POLITICS

This is History (143)

Raja Man Singh of Jaipur was one of Akbar's best generals.

Why Delhi CM is disturbed?

Political temperature is high between center and Delhi Govt over CBI raids but if sources are to be believed main reason behind whole episode is that except Rajendra Prasad, .maximum bureaucrats are against CM. It is almost certain that new secretary to CM won't be of his choice. In the present set of bureaucracy, Prasad is the only bureaucrat who is very close and confident to CM. This is said to be main reason behind all drama.

'Andhar waalo' ki views

On the GT road on the way back from Shimla to Delhi ... I get a flat ...stop at a Dhaba which has a tyre repair shop next door ...a Punjab Police Gypsy which is ferrying some prisoners and has had a flat, stops too.... the 3 prisoners with 2 Cops come and sit on the table next to mine ...in the Dhaba ..

P1: (translated from Punjabi for convenience ) Lo jee I'll read the newspaper for time pass <picks up Hindi newspaper lying on the table> .... oye kamaal ho gaya ... at a rally Captain (Amrinder) has sworn on a Gutka (Sacred Book of Sikh daily prayers) that he will deliver on his promises ....
P2: Seems he's realized after his last stint Public no longer takes him for his word ...
P3: In my village after his stint as CM they used to say ...eh Raja Raja nahi nikalyaa..

P1: Eh lo jee ...Dilli da CM....is abusing PM.... starting doing this after a CBI raid on his man .... paper says he says that PM trying to threaten him ...
P2: Oye he has habit of taking pangas.... arre this toh is normal by Netas ....after a raid they will say it's a political conspiracy ...their defence is offence ...
P3: Tummy upset and they say it's a political conspiracy ...

P1: Arre a Autowallah had slapped Kejriwal before he became CM ....Netas are so superstitious I thought after Kejri became CM they would flock to this Autowallah and request to be slapped so that they too can become CMs... Thapadwallah Baba...seems Kejriwal's swollen face deterred them... pucca Autowallah had a very heavy hand ....
P2: Read the article with Rahul's photo ...
P1: He is going on a Padyatra in Assam....
P3: Four years back when I was fighting my case in Courts he was undertaking Padyatras.... seems in his naseeb there are only padyatras.... he is perpetual PM... whichever Party is in power..Padyatra Mantri....

P1: He too is threatening Modi .... seems some case regarding thousands of crores Property ...
P3: I've seen him shouting angrily on TV ... seems any time he could break into laughter ....his Mom has used very derogatory language for Modi in the past ... you know that old wise fellow who is in Barrack No 4.... he says the way Modi is being targeted means he is on the right track...

P1: They say it's a open shut case and that is why Congress is not allowing Parliament to function...
P3: Buss same excuse we are being targeted ... standard excuse of Netas ....
Oye why is P2 so quite .... kee hoya (what happened)...
P2: Buss in a few months I am going to be released ... thieving is my profession ...but now I am thinking .... if I indulge in big time thievery then I get the feeling I will not face the music as I do for petty thefts....
One of the Cops: Lo jee ... ya teh Neta banne ga ya Baba (religious fraud)....
Second Cop: Oye saadha dhiyaan rakhi (remember to take care of us)...

Is this democracy?

That one can say anything abusive, unethical, discourteous and derogatory even for the elected head of the Government. Kejriwal's outburst against the Prime Minister(Whether CBI's raids at his office were justified or not is another matter)shows to what low level the politics in this country has gone down. Every tool in the armoury, even lies, is resorted to get back or remain in power. The Congress Vice president and the PM- aspirant does not hesitate in throwing up indecent barbs and false stories against the Prime minister and the ruling party. Did he not tell a lie the other day that he was debarred from entering a particular temple in Assam where he was visiting when the truth was that the temple authorities were waiting for him and he never came that day. It is a matter of shame to call these men of straw as our leaders. How can we expect good governance from such people who lack even basic decency in their words and deeds?

Loaning regime needs over-hauling

There are reports that RBI and the PMO are aware of 17lac and fifty thousand crores frauds in the Indian banks. This alarming revelation of financial misappropriation and leakage, along with about 2.60 lac crores of non- performing assets, should prompt the Indian financial wizards to give this scam the same priority and importance as the the task of bringing back black money from foreign countries. Can scams of such magnitude take place without the complicity of black sheep in the higher echelons of banking hierarchy and that too without price? It is just not possible. Instead of shedding tears over the split milk, the government must make consistent efforts to recover the amount, punish the guilty and devise fool-proof system to prevent recurrence of such frauds with public money. It is also the time the government should find out whether the banks are providing small loans to the ordinary citizens without putting innumerable hardships in their way. One of my close relatives wanted a small loan from the HDFC Bank Amritsar. He had all the guarantees and sureties and the property to qualify for the loan .The person was very honest and gave no hint of parting with some money as a mark of gratitude for the prospective loan. He was called in the bank for ten times ,his legal papers were also prepared by charging cash of Rs 3000.But after 4 months ,he was told that he did not qualify for the loan. One more principled relative had the similar experience.I also know many people ,who get bank loans as comfortably as they get news-paper,but always as a business deal and sharing some amount of loan with the unscruplous bank employees privately. Loaning regime needs drastic over-hauling.

Peculiarity in fixing seniority in IRS

There is a peculiarity in fixing seniority in IRS that though promotee and direct quota is 1:1 when DRs of a batch are less and PRs are more the last PR onwards are bunched and same is the case if DRs are more and PRs are less. But when it comes to promotion in an year where PRs are more the promotion is given upto last DR leaving the rest of the bunched PRs with next batch. But when DRs are more and PRs are less promotions are given upto the last DR including the bunched DRs. In my opinion it is against natural justice. Is it prevalent in any Service.
