Lost Sheep....
Sidhu ji Sidhu ji,
Matt banao humaara budhu ji!!
Bundle of contradictions ho aap ji!!
Aap ko Cabinet mein leh ke kiya Amrinder ne paap ji!!
And you want a bigger slice of the Portfolio cake!!
You are like RaGa is my take!!
Kuch bollte ho aur kuch aur karte ho!!
Kuchch bhi anaap shanaap bollne se nahi darrte ho!!
In UP Rule of Law is returning!!
And with anger Pseudos are burning!!
Maybe they feel they have a right to eve-tease!!
And why can't illegal abattoirs be given a lease!
Why should they be stopped from spitting all around!!
By no law they should be bound!!
During SP rule law was binned!!
By an appeasing Government on the mat law was pinned!
This is just the start!!
From path of rectification Yogi is not going to depart!
And soon the financial inclusivity will kick in!!
Its often said in the end money does win!!
I note nowadays Congis are like lost sheep!!
Give them a shoulder and they start to weep!!
No ..no its not because they miss Ma-Beta!!
They say without power what is the use of being a Neta!
Powerless they are at a loose end!!
It's literally driving them round the bend!!
Ask Congis Ma-Beta ko miss karte ho ke no!
They whisper ...power zyaada yeh dono so-so!
Though now a bunch who are extremely faithful!!
Saying Priyanka's Beti is the new hope cock and bull!
They simply refuse to realize Nation has moved on!
Now it does not matter in which family you are born!
Desh badal gaya parr Congress wahi ki wahi!!
Lagtha hai badal sakthe nahi!!
Aur joh nahi baddle ga woh reh jaye ga!!
Beech majdhaar mein gothe khaaye ga!!
Confucius say... Karma plays its role!!
Bahut jaldi no one will touch Congress even with a pole!
Adds...Soon will run out of candidates for polls!!
In Congress's boat too manu holes!!

Where is Democracy?
While BJP won more seats in UP, but CM, A N Yogi did not contest and
is not an MLA. So where is the question of People's Mandate ? He has
been thrust upon the people by High Command of BJP .This is not democracy.

Rank and status of CM and Deputy CM on Advisers/OSDs ?
Appointment of Advisers and OSDs etc to CM or Deputy CM, is a routine
ritual in any new regime. For long these appointees have also been conferred
the honorifics of cabinet ministers, ministers of state and deputy ministers
etc. This time a new beginning appears to have been made of conferring
the rank and status of Chief Parliamentary Secretary on some of such
political appointees, though such posts of CPSs have been adjudged null
and void and unconstitutional by the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
I am surprised as to why only the position of ministers etc is undermined
by conferring their rank on the office appointees and why the status
of such appointees is enhanced by likening them to ministers. Time has
come when such vain-glorious exercise of extravagance further evolves
itself to embrace the posts of cm and deputy cm also. Then the heading
would be, ''Ramesh kumar appointed adviser/OSD to CM in the rank and
status of CM/Deputy CM. ''In the alternative such a ludicrous/ridiculous
system forms part of the VIP culture and must end.

Initiate disciplinary proceedings
Disciplinary proceedings should be initiated against those Class I &
II Officers of the Income Tax Department, immediately. They are enjoying
the maximum invasive sovereign powers and at the same time conducting
strike against the government. The Cabinet Secretary should call for
a report from the Revenue Secretary inquiring if salary is going to
be deducted for the day's absence from the Class I & II Officers
for participating in strike and also any disciplinary proceedings have
been initiated against those Class I & II Officers.

Non-receipt of RTI application sent by registered post
The RTI application was sent through Registered post and the same
was delivered in the respondent organization. However, the respondent
claimed that the RTI application was not received and hence, no
reply within the stipulated time could be provided to the appellant.
To ascertain the facts leading to the misplacement of the RTI
application filed by the appellant, the CIC directed the FAA,
Ministry of Home Affairs to inquire into the matter of the 'missing'
RTI application and to ascertain as to whether the RTI application
was actually misplaced or the CPIO had taken that plea to deny
information to the appellant. The FAA was directed to take appropriate
departmental action against the officers/officials responsible
for the misplacement of the RTI application, if required. A copy
of the inquiry report along with the action taken report was directed
to be provided to the Commission as well as to the appellant within
a period of six weeks. Further, a compensation of Rs. 2,500/-
was granted to the appellant. The CIC also observed that the First
Appellate Authority should give an opportunity of hearing to any
Appellant if the Appellant expressly wants to be heard.
Comments
Record keeping and proper maintenance of files is a key function
of any Public Authority. Every Public Authority should strive
to maintain a system where the records are maintained in a manner
from where they can be retrieved in a timely manner.
