WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US
Why is it all about the postings of IAS etc officers only? Aren't there any other interesting whispers in the corridors other than these largely irrelevant bits and pieces? Please consider.

Rich is getting richer and----.......................(Print from origin : whispersinthecorridors.com )
Let's give a serious thought to the direction in which our Country is going. Rich is getting richer and poor further poorer. The whole country and all social groups are not developing together, which will create a great problem in future leading to a 'Grahya Yudh' and anarchy. Did Gandhiji and other architects of India ever envisaged this kind of planning or development? Presently we are observing all this nonsense in our daily life but unfortunately doing nothing except fixing the responsibility on Leaders or Bureaucrats. Do we ever sincerely give thoughts to our own actions and inactions. Definitely there is shortage of good leaders and our country need at this hour of crisis a few action oriented, decision making, without self interest, honest, accountable and responsible leaders. A leader who will lead India from the front and National interests should always be in his mind above all other interests i.e. regional, religion, cast and personal. We need an executive leader who will work for the development of Nation and welfare of society without fear and favour and will not tolerate any kind of nonsense from any quarter against India. A leader who will think and get developed the basic infrastructure and improve the general living conditions in rural and urban areas alike. Enforce duties and Rights and inculcate general discipline in masses. At this hour of crisis we need leaders who are having strong character, following and respect like that of Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Patel or Lal Bahadur Shastri etc. Our national problems include non-availibility of basic infrastructure (Power, Water & Roads), Education, Population, Corruption, Adulteration, Law & Order and above all indiscipline. We don't respect and consider Nation and Society before our own interest which is highly deplorable and pathetic. Character, Fear, Respect, tolerance welfare / consideration for others etc. are diminishing day by day. Let's rise individually and together and do contribute something for the well being of humanity and India. Please just call the right activity right and WRONG activity wrong. Deny and deplore the wrong, this will be a national service, So start it today and act.
Lets start a mission for better and improved India.

Comments on Kamal Pandey uncalled for
The comments on former Cabinet Secretary using a Maruti 800 from Sunita Sood is totally uncalled for. The gentleman in question did not ask your site to publish his choice of car. Tendencies to pass such comments on anyone's personal life style should be curbed. May be the site itself should start regulating these remarks. Freedom of expression should not be extended to a point where it impinges on others lives.

IRS -no justice
Please don't forget the holy fact that IRS is the only service that scrupulously punishes its officers. Case in point are of Ashok Aggarwal-1985 who is under suspension for more than 10 years & one Gopala-1967 batch officer who retired after being under suspension for more than 20 years. One often wonders, whether justice can be so cruel! Keeping some one under suspension for 10/20 years, shows gross inefficiency if not victimisation.

Regarding sixth pay commission...........................(Print from origin : whispersinthecorridors.com )
Regarding 6th Pay Commission, it is strange that importance is given only to HRA. By giving more HRA, only the market rent is going to increase and in a couple of years, this HRA will be simply nothing. This will benefit only the employees owing house in Delhi and others occupying Government quarters or staying on rent are nowhere. It would be better if the Report pays more attention to Basic Pay, promotional avenues like at least 4 ACPs instead of present 2 and CCA. This will certainly benefit the employees because the pay which they receive will be to their benefit and it will not go to a third person.

Mention also needed to be made about women working in Government office. In private office they are responsible for the work they do. But here and particularly in stenography line, even the PS, PPPs and Senior PPPs who are ladies do not own much responsibility and ultimately the poor lower level grade staff in this line are taxed and made to sit late. Even otherwise, in stenography line, most of the PPS and Senior PPPs simply say that they won't take dictation because they are gazetted and attend only to telephones and other normal work which can be done by any ordinary person. Will something be done to set right this.

Loan waiver ke liye don't let Opposition take kudos',
This is the order to Congressmen from their High Command cum CEO cum Boss!!!

Now maybe Congressis will be seen with posters on the front and back!!!!
'Congress has given Farmers their due and now Farmers should pay Congress back'!

Sonia nowadays seems to be in a very jovial state of mind,
Seems to always keep laughing a novel way kiya hai Sonia ne find!!!

She's got a joke book and time and again she reads it!!!
And then she keeps laughing because of the wit!!

She does this because she follows an adage 'laugh and the world will worry'!!!
Now on her jovial mood there is a questions ki flurry!!!!

Rumored the joke book she reads is in Italian and full of Italian humor!!!!
She could be reading Laloo's statements is another rumor!!!!

In Indian Hockey Rahul ne favoritism ko kiya hai decry!!!!
Congress is plagued with favoritism and first to cure Congress he should try!!!

If you don't have a spine then in Congress sky is limit!!!!
And if you have one then to progress in Congress there is a limit!!!

In Indian politics Rahul decries the lateral entry at the top!!!!
This phenomena is most prevalent in Congress and should stop!!!

Just ask Rahul to type out his Resume and he'll realize,
It's just his name because of which hothaa hai woh recognize!!!

And it's his surname that has made him parachute to the position he is in,
Hearing Rahul's 'lateral entry' statement most Indians ne kiya hogaa grin!!!

Seems before speaking Rahul needs to take a reality check!!!
Then he should evaluate statements to be made vis-à-vis reality in his upper deck!!

Don't you feel Commies are getting a taste of their own medication or pill!!!
Though BJP should offer to pay for Yechury's car's repair bill!!!

One Commie is chupp, two Commies make a din, three Commies and you have unrest!!
And anything above four and humanity is put to test!!!!

So what happened to Commies was just tit for tat and they deserved it,
Those who hit others should also be prepared to get hit!!!

See the Nandigram carnage,
When on humanity Commie cadres ne war kiya tha wage.

And Yechury is crying for a broken car window!!!!
Take him to Nandigram and make him meet every widow!!!

But you'll have to drag him there with him kicking and crying!!!
To get out of your grip his best he'll be trying!!!

In Punjab as Badal has called him the Fasli Batera or Partridge is back,
Though now the spit and fire this Batera aka Amrinder karr raha hai lack!!!

Batera was responsible for vindictiveness and now he's crying foul!!!!
Badal calls him Batera and some in Congress call him a worn out fowl!!!

He's an avid hunter and has shot many birds and so the birdy names for him!!!
And don't forget his 'other bird' whim!!!!

Amrinder says he noting the Akali atrocities in a book,
Question is ' has Sonia let him off the hook'!!!!

After Natwar's exit Amrinder too is considered to be 'stray'!!!!
Insiders say that he's toying with the idea of on his own jumping into the fray!!!

Speaking of Natwar…. seems now Natwar rues his step of resigning!!!!
Says it was a momentary step and there was no designing!!!

Seems the Jats who had gathered got him carried away,
But then he takes solace that someday he would have been shown the way!!!

He's planning to circulate draft of his book to non Congress Parties!!!!
The books are inscribed in his hand ' I'm available and could be of use me hearties'!!!!!

Confucius says…… once a turncoat always a turncoat,
Turncoat's are 'fits any size' coat!!!!!
