Dear Venkatraman,
Well said.
I may add that even views expressed bu judges in informal but public platforms will be construed as their official views overshadowing their (supposedly) unbiased judgements by common man. This will erode people's faith in judiciary. This applies to really good and unbiased judges also. In short, people should 'know' about a judge by his judgements only.

[IAC#RG] SHOULD CHIEF JUSTICE INTERACT WITH THE MEDIA ?
To
India Against Corruption
SHOULD CHIEF JUSTICE INTERACT WITH THE MEDIA ?
The new Chief Justice of India has thought it fit to give interview to TV media. Those who believe that judges should have a code of conduct and keep themselves away from media glare and public meetings would be disappointed about this .
In the earlier days, when our country had much superior public standards , sitting judges even at lower courts scrupulously avoided such interactions , so that their personal views would not be aired and would not become a subject of debate. Judges should not only be neutral but should also appear to be so. Since they have to give judgements on variety of subjects, if they would participate in such public discourse, they may be suspected to be having prejudiced and pre conceived views while delivering their judgements on any matter.
Today, many people believe , rightly or wrongly, that judiciary can alone ensure fairness and public probity and they expect judges to do so. In such circumstances, judges have huge responsibility and should be able to stand up to the expectations of the nation.
In the earlier days, some judges did not even attend the marriage of niece and nephew . But, today we find judges sharing platforms with politicians who face charges in the court and some judges do not even hesitate to call on the Chief Minister at the office of the Chief Minister.

[IAC#RG] : Fw: SS43nt PUTIN'S SHORT SPEECH
Dear Friends ,
I think what Putin has said is absolutely correct . The Australian PM has addressed her Nation in similar terms on two occasions in the last couple of years . May be other Democracies also feel the same .
Dont you think it would make sense to our Nation , which has become so badly socially divided and is almost uncontrollable ? The Country's Laws are to be observed by every one with Equality , Justice and Fairness . Our Constitution also spells out all this very clearly .
We need Strong , Firm and Trusted Leadership to Steer our Great Nation on the right path .
Warm regards .
R Adm H.C.Malhotra
This is leadership.

Putin's Speech on Feb. 04, 2013
This is one time our elected leaders should pay attention to the
advice of Vladimir Putin.... how scary is that?
On February 4th, 2013, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president,
addressed the Duma, (Russian
Parliament), and gave a speech about the tensions with minorities in Russia:
"In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to
live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and
should respect the Russian laws.
If they prefer Sharia Law, then we advise them to go to those places
where that's the state law.
Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will
not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit
their desires, no matter how loud they yell 'discrimination'.
We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and
France, if we are to survive as a nation.
The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of
culture or the primitive ways of most minorities. When this honorable
legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind
the national interest first, observing that the minorities are not
Russians.
The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a five minute standing ovation.
If you keep this to yourself, you are part of the problem !

RE: [IAC#RG] Request for Information under RTI Act 2005.
22/7/13
Now that the time limit set by the CIC is over,IAC should write similar letters to other political parties covered by the order. The Govt. has neither amended the Act nor made any other move officially.
There is no doubt the political parties have to be made accountable. Filing of returns with Tax authorities is an eye-wash. In effect the political party in power not only controls the CentralGovt. but also the Parliament. Similar control extends to State Govts. including Governors down to Municipal and Panchayat institutions. In effect Governance is through remote control and yet they are fighting tooth and nail to remain unaccountable.

Dear Sirs,
Request for Information under RTI Act.
I am constrained to inform you that despite perusal of AICC website
(aicc.org.in) and also several telephone calls to AICC telephone
numbers (23019080) etc. there is no clarity on who the Public
Information Officer of INC party is.
I could speak to office of Congress Party PR cell-in-charge (Shri.
Ajay Maken MP who is also my MP) who informed that Office of Shri
Motilal Vora (Treasurer INC)is dealing with the subject. On calling
Administration office of AICC (Tel:23017137) it was confirmed to me
that Shri Motilal Vora is seized of the matter but that AICC/INC has
no intention of submitting to RTI Act but that there is no stay order
/ ordinance as yet against direction of Central Information Commission
for INC to appoint its RTI setup by 15-July-2013
Accordingly, since nobody in AICC/INC is prepared to accept my RTI
request for information or to tell me to in whose favour I should make
out the Demand Draft of Rs. 10 application fee, please find below my
RTI query which I hope shall be answered expeditiously or within 30
days in any case.
I am always ready, able and willing to pay the prescribed fees under
RTI whenever called upon to do so.
Information sought:
1) Shri Rahul Gandhi (present Vice President of INC) was widely
reported in reputed newspapers like Times of India and Indian Express
etc as having stated on or about 14 April 2012 "I am a Brahmin...and
general secretary in the party" or suchlike. Kindly therefore inform
me as follows:-
a) If it is true that Shri Rahul Gandhi was General Secretary of the
party on 14.April 2012.
b) If it is true that Shri Rahul Gandhi was a Brahmin on 14.April 2012.
c) Provide me copies of all the supporting documents on basis of which
these claims / statements were made by Shri Rahul Gandhi. In the
alternative, the rejoinder, if any, to the newspapers concerned about
their reportage and its veracity.
d) Provide me the extract(s) from audited Account Books of INC party
to show that Shri Rahul Gandhi (senior office bearer of INC Party) has
been timely in depositing 1% of his annual income as required under
the published Rules/Regulations of the Indian National Congress Party.

Dear Sirs,
It is clear that the diffrences between AAP and IAC are irreconcialable after S. Roy has articulated them a number of times mainly being the finanacial irregularities. Yet I believe certain decorum should be maintained in public uttrances.
Now that the 3 who were at one time integral part of the broad anti-corruption movement have parted ways, let each concentrate their energies on their core stength.
In due course of time people will judge their achievements.
On a broader scale, the civil society orgasnisation/forums are a divided house. There are reported to be more than 29000 NGOs working in difffrent fields on local,state level and national level. Majority of them are funded from indegenous funds but many are receiving foreign funds ever since India became in dependent The need of the hour is cooperation and collaboration among NGOs may be some kind of federation at State, National level. Till then the Govt. with the help from corporate world will keep the civil soiety movements divided and put them down.

Dear Ms Sharma
FIRST APPEAL UNDER RTI ACT
Please be informed that the CPIO of NAC has failed to provide me the information which I requested to be provided suo-moto to me under section 4 of RTI Act and even after you remanded the matter back to him. The email trail is enclosed for your reference.
As the Central Information Commission has clarified in its orders which I cited, such information is to be provided immediately and free of cost to the citizens.
I may also mention that it is very strange that the qualifications and mode / procedure of selection to be appointed as a Member or Chairperson of the NAC are not in public domain and are also not being disclosed to citizens who desire to be informed on the subject.
In these circumstances I must formally request a hearing opportunity to explain my appeal grounds, as I am very anxious to know how so many LWEs managed to get into the NAC to sell India's state secrets to the Chinese so cheaply.

Dear Mr Shrivastava
Many thanks for your reply.
1) I had requested for the information to be provided suo-moto under the Life or Liberty proviso to section 7(1) of RTI Act 2005 , whereas the CIC decision you have relied on is "per incuram" referring to some Life and Liberty matter,
2) For your information, Mr. Vidya Charan Shukla has passed away in the meantime.It is really shocking that such a venerable UPA leader was compelled at age 83 years to attend a meeting without adequate security in a Naxal dominated region on the motivated advice of the NAC member, who subsequently resigned.
3) It is really shocking that the NAC has been infested with so many Maoists and Naxalites for so many years since 2006.
4) It is really shocking that ever since the NAC was formed the number of LWE controlled districts in India has gone up from 53 to 287.
5) It is really shocking that another former NAC member Mr. Harsh Mander was sheltering the wife of a known LWE leader for over 2 years, and had to resign over this issue when it came out.
In the circumstances it would be eminently fit if the NAC declares ON ITS OWN the qualifications and procedures for appointment of its members, including its Chairperson, so that the nation knows how why so many innocent lives INCLUDING OF PARA-MILITARY & SECURITY FORCES are being lost on a daily basis through leakage of confidential government information by secret and unexplained placement of private LWE persons in councils like the NAC, Planning Commission etc. which advise the Prime Minister of India.
For your information, a double Bench of the Central Information Commission in my own case by order dt. 01.06.2009 in CIC/LS/C/2009/00322 has reiterated that section 4 disclosure is to be provided immediately, free of cost and without any request being made for it.
"(i) Since a reasonable time has now passed from the time of promulgation of the Act in 2005, the Public Authorities should now take urgent steps to have their records converted to electronic form, catalogued, indexed andWith best wishes
computerized for easy accessibility through the network all over the country, as mandated in section 4 (1) (a) of the Act. The computerization, dissemination and updating of record is an ongoing and continuous process and all Public Authorities should put a proper system in place to make such sharing of records an automatic, routine and continuous process, so that access to such records is facilitated.

Dear Sir/Madam,
URGENT
Sirs,
Sub: RTI request under section 4 of RTI Act 2005 to be complied immediately.
I am constrained to remind you that I have not received the suo-moto information sought by India Against Corruption's members vide my email dated 29-May-2013 (appended below).
The said email was sent under "Life or Liberty" clause of RTI Act on behalf of IAC (a strictly apolitical and secular people's movement) considering the deaths of so many persons in 25 May 2103 massacre who were "compelled" to go into areas well known to be LWE infested.
The reasons I am again requesting the information be published is summarised below:-
1) Because Ms Aruna Roy (former member NAC) is said to be a well known LWE. By way of example you may refer to the book "NGOs, Subversive Activists and Foreign Funds : the anti-nation industry 2nd edn." co-authored by her IAS batchmate Dr. Krishen Kak. Copies of the book are in the Library of Parliament. For your ready reference I am setting out a few directly relevant paragraphs therein
"'A careful look at the money trail of AID illustrates the functioning of the organisation, and throws light on other organisations that are used to funnel money collected by AID. These organisations co-ordinate their fund-raising activities and shadow their proceeds by passing through multiple accounts all controlled by like minded groups. One such organisation that has been funded by AID is called Tamil Nadu Science Forum (TNSF). TNSF works actively with DYFI. TNSF listed Balaji Sampath, who is also a founder of AID. Thus while Balaji Sampath's AID collects money in America, BALAJI SAMPATH (in his Indian incarnation!) receives money in India, ostensibly on behalf of TNSF.'I understand that TNSF 'as a policy' would always impose a pre-condition on the libraries in Tamilnadu which they were financially supporting to the effect that the concerned libraries would only support DYFI and no other student body before receiving any funds. AID is a secretive organisation which enjoys the full political support of the UPA Government in New Delhi. It was AID which extended generous financial support to Sandeep Pandey, founder of ASHA and a known Naxalite sympathizer, to undertake a political trip to Pakistan some years ago.
Those who work with AID and its allies also seem to be experts in organizing international prizes and awards to themselves as part of a civil and cultural conspiracy. One Sanjit 'Bunker' Roy was given a prize by the Aga Khan foundation for having developed rainwater harvesting structures. Later investigations by The Week clearly revealed that he had hired a professional architect called Neehar Raina to get the job done. Upon this exposure, Aga Khan Foundation changed its citation to fit in with the known facts! A secularly shameless non-communal Roy, ended up by returning his prize. Bunker Roy's wife Aruna Roy, is a Maoist and has worked closely with AID. Like many who have worked closely with AID in its undeclared mission of national subversion, she too has been awarded a prize by the Ramon Magsaysay Foundation.
I can only conclude that NGO's like AID, ASHA, CAIR, FeTNA are all committed to their supreme objective of De-Hinduising the Indian State which means rendering the Hindu identity to any aspect of our national life illegitimate and irrelevant in public life and public discourse"
2) That apparently post the May 25 2013 Chattisgarh massacre, specific intelligence was available to the Govt of India concerning the involvement of private member(s) of the NAC to "De-Hindu"-ise (?) the Congress Party's leadership in the presently BJP ruled States of Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh which go to polls very shortly .
3) That it is well known to MHA that front NGOs (such as Social Work Reserch Centre, Tilonia [Rajasthan]) of Mr. Sanjit 'Bunker' Roy (who is said to be Ms. Aruna Roy's husband) regularly receive many crores of rupees under FCRA from foreign sources routed via countries such as Tibet and Sierra Leone.
4) That it is very well known to Govt. of India and the MHA that large amounts of foreign exchange are flowing in to India for conversion of animist tribals to Christianity, especially in states such as Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh, and that radical Christian "priests" are actively inciting India's tribals to take up arms against the State, ie. LWEism also known as Naxalism, Maoism etc.
5) That Ms. Aruna Roy's husband actively runs massively foreign funded programs to train so-called "barefoot" doctors and "barefoot engineers". These illiterate unqualified depressed people are systematically brain-washed as agitators / technicians who go about fomenting disaffection against the Indian State and its institutions.
6) That Ms. Aruna Roy corruptly misused her status as a private (ie. "without salary to evade application of the Prevention of Corruption Act") NAC member to ensure that Ministries of Govt of India give huge funding to her husband's NGOs for the training of "barefoot" LWEs. Ms. Aruna Roy and her husband (who are only "humanities" graduates) have systematically ensured (through their proximity to Chairperson NAC and lobbying access thereby to critical Ministries) that the "Engineers Act/Bill" to regulate the qualifications and supervisory bodies to regulate the profession of Engineering is never passed. Thereby enabling this enterprising duo to carry on their hugely profitable private business of training "barefoot engineers" aka LWEs for some foreign natrions who openly finance them. It is also an open secret that Ms. Aruna Roy and her aforesaid husband were part of the move to tamper with the autonomy of the IITs, and also caused the arrest on 28.11.2011 of many IAC volunteers for raising slogans like "Desh ke yuvak yahaan hain, Rahul Gandhi kahaan hain ?" close to NAC office that day.
7) That when the concerned Intelligence / Investigative agencies communicated their inability to investigate the May 25 Chattisgarh massacre in the face of such High Profile persons being close to Hon''ble Chairperson NAC and being in a position to impede their free and unfettered investigations, Ms. Aruna Roy got convinced to "resign" from the NAC.
8) That Ms. Aruna Roy was replaced at the NAC by another Christian tribal's agitator in a tearing hurry and without any public procedure and/or public scrutiny being available or followed (as the IAC had requested vide my email dt. 29.05.2013 which was also addressed to the Cabinet Secretary by name).
9) That IAC apprehends the said hurried appointment of Ms Aruna Roy's replacement is to continue an unfinished agenda to de-Hinduise the Congress Party leadership in specific BJP ruled states. Hence IAC's request for urgent suo-moto disclosure.
In the circumstances, we repeat our request that all available information pertaining to procedure and terms for selection of members of the NAC is put into the public domain within 48 hours on Life or Liberty basis, as IAC is seriously interested in knowing how alleged/purported LWEs came to be appointed to NAC-I and NAC-II and if this was in any way responsible for deaths of so many citizens of India (with perhaps more to come).

Sirs,
Sub: RTI request under section 4 of RTI Act 2005 to be complied immediately.
Kindly treat this as a "Life or Liberty" application
I have come to know from the below mentioned NDTV link that there are now some vacancies for post of "Member" in the National Advisory Council and which post(s) I would like to formally apply to be considered for.
I am given to understand that the published qualification for the post is "professionals with diverse experience"
which I abundantly fulfill.
I would therefore be obliged to be urgently informed the procedure and application format (if any) to be considered.
I would also like to be urgently informed about the present prescribed salary and perquisites for the post, as I know for a fact that some corrupt members of NAC-I were misusing their posts (which was then an unpaid one) to lobby for foreign interests.
With best wishes
yours sincerely

Sub: Re: Aruna Roy bidding goodbye to NACSocial activist Aruna Roy resigns from Sonia Gandhi-led National Advisory Council
Social activist Aruna Roy has decided not to continue in the National Advisory Council, led by UPA chairman Sonia Gandhi, after her term expires on Friday.
Ms Roy has written a letter to Mrs Gandhi requesting that she should not be considered for another term of NAC that sets the social agenda for the government and the UPA Chairperson has accepted the request.
On her way out, Ms Roy criticised the government for not taking up recommendations of the council on minimum wages to workers under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA).

Dear Sirs,
It is clear that the diffrences between AAP and IAC are irreconcialable after S. Roy has articulated them a number of times mainly being the finanacial irregularities. Yet I believe certain decorum should be maintained in public uttrances.
Now that the 3 who were at one time integral part of the broad anti-corruption movement have parted ways, let each concentrate their energies on their core stength.
In due course of time people will judge their achievements.
On a broader scale, the civil society orgasnisation/forums are a divided house. There are reported to be more than 29000 NGOs working in difffrent fields on local,state level and national level. Majority of them are funded from indegenous funds but many are receiving foreign funds ever since India became in dependent The need of the hour is cooperation and collaboration among NGOs may be some kind of federation at State, National level. Till then the Govt. with the help from corporate world will keep the civil soiety movements divided and put them down.

scrupulously. The incident narrated in this subject shows the common

even understood the quality of leadership.. Leaders should be moral
