Bureaucracy run CMOs and PMO is run by PM !

It is said that most of the Chief Minister’s office are run by the bureaucrats and presently the Prime Minister’s office is run by PM only. This is the difference between the PM and the CM.

 

Cong can't bear Nation celebrating very heroic and decisive action by our Fauj?

My friend  who works for a Political Think Tank meets me at my favourite Cafe and over Mini Burgers... Donuts and Cappuccinos we get chatting.

Me: So what's the latest on Rafalle...

Friend:  US and European Companies who were interested in the MMRCA Contract ...their reps met in Germany.... two Indian Political Bigwigs and an Indian Arms Dealer were present.... they all are planning  and funding this anti Rafale campaign ....they've hired two Foreign Spin Doctors and a very Senior Retired Diplomat from UK to work on French Leaders......  malign Rafale Deal and Modi....objective... Rafale Deal gets cancelled..

M: Jaitley has opined this is all orchestrated...so they feel Deal will get cancelled and next year Congress will come to power and one of them will get the Deal...

F: That's the objective....the ground reality here is that  Congress doesn't have a chance in hell to come to power...

M: Maybe Congress has hired a Consultant to paint a rosy picture to this lot...flow charts....pie charts....stats.....surveys and content by Durbaaris..... etc...that it's coming to power...

F: I think these Sheikh Chillis are throwing money down  the drain....

M: Now Congress and Durbaris questioning Government.  ...why Operation Parakram.... Surgical  Strikes...  being celebrated..

F: This very lot has been questioning the Surgical Strikes... trying to show the Strikes were just a drama... Congress  falsely even claimed it had carried out 3 Surgical Strikes....this Celebration is for the Morale of our Faujis... and to rub salt into the wounds of our Enemy..

M: Fact is their hatred for Modi is so much that they can't bear Nation celebrating very heroic and decisive action  by our Fauj...

F: And Kejriwal is not far behind....in 3 1/2 years he never wished MMS a Happy Birthday..in fact in 2012 he called MMS a corrupt Leader...this year all of a sudden he has discovered the virtues of MMS...

M: And he's also found love for Majority Minority..

F: Is he trying to grab Muslim Votes moving away from Congress because of RaGa turning Jenudhari....

M: Sabrimala... I expect Pilgrims to self regulate and the Trust to educate Pilgrims about the Tradition there...  not many Indians will de-link their Aadhar Cards and surely Society  will self  regulate on Adultery ...all religions as it is have strong views...

We have a good laugh and I pay the tab and we move out...

Babus Find Politics More Vibrant To Serve The People

 
By Sanjay Sharma
 
Much has been said from time to time on the merits and demerits of bureaucrats joining politics. It has also been debated for long whether there should be a ‘cooling off’ period for a civil servant before he enters politics after quitting or even after retirement.
 
While difference of opinion over these issues can never be ruled out, there could be no two opinions that, theoretically bureaucrats are most eligible and efficient persons for becoming politicians as they are well acquainted with ground realities - necessary for policy formation.
 
Having worked at various stages - at district level as collectors, at state level in secretariat and , in majority cases, at various positions in central government, they are supposed to be well versed with the ‘process of policy implementation’ - a boon to serve the nation  in their stint as a politician and as a minister in government in particular,.
 
But since the officers rarely have the freedom to work as they please, and are mostly employed in service of politicians and not the State, many of them  - eyeing politics as a vibrant medium of serving the nation - join it.
 
There is a long list of former bureaucrats, police officers, diplomats, technocrats, academics and army officers who are into politics.
 
They include familiar names like General VK Singh, Kiran Bedi, Ms. Meira Kumar, Hardeep Puri, RK Singh, Sanjiv Tripathi, Mani Shankar Aiyar, N K Singh, Satyapal Singh, Bhagirath Prasad, Yashwant Sinha, Ajit Jogi, Nagabhairava Jayaprakash Narayan, Alphons Kannanthanam, Jesudasu Seelam, J Sundara Sekhar, Arvind Kejriwal, PL Punia and the list goes on.........
