Re: [IAC#RG] Swaraj Abhiyan exposed as Congress proxy

It will be more sad for us if Corruption as process is not challenged collectively by all.

Sh.Sarajeet roy your alert focus is more is on persons and not on the process.

I agree your team should have invited during the finalisation of speakers in this new group-Anti Corruption Team-ACT.

Yesterday few of us as independent birds attended the ACT preparation meet and it was cleared Swaraj Abhiyan is only one of several stakeholder groups.

By the way this funda of Funds source alert controlling the agenda as highlighted by you is stale.

This alert is unknowingly used again and again wherein the modern logic remains that 90% taxpayers who pay taxes need to get their funds and services back from the 10% corrupt lobbies.

Allow me to share a recent article via link in this direction....

Re: [IAC#RG] Swaraj Abhiyan exposed as Congress proxy

You are right. Probably, Prashant Bhushan is inviting people like Aruna Roy to get media publicity, as these so called environmentalists and anti corruption crusaders enjoy huge media support for whatever reasons.

The fight against corruption has to be straightforward, pure and blunt.

Certainly Prashant Bhushan has been carrying out anti corruption crusades in his own way, though he allowed Kejriwal to exploit the Hazare led movement for his personal benefit and to get into power. Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav have proved themselves to be naïve by playing into the hands of Kejriwal. Now, they should not once again show themselves to be naïve by inviting for  Swaraj Abhiyan meet people like Aruna Roy who have certainly motivations that could be suspect.

The fight against corruption is not a one day affair or one election affair. Ultimately, it has to be fought in the minds and hearts of people, who should be made to revolt against the corrupt forces. The team of Prashant Bhushan and Yadav should not fall to the temptation of media publicity. If they would adopt such approach, Swaraj Abhiyaan movement would collapse like a pack of cards.

There is huge revulsion in the country amongst people about the widespread corruption. Any honest anti corruption crusader is bound to get support. Media publicity does not amount to support from people. Let not anyone think that media publicity is popularity, which is not so. On the other hand, it may be the just opposite.

Re: [IAC#RG] GoI's 'Safar' data exposes AAP's #ODD-EVEN flop show

Dear Gaur Sahab,

We are on same wavelength. Delhi's ecological balance is going for a six with Kejriwal in power. I , rather, appreciate Sheila Dixit as she had declared some community lands as city forests. In retrospect, she seemed to be a more mature leader.

Thats the tragedy with electoral  politics, elections are won on one issue, and the winning party take things for granted on all other issues. 

Kejriwal is doing another drama asking public on odd even. It needs experts to devise solutions. Public is not so well informed, rather, public get carried away by rhetoric.

Odd even is a temporary relief measure, its no solution. It would, instead, increase the problem- people would try to buy another extra vehicle  odd or even  to circumvent it. And, once someone has settled in Delhi you have no right to curtail his freedom of movement in such a blanket ban manner.

The city's transport become dependant on private vehicle use due to urban sprawl. Public transport start becoming unviable as city expands horizontally.  Many international studies exist on that. We have conveyed it to Gopal Rai, Kejriwal himself, kapil Mishra and others in his Govt. But this man can not understand all this.

 

He is urbanizing the remaining agricultural green belt in Delhi and going for 24 lakh flats in its place. Polluted air generated in city will not be able to disperse in time due to need for it to travel much longer distance to reach hinterland, thus making the city more polluted.

Dear Shri Venkaramanji,

I think you have captured the essence of the issue and thank you for highlighting it.

Kejriwal may showcase his good governance initiative in curbing corruption, but a faulty development vision is a much bigger danger than financial corruption.

Its now I realize that the Sheila led Congress government in Delhi was more mature. She understood the population load on Delhi and converted many community lands into city forests. There are many examples like Issapur , Mundhela, Mitrao and other villages where these lands were converted into city forests.

But, Mr. Kejriwal is just chasing land pieces all around Delhi, and want to put concrete into all community lands ( Gram sabha lands) that are still unbuilt.  He is giving his go ahead to urbanize 89 villages in Delhi that are still rural, thus opening these lands for real estate. 24 lakh flats are going to be built in these fertile lands that still support agriculture. That makes it 1 crore  people plus another 1 crore that would add informally in ever growing villages and unauthorized colonies.

People, almost 50%, already live in hell like conditions in Delhi with little open spaces and short of many other amenities. He should focus on providing proper quality of life to those that are existing before inviting more through such schemes.

I am wondering how he is assuming that Delhi can handle so much load.

I have handed  document with evidence from international studies to Kejriwal, Ashish Khaitan, Pankaj Gupta (AAP Sec'y), Kapil Mishra (Water Minister) cautioning against this mad rush for concretization of the city. I have offered them that a group of professors from Delhi University, JNU, Jamia Milia can give a presentation on appropriate development model for Delhi. But these experts do not mean anything to them. Thats what he said to me during my meeting with Kejriwal on 6th Jan, 2016.

Kejriwal's ill advised move for industrial park in Delhi

Delhi is now considered to be one of the most polluted cities in the world. Obviously, what is needed to reduce the pollution load in the city is to decongest the population to the extent possible, by launching imaginative schemes to make it attractive and possible for people to move out of Delhi.

Instead  of thinking and acting on such pragmatic strategies, Kejriwal appears to be keen to promote industrial park in Rani Khera area In West Delhi, by occupying 147 acres of land to construct a huge building complex that would cost around Rs.3098 cr. for housing many offices and other commercial activities.

When concerned people met him carrying with them the signatures of 5000 citizens of Delhi opposing his move to construct industrial park and asking for construction of an eco friendly bio diversity park, Kejriwal appears to have rejected the suggestions outright and with amazing short sighteness ,he was reported to have said that he would take ultimate decision after consulting with 'Mohulla sabha'.

Certainly, it is clear now that Kejriwal is running out of ideas. His recent move for odd-even vehicle movement in Delhi is a careless  step, that has yielded no results, as expected. What is required is to de congest the vehicle population in Delhi by totally denying registrations for new cars and two wheelers for another 3 years  until the pollution load would diminish to acceptable level and imposing ban on old vehicles that do not have the required  eco standards..

Kejriwal has targeted the cars, while the number one pollutant in Delhi is dust, number 2 bei ng trucks and number 3 being the two wheelers. He has not found any tangible solution with his odd even s cheme.

While this is so, he wants to go ahead with his industrial park plan arguing that it would promote employment and bring revenue to the state. It is surprising that Kejriwal has not understood that  with employment generation that would attract more people from  outside Delhi, pollution load will also further increase ,that Delhi cannot afford. Instead of trying to find solution for pollution problem, he is adding to it by launching an industrial park.

Certainly, there is strong case for the concerned citizens in Delhi who  understand the grave nature of the ecological  issues, to organise themselves and launch a strong  campaign to ensure that Kejriwal would give up this ill advised industrial park proposal. The campaign should demand that the 147 acre of land should be converted to a bio diversity park, which can be a healthy ecological hub for Delhi city,  that Delhi needs desperately.  

The consequence of constructing a massive industrial park in Delhi is too serious from the ecological point of view, to be ignored. There is urgent need  for vigorous public protest to save Delhi from one more step towards  ecological  disaster.

Re: [IAC#RG] LODHA Committee report on cricket

The Lodha Commission Report, The Supreme Court directions on 5.2.2016, Times of India report,below, on the good work of our NSA, Ajit Doval, ALL POINT THAT THE BALL IS IN THE FINANCE MINISTRIES, COURT.

----//----//---

Times of India report:-

NEW DELHI: National security advisor Ajit Doval has a strategy to weaken Dawood Ibrahim and his syndicate. The plan is to identify D-Company's offshore assets and get them frozen, sources say.

IB and RAW teams have begun identifying assets D-Company owns globally. Most of these are in Dubai and Africa, investigations show. This will need extensive use of the global intelligence network, as most assets are benami. Some are in Dawood's daughter and son-in-law's names.

Doval's Dawood dossier lists firms like Dubai's Oasis Oil and Lube LCC, Al-Noor Diamonds and Oasis Power LCC, allegedly owned by Dawood. Other firms include Dolphin Constructions, East West Airlines (now defunct), King Video, Dubai, Moin Garments, Dubai and others.

The dossier names one Feroze as a key syndicate member handling the Dubai operations. "Feroze handles Oasis oil and Lube LCC and is often addressed as Feroze Oasis. He's South Indian, speaks Tamil, Arab, English and Hindi. Feroze handles Al Noor diamonds too," it says.

Most of the syndicate's operations are in India, it says and highlights Dawood's role in the 2008 Mumbai blasts. The dossier details the syndicate's smuggling links in south Asia, Africa and Middle East shared with al-Qaida.

"Dawood has close links with al-Qaida as a result of which the US declared him a 'global terrorist' in 2003 and pursued the matter with the UN to freeze his assets. Dawood controls the hawala system. His syndicate has consistently aimed to destabilize India through riots, terrorism and civil disobedience," it reads.

The dossier quotes a US treasury department report citing D-Company's involvement in shipping narcotics to the UK and Western Europe. "The US has designated Dawood as a terrorist... and maintains a factsheet on him," it says. The US treasury department has details on his movements through Afghanistan in the late '90s under Taliban protection.

The dossier lists one Javed Chutani, alias Doctor, as Dawood's man handling operations in Dubai. "He's a bookie with interests in real estate and his gambling book is in the name of Kamran. Chutani is a bridge between one Tariq Dubai and Dawood," the dossier claims.

The file says Dawood's cash comes from drug trade; fake currency racket, realty and money laundering. Agencies feel once they have control over Dawood's offshore assets, "it'll break the security cordon around him. Once that goes, getting him will be a cakewalk," an officer said.

ACTION PLAN :-

Subject: END UNDERWORLD AND THROUGH THEM THE DANGEROUS TERROR NETWORK !

Dear Sir,
Human beings are gamblers by nature.

The reader of this piece gambles every time he or she crosses a road – one gambles that one will make it safely before being decapitated by that onrushing vehicle visible in the distance. When such a gamble goes wrong (i.e. misjudgment of the oncoming object's velocity), the result is an accident.

Every time anyone eat a prawn, enters a building, plants a crop, takes a medicine, sits in an aircraft, they gamble that the outcome is a favourable one.  They wager that the prawn is free from E. Coli, that no earthquake occurs while you are in a building, that Monsoon rains are timely, that the medicine you have ingested is not spurious, that the airplane lands safely.
Given the observed frequency with which such "gambles" succeed, almost invariably we get away unscathed. Except, of course, very unfortunate few.

Insurance is a gamble. The insurance companies are betting that we are going to live and employ an army of actuaries to calculate the odds; we are betting that we are going to die prematurely; and we pay them for the privilege of thinking so.

In such a situation, one has to wonder about the social stigma against wagering on sport in India. 

 Until the conduct of players like Hansie Cronje, Manoj Prabhakar, Mohammad Asif, Sreesanth, etc., came under the microscope, cricket was regarded as being lily-white clean, despite the knowledge of widespread under-the-table wagering and match-fixing. 

Accurate estimates are of course impossible, but anecdotal estimates suggest cricket wagering in India runs into thousands of crores. And potential revenue from this source seeps unchecked into the UNDERWORLD AND THROUGH THEM TO THE DANGEROUS TERROR NETWORK !

Similarly, "day trading" at the bourses is considered to be "investment" despite the fact that it more closely resembles gambling.
What cannot be cured must be endured, and if the Central and State Governments think that betting on cricket, football, tennis, etc., can be eliminated by mere administrative fiat, they are indulging in the sort of fantasies that have bedevilled the country's polity for decades under earlier administrations.

It is far better, then,to regulate wagering on all sports by e-governance by establishment of a nation-wide Totalisator to legally pool betting and distribute dividends.
It may not be a perfect example, but if one city in CHINA – Hong Kong – can generate a turnover of HK$103.9 billion (US$13.4 billion ) in 2013-14 from horse racing alone, the scope of revenue from legal sports betting on E-governance Totalisators, can well be imagined. 

Indisputably a country of 1.2 billion people with 7 times the GDP of Hong Kong can do 7 times better by collecting Rs1,09,200/-crores in taxes* paid wilfully annually.

Good plan to reduce the nagging fiscal deficit of the Government of India. No archaic "principles" should prevent tapping this rich source?

Of course, like in Hong Kong, betting tax needs to be applied sensibly: a low "take-out" and exemption of wagering dividends – like those from equity shares – from income tax are pre- requisites. 
A low "take-out" will make it impossible for illegal dangerous networks to exist.

Wagering revenue from sports will thereby accrue to the state and to conductors of sport, both rightful recipients of funds, wilfully* and voluntarily*, offered by citizens from their discretionary incomes. 

The generation and distribution of "black money" by the vast illegal network will end.

Revenue apart, there is a strong security imperative to end illegal wagering in India. It will end evils like performance-altering inducements or threats, money-laundering, etc.!

Before anyone even hints that permitting legal wagering will drown India in a moral morass, consider that in England one can legally wager on elections, whether your just-born child will win Wimbledon in 2036, whether it will snow on Christmas Day, whether a man will walk on Mars before 2020, and any other weird or amusing happenstance that tickles your fancy. Legalization of such wagering has not made Great Britain debauched – though many would argue that in the absence of e-governance on Totalisers, bookmakers there have profited more than the Government!

Such an admittedly drastic change in attitudes towards legal wagering in India on all chance occurrences will require the exhibition of a degree of dynamism that was not evident in the previous dispensation. 

Are the current authorities, those in a position to fulfil the aspirations of the Indian people and bring them Achhe Din, up to it?

Regards, Pawan Bhatia.

Its now I realize that the Sheila led Congress government in Delhi was more mature. She understood the population load on Delhi and converted many community lands into city forests. There are many examples like Issapur , Mundhela, Mitrao and other villages where these lands were converted into city forests.

But, Mr. Kejriwal is just chasing land pieces all around Delhi, and want to put concrete into all community lands ( Gram sabha lands) that are still unbuilt.  He is giving his go ahead to urbanize 89 villages in Delhi that are still rural, thus opening these lands for real estate. 24 lakh flats are going to be built in these fertile lands that still support agriculture. That makes it 1 crore  people plus another 1 crore that would add informally in ever growing villages and unauthorized colonies.

People, almost 50%, already live in hell like conditions in Delhi with little open spaces and short of many other amenities. He should focus on providing proper quality of life to those that are existing before inviting more through such schemes.

I am wondering how he is assuming that Delhi can handle so much load.

I have handed  document with evidence from international studies to Kejriwal, Ashish Khaitan, Pankaj Gupta (AAP Sec'y), Kapil Mishra (Water Minister) cautioning against this mad rush for concretization of the city. I have offered them that a group of professors from Delhi University, JNU, Jamia Milia can give a presentation on appropriate development model for Delhi. But these experts do not mean anything to them. Thats what he said to me during my meeting with Kejriwal on 6th Jan, 2016.

Kejriwal's ill advised move for industrial park in Delhi

Delhi is now considered to be one of the most polluted cities in the world. Obviously, what is needed to reduce the pollution load in the city is to decongest the population to the extent possible, by launching imaginative schemes to make it attractive and possible for people to move out of Delhi.

Instead  of thinking and acting on such pragmatic strategies, Kejriwal appears to be keen to promote industrial park in Rani Khera area In West Delhi, by occupying 147 acres of land to construct a huge building complex that would cost around Rs.3098 cr. for housing many offices and other commercial activities.

When concerned people met him carrying with them the signatures of 5000 citizens of Delhi opposing his move to construct industrial park and asking for construction of an eco friendly bio diversity park, Kejriwal appears to have rejected the suggestions outright and with amazing short sighteness ,he was reported to have said that he would take ultimate decision after consulting with 'Mohulla sabha'.

Certainly, it is clear now that Kejriwal is running out of ideas. His recent move for odd-even vehicle movement in Delhi is a careless  step, that has yielded no results, as expected. What is required is to de congest the vehicle population in Delhi by totally denying registrations for new cars and two wheelers for another 3 years  until the pollution load would diminish to acceptable level and imposing ban on old vehicles that do not have the required  eco standards..

Kejriwal has targeted the cars, while the number one pollutant in Delhi is dust, number 2 bei ng trucks and number 3 being the two wheelers. He has not found any tangible solution with his odd even s cheme.

While this is so, he wants to go ahead with his industrial park plan arguing that it would promote employment and bring revenue to the state. It is surprising that Kejriwal has not understood that  with employment generation that would attract more people from  outside Delhi, pollution load will also further increase ,that Delhi cannot afford. Instead of trying to find solution for pollution problem, he is adding to it by launching an industrial park.

Certainly, there is strong case for the concerned citizens in Delhi who  understand the grave nature of the ecological  issues, to organise themselves and launch a strong  campaign to ensure that Kejriwal would give up this ill advised industrial park proposal. The campaign should demand that the 147 acre of land should be converted to a bio diversity park, which can be a healthy ecological hub for Delhi city,  that Delhi needs desperately.  

The consequence of constructing a massive industrial park in Delhi is too serious from the ecological point of view, to be ignored. There is urgent need  for vigorous public protest to save Delhi from one more step towards  ecological  disaster.

[IAC#RG] Swaraj Abhiyan exposed as Congress proxy

It is really sad to see these stale jokers like Yogendra Yadav and
Prashant Bhushan having to scrape the bottom of the barrel by touting
completely discredited foreign financed lightweights like Aruna Roy,
Nikhil Dey, Anjali Bhardwaj as "anti-corruption experts" and star
attractions at Swaraj Abhiyan's anti-corruption meet scheduled for
27-28 Feb 2016.

All these Ford Foundation / CIA backed scamps seem to be aligning to
promote RaGa as the next Mr.Clean (like his father pre-Bofors). The
only people who will benefit from this kind of Swaraj Abhiyan
nonsense, politically, is AAP.

Dear Shri Venkaramanji,

I think you have captured the essence of the issue and thank you for highlighting it.

Its now I realize that the Sheila led Congress government in Delhi was more mature. She understood the population load on Delhi and converted many community lands into city forests. There are many examples like Issapur , Mundhela, Mitrao and other villages where these lands were converted into city forests.

But, Mr. Kejriwal is just chasing land pieces all around Delhi, and want to put concrete into all community lands ( Gram sabha lands) that are still unbuilt.  He is giving his go ahead to urbanize 89 villages in Delhi that are still rural, thus opening these lands for real estate. 24 lakh flats are going to be built in these fertile lands that still support agriculture. That makes it 1 crore  people plus another 1 crore that would add informally in ever growing villages and unauthorized colonies.

People, almost 50%, already live in hell like conditions in Delhi with little open spaces and short of many other amenities. He should focus on providing proper quality of life to those that are existing before inviting more through such schemes.

I am wondering how he is assuming that Delhi can handle so much load.

I have handed  document with evidence from international studies to Kejriwal, Ashish Khaitan, Pankaj Gupta (AAP Sec'y), Kapil Mishra (Water Minister) cautioning against this mad rush for concretization of the city. I have offered them that a group of professors from Delhi University, JNU, Jamia Milia can give a presentation on appropriate development model for Delhi. But these experts do not mean anything to them. Thats what he said to me during my meeting with Kejriwal on 6th Jan, 2016.
