A couple enjoys foreign trips

The same couple which had gone to UK and Europe last year at the cost of the Ministry, this year enjoyed the hospitality of USA, Canada and Mexico. The husband is an IAS officer. Both travelled first class through out, stayed in the best five star hotels, enjoyed the services of embasay staff at all places, took expensive gifts from the staff posted in those countries. This was a purely personal fun trip at the cost of govt expenditure. Is CVC, CBI watching ?

Aaj Ki Aawaz

SC has said that Buta should be thrown out of the Delhi house he is illegally occupying,
How about throwing him out of Raj Bhavan…. from where Governor's code he is defying!!!

The Governor of Bihar is a squatter in Delhi….. what a shame,
But then Shameless is Buta's other name!!!

He's been threatening his Boss tacitly by saying that he has taken a vow not to speak,
Means if he is pushed to a corner sabh kuch Press ko karr degaa leak!!

Congress says that RJD's Jai Prakash Yadav should be given a fair chance,
Congress Laloo ki been (flute) pe karr rahi hai dance!!

We are now Duniya's laughing stock,
Ke Ministers Indian law ko openly karr sakthe hai mock!!!

Imagine the Minister's bro and a candidate himself was caught with booze, cash and aslaa,
And the Minister went and forced the Police to free him…. very serious maslaa (issue)!!!

Anand Sharma is lying and his nose is growing (like Pinocchio) with every lie,
Very soon gravity it will defy!!

And to top it all he has such a smug look on his mug as he lies….bolthaa hai jhoot pe jhoot,
But aside he says that he is helpless as what High Command says he has to toot!!

Onions that have been imported by Sarkaar are of very bad quality…. Sarkaari pyaaj,
Mother Dairy has refused to market the rotten Pyaaj .. said that to market such onions aathi hai laaj!!

Now Onions are to be imported from China….. self pealing type,
Because for anything from China there has to be some novel hype!!

Rabdi is a harried Lady….. and is on a short fuse,
Be careful when you ask her any questions …. she could abuse!!!

Seems the reality has sunk in…… RJD will fare even worse this baar,
Biharis will slap Laloo with a decisive haar!!!

And now a complaint has been made that Laloo has been threatening Bureaucrats… do or die for him,
Wants Bureaucrats to work as per his whim!!!

In the fight between Thackrey and Rane NCP has gained,
Fight between Tiger and Hyena the Wolf has run away with a big share….. Tiger has been pained!!!

Now Tiger junior …. Udhav blames BJP for not doing well,
Says that against BJP there was a swell!!!

However BJP and SS are still the single largest combine…. but independents hold the key,
Congress NCP will be able to woo them…. reasons are easy to see!!!

Amrinder seems to be one big velaa ( Punjabi for idle)… reached Shimla before time,
Is there for a Northern CMs Conference…… and even in Shimla Badal ko karr raha tha mime!!!

Seems this man has a Badal fixation….. is on Badal badly fixated,
Even in the Terrorism Debate only on Badal he debated!!!

By the way Raja left Congress and then rejoined ….. thook ke chaata,
Because 'principally' he had said to Congress ta ta!!!

Praful Patel is an angry man…. how dare BA ask for his Passport??
Maybe he'll order an inquiry and throw in BA's face the report!!

Praful why get angry with people doing their duty,
And they asked India's Aviation Minister for his Passport is the beauty!!!

In fact Praful should take this as a lesson and order AI to do the same,
VIPs should not look at being asked to follow security procedures as being put to shame!!

This is the second time Patel and BA have not got along,
Fact is Praful wants to be treated as per his status and anything less he considers as wrong!

And Praful should remember that if Tony Blair had to travel on BA they would ask him for his passport too,
So there is no reason for Praful to make such a sour mooh!!!

J&K Congress is throwing a tantrum and want Mufti to be replaced … do not want any delay,
Demand that baton should be passed on in the CM relay!!!

Maybe will end the impasse by tossing coin …. tried and tested way,
Heads Mufti goes and tails Mufti karre ga stay!!!

Bharat Kumar

RIGHT TO INFORMATION ACT SENDS
SHIVERS IN PSUs

Right to Information Act 2005 has sent a wave of shock among the top brass of public enterprises. Even though the act is few days old, letters seeking information on various matters are flooding the public enterprises. Earlier it was difficult even to get a routine information. Now the people, NGOs, Journalists and affected citizens are asking information as a matter of right. What is worrying the top bosses of PSUs is the personal nature of information required - additional perks enjoyed by Board level bosses, award of contracts, recruitment, appointment of consultants, progress reports on infrastructure projects, etc. A senior Power Sector official speaking on the condition of anonymity said that they never thought that such information will ever see the light of the day. Now that people have a right to know, only God can save them. The work of CVC will increase manifold.
Bulk of the PSUs have yet to notify on their website the Public Information Officers. Media will be flooded with scandals and stories about the life style of PSU bosses. At last there is hope for transparency.

Dr Suresh Mehrotra has his lips sealed, if you have any whispers then send it to us
