No more computerisation, stresses Mulayam

Reiterating his party's election promise to curb the use of computers, Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav yesterday said, "Let us put an end to any further computerisation in this country."

"India is a country with millions of unemployed hands and if we go on computerising everything, we will soon have a bigger army of unemployed youth," he added.

Unmindful of the flak his election manifesto had drawn on account of the anti-computer and anti-English stance, he said, "Nothing should be allowed to go beyond certain limits. We have seen enough of computerisation and any further move in that direction would be detrimental to the overall growth of the nation."

"Even proliferation of management courses seemed to have only resulted in producing more and more unemployed MBAs.

"I have always been in favour of discouraging the use of machine in jobs that could be carried out easily by the human hand and mind."
