This is an interview with Arul George Scaria, the principle investigator of a landscape survey (175 page PDF) of the current situation in India as concerns open science conducted by the Centre for Innovation, Intellectual Property and Competition (CIIPC) in New Delhi. The document itself is significant, and the interview contains a number of key points, including this: "What we are witnessing today is the capture of shared community resources by a handful of cash-rich conglomerates who want to monopolise every aspect of science communication. We as a community need to fight back against the monopolisation of our resources."
