I am little suspicious of this organization "Madras Institute of Development Studies". It is chaired by one P.Radakrishna {http://www.mids.ac.in/radhakrishna.htm}. He has written this book "India, the perfidies of power: A Social Critique". {[url="http://books.google.com/books?id=DTmVbBoYb0YC&lpg=PP1&ots=IsN8DZN5sP&dq=p.%20radhakrishnan%22%20perfidies%20of%20power&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false"]link[/url]} His tone is against Hindus and BJP; he does not treat BJP in a neutral perspective. He even quotes Jesus Christ once. Then he goes on to say"
The book seems to be a collection of essays he penned in "The Hindu".
He writes (wrote) regularly in "The Hindu", talks about Dalits in the book, uses the word "caste-Hindu", "Hinduisation of Ambedkar".

P.Radhakrishnan does not appear to be a professor at MIDS right now. Look at the [url="http://www.mids.ac.in/faculty.htm"]faculty link[/url]. Your link points to R. Radhakrishna, the MIDS chair, who is clearly someone else.
Yes, this organization is predominantly biased towards anti-Indian, pro-Tamil-nationalist, pro-'subaltern' causes. It is primarily a leftist echo chamber. Members of its faculty are an important source of articles for the Hindu.
