[The Hindu carried a report about the number of Muslim and Christian judges in the Supreme Court. If The Hindu can promote the pernicious idea of religious head counting in the SC why thump the pulpit if Mayawati wants the same for SC and ST and Mulayam wants it for OBCs? Only Mayawati doesnt know that if there is reservation quota in promotions in the ST category then it will be the Christian converts from among the Scheduled Tribes who will rise to the surface because it is the Christian STs who corner the bulk of reservation quota for ST. This was the thrust of my article on how it is religion not caste which hides behind reservation quotas. And who would have thought Vikramjit Sen is a Christian!!!!! - Editor Vigilonline]

This majestic cow is from Brazil. Belonging to the Gir breed of Gujarat, this cow -- named She-ra -- clocked 62.033 litres of milk in a 3-day milk competition at the 40th Expaja in Brazil, beating her own record of 59.947 litres. While Indian cattle breeds are doing exceptionally fine abroad, the fascination of our own policy makers for exotic breeds seems to be never ending. Meanwhile, Brazil has emerged as the biggest exporter of Indian breeds of cows. Recently I wrote: "newspapers in Punjab reported that an American company -- World Wide Sires Ltd -- is planning to provide high quality semen to dairy farmers. Some days back, I had heard that the Kerala minister for Animal Husbandry was thinking of importing some improved cattle breeds from Denmark for cross breeding with local cows." [See my blog post: Holy Cows -- acclaimed abroad, despised at home. http://devinder-sharma.blogspot.in/2010/09/holy-cows-acclaimed-abroad-despised-at.html].
