Bharat writes well but---

Bharat writes well. My compliments. But let us not berate Sanjay's case. If we think of the 90's and the state of law and order in Bombay when Dawood and Salim ruled the Bollywood, to ensure safety for his father and sisters and for himself Sanjay took these steps and unfortunately he was caught and many others escaped. Courts have to take a humane view and also should condemn the law and order authorities who must take their blame. Though ignorance of law is no excuse but law can not be applied blind-folded.

Why do not CSS officers feel happy ?
This is apropos 'Woes of CSS'. Will somebody tell the gentleman and his likes that their main problem lies somewhere else. They have a misplaced notion of kinship with IAS and other Group 'A' Services. Better for them not to act superior to their Bara Bhais - the DR Assistants and work for the common good. And one more thing - the entry level of CSS is DR Assistant and not those who sat for competition for the IAS and ended up being Section Officers. Why don't they just keep the consolation prize and be happy with it?
Suman K Sharma

Why every service seeks parity with IAS ?
The suggestions provided by SK Sharma for providing the CSS and the IAS same footing were interesting and mind churning and the justification advanced was apparently this that these two services basically do the same work at the centre. I fail to understand as to why every service seeks parity with the IAS by extending some weird logics all the time. Every service has some assets and some liabilities and even the IAS is not an exception. Rather than nurturing IAS-phobia the members of all the services should try to excel wherever they are. Only then can the country march ahead. As for Sharma I can only say that an IAS officer has expertise in and exposure of not only secretarial work but field also, not only matters pertaining to central and concurrent list but state list also and that probably puts them in different league altogether.
Rajesh Kumar Singh

Everybody has a right to grow
The issues raised by S K Sharma regarding the plight of CSS officers
is OK. But it is sad that he forgets that everyone in this system has a
right to grow and get his due either he is recruited as a clerk or as an
IAS officer. The issue to be raised is timely promotion, growth &
recognition to every section of Indian Bureaucracy

My comment is out of context to the news item.

But the word Honesty calls for some comments in general terms: definition of honesty has been evolving over years in government organisations. Now, it is that those who only take a fixed % without arm twisting as per the system are honest. Those who take % as they want are super efficient/practical official. Those who falls outside the above are either don't have opportunity or don't have guts or impractical fool.

Film will prove to be milestone

The Bollywood film titled "Chak De India" released on August 10, 2007, will definitely prove to be a milestone in restoring lost glory of Indian Hockey. The lead role has been played by King Khan of the Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan. Significantly this film strikes against political interference on the horizon of Indian sports both in the play field and out side the play field. Its a real tribute to those who espoused, survived & thrived only for the game of Hockey, till middle of 1985.

It is encouraging to hear 'Sare jahan se achcha..' tune from every second vehicle, but its disheartening one gets to hear this, only when the vehicle is moving in reverse.

Congress says that had it taken the consensus route 123 Deal would have got stuck!!
Hence form the consensus route UPA ne kiya duck!!!

Commies say that UPA has negotiated a bad deal!!!
Say that for USA deal is a steal!!!

But Commies are not going to demand a Vote in Parliament on the deal!!!
They say outside Parliament in the Public domain UPA ko karren ge deal!!!

Manmohan will in all probability call the Commies over for a meal!!
And try to explain them as they drink and eat that deal for US is not a steal!!

Modi and Jaitley are a combination that is formidable!!!
And when it comes to managing elections Jaitley is indeed very capable!!!

And the dissident lot in BJP know if BJP looses power will go!!!
So they are going to huff and puff but they'll never blow!!!

And then there are still five months to go!!!
So there's time to resolve the row!!

So Sonia Ji don't take Gujrath to be a cakewalk!!
Get a survey done and then strategy karro chalk!!

Government is planning to hike prices of fuel!!
Inflation this step will fuel!!!

Why such a steep hike…..hasn't strong Rupee reduced the losses???
And Deora needs to talk to PSU Oil Sector Bosses.

Oil Majors are spendthrifts and this spending needs to be cut down!!!
With Public Money how can they clown???

Oil prices will come down in 2008….. in 2007 winter prices will rise!!!
And at present a rise of Rs. 2 for Petrol and Rs. 1 for Diesel should suffice!!!

Maybe the talk that rise will be Rs. 4 for petrol and Rs. 2 for Diesel is a ploy!!!
To make us accept the Rs. 2 and Rs.1 increase happily Sarkar karr rahi hai humm se toy!

On the Srikrishna Report NCP is maintaining a studies silence…… why????
Time karr rahi hai NCP buy!!!

Legal opinion on reopening of cases is that it's too late!!!
For so long why did Sakraar wait????

Insiders say on this matter Pawar will tacitly side with Sena!!
Chalta rehta hai NCP and Sena ke beech mein lena dena!!

The good Lady holding the scales is blindfolded and cannot hear beyond Court's walls!!
So she cannot hear the free or keep Sanjay in jail calls!!!

Socialites, Bollywood , Fans and certain sections of Media want Sanjay to be let out on bail!!!
These people feel public opinion will get him out of jail!!

These people have made Gandhigiri into a joke!!!
In reel life he preached Gandhigiri but in real life Sanjay is a 'Bhaigiri' kind of bloke!!!

Badal Junior says Amrinder is frustrated… Sukhbir should step into Amrinder's joothas,
And then he too would have one of the saddest boothas (face)!!!

Amrinder pines to be with Arusa and in Congress abh uss ki daal nahi galthi!!
And taking on Diwedi now he realizes was a galthi!!!

Separated form his love, damned by his Party and ditched by his supporters he's sad!!!
He's now longing to go back to his London pad!!!!

Enemy's enemy is a friend and so Laloo has offered ICL Railway ground aid!!!
'ICL can use Railway grounds' this offer by Laloo was made!!

Will Subhash Packer Goyal succeed the Packer way????
At present to this question responses are a very feeble ' he may'!!!

Why doesn't ICL think of starting two day one inning matches???
Maybe Public's fancy this catches!!

Team has to bat its innings through the day!!!
And if does not via minus points it'll have to pay!!

Test Matches take too much time and One Dayers are too short!!!
With Two Day Matches dono problem ho jaathe hai sort!!!
