India.[7] UNQUOTE Please do your homework before calling others on the task. And look beyond your own version of reality, it is important. I wouldn't have even replied to you had it not been on HN.

  The wiki page about him is not even 6 months old. People involved in the malicious campaign, as grand as this, don't leave any stone unturned to make what is false into truth. I cannot bring myself to believe that. Sorry, not possible. You should have checked what your reference is. And now this is not a debate, what I said was not that he was not part of the movement. But Polio campaign was not started by him, is a fact. Started, is someone who actually launched it on the national scale which would be the then prime minister, but should I also commit the same mistake of naming a politician and giving him all the credit? No I won't, I already said what is the known truth. Also, if you read my reference (from US National Library Records) you would know, that the first project was launched in Tamil Nadu, then expanded to 3 states.
