Aaj Ki Aawaz

PM had launched Food for Work long time back… Co-ordination Committee Meeting,
In fact now Notice of such a meeting is sent in the form of a Menu and Greeting.

But now all that the Commies do is tuck in and just ignore working,
Food for Work programme is failing as Commies are shirking.

Commies are perturbed on Manmohan (Man) greeting Bush on his election,
Commies say that Bush's election is cause for dejection.

Seems Man will be soon visiting Russia …..pressure on him to do so,
All that he needs is an excuse and he will go!!!

Then Man will have to also go to China …placate both ideologies of Communism,
Rightist will say the Commies are monopolizing Man and look at this as
opportunism.

They say America is not too happy with the Commies in India holding sway,
As you know in America Communism is looked upon as treachery and so the
dismay.

Laloo is now a worried man……with the forces stacking up against him,
The political horizon has started to look dim.

Some have even advised Laloo to return to Bihar to fight the battle,
Seems the unison in anti Laloo forces has started to rattle.

But Laloo is busy cataloguing his Diwali gifts,
Seeing these his moral really lifts.

Laloo is really enamoured by the Delhi gifts…..says it is a first for
him,
In fact the gifts take care of his every whim.

Laloo accompanied Natwar to Arafat's funeral…..in fact demanded to be
included,
Left to Natwar Laloo would have been excluded.

En route they stopped over at Dubai and Laloo was mobbed…badnaam ka bhi
hothaa hai naam,
They wanted to see Joker jo kartha hai Politician ka kaam.

Man has closed his eyes when it comes to Bihar…..in Bihar there is
jungle raaj,
What else do you expect when the biggest goon wears the Bihar Taaj???

Rabdi is CM of Bihar…….Clueless Mantri,
What will happen to a place where the biggest chor is the Santri????

In Maharashtra Ajit Pawar is now moving to centrestage…..NCP's number one,
In Shiv Sena it is the son but in NCP the nephew because Pawar does not
have a son.

Freeky who was one time friend and partner of Amrinder's son wants to come out clean,
He has demanded that he be called to depose and promises his aim is not to demean.

Amrinder's 'home grown' Commission will never allow this to take place,
Because if this happens Amrinder will loose face.

Raja ke shouk….Amrinder wants Punjab to become a Horse and Dog Racing paradise,
Has asked his Chamchas to make a plan that will be indeed grandiose.

In fact after he is removed from CM's post he hopes to become a Jockey,
Only he will have to loose weight as a Jockey cannot be so stocky.

Will Bansi get Maharshtra Governorship…..not if Pawar has his way???
Bansi's new found friendship and reputation is cause for dismay.

YSR has shown his disinclination to Telengana……will TRS turn from
friend to foe???
Congress hopes and does not think so???

TRS is not in a very happy position,
Why now within its own ranks there is opposition.

This happens when you do not strike when the iron is hot,
Opportunity lost….iron cools and then you simply cannot.

Finance Ministry is mulling scrapping the present currency and going in for a change,
Hoping that black money will be converted into tax free Bonds on exchange.

FM sources say that they are mulling currency with a shelf life…to dissuade
storing,
Both measures are expensive but will pay for themselves if these can
prevent tax choring.

Conficious says….Tax chori cannot stop….this is in our genes.
He continues……Governments find innovative ways to collect taxes and
people
find innovative tax avoidance means.

Present Revenue Secretary is competent

I would like to respond to Thiru Palani T's theoretical remarks on the present Revenue Secretary's competence which can at best be considered to be ill informed and opinionated.KMC's competence and efficiency is a byword. Singlehandedly, this man built up the Trade Policy Division (TPD) at the Ministry of Commerce, when the WTO was in a very nascent stage. His notes in longhand are the genesis of each and every file in TPD. K M Chandrasekhar is very close to being a legend in the Ministry of Commerce. A very fine gentleman, a very good boss, upright and possessed of a keen mind, KMC needs no introduction to any one acquainted with Government of India. It is interesting to note that he was not the first choice to go as Ambassador to WTO, Geneva, only when the IFS staked their claim to the post, did the very best man win and KMC finally went. In intelligence, ability, grasp, efficiency and capacity, KMC outranks almost everybody (I qualify the term everybody because I do not know of everybody, and for no other reason). And, let me add, he will not take six months in learning anything, apart from being KMC, he has behind him, 34 years of experience in Government in the IAS. We may also remember that he was placed second in the IAS (pre 1979 scheme) when chaps qualified for the IAS in best of five papers, Allied Services in best of three papers and the IPS in best of only two. I may add that I do not hold a brief for either KMC or the IAS, but these are the facts, objectively considered.
