FORUM

It's pity ---LBSNAA

It is pity the way LBSNAA is being run. There are no replacements for Krishnan, Sanjeev Chopra, Subrahmanyam. It is unfortunate that number of allied service is increasing in LBSNAA. There should be serious intervention from Department of Personnel to improve the quality of trainers.

CBDT -mutinous situation

There seems to be a mutinous situation in CBDT. Already 4 Commissioner's of Income Tax have approached CAT against the transfer order dated 25.6.07. The 4 officers are Anil Kumar ( 1986 batch), RS Meena( 1985 batch), Ruby Shrivastava ( 1986 batch) and LM Pandey (1987 batch). The first three have already got a stay on their transfer . The four officers have been peeved with the fact that even though they had working government spouses they were not retained in the place of posting where they got promoted to the rank of Commissioner of Income Tax.
Actually the seed of the problem is that CBDT has not been transferring out officers on promotion which goes against the very spirit of the Transfer Policy .

Why do you want to undermine ISS ?

The development of entire country depends on accurate statistics. Have you seen any secretary, Minister or anybody occupying a very senior position does not quote figure in their speeches relation to development. How these figures come? If an officers passing out a PG with Statistics enters into ISS in an all India Competitive Exam should be given the same benefit as specialised serves. If an officers stagnates at a particular level will he be motivates? When the statistics has become so important for developmental process then why you want to undermine the ISS officers. I have respect for all services. Let us do our job to the best of our ability in whatever services we are to make the life of millions of people comfortable instead of throwing mud on each other.

I support of creating of Economic Division

I totally disagree with Surendra Mohan who had commented an insulting note as regard role of IES officers. My stint as PS to Union Minister makes me believe that almost all the policy analytic and parliament question has been done by IES Officers.. and I strongly support creating of Economic Division in each of the Ministries as Economic Rationale/ Decision should be guided by proper economic research.. Yes, India need better economic management and each of the Ministries should have Economic Division. We should remember that the role of Ministries are policy advice (not implementation alone as some of the comments might suggest). Rather skill sets of IES officer should be strengthened, proper training at best Universities should be arranged.. we need more and more economic inputs as our economy / government mature.. no one can deny this fact..

Sam Padora

What is the defined role of Minister and Secretary

I strongly believe that Sarvesh Moorthy has no understanding of Government functioning such as Ministries. Where has it been mentioned that Ministries are meant for implementation of Government's programmes and not for economic research. What is the defined role of the Secretary who head the Department / Ministry - they are principal advisor who would advice the government on policy matters. The main role of Ministries / Department is policy advice where economic reasearch and inputs are necessary and crucial. All the works in Ministries / Department should relate to policy research. Ministries are not just another post office as Moorty might have thought it to be...
A K Murthy

Certain IES posts should be abolished

I completely agree with Surendra Mohan and would like to add that Indian Statistical Service is still performing some role envisaged for it, i.e. collection and analysis of statistical data. On the other hand, Indian Economic Service(IES) is surviving by doing secretarial work, which should be done by officers selected under Central Staffing Scheme or Central Secretariat Service. To compound this anomaly further, IES has started asking for more and more senior level posts, which would cause further wasteful expenditure without functional justification. It is time to review real requirement of IES posts in Ministries and abolish surplus posts immediately. All secretarial work not covered by their OM dated 31.8.2005 should be immediately taken away from IES officers working against IES cadre posts in Ministries

Sarvesh Moorthy

Analysis of the expenditure

It is high time that some one does analysis of per officer expenditure on training of IAS and other Group A service and compute the ratio. Do we need to invest adequately only on training IAS officers and there is no need for it on other Service officers performing specialised functions for Government? Some RTI activist must collect this data from DoPT.

What made Pratibha's husband say that now his family is a matrilineal one???
So now even at home Pratibha will be number one!!!

From now it will be Devi Singh Patil and not Shekhawat… change in family name!!
And maybe their son will do the same!!!

She'll be moving into Rashtrapathi Bhavan with her family and a lot of baggage!!!
Baggage meaning her past and not luggage!!!

The show put up by Congress to celebrate Patil being elected was pathetic!!!
Was obvious that show was arranged whereas celebrations are automatic!!!

These kind of shows are regularly put up outside 10 Janpath…… sham!!!
Rented celebrators to please Madam!!!

Hope in his farewell address Kalam gives UPA a piece of his mind!!!
A verbal kick in the hind!!!

Will Kalam let us know about proclamation of President's rule in Bihar at aadhi raat??
We'd all like to know andhar ki baat!!!

Congress to get a sycophant into Rashtrapathi Bhavan opposed Kalam's renomination!!
And they made it look that on Kalaam not wanting another term they had predomination!

NDA has pitted Najma against Ansari!!
Now for VP's post starts the maara maari!!!

NDA ditching ke liye karr rahe hai Sena ko accuse!!
Keeping Sena at arm's length…… but for VP election Sena has no excuse!!

Both candidates are Muslims…… if one was a Hindu then Sena would have been in a fix!!
Because with politics Sena religion karti hai mix!!!

In the end both Sena and BJP will come around!!!
A way to patch up will be found!!

Somnath Da is sad……. leave President he could not even become VP,
That's 'left' Somanth Da sad and weepy!!

Barnala too is feeling down…… DMK could not get him the VP's job!!!
Barnala is sad and his family karr rahi hai sob!!!

Badal gives Sangath Darshan whereas Amrinder nowadays is on a Jail Darshan spree!!
He meets his chamchas who are jailed…. and then sympathy comes free!!!

Punjab's finances are precarious ….. Badal should re-look his sops!!!
And on some sops apply stops!!!

And Junior should correlate his dreams with the financial reality!!
Because the mismatch will make Punjab the casualty!!

There was some cross voting in Haryana but not what Bishnoi had boasted!!!
After the election by Hooda's pals Hooda was toasted!!

Bishnoi says that they did not press for more cross votes….symbolical protest!!!
Dud argument after failing the test!!

Hooda's parked his Honda City and reverted to Sarkaari car!!!
Sarkaari car that on its bonnet has the famous and coveted star!!!!

Hooda's son seems to be doing a lot of inaugurations …… getting into limelight!!!
After all he has the right to use Papa's might!!!

How can land that has been allotted to Big B by fudging belong to him????
Ownership is not as per his whim!!!

Pune land was got on the basis of being a kisan….. a fudged one!!!
And now not only is he in a fix…. in a fix is also his son!!!

Now he's trying his best to wiggle out……. wiggling will fail!!!
And if law takes its course very soon Big B and son will be applying for bail!!

Amar Singh is busy answering ED's queries!!!
And in his style questions with questions he parries!!

And ED Officials should get ready for shayro shayri!!
And they should remember if they do not say ' irshaad' he could get fiery!!!

But nowadays Amar treats the Media like they the plague…could also be the other way too!!!
Because the other day I asked a Journalist about Amar and he said ' Amar…who'!!!
