Activists of Communist Party of India (CPI), a political party, burn an effigy of the U.S. President George W. Bush during a protest in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad May 9, 2008. A remark by Bush saying India was partly responsible for rising global food prices has sparked a nationalistic storm across the political spectrum, with the defence minister calling it a "cruel joke".
