UP headed by Muslim bureaucrats, Is it a coincidence
?
While Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Javed Usmani is a Muslim, the newly
appointed DGP Rizwan Ahmad also belongs to the minorities. Is it just
a coincidence that Uttar Pradesh is being headed by Muslim bureaucrats
or something more than what meets the eye ? This question is being asked
in view of the fact that several communal riots have occurred in UP
during Samajwadi Party rule and just before the LS polls Akhilesh Sarkar
seems to be in trouble due to recent Muzaffarnagar riots - specially
because of its alleged negligent attitude towards relief camps where
riots hits are camping. With the latest appointment, Akhilesh government
is looking engaged in damage control by handing over the command of
state to bureaucrats belonging to Muslim community.

Hope AAP does not meet same fate
People always looked for an alternative of the stereotypes. AGP, SP
and BSP in UP etc were such phenomena but where they are. Hope AAP does
not meet the same fate. Also hope that AAP goes to other states also
as people are waiting for such an alternative. Last UP election saw
one Dr. Ayub but he started taking like these parties only and you see
where he is. Fingers crossed.

All right thinking people should strengthen Kejriwal's hands
Arvind Kejriwal and his team require all the support and good whishes
but unfortunately cynics and critics are longing to see that he falters.
His ultimate success would be a bloodless revolution and hence all right
thinking people should strengthen his hands.

Vivek Rae is best choice !
AAP finding hard to find 'honest' bureaucrats - My suggestion: Vivek
Rae, Petroleum Secretary (Retiring in Feb '14) is a well known upright
officer, bachelor, philosopher and 'No-Yes Man' to politicians. He will
be a best choice to become an advisor to AK subject to Rae's willingness.

Should the 25% account holder be provided the bank account
details?
The appellant's request for the details of a bank account was
denied by the PIO referring to the appellant as the 'third party'.
The appellant claimed that the denial was not correct as he had
sought information regarding an entity in which he is a 25% share
holder and a director. The appellant sought information about
certain balance sheet, insurance charges, cash credit limits and
information about the alleged misappropriation. The respondent
bank stated that the bank had denied the information to the appellant
as it seems that there is a family dispute and that the appellant
is a brother of the person who is running the entity. The respondent
stated that they have no intention to withhold any information,
but are awaiting an authority letter from the company in favour
of the appellant to provide the information. The CIC directed
the respondent to provide the information to the appellant within
30 days on the condition of receipt of the requisite letter of
authority.
Comments
The details of bank account are personal information and are
held by the bank in fiduciary capacity. Even a 25 % account holder
is not eligible to get the information unless approved by the
account holder.
