Message for Indian team

Apropos the whisper' "Indian team enamoured of American Hospitality", I am reminded of Chhatrapati Shivaji's counselling to Shambhaji who was once upon a time enamoured of the charms of Aurangzeb. "Aurangzeb is dangerous", said Shivaji adding, "more dangerous when he smiles". One hopes the lesson is not forgotten by the Indian team.

N N Ojha

Government should create Economic Division

IES are specialist and the qualification for this service is specified as holding Master Deggree in Economics. This is totally different from other general recruitment for Civil Services. The government should create Economic Division in all the Ministries manned by IES Officer headed by Special Secretary Level officer of an IES. Fifth pay commission also recommended that all the FA should be from IES. This should also be implemented. Economic Management has been very poor in the Government mostly due to non availability of Economist. Government should strengthen IES Cadre and top post in all the Ministry of Finance / Commerce / Agriculture etc having economic content should be handled by Economist.

Sri Raman

It should apply to IAS also

The policy of transfers and postings prevalent in the IRS should be emulated in the IAS as well.

Aaj Ki Aawaz

After voting Manmohan came out and flashed the V sign with a broad grin!!!
Most Indians take this V to be meaning Vile as probity has been put in the bin!!!

Seems Shekhawat is going to do better than expected!!!
Though now its a foregone conclusion that Pratibha will be elected!!

Though Raje still says that Shekhawat could spring a surprise and shock UPA!!!
She's banking on cross voting and the turnaround by a faction of UNPA!!!

Pratibha would loose hands down if Indians were to Vote!!
But sadly this time Pratibha's winning because Sonia karti hai uss pe dote!!!

So lump it...... Sonia's choice is what matters!!!
Democracy and the real spirit behind representative voting is in tatters!!!

Sonia's got her puppets both in 7 Race Course and Raisina Hill!!!
Now only Chief Justice's post with her choice she has to fill!!!

Kalam Sahib will leave Rashtrapahi Bhavan with two bags... his assets are in his head!!!
If you recall in his Imaginary Interview with me this is what he had said!!!

For VP's post DMK wants Barnala and Commies want Ansari!!!
And Commies say that as per agreement its their baari ( turn)!!!

Will Haryana's voting in Presidential election show Bhajan's clout????
Quite a few cross votes Bhajan's son Kuldeep karr raha hai tout!!

Hooda's very nervous....... during the voting he was seen ticking name after name!!
Because if there's cross voting his detractors are going to say ' Hooda shame shame'!!!

What message was Hooda trying to give by driving his own car to vote???
What Hooda wanted his Party men to take note????

Was he trying to say he was ready to drive his own car after getting the sack????
Because if there is considerable cross voting then apna boriya bisstar he may have to pack!!

Amrinder says, " Arusa ki kassam I'll fight Badal's in mohallas and gallis",
But surprising nowadays like in the past he does not mouth gaalis (foul langauge)!!

Amrinder bann gaya gentleman....... or now he simply cannot afford to abuse!!!
In the past when he was in power most insulting language for Badal he used to use!!

Fact is Amrinder is now scared..... all this talk is false bravado!!!
You'll see his true haalath when the Court to his Bail plea says 'no'!!!

Salem's moll is still in jail!!!
Despite the fact that she's got bail!!

If she wants to get out fast she should change her name to Meher Salem!!!
And apply to Manmohan who'll then put on the Authorities the blame!!!

As you know if you are a Muslim in Manmohan's book you cannot do anything wrong!!
Seems he needs to reminded about Renuka's ' sajjan re jhoot matt bolon' song!!!

Speaking of Renuka..... does she consider her own hubby also to be irresponsible???
If she does then many say for Renuka's anti hubby statement maybe he's responsible!!

Renuka aka The Wall followed Sonia when she went in to vote for President's election!!!
SPG could not go in so Renuka was the next best selection!!!

Kalamadi in a Kurta that looked more like a Arab gown was at Sonia's side!!!
He seemed to be the parade master and by his marching orders Sonia's cutlery karr rahi thi abide!

Big B says he surrendered his Pune land but Maharashtra CS denies any such letter!!!
Maybe he's sounded the boards and now karr raha hai tetter!!!

If he was serious he'd have called the Press and released the surrender letter!!
After all to get publicity he's one go-getter!!!

But this is for sure the surrender of land does not mitigate the crime he's committed!!!
The matter cannot by his surrendering land be omitted!!!

He may be doing it now because the damage in Court could be more!!!
After all his Legal Team must have told him what's in store!!!

Court while disposing PIL against Big B has ordered ED to investigate any FEMA violations!!!
For starters ED should look into Big B and pariwaar's foreign vacations!!!

Chandigarh's a 'smokeless City'!!!
But Hookah Bars still flourish and that's a pity!!!

Youth are being made into smokers..... the surrogate way!!!
But seems with Chandigarh Administration the Hookah Bar owners have a say!!!

Or is this 'smokeless Chandigarh' just hoopla or a sham,
Because for the youth smoking themsleves to the grave with Hookas the Administration cares a damn!!
