Learn something from developed countries

Why should we bother about the Civil Servants so much who are retired now. Or alternatively shouldn't the serving officers think of all citizens of the country equally, when sitting on a chair, for they are being paid from the public money. Why don't we learn this from the developed countries, where every one is treated equally in Hospitals, schools, offices and other public places, irrespective of his or her official position. Only then we could think of india being one of those developed countries.

Drastic steps are necessary

The problem with us is that we are all ostrich like in our mentality, one minute we stare corruption in the face and the very next we start picking up one excuse or the other. The only way out of this morass is to select honest officers and to place only honest officers in key positions, regardless of any thing else. And unless the drastic broom is taken to clean up the Augean stables of the IPS, IRS(Customs) and IRS(Income Tax), there can be no moving forward.

Aaj Ki Aawaz

Congress has rekindled its old naara…. Garibi Hatao,
Aur kuch nahi toh iss naare se Garib ko patao!!!

After making the Garib's staple Dal Roti go out of his reach seems Garib Hatao would be the more apt naara!!! There is no doubt that incomes have not kept abreast with the increase in basic commodities!!! Fact is sachai chupp nahi sakthi by such a naara, Congress has to do something if it wants to come back to power dobaara!!!  Congress's new mascot must be seeing  the haalath of  Aam Aadmi the ex Mascot!!!! To be fair the blame for the Dal Roti crisis lies with Pawar…….Congress is just aiding and abetting …… and imagine Pawar dreamt of becoming India's PM and as per reports still does ……. God Save India if he does!!!!

Should SEZs come up on agricultural land….. no!!
To non agricultural land  SEZs should go!!!

By the looks of it India is playing in the hands of Developed Nations!!! Logic is that if you can buy milk in the market then why keep a cow???? So very soon India will be sourcing its food requirements from overseas!!! India 's Agriculture Minister seems to be inclined to this line of thinking and that is why he's not objected to SEZs coming up on agricultural land….. he just says that Farmers should get the right price for their land!!! Just because a Freight Corridor is coming up does not mean that such projects go hinterland and encroach on agricultural land!!!! The way our population is exploding and the way our agricultural land is depleting our food security is in jeopardy!!! Seems not much thinking has gone into SEZs!!!!  SEZ……. Seized and Erroneously used Zameen!!!!

If elections are held today in Harayana Hooda would be booted out!!!
Today he's looked upon as a Land Lout!!!

Hooda's stock in Haryana is running very low!! He's unpopular with Haryanvis……. the Haryana Bureaucracy , apart from a minority, have little respect for him….. in fact he's been demanding they respect him!!!! Of course when people ask him ‘ aap ke saath koun hai' his standard reply is ‘ mere paas REL hai'!!!! If the crop norm for land identification is followed strictly in letter and spirit then REL will very soon pack its bags and move out of Haryana….. phir aapka  kya hogaa Hooda????

Venod Sharma ki ho gayi chutti……. was instructed to resign,
After a lot of cajoling on the resignation letter kiya usne sign!!!

Hooda of course did not want Sharma to resign but ultimately had to agree!!! Of course Hooda will do his best to help Manu….this goes without saying!!! All said and done the Jessica case has a lot riding on it…… this case will be a cornerstone in many ways!!! And Hooda can do what he wants….. Venod can spend as much as he wants but this time its not going to be that easy to pull wool over Justice's eyes!!!!

Amrinder Singh hai kuch dinn ka mehmaan,
Has already started packing his saamaan!!!

Despite the sops in the pipeline Amrinder is going to go out one way or the other!!! As of today Akalis are winning hands down…..and if by some miracle Congress wins Amrinder is not going to be the CM…… high Command considers him to be a Royal Pain……. his boistressness, blatant corruption, thumbing his nose penchant and couldn't care less attitude are the reasons for his being a Royal Pain!!! And the apt way of addressing him would be His Bullyness….. bullying comes naturally to him!!! 

Cabinet Reshuffle, Party appointments and Governors appointments….. what's the hold up???
Hear that a few of the probables nowadays give support to each other when together they sup!!!!

There's a lot of uncertainty in Delhi !!!! The carrot has been hanging for a bit too long and now signs of rot have started to show on the carrot!!! Now the new rumour is that in the next two days a new MEA will be appointed!!! In fact now the betting market has taken cognisance of the uncertainty and started accepting bets on the reshuffles…… and even on the derivatives of the reshuffles!!!
