What is the character of Narendra Modi ?(DEBATE1 )
Narendra Modi has all the qualities of a World Leader.
V M Nigam
Why sudden opposition to CSAT and English ?
Why is there a sudden opposition to CSAT and English after so many years?
It smells of political objective. There is nothing wrong with testing
aspiring candidate's knowledge in English language which is definitely
going to be their main language in a few years when they enter the service.
It is presumed that they will always know their own languages and so
there is no need to test them in their own languages. The entire protests
seem to be based on extremely narrow minded and parochial considerations
and will take the civil administration backwards. The agitation is strongly
objected to.

Non supply of the copy of the inquiry report
The appellant wanted to know the status of inquiry initiated against
him and sought copies of the feedbacks collected by the Inquiry
officer from the students, etc. claiming that such forms could
be his defending evidence. On first appeal, the First Appellate
Authority (FAA) directed to provide a copy of the inquiry report
as and when received from the concerned. The CIC noted that the
appellant was to be intimated about the conclusion of the inquiry
and dropping of charges against him and by the time the FAA advised
to provide a copy of the Inquiry Report, the inquiry was completed
and the charges against the appellant were dropped. As this fact
was not put up before the FAA, the CIC held that it amounts to
suppression of vital information and noncompliance of FAA orders.
The CIC observed that it is a very pathetic nonresponsive attitude
of the department against a teacher who is made to suffer without
any relief or information about the dropping of charges against
him and issued a cause notice to the PIO for imposing penalty.
The CIC also granted a token amount of Rs.1,000/ as compensation
to the appellant, for the loss suffered for the nonsupply of information.
Comments
The accused has a right to have a copy of the inquiry report,
whether it is favorable or not, upon completion of the inquiry.
He has this right both under the Right to Information Act, 2005
and under the principles of natural justice.
