Bureaucracy not in tune with the Modi government
The Indian Bureaucracy mainly controlled by IAS Officers is not in tune with the Modi Government. While the Modi Government has abolished different yardsticks for different officers belonging to different services, the IAS Officers has not overcome the practice of treating themselves as elite. Recently, an ISS Officer serving under MOS&PI has been issued recorded warning just for sending a notesheet to his counterpart IAS Officer. The IAS Officer desires that he should be treated as employer and the officers belonging to ISS even if senior to him should address him as Sir and be treated as employee. Unfortunately, General V.K. Singh has no time to see these details.

RTI Act
While RTI Act has lead to transparency in many fields, the Supreme Court and High Court have tried to shield themselves from the disclosure norms which are otherwise applicable on other organizations. The courts should permit disclosure of all documents under RTI rather than asking for applying for the documents under the respective court rules and procedure. This would lead to a new wave of transparency in the working of the courts.
Shivani Sharma

Misuse of RTI
RTI Act is being wrongly utilized by many applicants.Some are sending complaints and grievances with regard to product or service deficiency through RTI route. While some others are sending repeated requests without any change in then set of questions, and through online portal a particular RTI applicant has sent hundreds of same Request, which is rubbish.

Parliament canteen subsidy
There is a wrong notion under circulation on the Parliament canteen subsidy. We have around 800 MPs. Each session is between 20 and 25 days which works out to around 100 days a year. This is the period when most of the MPs attend parliament. How muchnfood these MPs can eat within this 100 days? In fact the bulk of the facilities of subsidy is availed by the staff of parliament in the name of these MPs and many of them even pack food for home. So dont blame someone blindly without knowing the facts.
