What is wrong? What should be done?

Judges also think they are the chosen ones

In my earlier blog, I had mentioned that why do we have separate rule for different people when the constitution promises equality for all. Buta Singh as chairman of the some commission can only be removed for corruption after procedures different from others is followed. Now the judiciary wants to have a different procedure. I think we have different procedures for some government officials. This is absolutely ridiculous. Nobody and I mean nobody including the President and the Prime Minister should be exempted from being prosecuted for corruption. The procedure adopted for everybody should be the same. I am surprised why this has not been challenged by somebody in a court of law.

Shashi Tharoor should clear the air

I am totally amazed at the attitude of Congess party. It has stated that the “Shashi-Sunanda-IPL” fiasco is a personal matter of the minister and that it has nothing to do with the Congress party. With an attitude like this how can corruption be ever eliminated in this country?

What even business schools don’t teach!

I have recently published a management magazine titled “Management Talk.” The first issue was released in November 2009. This first issue of the magazine is focussed on making management concepts simple and easy to understand for students, teachers and practitioners of management including executives and entreprenuers. From next issue onwards, I am planning to include article(s) of the government management and what we need to do to fix the problems of our country. I haver already been writing about this here as well on my website www.vote2change.org.

3-yearly budget – A sane proposal at last!

13th finance commission had recommended that there should a 3-yearly budget and that the government should stop tweaking the tax and duty rates or major policies every year. Now this makes perfect sense. This would save everybody’s time as well as a great deal of money. Look at the time spent by the government in preparing the budget and the businesses speculating and tracking the changes in the budget every year.

Media needs to get its act together

On 1/1/2010 I posted an article here titled “Nitin Gadkari misses a big opportunity for BJP.” On 2/1/2010, Hindustan Times writes an editorial criticising Nitin Gadkari and BJP for supporting JMM’s Shibu Soren and at the same time hoping that gadkari is able to increase the party’s base by 10% so that BJP is back as a largest opposition party.

Nitin Gadkari misses a big opportunity for BJP

The elections in Jharkhand offered an excellent opportunity to the BJP president to “walk his talk” as well as bring back BJP back into the game. How? Let me explain.

What aam admi is Congress talking about?

You know I am tired of the political parties and especially the Congress talking about the aam admi. None of the political parties have any interest in the welfare of the aam admi or the common citizen of this country. Inspite of being the owner of this country, the common man is completely ignored except when it comes to elections.

Its the corruption, stupid!

I have maintained all through that corruption and practically no accountability of the government officials nad bureaucrats is the root cause of all our problems. You name the problem and its root cause is corruption and unaccountability of government officials.

Praful Patel should be removed as the minister of civil aviation

I was shocked to read a report in ET that the number of foreign flights operating out of India increased from 711 services a week to 1315 services a week, an increase of nearly 90% since summer of 2004. The number of passengers have gone up from 14 million to 27 million in the same period. But Air India is losing money and market share while the foreign airlines are making hay. Air India and Jet share has come down drastically from 40-50% to 10% now.

Why can’t we remove Buta Singh immediately?

According to our constitution, everyone has to be treated equal. Then why is it that permissions have to be obtained to prosecute some people? Why is there a special procedure to be adopted to prosecute or terminate Buta Singh? Why can’t we prosecute the chief justice for corruption if there is a probable cause? In fact according to me, these people hold positions of trust and should be prosecuted for corruption immediately.
