[HumJanenge] II Re: Pragmatic Euphony

. . . . . We can instead expect announcement of some confidence-building measures over Kashmir at the end of the meeting. ////
 
1. We can also expect an exchange of FIRE in Kashmir, as well as all along the boarder.
to jerk the MEA & HM, DOLTS awake & may be more PRAGMATIC.
 
2. Also signal how much the Pakis care about India's CBM.
To coq a snook at their "dear" American bed mates, in "appreciation" of H Clinton's "India's leadership in SE Asia"  
 
Sort of  DON'T DISTURB SIGN !
 
3. A co-ordinated Terrorists attack (may be down south) to teach THE DYSLEXIC, what is meant by Co-ordination & Attack & show THEIR REACH ! ! !
 
ODs anyone ? 
 
Thanks for your time.

Best Wishes.

Pragmatic Euphony: Today's blogpost 


Fireworks, not fire

Posted: 23 Jul 2011 11:30 AM PDT

The build-up to the meeting of India-Pakistan foreign ministers at Delhi
From the Indian Home Minister's opening remarks at the Fourth SAARC Interior/Home Ministers Meeting:
Honourable Members, The South Asian region is perhaps the most troubled and vulnerable region in the world.   The vast majority of major terrorist incidents this year – as well as last year – have occurred in this region.  Terrorist groups in this region have flourished because of the support they have found from State and non-State actors.  Sometimes, I think that the distinction between State actors and non-State actors is misplaced and intended to misdirect our efforts to deal with terrorist groups at the very source – the recruitment centres, the training camps and their safe havens and sanctuaries.  If I may speak frankly, let me say that no State and no Government can escape responsibility by pointing to non-State actors.  As long as the territory of a country is used by non-State actors to prepare for terrorist attacks, that country owes a legal and moral responsibility to its neighbours and to the world to suppress those non-State actors and bring them to justice.[PIB]
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know that Mr Chidambaram's statement was directed at Pakistan.The lack of progress was flagged by an Indian government source in Delhi too.
During the talks between external affairs minister S M Krishna and his Pakistani counterpart Hina Rabbani Khar on July 27, the Indian side will emphasise that Pakistan needs to take action on 26/11 cases because terror-free atmosphere is very important for the talks to be more meaningful and productive.[HT]
It is not that only the Indians have been talking tough. Pakistan PM, reacting to the US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's statement asking India to play a leadership role in the Asia-Pacific, said that "we do not want any chaudhry [chieftain]" in the region.
However these barbs are not an indicator of things to come. The India-Pakistan Foreign minister's meeting will, in all probability, be without any fireworks. We can instead expect announcement of some confidence-building measures over Kashmir at the end of the meeting.

Dear Shri Bhanot,
 
Thanks for your message. Your optimism is praiseworthy. India is not China and will not become China (I have lived in China and prepared some
feasibility studies under UNIDO assignment). Let Sonia Gandhi and Sheila Dxit show some respect to Right to Information Act as well recommendations
of the Delhi Lokayukta's recommendation for action against PWD Minister in Delhi Govt.
 
Depaertments in Delhi Government and Delhi Development Authority are openly murdering RTI ACT by refusing information or giving intentionally
wrong and irrelevant information. If you go to CIC, his orders/decisions are not implemented for years together. Writing to Sheila Dixit who has one
Mr. Kapoor with her to handle such cases and he just does the work of post office and marks to some body who is expert in delays and killing
without providing any information or axction.
 
With this personal experience, and seeing blame game all around among politicians, let us hope that day will come soon (may not be in your life-time
or my life-time) when Poor Real India will get delivery and justice and not lipservice and growth projections of Ambanis or Mukherjee's.

In your friend's case, please appoint a good advocate who specialises in FAMILY LAW.
Do not initiate any action at the wife's place of work, that is deemed as "cruelty"
The husband can in initiate petition for what is known as "restitution of conjugal rights" (which is usually a prelude to seeking divorce / separation)

Re: [HumJanenge] Incorrect records = lame-duck Army Chief

I think Col Kurup has misunderstood what I wrote. The DOB was written
as 1950 instead of 1951 to facilitate entry into NDA and not IMA. At
that time, The qualification for NDA was matriculation (Class 10) and
the age was between 14 and 16. The exact dates for each course were
published in the papers.

After passing out from NDA, cadets automatically went to IMA. The age
was not material. They were enrolled as Havildars in ASC in order to
bring them under the Army Act. This procedure was followed for all
regular courses. During 1963-64, the procedure was probably suspended
due to the emergency.

[HumJanenge] Open Question

Is Our constitution provides a husband, a right to know where is his wife living, and with whom?
Incidently, all the relatives have turned deaf. She is working in a multnational company which is known to the husband.
 
 
Can RTI application be moved in this case to an apprpriate ministry - viz Social welfare, or family welfare.
 
Silence of wife over e-mails, and phone has made husban's life miserable?

Thanks

Re: [HumJanenge] Incorrect records = lame-duck Army Chief


 If his DOB is May 51 , as he claims, how did he join NDA in Jul 66  ?   He must have been only 15 yrs 2 mth at the time 36 th NDA  course commenced ,whereas , he should have been at least 15 and half on o1 Jan 66 ?

No. Absolutely No. WE THE PEOPLE OF INDIA both army and civil have  a
right to know the truth. Let us come to the remedial part or solution
to the above error later.Has the authorities found out how such
mistake got into the records ? Was it a human error or deliberate
attempt by anyone. The government cannot hoodwink the Nation  by not
telling as to how two dates of birth happened to be in vogue in the
recordsof an Army Officer. Let us not bother whether the officer is a
Capt or General.

Anyone who has the inside picture of higher heirarchy whether civil or
military knows as to how the above information leaked to the public.
There is a chain of officers who might benefit or loose depending on
when Gen VK Singh retire. in 2012 or 2013 ie., his date of birth
10-May 1950 or 10- May 1951. There is every likelyhood that  someone
from that chain might have leaked the information while the Army might
be sorting it out in its own style.

Third issue is  how this might have happened. If Maj Gen VK Singh's
views above is correct., ie., every Gentlemen Cadets were enrolled in
ASC as Hav to bring him under Army Act, it gives an indication of
likely possibility. I am not able to comment much on that as in my
time there was no such practice. and I was not enrolled in ASC as Hav
when I was a Gentleman
Cadet of IMA during 1963.However I feel that there is certain minimum
age limit laid down for one's  enrolment as an ASC Hav. If  Gen VK
Singh had enrolled as an ASC Hav when he was a Gentlemen Cadet he
couldnot have done it unless he had attained that age. With his date
of birth as 10-5-1951 he might have not been eligible. Someone with or
without the knowledge of young Gentleman Cadet VK Singh might have
entered his date of birth as 10-5-1950 and forgotten it till someone
who was aware of it might have dug it out. In that case Gen VK Singh
may not be the first case. There might have been a large number of
cases.  Army HQ may not be wanting to open this Pindora's box. But WE
THE PEOPLE OF INDIA have every right to open that Pindora;s box and
know the truth.  It is high time to stop that practice if still
continued and regularise all past cases in general and not to single
out Gen VK Singh.

Dear Shri Bhanot,
 
Thanks for your message. Your optimism is praiseworthy. India is not China and will not become China (I have lived in China and prepared some
feasibility studies under UNIDO assignment). Let Sonia Gandhi and Sheila Dxit show some respect to Right to Information Act as well recommendations
of the Delhi Lokayukta's recommendation for action against PWD Minister in Delhi Govt.
 
Depaertments in Delhi Government and Delhi Development Authority are openly murdering RTI ACT by refusing information or giving intentionally
wrong and irrelevant information. If you go to CIC, his orders/decisions are not implemented for years together. Writing to Sheila Dixit who has one
Mr. Kapoor with her to handle such cases and he just does the work of post office and marks to some body who is expert in delays and killing
without providing any information or axction.
 
With this personal experience, and seeing blame game all around among politicians, let us hope that day will come soon (may not be in your life-time
or my life-time) when Poor Real India will get delivery and justice and not lipservice and growth projections of Ambanis or Mukherjee's.

Re: [HumJanenge] Incorrect records = lame-duck Army Chief

It is a news to me that a GC in IMA was enrolled as a ASC hav to bring him under army act to my knowledge all GCs are also under the Army act,The reason for GC V K Singh to his dob as 1950 could be that he might not be attaining the age of enrolment otherwise n it amount to false answer at the time of enrolment which may need a discipline action against now gen V K Singh.Now since he has become a COAS he wants to take advantage of matriculation certificate,if  his DOB as on 1951 was right he could have taken the corrective measure much before ie first 5 yrs of his service as per rule whivh he did not do shows that he accepted his date of birth as per the entery in his intial record of service. The decision of govt of India in this regard is correct minus the discipline part against the officer which is also not possible now as per army act which also possible only with in first 3 yrs .

Re: [HumJanenge] Incorrect records = lame-duck Army Chief

Dear Col Kurup,
Could you tell me which NDA course did Gen VK Singh join.  He was a cadet when I was an instructor there but I am not sure of his course.  It will be worth a check if he was within permissible age limit if his DOB is May 51.
Col MMP Kala.

Now the picture is getting clear. Was  VK Singh eligible for enrolment
as ASC Haw if his date of birth shown as 10-5-1951? No. It seems he
was shown his date of birth 10-5-1950 to facilitate his enrolment in
the ASC as Hav if the enrolment story is correct. IThis  practice was
not in practice when I joined IMA as Gentlemen Cadet. If this story is
correct that may be a routine practice in all cases where the GCs are
underaged for enrolment. If someone bother to check, the fact will
emerge. If that be sok the issue is serious.

Re: [HumJanenge] Incorrect records = lame-duck Army Chief

No. Absolutely No. WE THE PEOPLE OF INDIA both army and civil have a
right to know the truth. Let us come to the remedial part or solution
to the above error later.Has the authorities found out how such
mistake got into the records ? Was it a human error or deliberate
attempt by anyone. The government cannot hoodwink the Nation by not
telling as to how two dates of birth happened to be in vogue in the
recordsof an Army Officer. Let us not bother whether the officer is a
Capt or General.

Anyone who has the inside picture of higher heirarchy whether civil or
military knows as to how the above information leaked to the public.
There is a chain of officers who might benefit or loose depending on
when Gen VK Singh retire. in 2012 or 2013 ie., his date of birth
10-May 1950 or 10- May 1951. There is every likelyhood that someone
from that chain might have leaked the information while the Army might
be sorting it out in its own style.

Third issue is how this might have happened. If Maj Gen VK Singh's
views above is correct., ie., every Gentlemen Cadets were enrolled in
ASC as Hav to bring him under Army Act, it gives an indication of
likely possibility. I am not able to comment much on that as in my
time there was no such practice. and I was not enrolled in ASC as Hav
when I was a Gentleman
Cadet of IMA during 1963.However I feel that there is certain minimum
age limit laid down for one's enrolment as an ASC Hav. If Gen VK
Singh had enrolled as an ASC Hav when he was a Gentlemen Cadet he
couldnot have done it unless he had attained that age. With his date
of birth as 10-5-1951 he might have not been eligible. Someone with or
without the knowledge of young Gentleman Cadet VK Singh might have
entered his date of birth as 10-5-1950 and forgotten it till someone
who was aware of it might have dug it out. In that case Gen VK Singh
may not be the first case. There might have been a large number of
cases. Army HQ may not be wanting to open this Pindora's box. But WE
THE PEOPLE OF INDIA have every right to open that Pindora;s box and
know the truth. It is high time to stop that practice if still
continued and regularise all past cases in general and not to single
out Gen VK Singh.
