There WERE many buildings that many people (including teh Indian press) have described
in India. SOme were raized to the ground recently. Others are still lying vacant I imagine.
Still other buildings are being built. The World Peace fund in India is a for-profit venture, I

in India, which also keeps the politicians happy.
