These are interesting statistics for the government to engage the online community and not abhor the nearly 58 million people. The Kapil Sibal, Lalu Prasad and P Chidambaram types should understand that this is a big constituency which the government fails to engage. The other point is that if these 58 million are cussing government, then consider it as a massive online protest, as venues are shifting in the digital age. This population forms the governments much abhorred urban middle class.
