This brings me to a huge economic presence in  India which keeps a very low
profile..the administration of funds of religious bodies, like the Wakf
Board, the  Church of South India, and so on.  The CSI owns immense amounts
of property, and I simply have no clue how the money is administered...is it
open to the members of this sect of Christianity or to anyone who wants to
access their accounts? Or is it, like the economics of the Wakf Board,
fairly opaque? Religious economics seems to me to be a field where no one is
able to give me quick information....neither do I find much written about it
in the newspapers.

Deepa.
