Gurjar Singh The answer to the above question is a big Yes . The entire bureaucratic
setup is inefficient, corrupt and arrogant. It can be very well seen
from the plight of the common man and the country that inspite of 62
years of independence, we still have largest population below poverty
line, our infrastructure system very crude, lack of proper basic facilities
like healthcare, education, water, etc. Jatin Kumar To be honest, I find your debate on the issue 'whether Indian bureucracy
is worst in South Asia' quite unfair and insensitive. I am no supporter
of our existing bureaucratic system but to condemn a system that has
served the nation, with all its ills, for past sixty years by using
sweeping generalities is not fair either. Bureaucrats cannot be disassociated
from the wide spectrum of the society they represent. Where else in
the world people take so much pride in violating rules, jumping red
lights on the road, honking incessantly, spitting and peeing wherever
they feel like, defacing national monuments. By putting the blame of
all the ills chosen by a larger segment of the populace on their own
volition, on a minuscule institution is not a debate. It would only
demoralize a still very large junk in various civil services who are
performing their duties with due diligence and in right earnest. Why
not also ask the questions like: Guljari Comedy of errors? The survey on Indian bureaucracy has, it seems, ignored a very vital
point! It does not take into account the contribution to the Indian
democracy by the Indian bureaucracy. The Indian bureaucracy has given
to the Indian democracy Vice President, Prime Ministers, Speaker of
the Lok Sabha, Ministers, State Ministers, Chief Ministers and MPs/MLAs
! Is it not a proof of its efficiency? Doubts can be removed if the
thousands of those who have succeeded in acquiring the status "equivalent
to a High court Judge" are taken into account. To this class of
High Court Judges belong thousands of bureaucrats not only in the business
of information but several committees or commissions or quasi-judicial
tribunals. Many more have enjoyed a status of a Cabinet Minister. What
more proof of the efficiency of the Indian bureaucracy is needed? Unless
there is some error in interpreting the term bureaucracy to mean all
government employees, the survey is a comedy to be enjoyed as a comedy
of errors! M L Gupta Now it is difficult to identify corrupt as most of them are corrupt.
It will be better if CVC start looking after towards Honest Officer
as no one is bothered about them. A K Ahuja Guljari is right about discussion on India as the most corrupt country
etc being demoralising. I think we should look at the brighter side
and take a wide view of the last 60 years and the overall performance
of the Indian State. If we compare ourselves to China , I think it becomes
very clear that the fundamental choice in 1947 lay between being a corrupt
capitalist democracy or a clean communist dictatorship whose hands drip
with the blood of genocide, labour camps and other such brutalities.
So take your pick....do you want corruption and freedom or bloodshed
and Puritanism? You cannot have everything or have it both ways. Since
our political leadership chose corrupt capitalist democracy as India’s
path to the future it is natural that we have to live with the consequences
of that decision. It makes no sense to bash the IAS or this or that
service. This is like Brahmin bashing. Everyone enjoys it. It is one
easy way to escape responsibility for the nations ills. The Brahmins
preserved the knowledge of the Vedas inspite of nearly a thousand years
of foreign rule when they were persecuted and victimised by the foreigners
and every attempt was made to erase Indian culture. Therefore, is it
right or fair to indulge in Brahmin bashing? We should be proud of ourselves
as a nation where everyone has contributed his mite to nation building
in the last 60 years.. All this was achieved without bloodshed , genocide
or forced labour camps in India. Even our much hated political class
has piloted the Indian State through the rapids without sinking it .In
the last 60 years the IAS has performed yeoman service in building a
modern India from the ashes of British colonialism .We , as an ex- colonial
people suffer from a great inferiority complex and therefore join the
foreigners in denigrating all that is good and strong and worthwhile
in India and which has helped India survive foreign invasion and the
domination of foreign cultures. It was the early Anglican and Catholic
priests who denounced the Hindu caste -system as the caste system made
it virtually impossible for foreigners to penetrate Indian society.
Unfortunately , westernised Indian political leaders like Gandhi and
Nehru repeated the criticism parrot like without going into the real
merits and demerits of the caste system. The Indian westernised elite
is filled with self-contempt because it apes the West and does not like
its own image in the mirror. Hence all this unbalanced breast beating
in India. No other nation indulges in such a past time. Other nationalities
openly and unashamedly boast of their achievements. So should we. We
should be proud of our IAS for having been on the forefront of the nations
rise to super power status. If we have problems today it is because
we have been successful. Our population explosion is because of the
successful medical cover that the government extended. The growth of
education in India also led to a greater political awareness and a demand
for more from the general population. Is that such a bad thing? And
we are still a vibrant democracy where you can debate till the end of
time whether you are the worlds most corrupt nation or not. D Choudhury Grade 'D' Stenos of CSSS meted out injustice The scheme of financial upgradation has been introduced by the Government,
as I understand, as compensation in the absence of regular promotion. We
have put in twelve years of service in the grade of Steno 'D'
and increasing our pay by only an amount of Rs.400/- to keep
at the next grade pay, i.e. Rs.2800/- works as a disincentive rather
than as an incentive. I feel this is an injustice done to all
Grade 'D' Stenos of CSSS. -Manoj Poor management in Indian P&T, AFS Cadre Department of Telecom needs 10 Directors at HQ on deputation.
This shows poor management of the Indian P&T,AFS Cadre. The intake
in the service has been very poor after 2000. Difference between Central Services and all India services is merely
