POLITICS

This is History (230)
He was known as the "incorruptible". But simple as he was in his life, he was inordinately self-centred.

Congress Mukta Bharat !
There is a resolution of the BJP to have "Congress Mukta Bharat ".And see first Arunachal Pradesh and now Uttarakhand and next is Himachal Pradesh.

Is it a revolt against Rahul?
First Arunachal Pradesh then Uttarakhand. At both the places Congress MLAs raised the banner of revolt against their own Chief Ministers. Their accusations were same that despite proof the High Command continuously ignored their demands. If highly placed sources are to be believed, this shows the growing resentment within the party against Rahul Gandhi. One group of party is not ready to accept Rahul as boss.

Loss of loss incurring CPSEs stand at Rs.27, 360 cr
Loss of loss incurring CPSEs stood at Rs.27, 360 crore in 2014-15 compared to Rs 21, 341 crore in 2013-14 showing a increase in loss by 28.20 %.

High Command mein woh baat nahi rahi...

State elections season kicks in!
Till UP elections there will be a din!!

For Gandhis stakes are very high!
What if Congress is left high and dry!

For Congress crucial elections!
And it will stumble as per projections!

For sure then rumblings will kick start!
Hinting when is Rahul going to depart!

Khullam khulla they'll take him on!
So what if he is Sonia's son.

Even today in private Congis say!!!
Chupp how long can we stay!

Madam is blinded by love for her son!
They use Female Dritrashtar pun!

Their Poll Advisor will come to know!
You can't make a fused bulb glow!

Mehbooba fell in line perforce!
BJP called her bluff as per a source!

BJP Played along to a point!
But her conditions started to disappoint!

She thought craving for power!
Would ensure relations don't sour!

But after a point BJP blanked her out!
And she was sorted out!

It's all because BJP thinks,
Power at any cost stinks!!

Does Kejri need LG's go ahead!
To visit house of someone whose dead!

A Dentist was murdered by a mob!
Had he been a Muslim Kejri would run to sob!

Remember how he ran to Dadri to sob!
Now it's... giving go ahead to cry is LG's job!

BJP is being extra cautious!
Congress is being extra obnoxious!

On Congress's Uttrakhand pangaa!
Within Congress there was a dangaa!

Now Congress trying to pass off blame!
Fact..Gandhi name no longer does tame!

And so they cannot put house in order!
Within the house a self created border!

In the old days Madam would snap her fingers!
And rebels would turn into 'Psalm' singers!

"All things bright and beautiful Madam made them all"!
"We are at Madam beck and call"!!

Flash... Uttrakhand put under President's Rule!!
Followed to the T the rule!

Government should have fallen on 18th itself!
To get MLAs back Rawat was using power and pelf! !!\

"Modi has no parallel"
-Prime Minister Narendra Modi who till a little less than two years ago was beloved of the majority might be losing charm in the opinion of some people but the question is that does any one else including his opponents - Rahul, Mulayam or Lalu - have any charm ?
This question came up in the wake of response of the surfers of whispersinthecorridors.com who were asked - "Is PM Narendra Modi losing his charm ? Is he a changed man ?" While some replied in the affirmative, majority did not agree and some of them even asked who else among Indian politicians can stand parallel to him and suggested 'to see the things in the right perspective'.

Checking terrorism exported to India from Pakistan imperative
The Jehadi attacks in Europe is because of American imperialism in the Middle East and racial discrimination against Arabs and Asians on a daily basis in every walk of life in Europe. Indian tourists to the West will confirm that. In a way they are getting what they asked for. Trump , the future President of America wants Americans out of body bags. He wants to stuff them with Europeans. This means that USA will follow an isolationist foreign policy and leave Europe to face the Jehadis alone. Europe is porous and the jehadis will have a field day. There are in all about 50 million Muslims in the West, some 17 million in America and some 30 million in Europe. Given the increasing Islamophobia and unemployment among young Muslims in the West and racism against coloured immigrants, the number of the radicalised Muslims will only increase. They don't have to travel to the Middle East for training any more. They can have it all in Europe. ISIS has already declared Rome the future capital of the Islamic Caliphate. It will be in India's interest not to take sides in this burgeoning conflict. The Modi government has taken the right step in calling a World Sufi Conference and encouraging moderation and tolerance. India should isolate the Wahabi brand of extreme Sunni Islam in India in its own interest and work towards the break up of Pakistan into 4 independent republics , all weak and all dependent on Indian aid. This would be the best solution to the menace of terrorism exported to India from Pakistan.

Justice Rafat Alam - a gentleman
Justice Rafat Alam will be leaving Central Administrative Tribunal, Principal Bench. He will be remembered as a Gentleman Judge, soft hearted person and honest to the core who brought transparency in working of Tribunal. He has been regularly rotating the Benches and made best efforts to ensure fellow Judges give quality Judgements. However he was too lenient in several things. Now it is learnt Justice Permod Kohli, retired Chief Justice of Sikkim High Court, will be taking over as Chairman in the Central Administrative Tribunal. Litigants have great expectations from him and it is hoped he will carry forward the good work started by Justice Rafat Alam. The first daunting task before Justice Permod Kohli is to end the nexus between Judges and Lawyers. Uncle Judge syndrome must end among Judicial Members. Also he should bring to end cadre loyalty syndrome amongst Administrative Judges. The quality of Judgements needs to be improved and well researched. At present 85% cases decided by CAT are being challenged before High Court. Therefore if Judgements are sound appeals will be less and burden on High Courts can be reduced. The Judges especially Administrative Members should be rotated at least once in the middle of their fixed tenure. Also they should not be posted in the Cadre State from where they retired or their home state. Such steps will bring improve quality of judgement and destroy vested interests.
Sanjay Sengupta

Justice Permod Kohli will be an asset
Justice Permod Kohli Retired Chief Justice of Sikkim High Court has been appointed Chairman of CAT for a period of 5 years. Justice Permod Kohli is an intelligent person and as Judge of The Punjab & Haryana High Court, he has delivered so many judgments which have been land mark. As Chairman of CAT he will be an asset with the Tribunal and will be helpful to streamline the system.
