I just spent some time clicking on each of the links of these supposed "schools." I suspect a real reporter would do the same, and would come up with questions as to why this "database" contains entries such as: -- 335 students in 21 rooms, with 3000 books, but no building -- 255 students in 61 rooms, with 157 books, again no building -- many, if not most of the schools listed being "in the process of affiliation" rather than being listed as actually accredited or affiliated I'm sorry, Lawson...I'd really like this to be true, but it really, really, really looks like a scam to me. Look at the *copyright date* on the scam -- 2003. Look at the copyright date on the "Pictorials" page -- 2001. If any of this were really true, doncha think there would have been some outside verification of it by now? Doncha think that the TMO *itself* would have been trumpeting their success to the world? Tell you what...send this web page to the Times Of India and ask them to assign a reporter to checking it out. It would be big news, after all -- a guru who "made good" in the outside world coming back to India and helping out his country. Then let's see what the reporters actually find when they go to all these locations and look for 100,000 students.
