PAL Code on India Post Web Site
As reported by us on July 15, 2008, Department of Posts is indeed considering a new post code called Postal Address Locator Code (PAL Code) to replace PIN Code. It has put up a presentation on its web site, www.indiapost.gov.in , calling for views from its officers, staff and customers. On first reading, the new code indeed appears to hold a lot of promise. But it is hard to believe that merely by changing the postcode; such unparalleled improvements can be brought about in mail delivery. At the same time it must be admitted that the concept definitely is based on sound logic and appears to be quite practical. Public services in India are not known to take bold initiatives. The very fact that India Post has taken the first step, which is extremely bold, its top management deserves full compliments. We wish them all success and hope that other public services too follow their example.

SAIL takes firm steps to contain retail steel prices
The country's flagship public sector undertaking in the steel sector, Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL)being headed by S.K.Roongta, has informed its MoU HR Coil customers in writing that their purchases from the company are only meant for actual consumption and that any resale of the product will attract punitive action. The MoU customers have also been advised to inform SAIL about their stock position on a regular basis. These directions are part of a slew of measures taken by the company to ensure that retail prices of its steel products are contained in the market.SAIL, which has not changed its selling prices since May 2008, in line with its commitment to the Government, has also cautioned its dealers about selling SAIL products beyond MRRP limits. Branch sales offices of SAIL have been alerted to keep a strict vigil on this and instructed to stop supplies to dealers who do not adhere to the direction. SAIL has already informed the public about operating MRRP of products like TMT Bar and GP/GC sheets through newspaper advertisements and its own website www.sail.co.in. The company has also advertised in newspapers about the chargeable price of HR Coil in the National Capital Region.Among other measures taken to contain retail prices of SAIL products in the market, is an advisory to trade MoU customers to limit retail margins to within Rs. 1,200 per tonne over the price at which they have procured from SAIL. Any departure from this limit will invite stern action. These customers have also been advised to inform SAIL about their stockholding of SAIL products on a weekly basis.To further ensure that steel reaches actual consumers at correct prices, SAIL has introduced a special scheme in Kolkata and Faridabad for supply of HSM Plates and CR Coils/Sheets to consumers who require up to 10 tonnes of these items against an affidavit acknowledging self-consumption. This has also been advertised through the print media.

FORUM
Fall out of abolishing DIG's post

The IPS officers have been advocating vigorously abolishing the post of DIG, which keeps them lagging behind in comparison to IAS officers who directly jump to the grade of Joint Secretary after the post of director. This makes the difference in IAS and IPS very much visible. I do not have any opposition if IPS officers get DIG post abolished. But PROMOTEE IPS officers, who have very short tenure as IPS unlike that of direct recruits, may feel the problem. The SPS officers normally do not reach at the rank of IG and the post of DIG being abolished may affect their last promotion adversely. If the timing of promotion in to IG is also brought down at par with IAS, of course SPS officers will feel happy to be promoted as IGs instead of DIGs in the same length of service. Hence the abolition of post of DIG has to be considered after taking into account the interest of SPS officers.

Agreement 123 in national interest

If UPA does not win the 'Trust Vote'on 22.07.2008, that would mean defeat of the Nation because Nuclear Deal is surely going to give benefits to all people of this great country i.e. India including poor.

Old age homes and story

Reading today's bit on 'old age homes' was a very sad reminder of how fast the values of our society are deteriorating. It reminded me of a story I just came across which I thought of sharing with the readers. A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year - old grandson. The old man's hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered.

The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth.

The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess.
'We must do something about father,' said the son.
'I've had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.'

So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.

When the family glanced in Grandfather's direction, sometimes he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food.

The four-year-old watched it all in silence.

One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor.
He asked the child sweetly, 'What are you making?'
Just as sweetly, the boy responded, 'Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up.'

The four-year-old smiled and went back to work.

The words so struck the parents so that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done.

That evening the husband took Grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled.
I've learned that, regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.

I do hope this bit will add weight age to Mr. Saxena's piece.
