There is a tendency to look back and not forward. Ultimately empires rest not so much on their strength as on the servility of the people over whom they dominate.

Modi's real politics only after Bihar elections
Insiders say that real politics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be seen by the countrymen only after Bihar poll results.

Will Pranab Mukherjee get second term ?

M: Votes cast...are you trying to chant up the votes cast in the sealed EVMs in favor of Mahaghathbandhan ..
L: Practically all Exit Polls say we are winning...
M: I think many Biharis are so scared of your Goondas that they would tell every any Surveyor they voted for Mahaghatbandhan.. lest they get thrashed!
L: Bakwaas ....humm jeet gaye (stands up and does a mock Bhangra)! Arre Bhagwat ji speaking on Reservation really did it for us!
M: Laloo ji upto education reservation is okay ..but somewhere merit has to be the criteria. .. say you are ill ...will you go to a Doctor who you know has become a Doctor courtesy reservation...or a Doctor who you know has become a Doctor on Merit?
L: Budbak... humm Laloo hai ... humm ko A1 medical attention milta hai ... the question you ask is not valid in my and my family's case!
M: Chalo you have not understood the question..but thank you you have in a way answered my question.... the gross misuse of Reservation will soon lead to Professionals on their Visiting Cards adding with Degrees...not from Reservation quota......why in this election Leaders of your coalition did not share the stage during rallies!
L: Humm logh spread out ho gaye ... Modi ji ko sambhaalna aasan kaam nahi hai ...
M: Yes it's not easy to counter Modi ....
but i hear Nitish did not want your past to cast shadow on him... and both of you did not want Rahul's bumbling image to dent your images!
L:Arre ..nahi ..nahi ..Rahul Baba tho bahut sweet boy hai ... my sons shared the stage with him!
M: And that may be the reason for their losing ....I hear Rahul has said in a rally ..that the helicopter Modi travels is made by Congress!

M: Chalo at least you accept it's very wrong ...
L: Achcha what do you feel who is winning..

L: Budbak... if I tell Rabdi to vote for a candidate it's an order .... this is Bihar....and I know my Vote Bank males are with me!!
M: This is where you are wrong ...a Mother/Wife ...would vote for whoever changes the conditions for her kids and husband... she knows what will happen if Goonda Raj returns! Youth too want development ..and so will not vote for you!
L: Humm Goonda hai kya ....humm LLB kiya hai ... kaam kaanta churri se kha saktha hoo.. Duniya ghuma hoo...humm please aur sorry bollna jaanta hoo... (just then a caretaker brings Laloo's Soothsaying cow)...

M: What else did you expect ..you said some Hindus eat Beef... and if your Cow is feeling so hurt imagine how hurt many Hindus would have felt..

Next President ?

Though it is too early to speculate as to who the next President of India - due in 2017 - would be, what has prompted to ponder over the likelihood of the candidature for the coveted office almost two years from now is the circulation of pages like - Lal Krishna Advani Next President of India - & - Mission 2017 Lal Krishna Adwani President of India – on facebook.

Given the fact that Advani’s aspirations to become PM always failed due to various circumstances in Indian politics which were unfavourable to him, the BJP may try to compensate that by offering him nomination for President of India from NDA, and grapevine has it that he has also been assured about the same after Narendra Modi’s (s)election for the post of Prime Minister.

Advani can be said to be one of the strongest candidate for the post, and perhaps the most likely one too not only because he is one of the founding Member of the BJP who is still active in Politics but also seniormost active politicians among big political leaders in India.

But honestly speaking, except Modi no one knows who the next President of India would be since one thing is certain that he would want to have some such person as President who would assist him and his acrimony with Advani is well known. .Who knows he may continue with the incumbent – Pranab Mukherjee !

However in case of any slip between the cup and the lips and incase Mukherjee - having an excellent rapport with the Prime Minister and others – is not repeated, the other probables could be the present Lok Sabha Speaker Mrs. Sumitra Mahajan and another BJP veteran Murli Manohar Joshi.

While Ms. Mahajan apart from having earned goodwill of all also has the advantage of being a female, Joshi is a Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh veteran known for his strong Hindu credentials.

Even as US President Barack Obama’s slip of the tongue – when he addressed PM Narendra Modi as ‘Mr President’ might have raised his aspiration to occupy the palatial Bhawan at Raisina Hill, but so far Modi’s turn for the coveted post is concerned, incase he wishes to be one, would come only after 2024.
During the first luncheon meeting with Mukherjee, in July 2014, after he took oath as Prime Minister, Modi reportedly evinced keen interest in seeing the Presidential palace and was thus taken around Rashtrapati Bhavan by the President's Secretary Omita Paul.
During the visit, Modi also spent some time in the 'Cabinet Room' of the Palace - , where the interim government headed by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru used to meet – and Ms Paul explained to him the historical significance of the place.

(It was this Cabinet Room where Lord Mountbatten had his last meeting with Nehru, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, B R Ambedkar, Sardar Baldev Singh and Shyama Prasad Mukherjee before moving to Shimla for signing of the final Partition plan.)

Modi later also went to Ashoka Hall and Durbar Hall, the museum and the library before attending the lunch with the President.

Pay parity
Non IAS officers, especially IRS officers do not deserve pay parity since they don't do any fruitful work and only subordinate officials do the work and these officers only seem to enjoy both promotions and perks.

Complicated educational loan
It is understood from banks like HDFC, SBI that to seek educational loan, following steps are necessary :

a) Educational loan not available on the strength of salary alone,
b) Surety by guarantor having FD or investment in same branch is necessary, or
c) mortgaging of property with bank,
d) maximum loan limit is Rs 10 lac in case of admission within India
e) It is interesting to note that same bank offers Housing Loan on the strength of salary.

Report on Uttarakhand CS reappointment
Your report on the Uttarakhand CS reappointment is incorrect and you must immediately correct it. The central government NEVER denied the extension request nor did it deny his reappointment. They were mum on the issue and did not accept or reject it. Per Supreme Court Rule; if not denied, accepted is even applicable here. Thus, please revise your wording to note that Center was mum on the issue they neither denied nor accepted the request for CS extension. Your publication is reputed please don't let such speculative journalism tarnish your image.
