NPAs needs to be sorted out...

Bhula nahi dena MMS ji bhula nahi dena!
Kingfisher ke maamle mein aap ka kehna!

We will bail out this troubled Airline!
Today this statement would make you whine!

Many say Mallya was unfit to run an Airline!
To save him why we're to ready to sign on dotted line!

How can King of Good Times run a Budget Airline!
Seems to throw away money 24x7 he does pine!

Allegedly Banks bent backwards for him!
Rest assured Banks were not dim!

On one side was Mallya and on the other side,
Are the Helpers who today hide!

Netas and Bank Officials too!
For love and fresh air all this they did not do!

It's rumored last week Mallya flew out!
Really it's high time this matter is sorted out!

He has money for IPL and Formula One!
But for his employees ....none!!

A student defaulted on his fee !
And what the school did ...please see!

On his answer sheet 'defaulter' was stamped!
And in India with Billions Defaulters have decamped!

NPA loot must be investigated and guilty booked!
To loot some people are really hooked!

Indians are still guffawing since Rahul said!
That EPF tax was withdrawn because he saw red!

Jaitley took his class in Rajya Sabha!
Congis must have lamented Hai Oh Rabha (Oh God)!

"Our Baba opens his mouth and foot lands into it"!
"Abh toh like a glove his foot and mouth do fit"!

And I am sure if in RS he orders his minions,
Vote for GST and no more expressing opinions!

BJP would give him credit for it!
Still in our eyes on the spoilers bench he would sit!

Public discourse sinks to a new low

Public discourse has sunk to a new low where the president of JNU, one small university in the country ,can call the PM names and be applauded by his audience, all adult literate people , as also other so called intellectuals. Do they realize that the democracy they talk of upholding, is the one which has elected the PM and 281 others to run this country for five years. They are elected by 1.25 billion people not by a few thousand students. Juxtaposing a student union leader against the PM is also shameful , and the media needs to refrain from making him a hero overnight , despite his unacceptable conduct.

Destruction of a fragile ecosystem on the bank of Yumna

During my daily commute from Noida to Delhi I watched with dismay the destruction of a fragile ecosystem on the bank of Yumna by Art of Living Foundation. It is as if an army of marauders have raided this place to cause havoc. The bushes, the wild growth under grown shrubbery and kikar trees were first burnt in violation of the orders of National Green Tribunal and the whole area was bulldozed to flatten it. The bulldozing crushed standing crops of vegetables of poor farmers whose rozi-roti comes out of the few fields they tend in Yamuna plain. After levelling acres of land(more than 150 acres) a massive stage has been erected, number of tents have come up right on the river bank. More vegetation has been destroyed to build roads for the vehicles to enter the avenue. This Cultural Festival being organized by AOL foundation on March 11,12and 13 have wrought a permanent damage to the environment. Saddest part is the same is associated with one of our most revered guru Sri Sri Ravishankar.When a few concerned citizens and environment activists went to Green Tribunal, one hoped that NGT would stop this mega event expected to be attended by 35 lakhs people. But NGT is still holding hearings. It is too late now. They should at least order AOL to restore the natural habitat by planting trees and bushes as also restoring the fields of poor farmers after the event. Our sagacious President has done the right thing by deciding not to be associated with the event on the final day as earlier agreed to by him. The Prime minister should also stay away from the inaugural function .It is an event which has caused massive damage and disturbed hundreds of birds by destroying their habitat during the roosting season.

Muzaffarnagar riots : Judicial suppression of facts "

The findings of one-man inquiry commission headed by Justice Vishnu Sahai, are simple half-truths. Blaming local intelligence, DM, SP and Media exaggeration for the riots (2013) that left 60 persons dead and 60,000 homeless does not suffice. Is giving clean chits to the ruling political dispensation and the radicalized fringe groups of both communities, not a travesty of Justice? Not a word of condemnation for UP, CM for his supreme inactivity and insensitivity during the riots. Looks, there is a secret deal between the BJP and SP. The bureaucracy, as always, becomes the scapegoat.

Pending cases in Courts

Even if the courts are closed , it doesn't matter for common man. Pending cases will also be the same even if the courts are having full strength of Judge. It is a fact .

A K Reddy

IRTS officers are more knowledgeable

Regarding comments against the appointment of IRTS officer as MD, CRIS, first of all he should realize that CRIS has nothing to do with Indian Telecom Service. CRIS relates to e-Governance .Secondly, the IRTS officer who have worked in the Southern and Eastern Railways(Coal, Ore, Steel & Cement belts) on the country get so much of all round experience, which the ITS can never get. Even IAS of Ministries are afraid of the knowledge which these IRTS officers have acquired and posted in New Delhi in Railway Board.
