nowhere in Indian media.

POLITICS
This is History (519)
All methods, fair and foul, were adopted in war.
Is it possible without High Command ?
Is this kind of indiscipline possible in any BJP ruled state ? Infact,
one prominent BJP MLA Ghanshyam Tiwari has openly raised the banner
of revolt against Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje Scinia saying
"The CM is running the state like Ektantra (monocracy), not Loktantra
(democracy)". He has come in the media accusing Raje of betraying
the founding principles of the Jan Sangh and BJP. Now people ask "Is
BJP High Command behind Tiwari" ?
UP DGP and appointment ?
Who got S Javeed Ahmad posted as DGP of Uttar Pradesh ? Mulayam Singh
says he got him appointed as DGP and now former Uttarakhand Governor
Aziz Qureshi says he got him posted as UP DGP. Only Akhilesh Yadav knows
the truth.
Admission quota in KV
According to sources, if any body wants admission for their wards he
has to approach Minister in HRD. It is said that Minister Javdekar has
kept himself 1000 seats while both MoS have been given 100 seats each.
It is said that MoS are sore over less quota.
AIADMK to split ?
Tamil Nadu is likely to see a big political turmoil. Observers opined
that AIADMK is fighting for leadership and if Shashikala loses the fight
the party is bound to split.

W: But Sir last week when you were here you fought with me to change
Channel from Naagin to News...
Guest 2: Yes ...but now sick of Sassi and Paneer news.......Waiter change
the TV Channel ....put on some Entertainment Channel....jaldi...
Me: Down South they've made a joke of Democracy ....the MLAs should
be in their constituencies talking to their electorates to find out
who should they support ...after all its the electorate that's elected
them..not Sassi....whose allegedly locked them up in a Resort...
G1: And they are doing a drama that they are there on their own free
will...their Families dare not ask about their whereabouts ...this is
South India...you could even get thrashed for making a political comment
to a Taxi Driver ...why...is not as per his political ideology ...it's
so polarised ...
G2: Really damming Democracy ...UP mein bhi the same is taking place
...first the Family Spat drama ...and now via money power it's been
shown as if SP and Congress are winning ... I think BSP is better placed
than them....BJP looks to be way ahead....
Me: Public ko bewakoof samajhthe hai ....they say Modi's done nothing
... in the Car I just compiled a list of Micro level jobs done ....
results will show up soon on Macro level... 1. Jan Dhan Account - 26
crore ...2. MUDRA - 5.53 crore Indians(Aadhaar Based) got loan sanctioned

haawi ho gaya...
M: Big Private Hospitals have a SOP....when a Specialist is employed
..in the first few weeks he or she is summoned by HR and handed Keys
of a Merc/BMW/Audi...after about a Month he is again summoned by HR
and they inform him about his revenue targets ...entrap him in trappings
and perks...in MMS case...he got to stay in 7 RCR ......his Golden Cage!!
So maybe that's why he allegedly throttled his Honesty (proverbial)
and did not resign...kuch toh baat hai...
G1: Yes ....they add .... how could a honest person like him allow such
loot on his watch and under his very nose ....he should have resigned
......7 RCR was his Golden Cage and the trappings of PM's post got to
him!! Now quite a few even say ...muffat mein koun apna naam dooba detha....who
knows !!! I feel bad for him...I feel personally he did not make money...
G2: You spoke about Private Hospitals ...Government should reign in
the malpractices ...it's got really bad...appoint State Regulators for
Hospitals and Private Practice ...you get admitted for Hernia surgery
and when you leave they've done Hernia and later Bypass surgery too...and
you are down by 8 lacs..you go for a Sinus and they make you undergo
an MRI....Echo for your heart and even Endoscopy ...Bone Density Test
and even a Rectum Examination....
G1: (Reading from his mobile) ..You got to hear this..got it on WhatsApp...Kejri

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)

Quality Circle has brought a sea change in Japan
Quality Circle - it had brought a sea change in Japan. QC is one of
the methods in which employees participate in the development of the
organisation. I remember, after reading Dr. Edwards Deming book, I had
at my own level started this in my office where we had consulted our
own colleagues for solving our problems. If one was good in drafting,
he was consulted about it; if other was good in purchases or legal matters,
they were consulted to solve our problems. Thus, we utilized the talent
we ourselves had. I would recommend this mechanism should be used to
improve quality of the organisation in which we work. Congratulations
to DVC for thinking in this direction.

Grace and decorum eroded
The former Prime Minister is a universally respected personality despite
some notable scams having happened in his regime. Generally, action
used to be taken against the guilty, whenever any illegality and scam
was brought to govt's notice. He was not the maker or the beneficiary
of such scams, so his image remains clean and unsullied so far. He has
never hit anyone below the belt personally and has always shown grace
,decorum and restraint. He did not castigate Modi for the ill effects
of the demonetisation across the nation and the classes but was forthright
in his candid comments and opinion against the ill-conceived and badly
executed mammoth govt initiative. Vyapam has happened, Modi of cricket
world and Mallaya have hoodwinked laws and are in safe place abroad.
The regime has not gone beyond the usual oratory and rhetoric to cover
up the role of the regime in these. Scams may happen again but only
the guilty and the persons who have abdicated their authority in order
to cover them up, must be hauled up. Remarks against the former Prime
Minister do not auger well for the decorum and grace at the highest
level. One cannot be right by saying that the other was also wrong.
