Aaj Ki Aawaz

Some people stoop to conquer or win!!!
Rarest of rare like Amar Singh to win go into the gutter or kachera ka bin!!!
Its alleged that CDs being distributing contain a Amar frame up sting!!
And he roped in Uma and asked her ki at BJP the CD she should publicly fling!!
The sting fell flat on its face as the sting itself let the cat out of the bag!!!!
The sting showed someone walking out of Jaitley's house with a bag!!!
Then with the bag he's shown entering Agral's ghar!!!!
With a bag joh its alleged currency notes ke saath diya tha Jaitley ne bhar!!!
But the board outside Agral's house revealed that the sting was fixed!!!!
And self praise board outside Agral's home got the sting nixed!!!
The board advertised Agral's honesty during the recent confidence vote!!!
How could he have advertised his honesty before the vote please do take note????
Now Amar Singh has stopped taking calls and has literally gone underground!!!
Though some say for 'treatment' he's US bound!!!!
Rumored that he's trying his level best IBN CD is not aired!!!!
Because he knows then his game will be bared!!!
But why is IBN not airing the CD????
Why is IBN being so seedy?????
Its Media's duty to put its findings in the Public Domain!!!!
At present all attmepts are being made that in its CD cover CD rahe remain!!!
A word of advice for Sonia Gandhi….beware of Amar Singh!!!
You may be talking shop with him and on him a secret camera could be whirring!!
Amar Singh has taken politics to new lows!!!!
With goodness and propriety he's always seems to be at blows!!!
As for Uma Bharti seems for now she's hit a roadblock!!!!
And very soon she's going to loose her dwindled flock!!!
Mohna or Manmohan needs to realize terrorism will not stop on his call!!!
Till stern measures are not taken they will continue having a bloody ball!!
When it comes to challenging terrorism Mohna is the weakest PM India's had!!!
And all because of his Boss's 'majority minority appeasement' fad!!!
Why were NDA Managers not able to hold together their flocks????
Seems they forgot to put the padlocks!!!!
And they knew 'wolves' were prowling around!!!
Were they asleep or deaf that they did not hear a sound????
At Commies Somnath Da continues to thumb his nose!!!!!
Now questions bhi karta hai Somanth pose!!!
Though Commies have not given up,
Thinking of new strategies as UPA ko they can no longer say 'hands up'!!!!
My feeling is that at the very end of his career Somnath Da has given up Communism!!!
Seems he realized Communism is just Politburo's opportunism!!!
But Somnath Da is not a Speaker whose unbiased!!!!
Because against his ex Party he's turned biased!!
We got to see this when Dasgupta spoke during the Confidence Vote!!!!
The subtle acidic banter between them many did note!!!
PC keeps giving us fibs pe fibs on inflation abating!!!!
Inflation will come down soon he's been stating!!!
Onion prices have started to rocket!!!
With onions veggie prices will also rise making a bigger hole in the pocket!!
For India 's sake from RBI Governorship Montek should be kept away!!!!
Or India will dearly pay!!!!
In his current Avtar we've heard and seen Montek act!!!!!
And he's proved to be one big flop as DCPC and this is a fact!!!!
He's made predictions time and again and has flopped time and again!!!
Should the Government expose us to more Montek pain????
He's lived on the house for long!!!!
Let his DCPC job be his swan song!!!!
And very soon Mohna will be joining him and they can walk and talk!!!
Only problem is that Mohna bahut fast karta hai walk!!!
Confucius says….Indian economy is in shatters with these two economists at the helm!!!
Fact is their economics took a backseat as politics ne kiya economics ko overwhelm!!!

Bharat Kumar

Happy to learn that whispers forum is turning to become like Indian news channels by engaging itself in activities ( sting ???) like Purdah Phash/ Benakab/ Kharbardar/ Aaj ka sabase bada Khulasa ityadi ityadi

GPF Interest rate
I have read the suggestions given by one of the viewer regarding increase in the interest rate of GPF. No doubt previously a Govt. employee was getting 12% interest (compound) and after that he was entitled for 1% bonus, if no withdrawal of any kind is taken from the GPF during the financial year. Day by day the Govt. is reducing the interest on GPF, because the 'BABU' category (including top officers in Government Department) is that category which will say nothing and not raise his voice in their interest. No doubt some senior level officers wish to increase the rate of interest but they are helpless and the politicians do not want to interfere in this. I think, this is the time that Govt. can announce the increase in the GPF interest in the coming 6th Pay Commission Report. I hope the people will agree with me. On one side Govt. says that the GPF is for the older age and for the children of the employees, on the other, to take loan from the GPF we have to give lame excuses or proof for withdrawal of the same. This practice should also be stopped with immediate effect. Thanks for reading my ides.

Retirement Age

The issue should be addressed w.r.t. fitness, experience, productivity and cost to the employer. Considering Government job as a means of mass employment defeats the very purpose. Sustainable jobs are created by private entrepreneurs and development works for which surplus money required can come from higher productivity e.g. distributing enhanced works to existing experienced manpower (improve their skills as required) with minimal addition. Improved employment conditions will attract better talents to Government job.

Rajeev Agrawal

IFS officers

When IFS officers want more proportion, have they created more forests. Even the existing forests are depleted. While asking for promotion, please report your contribution.

P K Mishra

Ten cheers for Delhi High Court.

The High Court has really upheld the greatness of the judiciary by not hesitating to strike down the ultra vires rule of retrospective application of transfer policy. The Finance Ministry should not feel bad because this is the settled rule of law.

An

Celebrations in IRS.

The IT Commissioners who were retained on child education ground [which was not part of transfer policy] are celebrating as the old rule had covered children's education and now that the new policy stands nullified on grounds of equity, those retained can apply for retention under the old rule when the transfers come up for review this month.

TAIL-PIECE

Ek faqir maangne ke liye masjid ke baahar baitha raha ...
Sab namaazi aankh bacha kar chale gaye ...
Usey kuch na mila ...
Woh phir church gaya, phir mandir aur phir gurudware ...
Lekin usko kissi ne kuch na diya ...
Aakhir ek maikhane ke baahar aakar baith gaya ...
Jo sharabi nikalta uske katorey mein kuch daal deta ...
Uska katora noton se bhar gaya ...
Faqir bola, "wah mere khuda... !!
Rahtey kahaan ho aur address kahaan ka dete ho ....
