Contact-suresh.mehrotra@yahoo.com> & <mehrotra.suresh@gmail.com> Aaj Ki Aawaz Do you think
Sonia would have reacted angrily if Congress did not have a buffer?????
She would then flown to Chennai with a trunk full of shawls and a deal!!!! Agreed to lesser seats and CBI's shackling to make Karuna's 'wounds' heal!!
But now as there was no threat to UPA Sarkaar Sonia went ballistic!!! And then politics is the art of being extremely opportunistic!!
Congress now feels its association with DMK is causing it pain!!! It is not TN but Nationwide that Congress worries about DMK's 2 G stain!!
Where DMK has the 2 G stain Congress has the inflation stain!! And dono stains combined means in TN 'Jaya's gain' and Nationally BJP's gain!
So now the message is ' Sonia has told DMK Nation comes first'!!! To regain credibility under Karuna's wheelchair this cracker Sonia did burst!!
Though Karuna can turn around and say ' Madam aren't Congress Mantris making a killing'!!!! 'Nation comes first' in them why are you not instilling???
Congress also is allergic to taking SP's active support!!! And Maya's active support means to Maya a senior Congress Neta would hourly report!
So the message that was given to DMK was 'enjoy power in Delhi till its there'!!! 'And do keep in mind in TN badly DMK is going to fare'!!
'Its better to have some power than be powerless .......do keep in mind', 'And to get Karuna behind bars some case Jaya will find'!!
'And then being in power in Delhi will come handy'!! 'And then do not forget DMK Mantirs in Delhi will continue to make candy'!!
Mohna has blamed Prithviraj for not informing him about Thomas's case!! And Prithviraj says Kerala Government to blame with a straight face!!
Mohna thinks we are fools!!! But he should know now his credibility is zero so no one he befools!!
And then during the High Power Committee meeting Sushma informed him about it!! Then like 'Narsimha Rao with a pout but otherwise expressionless' he chose to sit!!
PC acted like a Vakeel and tried to sell to Sushma Congress's choice!! Now Mohna will say that day his hearing was impaired and he did not hear Sushma's voice!
Kitna jhoot bollonge Mohna .stop lying!!! With your credibility going sub zero your lies no one is buying!!
Say it is ' your error of judgement' and if possible hold your ears!!! And you can call Renuka and she'll teach you ' on demand shedding tears'
If the back permits you can hold your ears and do a uttakh baitakh or sit up!! Your lying now is like 'a goat's mengana in its milk' .... and make Congress Spokesmen shut up!!
Now Mamtha's stock has gone up and Pranab Da will be on the defensive!! With Mamtha in WB alliance Congress cannot go on the offensive!!
I think Sonia must have suffered from heartburn just at the thought of taking Jaya's support! Support would mean hourly Ahmed Patel would to Jaya report!!
And when Patel would go to Chennai to met her she'd sit in her bedroom!!! And talk to Patel via the intercom as he sits in the Security ante-room!!
If Balu's rude and crass Jaya is demeaning and insulting!!!! And her idea of giving support is ' ordering and not consulting'!!
Just the tought of Didi's tantrums and Amma's bullying made Sonia feel ill!!!!! With fear her heart did fill!!
But Sonia is desperate that UPA completes its term and hopes a miracle takes place!!! And in the next General Election Congress secures 'first place'!!
Confucius says .. Sonia ki pareshaani ( sung like Munni ki jawani)!! She's very worried because she's gonna loose the title
of being our Rani!!

On one hand there is a flood of vacancies in each and every state of Local Police/ CRPF/ other police forces. There is longer and longer queue of candidates. On other hand Defense forces are looking for its officers. Shortage in Army was first felt during Kargil war. To attract the young blood in Army, it is necessary to provoke the interest of young blood. But no steps have been taken since Kargil. I would like to propose to provoke the interest of young blood through NCC. Only those public schools be approved those have NCC in their schools. Only NCC candidates be conditioned for joining police/ central police or defense service. Shortage is not only in Armed Forces but in all most all central civil services and this trend will continue for long. Remedy lies in outsourcing of non core activities and maximum use of ICT facilities.

DEBATE (2)
A few years back I had gone on a training to England. People there were bothered that young generation are not taking up subjects of Science and Maths and that they envy India. Most of them were opting for BBA/MBA. Recently, I had accompanied my wife, who is a school teacher, for census duty in one of the posh colonies of South Delhi. In one of the houses we were asked by young girl, who was an MBA and working as an Executive in Vodafone, as to what is census. This shows that we are also marching towards the same directions. If you ask the young generations about the latest brands of cars, mobile phones, cloths etc., they will tell you soon. The young generation of today don't know anything about the word 'sacrifice' and is surviving because of the hard earned money of their parents. Most of them are working in multinationals, software companies, call centres etc. with no sense of responsibility. They need fast buck. Many of them are suffering from diabetes and blood pressure. In such a scenario how do you expect the present crop of young generation to join 'Defence Services'. I think that mankind is doomed.

How can PM absolve himself of the responsibility ?
Prime Minister's assertion in Rajya Sabha on March 8, 2011, stating that he was not aware of the Charges against CVC appears to be away from facts. The Prime Minister holds the charge of Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions as displayed on his web page. Lets believe that the then DOPT Minister, Prithviraj Chauhan prepared the list and the recommendation papers did not carry any input on Thomas involvement in corruption then too certain questions arise:-
1. As Minister of DOPT how can he absolve himself of the responsibility of this so called "erroneous" appointment? How can we citizens who swear by his honesty treat his ignorance as an "Un-intentional Mistake"? 2. He said that he came to know about charges during discussions. He also said that objections were raised by the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, Mrs Sushma Swaraj prior to that he was not aware. Why did he not get the objections raised by Ms Swaraj verified and then proceed for CVC's appointment? Why did he disbelief a Senior Leader like Ms. Swaraj who had put her objections in B/W? 3. What was the cause of hurry by PM? 4. Why were other two names in the panel for CVC not considered when objections were raised? 5. Considering the honesty he wears on his sleeves, who mis -informed him about the credentials of Mr. Thomas? 6. Why all the top posts in this country are being held by one section of South Indians and not by people from North, East or West? Is the Nation having dearth of able and competent officers? 7. Whenever process of appointment to important post starts, PMO reportedly receives lot of counter representations. In case of CVC too, PMO would have received written representations. If it received any representation then what was the fate of those documents? 8. Which officer in PMO was responsible of not bringing complaints against Mr. Thomas to the notice of PM? 9. The then DOPT Secretary was known to be a no-nonsense bureaucrat. How did serious charges of corruption against Thomas miss his curious attention? Was the then DOPT Secretary under pressure from some quarter? 10. Who will be held accountable for this faux-pass that has cost we Indians our pride and shaken our trust in Prime Minister? 11. Will ever our PM punish people at fault of this entire episode? 12. There is an annihilation of trust by the Congress Government. What would Mrs. Sonia Gandhi do now to redeem the image that appeared to be "impeccable" on the start of second UPA term? 13. Will the Country be made to bleed for greed of few and till how long?
Like any other Indian I too have many question in my mind, but the jolt that we have got from Manmohan Singh of under performance, clearly reflects "Trust Deficit". It's hard to believe that a person of caliber of Manmohan Singh would act as a mute spectator and see India's image getting battered every day. Please Mr. Prime Minister redeem the lost Trust of we Indians in you, political system and the government.
Nevertheless my head hangs in shame, despair and disbelief. Rajesh Kr/ New Delhi
Whom To Blame?
Often when something goes wrong, all members of the group attempt to pass the blame on each other. But the blame game shifts our focus to who made the mistake rather than what led to the problem or why the problem occurred in the first place. On this note, I would like share a story contributed by Hari Haran.
Boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle. Fascinated by its colour, he drank it all. When the child collapsed the mother rushed him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child , he looked at his wife and uttered just five words. What were the five words? ANSWER: The husband just said "I am with you Darling" The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behaviour.
The Child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened. No one is to be blamed. She had also lost her only child.
What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.
Moral Of The Story: Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this Way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.

Penalise then DoPT Secretary
The then Secretary DoPT should be penalised for not only embarrassing PM but even wasting courts time. Courts should fine such persons

What is the motive ?
Recent recommendation of cabinet secretary to prevent I T Dept to tap phones appears to have two goals. Curb the department's rising power, status and at the same time protect the current future culprits. Other wise why should there be ban, because of the efforts of I T Department tapping new scams have come to light.

Radia exposed TATA and TATA benefit IAS
Tatas were claiming themselves far away from any type of lobby and when phone taping of Radia exposed them, Ratan Tata lost his patience because his long lasted ego was badly affected and hence he filed petition in SC. From last one year IAS officers were not happy with Income tax because of raid in MP on Joshi couple. Now, they will be always scared if IT Dept has power of phone taping and hence they took the benefit of petition of Ratan Tata.

Ideal choice for the next CVC
Recently retired Tribal Affairs Secretary, Gautam Buddha Mukherji will be an ideal choice for the next CVC.
PI
Filling of Constitutional positions
The verdict of SC on the appointment of CVC is clear that the institutional integrity is to be protected at any cost and also reviewed the entire process of appointment. The Govt should not simply follow the convention of considering only the officers who served as Secretary to Govt. Competent persons from other fields and services should also be considered for the posts of CAG, CVC, CEC,CIC etc. Though we have been finding good officers occupying such post in the past, it is high time that the process of selection become transparent in future.
Ram
It will be Ambanis winning over Vedantas
Precisely, it will be Ambanis winning over Vedantas. Even PM and other political parties, may not go against Ambanis on any issue keeping in view that Ambanis have already contributed enormously very high to the Country and well deserve for getting edge over any of his other rival. My personal best wishes to Ambanis and certainly God will be with them and with truth.
H S Bhalla
Total decline
Harri do you remember prosecution of Army Generals in the recent past. What about the perks and facilities which people in Defence Service get. Why blame only the politicians and bureaucrats. The character of the whole nation has gone down.

"The WIC is far above castes and creeds !
Hats off to Vijaylakshmy Gupta ( 27th Feb,11), extolling her qualities, crossed all canons of human dignity. The casteist statement that she was not a 'UP BANIA' but a 'Palghat (Kerala) Brahmin' must have surely offended the sensibilities of other browsers. Such casteist comments that are derogatory to one caste and supremacist to another, are obnoxious. The WIC should not be misused by sick minds, who are socially divisive and think against the spirit of national integration. One hopes, such unwarranted comments are not posted on WIC, in future, as these violate the norms of journalistic ethics. The country is already paying the price for such supremacist attitude and can afford no more caste wars. Dr Suresh Mehrotra, the Editor-in-chief is requested to post my comments on the WIC for the benefit of browsers.
A K Saxena (A retired civil servant) RTI Misuse of the Act The appellant sought information regarding grant in aid given to DAV College etc. and was offered the opportunity to inspect all the records. He instead filed second appeal before the Commission. Respondents stated that the appellant was in the habit of filing RTI applications and had filed 250 RTI applications to date through which he sought voluminous and old information. Usually, the appellant does not appear before the First Appellate Authority when his appeal comes live for receiving the information. They
submitted that the appellant who is a former contractual employee of D.A.V. College
has already been provided information under the present RTI application running
into over 200 pages and have so far provided him thousands of pages of Comments Cases
where the appellant is misusing the RTI Act to settle personal scores with his
former employer are not uncommon. This ruling provides a definitive way for summarily
dismissing those applications at the level of the PIO which causes disruption
in normal work and strain on Dr. Rajender K. Singla vs. O/o Director, Higher Education, Chandigarh in CIC/LS/C/2009/000770DS
