Ashish Bose | The man who coined the term ‘Bimaru’
The classification this blunt demographer made 20 years ago, still has contemporary implications in planning

It is quite a commentary on the state of affairs in our country that an "academic" can call states of India "Bimaru" and feel pride in it. And a daily like MINT celebrates this as "blunt". Wonder what is Bimar - the poor from these states who have been discriminated against or pseudo academics like Bose who denigrate them!
