DEBATE -1 Who will make the best Prime Minister in India ?

Only a person with his head and heart in right place should be PM - Neither politician nor academician nor industrialist. We have seen politicians who are liars of the first order. They fool us - one guy messes up in controlling a rail incident in his state and again messes up managing the even that followed. And now he wants to take credit that lesser number died from one community; and that community fails to understand the game. What a pity!! And we saw a professor. He never did justice as a professor otherwise a good teacher would never ditch his students. He governs through inaction. What a pity!!

DEBATE 2

Anyone (needless to say from any political party) who is a Lok Sabha MP and has the backing of minimum 300 MPs so that some solid policy decisions can be taken so as to uplift Indian Economy which is in a mess at this moment. He only is the most eligible/suitable Prime Minister of Inda.

Between Anarchy & Soft Marshal Law

Democracy has been reduced to anarchy of a kind and soft marshal law. Ordinary citizens are paying a very heavy price for the collapse of law & order, a dys-functional administration, a policy paralysis and vote harvesting at the cost of the life of the ordinary citizens. Violence here, murders there, rapes elsewhere, ragging somewhere else, riots everywhere- that is all that falls in to the share of the masses. Free movement anywhere in India is just a fiction. Regionalism makes it difficult. First riots are "between two communities", which are named after 3-4 years as in the case of Lucknow in 2010 revealed by the highest circulating English daily of Delhi; then it is made in to "ethnic clash"; what is likely to follow is "family feud", ending in two individuals. How definitions change and words substitute serious crimes for simple delinquencies. Looks like juvenile crimes (nay, juvenile offences only)!Spoil the show first, impose sec 144 and then call the Army- that seems to be meaning of government for all those who call themselves "sarkaar". Ya Allah!

Recent order regarding medical treatment ridiculous

The recent order regarding medical treatment abroad for AIS officers is ridiculous. On one hand Ministry of Health and Ministry of Tourism are trying to sell Health Tourism in India, on the other DoPT is pampering officers of AIS by issuing contradictory orders. It is an insult to the highly competent doctors in the country. What is needed is to empanel more hospitals/Doctors under CGHS scheme. Further why this discrimination against other central Government employees?

Inform properly about vacancies in Banks

This is with regard to the numerous vacancies existing in public sector banks, both at the clerical level as well as officers level. IBPS is conducting tests in October and January to fill vacancies at the clerical level as well as officer level. Before they take action to fill the available vacancies, they must inform the general public the number of vacancies that were available in the various categories when they last conducted the tests, the number of persons selected for appointment, the marks obtained by the last selected candidate in different categories etc. In case there are vacancies remaining, these should be filled from amongst the qualified candidates of the last selection and should not be carried forward to be filled up through new selection. This will help candidates of the earlier selection to know where they stand and whether they still stand a chance for appointment.
