"Primarily India" and "Uniquely Indian" Could this be worded a little better? If the practice is unique to India then lets says so, if it is practiced elsewhere, where else? I have no knowledge of the subject, so can't make that choice. Thanks Jimaginator 16:59, 30 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Nepal has reports of booth capturing happening and if my memory serves me right, bangladesh too has in recent times witnessed a couple. Idleguy 11:36, 1 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
