Aaj Ki Aawaz SP means Socialites Party and SP is living up to this name!!!! Mulayam and Amar have been penning request to PMO and PMO too seems to be game! Amar's letter was forwarded to the concerned Ministry spontaneously!!!! Though Mulayam's letter has not been given the same priority curiously!!! Both have written letters in favor of Anil Ambani!!! As you know Anil is Amar's jaani!!!! Will Amar write to PMO that Big B's Unforgettable Show income not be taxed???? Maybe this request to PMO will be very soon faxed!!! Or maybe now he'll demand that towards Flex the Sarkaar become flexible!!! Demand that Flex should find Sarkaar accessible!!!! Amar could also write to PMO for a number of starlets!!!! Many of whom he takes to be like his pets!!!! Samaajwaad gayi bhaad mein and PM is only too happy to play Santa Claus!!!! This is the effect for the cause!!!!! By the way PM's Press Adviser has read the writing on the wall!!! And has taken the call!!! He's left the PMO and is on his way to Singapore or Lion City !!! His SMSs were really witty!!!! Like 'the tiger has gone into the Parliament' or 'Singh is King'!!!! Left and right SMSs karta tha Baru fling!!! I've said this in the past and I say it again!!! Rajdeep Sardesai is in the Journalism of gain!!! Now BJP MPs involved in the IBN sting say CDs have been edited!!! And the real masala scenes involving Amar and Patel have been omitted!! I feel Rajdeep's also plugging for an MP nomination!!!! And to get this he knows the denomination!!! Maya gave an 85 minute 'I am PM material' speech!!! And also indicated that heir ko karr rahi hai teach!!! A pale and weak looking Natwar Singh was also on stage!!!! I'm sure mentally apni 'durrdasha' karr raha tha gauge!!! Maya Madam Rahul's speech in Parliament was not all that bad!!! Maya tried to show that 'poverty alleviation' was just a Gandhi family fad!! And for Laloo she had just scorn!!! She said but for Ambdekar he'd be still living in the house he was born!!! She's confident that the cases against her will come to naught!!!! Seems lesson in 'how to wiggle out' she's been taught!!! Laloo and Mulayam have the expertise in doing the wiggle!!!! And we've seen out of many a 'iron clad' cases they've been able to wriggle!!! Shivraj Patil says on terrorism UPA's not been soft and for this he cites stats!! On a very sticky wicket he bats!!!Lost count how many times he's been caught sleeping on the wheel!!! And how softly terrorism ko kiya hai deal!!!If you ask terrorists they'll vote Shivraj Home Minister Number One!!!! Next to him they'll say there is no one!!! After failing to control inflation now Congress is planning an ad campaign!!! USP of ads will be to show that Congress did not cause Aam Aadmi pain!!! Ad Companies will give Rahul Baba presentations!!!! And then Rahul Baba with Mom and Sis will hold deliberations!!!! I hope he keeps his Dad's Rediffusion ad campaign in mind!!!! The campaign flopped and verdict was that Rediff's Nanda was out of his mind!!! How can we forget Rajiv's ' Naani yaad karra denge' chant!!!! And the Public gave Congress the boot indicating 'you can't'!!!!! Though the chant has come true now!!!!! Naani yaad karaa di humm sabh ko and you know how???

Ruling Party ads must show what the Party has done!!! Apart form an incomplete Deal Congress has none!!!! Adds…. Home Budgets are insecure and on all other fronts we are insecure!!! Just before UPA took over on internal and food fronts Indian was very secure!Adds.... BJP's ad jingle should be 'jaane kahaa gaye woh dinn'!!!!!! Naani yaad aa gayi na Desh-wasion.....see for yourself the trouble you and India are in!!!! Bharat Kumar FORUM Government must take advice about 6th Pay Commission Government of India must take advice from America for granting sixth pay commission for their employees. Actually present government cannot grant or sanction anything without consultation of America. And also government should placed the sixth pay commission to United Nations before implementation. Kyonki hamare des ko netao ko apne hi des ke karamchari nikkme lagte hai aur unko lagta hai ki des ka sara paisa sirf government employee ko hi jaa raha hai. Sirf neta hi free mein desh ko chala rahe hai. Raj Has sixth Pay Commission vanished ?Where has the 6th Pay Commission vanished. Kindly keep us updated as to what is the latest position. Are we going to see the pay commission being implemented this year? And what about the news regarding increase in the retirement age? This is too much for us to handle.Seema Rule 6.2.2 1.It is a very good rule. However, nobody should be allowed to join an organisation with whom the officer had official dealing in the past whether directly or indirectly. ]2.The benefit of this rule should be given to Central services too. 3.It will give the officers a rounded exposure, a reality check and a break from the ivory tower we are sitting in. 4.It will also mean that some good officers of Government will go to private sector and help in wealth creation and nation building. 5.Bureaucrats can definitely benefit from their experience in Private sector. 6.There is enough talent in Government to take place of bureaucrats who will leave. 7. It will also help solve the problem of stagnation in higher bureaucracy. I urge the PM to reconsider his decision. Anand Why not post an Army officer ? It was heartening to read that Cabinet Secretary is not in favour of jumping the queue in posting empanelled officers to the Ministry. But what about suitability as against seniority? Officers from IES should be posted to Economic Affairs. Similarly, Defence Ministry also needs officers who have experience of Defence matters. In spite of integration of Service HQrs with the Ministry why look for an IAS officer to look after Ex Servicemen Welfare? Why not post a senior Army officer? Lt Col Dewan (Retird) Inform about vacancies I think you should also intimate viewers about upcoming vacancy in bureaucracy at higher levels. To start with, you can inform viewers about vacancy of post of Finance Advisor in DSIIDC in Delhi. Officers of IAAS, IDAS, IPoAS upto 1990 batch can apply to MD, DSIIDC, Delhi. Manjoj Kumar Parida Harrassment in CGHS I fully agree with Ashwinis comment about harassment by CGHS authorites. Why does the CGHS doubt the doctors of recognized hospitals or the officers who till they retired took all the decisions. CGHS and Government hospitals are short staffed over worked and yet CGHS wants only to harass and delay the pensioners and increase the cost to the tax payer. Is DG CGHS listening? Rajesh R Khanna IRS Transfers, what an idea ? About 40% of the IRS commissioners are busy settling into their new postings and hardly attending office. They find houses, gas connections, bedroom-drawing room-dining furniture, curtains for new houses, new car, new servants, new crockery at new city, etc. All of this of course would be interspersed with weekly visits to the old station where the families will stay on. Thus the "system" will be burdened in two places. One to look after the officer and one to look after the family. Add to that the cost of weekly commuting by air and you can be sure that we have a really buoyant economy. Once they settle in by November they start work and then start working on next transfer season by Feb. Some are trying to have kids so that after some years they will be in 12th and help parents escape transfers. Others trying to be in vigilance, some trying to fall ill, etc. What an idea? IRS Transfers have caused so much dissatisfaction that over a hundred Commissioners have represented to FM against the transfer orders based on education clause or other irrelevant clauses. Is FM wondering if this is an over-reaction or a genuine grievance against the impractical clerical application of a policy. Discerning man IRS transfers The statistics are sickening, if correct, and indicate at gross pervesity and damage to tax administration. Vijay How many IRS transfers- The figure mentioned is inclusive of the transfers reversed or changed within a month or so. The actual number of officers involved would be less .Therefore this should not come in way of those who even now seek change on medical/family grounds. There would be only a handful of commissioners with children now in class 10 or 12 in view of the fact that it takes almost 20 yrs to be a commissioner after joining service. There are cases which I can give ,where officers have made bogus claims for immediate gains and thus hoodwinked the bosses at the cost of others. CBDT should therefore examine such bogus claims and take appropriate action against such beneficiaries. Why there are no such claims by officers posted in non metros? Time for CBDT brass to wake up and get out of clutches of petty middle level functionaries in their own backyard. Ranjan Sahay Needs of retired officers At last the government has woken up to the needs of officers in their late fifties and how they dread retirement without pay, house, work, just going nuts thinking for next 30 years. Poor Old Officer Education system in Chandigarh The Government has allotted land to the private schools at very nominal cost with the understanding that these private institutions will share govts burden and provide free or concessional education to all and in any rate free education to economically weaker class.
