Mukul-da,

I admit I have hardly any knowledge of her - just had heard nothing ill about her so far. You seem a globe trotting do-gooder.

 To get a platform to bash 
  
   MONSANTO, 
   GENETICALLY Modified seeds,(which she would every time portray as an attempt to rob India of her food security), 
   Attempts by VESTED INTERESTS to ignore India /India's achievements
 To get herself invited as Theme speaker/Chairperson/Moderator/Judge/Jury in any forum even remotely smacking of:
  
   3rd. World independence and attempts by "Undeserving Crooks somewhere lurking..." 
   GlobalWarming/El Nino/Green Revolution(Like Swaminathan does) 
   Purity,Genes,Justice ,Peace..........
 To demand her unassailable Brand Ambassador Status  ABROAD ONLY( rarely seen/heard Inland)
  
  
 I met her in 
  JUST Convention Kuala Lumpur-11 yrs back,
 The Hague (World Millenium of Peace forum-) in May 2000.
  
  
 As somebody said of somebody else: "He said Nothing--but took a lo----ong time to say THAT"

 Alpanaji,
I think she is more practical and less histrionic.

Is she more practical and really involved with the people, unlike Arundhati 
Roy, Patkar etc.?
