Sadly it would not only be India where this would happen - you would probably have even less chance of treatment in the good old USofA until they had ascertained your insurance cover.

Indian government launches 'no lavatory, no bride' campaign
22 Oct: Daily Telegraph. The Indian government has launched a 'no lavatory, no bride' campaign, telling women to reject potential suitors if they cannot provide an inside lavatory. The comments were made by India's controversial rural development minister, Jairam Ramesh, who recently angered Hindus by pointing out there were more temples than lavatories for the country's 1.2 billion people

Rickshaws to agree to meters if they get 100% increase (for 1st Km.) - from ₹15 to ₹30 - and subsequent Km. from ₹12 to ₹15.
Trouble is rickshaw (and taxi) drivers seem to forget the 'subsequent Km.' bit!
... and the latest official prices that I can find say ₹13 then ₹10 while the Goa Tourist site says a flat rate of ₹7.

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
Is anybody really surprised? Over the past few months a number of contributors have predicted that there was going to be a problem and it seems been proved right; the really surprising thing is that when so many contributors to this forum have predicted these problems how is it that the various officials haven't?

CASH-STRAPPED taxpayers are forking out £36million a year in child benefit for 40,000 youngsters who do not even live in Britain.
Angry MPs hit out as shock Whitehall statistics showed last night that 23,855 families are claiming handouts for children as a result of European Union welfare rules.
Is this fair?
