In his recommendation filed on February 21, Maas had said that Gurung should be awarded the compensation as she was a victim of "outrageous and shocking conduct."

Shanti Gurung was employed by the Malhotras when Neena was serving as a counsellor at the Consulate General of India in Manhattan.

Shanti Gurung had alleged that she was treated like a slave by the Malhotras and forced to work long hours without adequate compensation.

Marrero's ruling came just days after the Delhi High Court restrained Gurung from pursuing her lawsuit in the US.

The Delhi court had also accepted the argument that Mrs Neena is a diplomat in the services of the Government of India and was sent in official capacity to the US and thus enjoys sovereign immunity.

Any order passed by a court there would tantamount to interfering with the right of the Indian government to determine terms and conditions of employment of its diplomatic officers abroad, Justice Kailash Gambhir had ruled.

Now all the babus will take with them young nannys as concubines and sex slaves. A good perk from the GoI.

The problem is, besides the rich, even reasonably well off Indians (middle class?) are used to having a servant do the chores in the house. The Indian govt. allows their officials to continue with the practice in foreign lands as some sort of a perk. Now, I heard claims on both sides - servants being mistreated, servants using mistreatment as a ploy to stick around even when their bosses get transfered.

The best solution is - except for may be the ambassador, an Executive Director at the World Bank, or a Counsel in New York, Chicago, SF, servants should not be allowed. They should keep house on their own.
