Varma wins Bastiat
Amit Varma has just won the Bastiat Prize for his libertarian essays in Mint, beating conservative icons like Jonah Goldberg (National Review) and Clive Crook (Atlantic Monthly). In one hand he embraces a $10K check and the iconic candlestick, in the other, his smarter and more stylish wife Jasmine Shah Varma. Congratulations!

Is the dude Indian or Indian American?
Al Chut, he is Indian.
As a fan, admirer (and dare i say it, friend) of Amit’s, I’m delighted he won this. I had sent his satirical piece to atleast 100 people!
Congratulations Amit, and thanks Manish for providing this forum (since The Eminent Blogger hasn’t opened comments on his post)
;)
He’s a Mumbaikar.
Congratulations! Looking forward to more Satire.
Didn’t know Amit was married! And to imagine that he has actually maintained his excellent wit ‘despite’ being married ! Heck - he should also be given a Nobel!!!
Congratulations once again, Amit!!!
Congrats to Amit; he’s one of my favourite bloggers.
