This is History (517)
All methods , fair and foul , were adopted for this propaganda work.
Obama and Rajan holidaying in US
While former US President Barak Obama is holidaying these days, ex-RBI
Governor Raghuram Rajan is also back in US spending time cycling and
reading.
Greatest mistake of Cong that brought BJP to power
Now people say making Dr. Manmohan Singh Prime Minister, that too for
two consecutive terms, is the greatest mistake of the congress that
brought BJP to power.
Now Perturbing Assets...
Corporates want reduction in the Interest Rate!!!
But first there should be on NPAs a debate!!
They'd also like Bank Deposits to become unattractive!!
So that Shares and Mutual Funds become attractive!!
Via these it's money that's interest free!!
They literally have all five fingers in ghee!!
Once the Bank Depositers enter Stocks!!
Literally by the flocks!!
The Share prices would rise!!!
And to guess who will benefit there's no prize!!
Share Issues would abound !!!
In Papers less news and more Share Offer Ads would be found!!
They want reduction in Corporate Tax too!!
If not given Markets throw tantrums to boo!!
Mallya is now a sample case in the NPA fight!!!
The Bullet will the Government bite!!
Getting him back is not that difficult if there is intent!!
If into overdrive the Government went!!
In worst case if they cannot get him get his moolah!!
The law is not that 'loola' (handicapped)!
Also in whose stints did NPAs rise!!!
Expose Congress's lies!!
The Government funding of elections is unrealistic !!!
Only if we become 100% cashless it can be realistic!!
Just make Funding of Political Parties 100% transparent!!
What all goes on is pretty apparent!!
Now it'll be 2000x10 donors to do the needful!!
Out of the hat donors Parties will pull!!
But no doubt getting it down to 2000 needed guts!!!
Shocked some Netas are lamenting has Modi gone nuts!!
This is holy ground and no one has meddles with it!!!
Not even in wit!!!
The Presstitute lot are hell bent!!
That in UP to second or third place BJP's sent!!!
Rumors abound money flowing like H2O!!!
A major chunk to the fixers in the Fixing Media does go!!
Now the new yarn is UPites believe Aki's sob story!!!
Public is not that gullible I'm sorry!!
You think they can forget the Gunda Raaj!!!
On Development even Rabdi ko aaye gi laaj!!
This young blood is a sham!!
Their ages 'youth plank' ko karte damn!!!
Though Rahul is in the Youth category for life!!
This Youth will in due course get a 45+ wife!!
Congis crying about Modi's raincoat comment!!
Would they let us know by Rubbish Ordinance what RaGa meant!!
He even said...tear it !!!
Why then twiddling its thumbs Congress did sit!!!
The Family insulted him when it suited them!!!
More so after to Rahul taking over midway MMS just said 'Ahem'!!
In Chennai it's getting stupider every day!!!
Now the 'jailed' MLAs can use Mobiles some say!!
But while using they have to keep it on Speaker mode!!
And cannot use any code!!
The Menus in their Rooms have no Paneer Dish!!
If they request for a Paneer Dish Room Service will say 'Go fish'!!
This is what's wrong with our Democracy!!
High Command Autocracy!!
Pharma Stocks Markets will continue to pound!!
Till a medicine for Kejri is not found!!
His Sugar and allergy to the word .....no!!
Say No and ballistic he does go!!
He just blasted EC for not falling in line!!
Some would say schizophrenia ka hai yeh sign!!

DEBATE
How do you see the two most powerful leaders of
the World - Donald Trump and Narendra Modi ?
Some people see Donald Trump as Narendra Modi
of the USA. Like Modi in 2014, they say, Trump touched the raw nerve
of the US citizens in 2016 to win a decisive victory.
If Modi, with his magnetic electoral campaign,
won an absolute majority for his party for the first time in 2014, Trump
also staged a spectacular campaign to win the top job for himself.
How do you (surfers of whispersinthecorridors.com)
see the two most powerful leaders of the World ?

DEBATE (1)
Modi is fast but Trump is superfast.
Anju Mahapatra
Where is the grief for the 'close friend' ?
A strange drama is being enacted in Tamil Nadu. The lady seems to be
in a hurry to grab power. Where is the grief for the 'close friend'
who died after unexplained illness in the hospital for more than two
months with no one having access to her but this friend. I was in Chennai
in the last week of Jan and the city was still buzzing with rumours
about how she landed up in hospital and what happened prior to her hospitalization
suggesting some conspiracy. Some believe that the mafia named after
Sasikala's native place has been working on the plan for a long time.
Could be true .Otherwise what explains the support of majority of MLAs
and MPs of AAIDMK who are wanting her to become CM so soon after Jaylalitha's
death. She was handed over the party first and now chosen to take over
the Government. Because many of these worthies got the tickets for election
on her recommendation. Pity that an intelligent person like Jaylalitha
became captive of this mafia who took over her household and security.
It seems she was totally in the grip of this lady whose minions, so
do the people in Chennai say, ran her house and were looking after her.
If all this is true, it is really tragic that they succeeded in their
plan, long-term it may be.
Aarti Khosla
Better to have some system
I totally agree with views regarding announcement of election results
of Goa and Punjab. Almost three months, no work has been done by these
two State Govts. and administration has paralysed. It is better to have
some system to announce elections and also conduct elections simultaneously.
Jago bhai jago.

DATE WITH RTI

Filing of RTI Application to know the fate of earlier application
An application was under the RTI Act seeking information regarding
action taken on an earlier RTI application and first appeal filed
by the Complainant. A reply was sent to him on but the Complainant
stated that he did not receive this reply. The Respondents volunteered
to send another copy to him. While noting that no further action
is due on this RTI application, the CIC observed that the right
course of action for an RTI applicant, in the event of the PIO
not responding to his RTI application, is to file an appeal to
the First Appellate Authority and thereafter, if necessary, an
appeal / complaint to the Commission. Instead, the Complainant
took upon himself to enquire into the delay on the part of the
Respondents in responding to his earlier RTI application by filing
yet another RTI application. Filing of such applications is avoidable
because the RTI Act provides for appeals / complaint process in
the event of unsatisfactory action by Respondents on an RTI application.
Such applications needlessly clog the system.
Comments
RTI act is a self contained act which provides for the mechanism
to deal with cases where replies have not been received. An applicant
should use the modalities provided under the Act which can provide
him the best results.
