PM needs to check non-political lobbying
There is no doubt that the two biggest achievements of the Modi Government are Curbing of Corruptions at the Highest Level and Increasing Efficiency at the Apex Level. But, unfortunately, it has miserably failed to check lobbying by the non-political people who are closed to the Government. As a result, efficiency has been compromised at many appointments and there is less visibility of the good work of the present Government. I request the PM to get the performance of the present CSI reviewed by an expert panel not connected to the lobby he belongs to and also examine how the corrupt officials have been protected during his tenure.

Judging humans is a tough call
Sivraman would do well to remember our own nobel laureate getting into unseemly controversy ! Sivraman may have some knowledge on financial matters but judging humans is a tough call. We at least have some yardstick of an exam .One or two humans can't be trusted to judge 800 from lakhs. Let us not mess up procedures with silly experiments.

Majority Civil Servants are corrupt
Majority of the Civil Servants are corrupt from the angle of misusing vehicles at the Government cost. I have obtained under RTI Act-2005 from the DOE information that the Ministers and Bureaucrats are entitled for only one Staff Car on the analogy that if he does not opt for the same he will get only one transport allowance not the fact that if is using three vehicles, then he will get three transport allowance. As per the existing GOI instructions any excess consumption has to be brought to the notice of the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas (MOP&G). MOP&G in response to an RTI application have informed that none of the Ministries/Departments have reported excess consumption during the lat 10 years. The situation is otherwise and people in the General Administration section of Ministries/Departments/Office have been forced to keep their lips closed. This is big scandal, a PIL will soon lodged and black sheeps will be brought to book.

How Ministry expects PESB to thrive?
PESB selected P K Prasad, GM of NSC, Delhi, as MD for NERAMAC Ltd in the year 2014 and since then its two years the Corporation is without head and the Ministry expects that the Corporation shall thrive. How? Red tapism and vested interest might be the prime cause for such delay and who shall now bear the pain of the genuine farmers problem of North East. I see no concern and pain is ever felt by Ministry and other personal for the farmers of NE which is in all ways suffering and shall suffer ever.
