Why govt. employees eagerly await Pay Commission's report?
In the power gallery, rumour is that central employees are eagerly awaiting 7th Pay Commission's report. As sources say that large number of employees are likely to seek VRS after the implementation of 7th Pay Commission report. Monotonous atmosphere and lack of promotion in service is said to be reason behind this.

Ghotalo ke din beete re bhaiya...
Petrol sasta ..Desh nahi raha sasta,
Abh sabz baago mein koyi nahi fusta/
Galli galli desh nahi bikkta...Chori abh firr se gaali hai,
Abh Choro ke mooh pe nahi rahi laali hai/
Gou Mata abh katthi nahi .. gowshaale aur kholo,
Ma ko koyi khatthaa hai kya bollo/
Kehte theh baarish dagaa dehgi..khaane ke honge laale,
Nekk niyat waalo ko Rabh sambhaale/
Niyaat saaf waale aa gaye.. khush kismeti leh aaye,
Abh firr se Kauwa gandh aur Hans moti khaaye/
Ganga hogi saaf ... firr se shudhta aaye gi,
Sukh aur simridhi laye gi/
Ghotale waale gaye...unn ki abh hai koshish,
Apne kukarmo pe kaise karre laanchano ki poshish/
Soch abh Desh ke liye hai...chori ki soch nahi,
Niyat saaf toh kaam raas kissi ne yeh baat sach kahee/

Streamlining CAT working welcome

There is all round appreciation of recent steps taken by Raafat Alam Sahib in streamlining working of Central Administrative Tribunal. So many readers of this forum had complained about large number of contempt petitions pending. Now the Chairman has distributed cases subject wise. Advantages are many in this arrangement. Judges will not be distracted with different subject coming up. with just similar type cases of say MACP judge can go with the flow and all rules of MACP will be in his mind. He will decide cases quickly. If all subjects deal by one Judge it is taxing, very tiresome. Chairman has taken all old cases and is clearing backlog. This is good sign. Now CAT will become more efficient. Cases can be disposed off faster. Unnecessary adjournments are becoming a routine nowadays which must end.

Anonymous complaints

I agree with Suresh. Anonymous complaints are the only solution for ending corruption and fraud. Whistle blower policy is not foolproof. Caucus group moles are there in vigilance organisations. Things get leaked and harassment and threats to life is the order of the day. Vigilance units must be brought under control of CVC with reshuffling of employees. Anonymous complaints will not hamper honest, sincere persons. CVC should encourage this system in government and PSU's. It will help in tracking the real corrupt persons and fraudsters.

End misuse of facilities by govt. officials

Prime Minister in his independence day speech talked a lot about his achievement during the last one year and main amongst them being corruption, which he wants to eliminate from the country. He is also advised to eliminate misuse of perks & facilities by the senior government officials and ministers either from the main Ministry or from the Public Sector Undertakings.

Govt. wake up

Proven true in all cases be it postings or empanelments. Unfortunately this Government if fails there is no alternative in horizon so GoI please wake up how you are taken for a ride by the same old gang.

Jaggu

Nothing much untoward

OP Sharma's views (WIC dt August 19) on sexual harassment of a lady IAS officer portrays his gender insensitive mindset. He has probably been oppressed by his bosses. As a serving lady officer of UP cadre, I would request the Editor, not to send wrong signals by publishing such immature post.

Easy to spend retired life

During the 41 years 9 months service in the Government of India, I had never taken a medical leave. The only medical problem I ever had, was for toothache during these years. It is now more than one year since I retired from service. During the last one year, I was hospitalized twice, I had to get physiotherapy for more than a month, had ayurvedic treatment for over a month - it was just because I had gone out of my routine schedule which I had before my retirement. I now have developed high BP, lungs problem, joint pain, the bone of my foot has increased for which I am now not able to walk straight, trigger finger, oxygen level gone down below normal, stiff left hand (right now it is only in the morning), increased weight, etc. I have all along been a brisk walker in my life. I spend time reading newspapers, go for walk (now I have to stop it), read books, play games on computer, go out of Delhi with friends, go to CSOI on regular basis, and watch TV as has been suggested by NICK (whispers 19 Aug 2015). Despite these activities, I have developed many medical problems.In my post dated 13 August 2015 (Workshop on how to spend retired life), I had suggested for consideration of the Pay Commission to consider preparing the Government servants at least five years before their retirement on how to spend the retired life. Alternatively, I had also suggested that the services of those Government servants who are medically fit, should be utilized appropriately by Government.

I would reiterate that Pay Commission should seriously consider preparing the Government servants for their retired life.
