Nice article. It looks like the CIA view of India as a homogenius English speaking country is about to be smashed for good!

More stuff in the right direction!!


In an effort to ensure greater and easier availability of affordable PCs across the country, Intel India and Microsoft Corp India have inked an "Affordability Alliance," which aims at bridging the digital divide within the country.

Speaking at the occasion, Union Minister of Communications and Information Technology, Dayanidhi Maran, said, "An affordable PC in local languages is the key to ensuring IT access for a billion Indians. 'Windows XP Starter Edition for India' has been developed exclusively for India, to enable people to work on PCs in their local language. This is the first time that an English and local language product has been created for a specific country. Moreover this PC will be available at an attractive price. Microsoft's effort towards making its software affordable and available in local languages, is a great step towards increasing PC usage in India and taking IT to the common man."
