Many IAS officers to tender resignations
Tamil Nadu is no different from UP and Bihar. At the fall of hat, senior
IAS/IPS Officers are being transferred. Many bright IAS Officers are
eagerly awaiting to tender resignations and join World Bank/IMF Leasing
and Financial Companies at the earliest opportunity. What a sorry state
of affairs? The State which produced outstanding Officers like PC Alexander,
Anna George, N. Shankar, TN Seshan and Geetha Krishnan is bereft of
seasoned and committed bureaucrats.

Retirement Age
It will be politically inexpedient for the government to increase the
retirement age at this stage. The young generation is waiting in the
wing for jobs. A lot of fire is already brewing amongst them in the
current recession phase wherein there is no job in the private sector.
Grabbing of Government jobs will be taken very seriously by them and
they may come to streets and create mobocracy. At this stage when the
general elections are nearby the UPA Government will digging grave for
itself.

Mumbai is not property of Maharashtrians
The city of Mumbai is a cosmopolitan. It is not the jageer of the so
called Thackreys and Ranes. The city comprises of Hindi Films Industry,
a language spoken in the North India. Milk being supplied by the bhaiyas
of U.P. and Bihar. Also taxi drivers from the two aforementioned states.
Then the Central Government has set up headquarters of a number of its
orgnization in the city of Mumbai, who have invested a lot there. Not
to forget the Reserve Bank of India, Air India and Indian Oil Corporation.
You find a very few number of people working in the Civil Services.
A number of youth in Mumbai do not know about the existence of competitive
services magazine. They do not try to gain extra knowledge and when
they find a person of North, who has slogged and comes to Mumbai to
sit in competitive examination, they try to cause harm to them.
If one day the Government decides to shift all the headquarters to
New Delhi and also the Hindi Film Industry to some good place in the
North, then the city of Mumbai will bite dust and will have no revenues.
Mumbai belongs to all Indians and not solely for Maharashtrians.

Disrespecting Constitution of India
Uncle of Akhilesh Yadav while making a statement that 'the Centre should
call back all the IAS and IPS officers and that they will manage the
state by PCS Officials', has disrespected the Constitution of India,
especially with reference to the Article 309 to 312 under the Chapter
'Services under the Union and the States'. He should be booked under
the "Prevention of Insults to National Honours Act, 1971. I belong
to the State of Uttar Pradesh "Arrest me if you can", you
Talibanis.

Diverting facts
I had stopped encroaching on your space when unfortunately some people
converted the discussion on job reservations into caste debate. But
one particular person is still repeatedly persisting in painting non-SCs/STs
as a whole as anti-SC/STs which is not the fact. Now he is singling
out a political party whereas all political parties in India are same.
He has no word against such political parties which are openly preaching
and practicing casteism and communalism. They have no policy other than
this. He is now accusing your site of some sort of complicity! I am
not only sure but quite confident that this is not the view point of
vast majority among SCs/STs. It is the people who have thrived and want
to thrive on unjust reservation policy of the Government who hold this
view and at the slightest opportunity spit venom. For their personal
ends, they will never allow the casteism to go from this country which
is gradually happening.

Disclosure of IPR of government servants
Information regarding Immovable Property Return (IPR) of two officers
of MMTC was denied under Section 8(1)(j) of the RTI Act claiming
it to be personal information, the disclosure of which has no
relationship to any public activity or interest and disclosure
will cause unwarranted invasion of the privacy of the individual.
The Commission upheld the order of PIO holding that the appellant
has failed to establish any larger public interest, which warrants
the disclosure of such information.
Comments
The Division Bench of CIC in the case of Shri P.P. Rajeev v. Cochin
Port Trust in case No. CIC/AT/A/2008/00707 held that there cannot
be an omnibus order about the disclosure of all immovable assets
related information of employees of public authorities. The request
for their disclosure will have to be considered on a case by case
basis under the provisions of Sections 8(1)(j) and 11(1) of the
Act.
