Aaj Ki Aawaz

Congressis demand Governors Rule in Haryana…say State is in disorder,
What about Bihar where there is no Law and Order???

Patients languish in Hospitals crying for treatment and care,
Doctors have gone on strike as they say kidnappings and killings of
Doctors
has become an everyday fare.

Doctors say that the goons have got the protection of the Sarkaar,
Situation is abs bekaar as there is nobody to listen to their duhaar.

More than 50 have died during this Doctor's strike…..Laloo is
unperturbed,
He seems oblivious of the misery in Bihar …totally undisturbed.

Laloo runs Bihar via remote and he is said to be the King of the Mob,
The Mob is responsible for all the nefarious activities ….kidnap,
rangdaari,
murder and rob.

Hope that the anti Laloo forces bond and show Laloo the door,
Get Bihar rid of this curse and chor.

Sonia prides herself on her humaneness …….association with Laloo says
otherwise,
In due course she too will learn that she has been very unwise.

NDA put up a united front…..Congress expected them to split,
Hoped on the Hinduvta the NDA will take a hit.

NDA has demanded a negotiated settlement of the Mandir issue...and
sooner
the better,
Relationship with Allies is improving and deterioration they have been
able
to deter.

Crossing Jaya's path could be injurious to health ……she is unforgiving,
Will make you feel that life is not worth living.

But sooner or later everyone meets his or her match….jaise ko taisaa,
Kudrat aur duniya ka asool hai aisaa.

They say Badal is trying to make BJP and Chautala come close,
With Haryana elections coming closer all are on their toes.

Hulka Fulka

'Softy' Powell has been shown the door......was expected,
On his going Pakis will sure be dejected.

Rice is tipped to take his place,
No one else is in the race.

I have to say about K M Chandrasekhar

I would like to reply to Mr. A.K. who defended the current Revenue Secretary. I have raised the current appointment of the Revenue Secretary as only one example of what is wrong with the way the government is run. I am willing to concede that Mr. KMC is eminently suitable for the post of Commerce Secretary considering the number of years he has spent there and hence acquired considerable expertise in that area. But, does that expertise translate to Mr. KMC being a good Revenue Secretary (or any other Secretary for that matter)?. Mr. A.K. mentions Mr. KMC's brilliance and surely based on that one could conclude that he is an extremely intelligent person. But, I am not convinced that intelligence is enough to design and frame Fiscal policy, though I would agree that it is indeed an asset. Sadly, despite the enormous praise that Mr. A.K. has for the current Revenue Secretary he has not mentioned even once his suitability for advising the government on Fiscal Policy. As a taxpayer who wants the best system to govern my country, I am not convinced of Mr. A.K.'s arguement. Rather it would benefit the country greatly to post Mr. KMC as the Commerce Secretary for which it appears that he is best suited. I am also not convinced about the arguement that by writing an extra paper in 1979, Mr. KMC has risen above the lesser mortals who are automatically relegated to the back seat on all matters of governance. Alas, if running the government implies only being a good administrator (for which it appears the IAS believe that only they can do), then the country will continue to run based on administrative convenience while being weak on policy.
