Testing times

A group of students, probably appearing for social science exams, were having last-minute discussions on a commuter train in Mumbai. One of them looked visibly under-prepared and said, "If I don't know the answer to any question. I will simply write that the solution is to empower women, the solution is to empower the poor and the children." Pity Rahul Gandhi couldn't have heard this distinctly cynical assessment of his TV interview. Talk about empowering the youth!
