The New PM. Some interesting details on Sonia Ghandi, who will likely be India's new Prime Minister. There is a small Jewish community in India, by the way. I believe its divided into three communities, the two most prominent being the Cochin Jews, who have been there since time immemorial, and the Baghdadis, who were Iraqi merchants who came much later. I actually met a student here a few weeks ago from an Indian Jewish family. I think their rate of aliyah is very high.
