Fan versus Worshipers
India is stirred and Pakistan shaken!!
Chalo at last India did awaken!!
So shaken that at Wagah Pakis resorted to stone throwing!!
More and more desperate Pakis are growing!!
Then you have Mush threatening of a Nuclear reply!!
Brains toh Mush ne kabhi nahi kee hai apply!!
Had he applied his brains Kargil would not have taken place!!
In the end Pakistan was shown it's place!!
They ran away leaving their fallen soldiers behind!!
Literally to the Enemy (India) the burial was assigned!!
Yes our Forces have to be on extra alert!
India ko Pakis desperately want to hurt!!
They will try to attack our Army Bases!!
A extra vigilant phase our Army faces!!
Quite a few terrorists are already here!!
Yes from Pak them the Handlers do steer!!
They don't have any qualms of attacking civilians too!!
In their desperation anything they can do!!
But for India's maturity there would have been war by now!!
But now India has set a line and said 'iss ke paar matt jao'!
Rumours that Hafeez The Rat Sayeed has had a heart attack!!
Must have been worried after India's surgical attack!!!
But I'd prefer he meets his end with a bullet from an Indian's gun!!
Choohe bhaag aur chupp sakthe hai parr bachch nahi sakthe goes the pun!!
Fans of Modi have a mind of their own!!
Whereas Sonia's Worshipers ..as her cutlery they are known!!
They don't have the guts to criticise her when she blunders!!
She's the Madaari and her Worshipers are her Bunders!!
Whereas Modi's fans do criticise when they disagree with him!!
On SM you get to see this and BJP doesn't take it as dim!!
In fact the inputs from SM are considered too!!
This only a open minded Leader would do!!
Confucius says...Fans with brains and spines are a big plus!!
On the other hand see Worshipers how on Rahul Flop Gandhi they fuss!!

What kind of debate is this ?
Good write ups, articles, editorials promptly enhances the readership
of the concerned newspaper, magazine including internet site like whispers.
I find some people contribute intellectually and regularly to your magazine/site
selflessly inter alia enlightening the masses on varied topics of general
interest. However on certain days, I find the space provided under Forum
- for the said purpose is blacked out with irrelevant notes of no interest
and thus make the readers form opinion about the site contrary to its
interests. Topics of Debate whenever initiated in house by editor etc.
must be thought provoking and magnanimous to attract the desired contribution
of good writers. For example the topic chosen - who is the best attired
politician - is absolutely irrelevant kind of a topic for the people
of substance and that is why I hardly find any thought provoking process
. That us why the replies are peculiarly not even half liner. Better
label it as self styled quiz wherein you pose question with answers
as and when received to be matched with pre determined solution. That
is why your topic has failed to enunciate interest in the masses. What
answers are being received - Simirti Rani, Modi etc. as the best attired
personalities are just jokes. What kind of debate is this ?
I suggest you honour some of your good writers by organizing event
may be annually and keep a watch on their performance before announcing
their names. Such functions shall imbibe glory to your efforts. This
does not cost much but will have great impact . No one is interested
in money.
O P Sharma
It is Modiwaad
Modi ki sharafat aur Sharief ki adawat led to the slight view of what
Modiwaad is. Well done. Still better that the big five are stunned to
see the two countries take action ignoring their hegemony or diktats.
American presidential hopeful Hillary still lives in the conventional
frame of US foreign policy without acknowledging the need to look at
the new world differently. Terrorism today is the biggest threat for
America, which Clinton rightly put as fear/threat if nukes come in possession
of terrorists on a coup in Pakistan. Full democracy in Pakistan is not
in the interests of America. They want to keep a prime minister under
the authority of a military General ! The big 5 don't want genuine democracy
in Pakistan because that would eliminate their area of influence drastically
and change this part of the world. Majboori ka naam Mahatma Gandhi is
no more the maxim but Gandhi-II or Modiwaad. Kautilyaye prataa smarnam!

Raise issue of Child Care Leave !
Need to raise the issue of Child Care Leave for Women employees. I feel
it is time to do a rethinking and go back on the recommendations of
the commission of letting women employee first exhausting their EL and
then seeking CCL. Today everybody wants to avail of this leave. No where
in world such luxury exists.

Multiple RTI Applications seeking huge information
The applicant sought huge information pertaining to Income Tax
offices. He also wanted to know the basis of conducting survey
and search and the specific steps taken to stop tax evasion during
the financial year 2013-14 etc. The PIO submitted that the appellant
has filed as many as 30 appeals before the Central Information
Commission seeking all and sundry information and despite heavy
pressure they have made strenuous efforts to provide the information.
He further stated that much of the information sought by the appellant
is in the public domain and can be accessed by visiting the department's
website www.incometaxindia.in. The appellant stated that he had
lodged a TEP against a medical store in early 2015 and wants to
know what action has been taken by the department. He further
stated that he wants a copy of the scheme for payment of award
to informants. He also requested for a note explaining the method
adopted by the Income Tax Department for assessment and scrutiny.
The PIO stated that he will supply the information as requested
above by the appellant. The CIC observed that once a certain information
is placed in the public domain accessible to the citizens either
freely, or on payment of a predetermined price, that information
cannot be said to be 'held' or 'under the control of' the public
authority and, thus would cease to be an information accessible
under the RTI Act. The Commission hoped the appellant will take
a careful note of the above judicial observations and refrain
from filing frivolous RTI applications in future.
Comments
Whenever one is seeking information under the RTI Act, the RTI
Application should be focused and specific. Asking for voluminous
information through multiple applications may lead to a charge
of abuse of the process of law.
