Its Kamal, Kamal and Kamal………… everywhere !

You go about the bureaucratic circles in New Delhi , one thing that you will find common every where these days is ----Kamal. Yes, the same Kamal Pande who is the Home Secretary in Government of India. Some say that his next assignment will be of a Cabinet secretary, though others believe that he will be the next CVC. Speculations go on and everybody has, at least, one logical reason behind his `secret news'. While the optimists feel that he would certainly get an important position because he is related to the HRD Minister, MM Joshi, the pessimists assert that he has fallen from the grace of Advaniji. Heard at a cocktail party that Brajesh mishra had got him posted as the Home Secretary , to spy for the PMO. It was also heard that NDA convenor, George fernandes has also made `kamal's next posting' his prestige point. He is unwilling to see Kamal Pande as the next Cabinet Secretary. One can only now wait and watch.
