'Rahul says Kashmir is not a problem that's 'part-time'!!!!
But how come during Omar’s stint the warning bells have a shriller chime???
 
It is not a part time problem and so Omar the part time CM needs to be removed!
He spends more time in Delhi and his ‘ineptness’ has been amply proved!!
 
Omar has his Papa’s genes and loves to party and living it up!!!
And even if Rahul sides with him those shouting for his removal will not ‘shut up’!
 
And even if by a miracle Omar was on the verge of a break through!!
Congress would never allow Omar’s proposal to go through!!
 
Like I said its politics that is also adding oil to the J&K fire!!!
Netas will even politick over the dead body of their Dads as from politicking they never tire!
 
Army presence should not be reduced and neither Army’s powers be reduced!!
If either is done ‘India’s gone week’ is what by the Pakis will be deduced!!
 
Now its talks with one hand extended for a handshake and in the other hand a gun!!
This is what needs to be done!!
 
And make the Army accountable for its ‘greed and lust’!!!
This is a must!!
 
As you will note from Media reports with cricket Pawar is very busy!!!
Not bothered about Food inflation that’s sending us into a tizzy!!
 
He too needs to be sacked and allowed to administer cricket to his heart’s content!!!
It’s because of his ‘hay making’ that sky-high inflation went!!
 
Sugar was exported and then imported later at a higher price!!
For Congress’s numerical compulsions we Indians are paying the price!!!
 
Maybe now Rahul will say ‘inflation too is not a problem that is part-time’!!!
Maybe now issuing ‘part-time’ and ‘full-time’ certificates is Rahul’s new pastime!
 
Inflation is now a long time pain!!!
As long as Pawar is Agriculture and Food Minister its not going to wane!!
 
Shanti Bhushan says ‘8 out of 16 CJI’s were corrupt’….what a shame!!!
Of course the Judges Bhushan ne nahi kiye name!!
 
Why do you think Laloo and likes of him have so much faith in SC???
In SC they have Supreme Confidence or SC!!
 
Ahmedi and Sabbarwal are two glaring examples based on what’s come out!!
Justice ka rout!!!
 
Confucius says…. the Highest Court should be like a Temple of Justice!!
But seems some CJIs made SC as the epitome of injustice!!

PM credits P.V. Narasimha Rao for Economic growth in India
Look at the modesty of Indian Prime Minister Dr. Man Mohan Singh that he did not take credit for whatever growth the country registered in post Economic liberalization period. Instead he gave credit to the then Indian Prime Minister late P.V. Narasimha Rao for giving him (Dr. Man Mohan Singh) an opportunity to act freely. This observation was made during one of the meetings that was chaired by Dr. Man Mohan Singh.

"Is it the failure of the Government?"

It is a real pathetic situation that the future of a good hardworking IPS officer lies in the hands of biased Government. Ironically, our Force had not seen any such Officer till date who would devote maximum possible time of a day, even on GH, without caring for personal and family life. His principle is that everyone should contribute something new to the Force. Force might have got additional Battalions during some of the Director Generals. But can any one single DG able to claim that he had done justice by raising the standards of the rank and file? No. But he is. He took great care for insulating the Jawans from hardships. He established Transit Camp at New Delhi Railway Station for the countless Jawans travelling from the troublesome northern State including J&K to various parts of India. Otherwise they would have languished at the Platforms with their precious articles including Government Stores. He established MT part opposite CGO Complex for the government vehicles which would otherwise lie unattended in and around JLN Stadium increasing the threat to the lives of Jawans due to the threat of planting of bombs inside these vehicles. He is the only DG who travelled on a 5 tonner vehicle to understand the plight of Jawans in Leh and Ladakh area to inspect a border post. His endeavour to modernize the Force with state of the art of weapons and accessories is commendable which in normal case no DG has ever done. Whatever bad has happened was only because of the misadventure on the part of the personnel inspite of clear cut Standard Operating procedures. The only bad thing he might have been doing is that he is not dancing to the tune of (influential) powers of the corridors and their political bosses to achieve their whimsical goals. It is the sheer bad luck of the Force that such news are emanating and I strongly believe that the Force would see new heights if he is allowed to serve this Force for the remaining period of his great service to the Nation.

10 Things that distinguish PM of UPA-1 from UPA-2

1. Opposition no longer accuses him of lame duck PM.
2.He defends his own government- no longer Congress Spokesperson.
3.Journalists and Authors write about PM's achievements, not Congress Party.
4.Acclaimed authors and journalists write books about PM praising his tenure while past PM's of congress parties are criticised for the actions or inactions.
5.He asserts himself: Supreme Court of India Order giving free food to poor. Compares his government to NEHRU not to NDA
6.It is PM who is now regarded as the most respected and powerful leader of the world Not the UPA chairperson.(SOURCE TIME MAGAZINE)
7.Gone are the days when NSA MKN, Pol Sec AP or PMO Sec PC (Pulak) could pass on verbal instructions. PM gets everything in writing now from 10 Janpath.
8.Congress Core committee is debunk for Governance. Its Hon Prime Minister who calls the shots within the Government.
9.Bureaucrats No longer seek favors Only from number 10 but Number 7 is more important to them.
10. Finally AP is out, PSN is in, Bengali Babu (PM) is out PC (HM) is in, EX-NSA is out IB chief is in, Ambanis are out RNT is in, SRK is out AB is in and SPG is out CBI is in.

Narayan Murthy Retd IAS

On what basis ?

In theory, there is no question of chances for the CS post as either it should go by seniority or by the preferences of the chief minister who can overlook as many as 8 to 10 persons without any infringement of any rules. So, where is the question of scuttling of chances and on what basis the petition will be heard?

Lest these institutions will remain on paper

Let some officers from the IAS, who have worked as Addl Secy/Secretary (Health & Family Welfare) in the state concerned be posted with clear cut time frame, funds and other essential support. Lest these institutions will remain on paper.

Mismanagement at NASA is a symptom of larger mismanagement

The Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, Mussoorie, is the apex training institution in the country for senior members of the Civil Services in India. The vision of the Academy is to promote good governance, by providing quality training for building a professional and responsive civil service in a caring, ethical and transparent framework. If the National Academy of Statistical Administration (NASA, Greater Noida, MOSPI), has been built on the model of LBSNAA, Mussoorie, it should be apex training institution for Statistical Knowledge and Statistical Skills in the country for senior members of all Group A services. The vision of the Academy should be to promote good governance, by providing quality training for building a professional base for informed decision making in a caring, ethical and transparent framework. Unfortunately, this is beyond the comprehension of the present management.
It is unfortunate to see that the statistical system under the guidance of the National Statistical Commission (NSC) has been reduced to a directionless free for all system. Even the GDP fiasco has failed to shake it.

Bureaucrats should accept reality

Yesterday there was an all party meeting held on Kashmir situation. Is this a political problem or a military problem? For political one, I do not have much to say but if we see it from security force angle than BSF should have been continued there instead of withdrawing them in 2006 onwards. That was a very serious mistake in government decision. BSF is the only factor missing from Kashmir issue as of now, rest others are continuing since beginning. Political and bureaucratic authorities have to accept this reality and do the needful overall review.
