Decentralisation - panacea to effective administration - for surat municipal corporation

Decentralisation is one of the key factor of successful administration. Even across the globe we have witnessed this. Like USA population less than six times of Gujarat, states 50 , Australia population 40% less than the Gujarat , six states, Gujarat 25 districts & 226 talukas. ours is a federal state. Looking all these Don't You think that in past two years where ever panchayat, nagar panchayat areas have been merged in to palikas, municipal corporation , further decentralisation of municipal administration in sub division level or zone level should be. Ahmedabad, Baroda, Surat have already witness the success story of these kind of decentralisation in the past in post merged ares. Even though after newly merged area there does not seems any movement of this kind of decentralisation of municipal administration. Obviously this step creates own-ness amongst people, fixes responsibilities of administrators, brings transparency, & accountability. While if it is not ao power remains centralised like feudal system or fiefdom, result, red tapism, Babushahi. Naturally existing coterie of bureaucracy will never prefer to loose power at local administration. It is human tendency too that none likes power sharing. Will State administration look in to this seriously & direct the municipal administration to act in this regard?
Also the manner in which more & more expectations of people are being increased for civic services Dont You think that now municipal admionstration too have more senior posts including couple od additional, Joint municipal commissioners too.

Fighting terrorism in true spirit - essential requirments

Sir,Every time we face any terrorism we are talking of fighting it. Lots of debate & discussions will be there for couple of days, political mudslinging, allegation & counter allegation, blame game & episode will be forgotten. Indeed if we wants to check, control & wipe out terrorism & crimes the lone thing we have to do is to give free hand to our law & order maintaining agencies/ authorities including police & security forces. Let them develop their own network, information & intelligence links, Let them utilise in a best manner to safeguard national & public interest. For this political will becomes inevitable. Rather than that until now all these agencies seemed utilized for vested political interest to settle political scores whether at state Or central. Even the persons at the helm of authority or agency are also dumped accordingly rather than their merit. Under the circumstances if we are expecting effective public & national security & safety that may be day dream until the system is not improved & right person with adequate autonomy & authority with free hand, without any external meddling are placed on right jobs.

Managing temples & pilgrimage effectively from security pioint of view to prevent stampede & othe rcalamity

At every temple & pilgrimage overcrowding, long ques are common. Major reason seems to keep the temples close for couple of hours. or for to shut it periodically for one or other reason. resultant pilgrims & people visited there have to stand in Que for number of hours especially in festival season more.
The reason given by temple authority or temple trust many of which being managed by government board are for bathing, breakfast or lunch or rest of the god. In spiritual terms if ponder, The almighty who is managing entire universe need not to take rest & if so how the universe may run? The reasons given or raised are merely looks silly & ridiculous. The prime motive behind keeping temples closed for different interval is nothing but to glorify the magnanimity of the pilgrimage at the cost of precious human lives & at the risk of our cultural heritage along with ancient monument. But why government & temple authorities are ignoring security factor? The more crowd , more will be the chances of stampede Or calamity whether man made or natural. Thus if temples are kept open for continuous 12 to 15 hours no any kind of overcrowding will be noticed & Chances of any calamity can be rule out. should Government not consider this seriously when terrorist attacks are also looms large?
