Develop institutions of democracy to rate India as a true democratic country
Hillary Clinton has been fined 80 pounds by
the traffic constable for illegally parking her car in London. This news goads
me to think about how our police behaves in case of an MLA, MP, babu or even a
Mukhia or ward Councilor parks his or her vehicle on the middle of the road.
The traffic police would look in the opposite direction but it would pounce
upon the poor rickshaw puller, auto driver, cyclist or a motor cyclist the
moment they pause even at the way-side. It is rare but if an honest-upright
policeman dares touch an influential offender he is bound to invite trouble for
himself. People say, when the driver of the official car of the first Bihar Chief
Minister Shri Krshna Singh parked the car illegally he had been fined by a
police officer. The Chief Minister was very pleased and had rewarded the
officer. But now this is anachronistic.
This is the difference in the concepts of democracy in the UK and that in our country. Democratic institutions in the UK are developed while ours are half baked.
Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose had said India was not ripe for democracy so a benevolent dictatorship was needed to first cleanse the evils from society and politics. But this country adopted a model what is known as Gandhi-Nehru model that proved disastrous for the country. India was divided on religious lines still the problem plagues the nation. Corruption was institutionalized and got recognition and respectability. Constitutional provisions of even fundamental rights were conditioned under qualified specifications of parochial politics.
If we are to usher in a true democracy we shall have to develop our democratic institutions first. I would quote a couplet of Iqbal "जम्हुरिअत एक तर्ज़-ए-हुकुमत है कि जिसमें बंदों को गिना करते हैं तोला नहीं करते"

इस देश की आत्मा मृतप्राय होने को है
कल समाचार-पत्रों में पढ़ा, कांग्रेसी सांसद राजबब्बर रक्षा मामलों की संसदीय सलाहकार समिति की बैठक; जिसमें सेना के आला अफसर ब्रीफ कर रहे थे बीच में अधूरा छोड़ कर फ्लाईट पकड़ने के लिए भाग गया/
देश की वाह्य-आंतरिक सुरक्षा, पाक-चीनी घुसपैठ, आतंकवाद तथा जवानों के बलिदान आज मुल्क के हुक्मरानों के लिए कोई अहमियत नहीं रखते/ अन्यथा कोई नौटंकी बाज़ संसद की सलाहकार समिति जैसे गंभीर संस्था में जगह कैसे पा सकता है/
ऐसा लगता है कि राजनीतिक अपसंस्कृति को समाज की मान्यता मिल गयी है/ जो जितनी बेशर्मी करे वह उतना ही बड़ा नेता,नौकरशाह,उद्योगपति होगा /
इस देश की आत्मा मृतप्राय होने को है/

Pragya Singh Thakur a case of State discrimination
I wrote in my previous blog
entitled "The terrorists in India are more privileged than the
unfortunate lady saint Pragya"
Even after six years the
trial of the fabricated terror-case involving Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur is yet
to start and come to a logical end. Our whole system is plagued by corrupt and
pliable persons. The terrorists in India backed by Pakistan and pampered by
communal "secularists" are being let off. They are even given
compensation.
The denial of bail to the Cancer afflicted Pragya poses a
question whether the judiciary can act at the desire of the home minister who
violates the Article-15 of the Constitution of India by openly advocating that
terrorists from a particular community be granted special treatment.
Shinde and
Chidambram must be hauled up for launching propeganda like saffron terrorism.
Why even not a single so called saffron terrorist has been convicted to this
day? Mulayam, Maya, Vadra can be fortunate to go scot-free for amassing wealth
beyond their legitimate sources of income. Raja and Kalmadi who looted public
fund can get bail but a sick lady saint falsely implicated can not. She has no human rights and the human rights organizations thriving on public fund have no attention to her plight.

General V.K Singh should not share any security related clandestine operations intelligence with anyone including the media
Elements backed by Pakistan
government and its terror machine the ISI are very active in India. They want
to debilitate our institutions like army, I.B., R.A.W and other specialized defense
units entrusted with the task to secure our country from external and internal machinations.
That is why a retired army
chief who had frustrated the designs of the corrupt politicians to get
kick-backs in defence purchase deals during his tenure is being targeted
doggedly. He is being forced to reveal inputs of covert operations done in the
interest of the nation by targeting his character. We appeal to General V.K
Singh not to share any security related clandestine operations intelligence
with anyone including the media. It is exactly what Pakistan and other inimical
countries want through their agents in governance. General Singh must know that
the several politicians, Journalists, bureaucrats, businessmen and so-called
academics of India have been on the pay-roll of the USA and other countries.
Osama Bin laden could not have been killed without bribing the Pakistanis in
the army and government.
The Union Government must
reply to the country as to why the secessionists in Jammu & Kashmir are living
on public largesse, why the Abdullahs are playing double games, why the antinational
there have not been crushed in a way the Americans do., what has been the
account of thousands of crores of money pumped into the state by the Centre,
why is the development not noticeable in commensurate with the money, why Article
370 is still a cruel joke for the rest of the Indians.
Terrorists killed by our
brave forces are held as heroes by politicians who have no compunction to
implicate officers who liquidated them.
Only yesterday the whole
Government busied itself to get an ordinance in place to negate the Supreme
Court Judgment on disqualifying the legislators convicted in crimes, only to
benefit Laloo from probable corruption conviction. The President should not act in haste and
should discuss the matter with legal luminaries.
Rampant corruption, wretched
economic situation, unprecedented price rise, communal vote politics, repeated
unchallenged violations of our borders by belligerent neighbors and penetration
of terrorists all where have been given a short shrift.

CAG’s Officer Splurge 25 Lakhs of Government Fund on Tour Only
I wrote
in my blog “Extravagance in CAG organisation unpardonable” three years back.
The overzealous
crusader against corruption in public places Vinod Rai the then CAG looked the
other way. When it came to fighting corruption within his own organization Rai
definitely adopted an ostrich like attitude. Complaints with tangible charges
of corruption & misconduct against officers under him were never looked
into. There are numerous instances where tainted officers were promoted without
a hitch, accommodated in desired posts, given extensions after extensions.
One blue
eyed officer was posted in Bihar just after Rai’s coronation as the super sentinel,
given charges of three different offices at
points of time, readily granted extensions at his will and lastly
continued at Patna till the Rai’s tenure ended. Even Rai gratified him at the
last moment of the tenure by posting him as Principal Director Inspection in
the CAG office. No bigger joke than the assignment having the opposite persona.
This officer passed outlandish orders and Rai blessed him. He falsified records
and Rai ignored, he indulged in corruption and Rai took no notice of.
Now the
RTI information reveals vide Annexure-A of letter no. Admn 1/RTI/2013-14/387 dated 05/07/2013 issued by O/O A.G (A&E)
Bihar Patna and vide Appellate Authority's Annexure-A of letter no. A.G.(A&E) Admn 1 (A&E)/RTI/13-14/641 dated 30.8.13 that one officer Shri IDS
Dhariwal spent about Rs. 25 lakh on tour only during his posting in Bihar. He
spent about Rs.13 lakh from government fund on air travel alone. The exact
figure of government money spent by Dhariwal on tour is Rs.19,18,808/ in
addition to free rail passes of AC 1st class which must have been
not less than Rs. Five lakhs.
IDS
Dhariwal paid his membership fee of the elite Patna Golf Club Rs.31,163/ from
state exchequer. Needless to say this allied officer lived like a king in the
state of Bihar which ranks 74th in global hunger index.
The whole
institution is mired deep into the cesspool of corruption. The new CAG has a
task to cleanse it.

राजस्व नियंत्रण तथा वित्त प्रबंधन के कोई प्रभावकारी उपाय आज देश के नेतृत्व के पास नहीं है,यदि इस देश की आर्थिक स्थिति और भी अधिक जर्जर हुई तो पूरा देश भयानक अव्यवस्था में फँस जायेगा/
