To improve governance of IGNOU & insitute credibility in governance , reforms & transformation of open university education

It is indeed a matter of great regret that when government is boasting to open more universities for higher education while looking to the experience to me at ignou especially at ahmedabad the credibility of such institutions it self is at stake. Even as per my observation not a single day i received any response on telephone for entire day,. If this is the scenario of public dealing i am thinking this experience itself should be ideal for me to select as case study for public administration.May i request your good self again to direct the concerned to confirm the same to facilitate to us to have study material from centre? It also equally astonishing that the institution which runs MCA like courses is unable to develop any such programmed to respond on net or online communication & enrollment.Your's Faithfully,Hirnesh Bhavsar Indeed it is a matter of great regret that even after more than 2 months post my application along with fees yet I have to receive any kind of confirmation in this regard. Not only has that None from regional centre ever bother to reply once. Even once I personally went at Ahmedabad to inquire where I was told that unless all the forms are being entered in to program it can not be ascertained. On my query what I came to know is about one to two crore of such draft/ pay order is to be credits in to the account of IGNOU. Indeed it is equally shocking & stunning too that this much huge amount is being remained in transit Thus IGNOU is losing monetary benefits in terms of interest per day to the tune of Rs. three to four thousand Rs. just for the sack of computer entry which can be done by hiring periodical person on contract basis too. If any professional organization and might have been there certainly that might have done so. Perhaps that is the secret of their success. & this is the factor why government organization is trailing. Or remaining far behind. any way now may I expect any development regarding my study.

. I have requested just for the confirmation of my payment of fee along with registrations for mine & my daughter respectively. Even on contacting telephonically y"day no body responded. At Ahmedabad. Even there is no such system like National institutions Upsc or alike from the site of whom one can verify the status by entering unique No. & also can know further development in this regard. At least when hefty fee has already been paid by the payee prop[er response should be given to them addressing their grievance. May I request your good self to look into o the matter & direct the concerned in this regard?

Irresoponible, non accountable administration of IGNOU the way to make transparent & accountable

Please carefully refer my complete mail in which right from application No. to payment & even enrollment No. given telephonically today by your centre are already mentioned fr4om which you can collect complete details of both applications out of which one is made online. Even though you are seeking details? This automatically prove your excuses to mislead higher ups diverting their attention.
I could not understand further which kind of details & what you are seeking?
This proves your reply evasive & vague purely in bureaucratic manner usually in government sector rather than professional approach with responsive administrative acumen accompanied by accountability with intention of solving problem or redress of grievance.
In your today's mail you have claimed of dispatching confirmation letters but not given the details when? by which mode? Whether upc/ Rpad/ speed post & when? with what outward No. & date?
Let me draw your kind attention again when by phone I tried to contact you on your mobile you in irritated manner told me that I should contact reception of centre for admission. When Right t to information act emphasizes on transparency & accountability with motive of held government & it's instrumentalities responsible to the governed your attitude is absolutely contradictory. I am simultaneously complaining the matter to human resource & personnel ministry of government of India with c.c. to H/E President of India too in this regard. & If required parliamentary question being raised on the credibility of the open university.
Coming to the point your staff told me that date is again extended up to 17th August so we will receive the confirmation in due course. Of course if necessary I can have the printout & tale conversation detail too from mobile company.
I again request you to send me the details I sought by mail application under RTI with the details of dispatch.
Also it seems ridiculous that in the era of E.Governance You are resorting to postal dispatch etc even after even after almost 4 months of application rather than putting entire details online arranging for students, study centre & university authority too to collect from site by using password or sending through mail. This will be not only speedy, time savvy. & paperless too but also economical & manipulation proof also.
I repeat the request to arrange to send bare minimum details to me as well as study centre so that rather than wasting my precious time in futile mail may use it for course completion in better manner.

Unfair trade practices & defective services on the part of government SBI & HDFC to counter

SBI HAS STARTED TO CHARGE MrS. 60 FOR ISSUE OF NEW CHEQUE BOOK. The reason given is the cheque book is being issued centrally & this is postage charge.
Actually when account is opened in to bank it is incumbent on the part of bank to provide cheque book & it is part of account service too because without that person can’t withdraw the amount Or make payment. Of course now a days Debit card is issued to the customer & separate charge annually is being levied by the bank for that also.
Actually these are noting but plundering. Tent amounts to cheating to consumers by the banks. To get the cheque book one has to go to the bank fill up the requisition form & than cheque book is sent at home Under the circumstances why the cheque book cant’ be issued by the branch it self. If bank wants centralize issue it can but not by passing the cost on consumers unnecessarily. By this way bank also desires that consumers may use less cheque transactions thus more unaccounted money less tax to government encouraging black money vicious circle.
Not to issue cheque book without levying any charge including postal charges is defective service on the part of bank under consumer protection act also. & also treated as unfair trade practice under MRTP ACT TOO.

Like wise HDFC SECURITY informed me that they have stopped to send hard copy of transaction statements to the customer of security trading. Now the security agency is not only broker but something more than that. If they say that they send mail in this regard think twice, only 2 to 3 % of the total population of India has such net facility. & Apart from that when agency is charging annual fee , periodical charges etc even under consumer act & contract act also agency is supposed to send paper copy to the consumer free of cost. Instead of that they have started to plunder by saying that they will charge extra money to send in hard form This is unfair trade practice also. Thus it should be made mandatory on the part of all security agencies too send quarterly & annual statement to all consumers without extra charge.

Rationalisation of new tax code

New tax code


Some what is heard from media about new tax code wherein all withdrawal is to be going to make taxable. Housing loan & other investment incentives are going to be withdrawn etc.
But before bringing such code we should think of present scenario.
If government wants to generate more & more tax more & more expenditure incurred on appropriate business, service, professional incidental should be allowed. Thus more money in to economy, circulation of money will keep the economy healthy too, giving impetus to the industry too. If all withdrawal kept taxable it may affect long turn saving rate also which is not good for banking sector as well as society & government as as a whole.
If long term gain or short term gain kept reinvested it should be exempted until rotated in particular financial year.
This kind of strategy may prevent corruptive practices also. E.g. If thought education which very expensive now a days, if expenditure on it is not allowed fully reimbursed certainly government & public servant will resort to corruption., while business & service, Professional community to black money.
Thus we must keep in mind all these factors at the time of bringing new code so as to incorporate all these in to it.

Defective service/ unfair trade practices on the part of public sector theway

Due to technical fault your entire broand band system was non functional on Dt. 30th to 31st July 09 I had lodged complaints also in this regard. Due this I was unable to utilize balance MB 150. Ultimately I can’t avail consideration against payment made to BSNL in advance.
This is defective service on the part of f BSNL Also it violates breach of contract by way of levying full charge & not rendering services Or consideration thus tent amount to cheating too.

BSNL IS FAILED TO MAINTAIN BALANCE OF CONVENIENCE & EQUITY BEFORE LAW ALSO. When I had complained earlier in this year for unusual consumption of MB without my actual use in a 2 hours consumption of almost 650 mbs. BSNL FILED my complaint citing reason that due to virus it may happen but use was same port thus I was penalized for no fault of mine & had to pay in the bill extra charges.
Now when due to fault on your part which is on the record are you going to reimburse me the payment of those lost 150 mbs or is BSNLgoing to give me credit of left 150 mbs on the last day of July to use it for next month?

After 62 years of Independence can we claim independent?

After 62 years of Independence can we claim independent?

If thought profoundly before 10th century people of India were treated as slaves of imperialism/ royal class / dynastic rule. After that slaves of Muslim rulers/ bad shahs. Than of colonial, French/ British rule etc.
In 1947 we claimed us independent & in 1950 we declared us as republic.
But if rewind or go in to past six decades of life passed min India looking to entire scenario can we claim ourselves free from slavery? This it self is a big question mark. & majority people will reply in negative. The reason end of British rule & on set of political & bureaucratic rule the rulers who can prove British good..
The manner in which These white wearers Of khadi clothes & successor of British officers in the form of Indian administrative service accompanied by government/ public servants , so called BABU DOM have started to plunder gullible public/ citizens in the name of administration & democracy is inimical , unique & matchless. The manipulation, corruptive practices & immoral unethical ways & means they have resorted seem such that even after century of independence people will not be able to free them or exorcise them. People have been trapped in to vicious circle of castes, racism, ethnics, status barrier, class, category, reservation, religion, & sectarian discrimination.
The rest is completed by bureaucracy by dominating governance in the name of multiple laws, acts, rules & orders.
Now these category has resorted to divide the society in to such a manner that from Vedic era & from the beginning of earth era i.e. eve & Adam the male female understanding in to our society was at least intact & exemplary where in the job of male class was to earn bread & that of women was to maintain house in order, nurture, nourishing children & taking care of family. Bringing women reservation bill This system is certainly going to collapse. Until now whatever reservation was there were inter cast & category now it is in the family itself. Naturally this is the act which will directly hurt the male society it’s ego & make them more insecure this will force the society to stop to think moral, Ethics, character, austerity etc. If we wants the society & family environment lovable & livable at least we should stop to make crack in to it by stopping this divide & rule policy in to family life until more than 50% of the population is from younger generation & rate of unemployment is also hovering to very high level. Otherwise let me pray to god to save the society.

To prevent corruptive practices in revenue, urban &city survey department

One of the way of corruption for city survey & stamp registrar is to enroll the property in to such revenue record.
Unfortunately law is not enacted properly in this regard. Daily lots of properties are being sold & purchased &especially by the builders to prospective purchasers. Builders are giving deeds that is also directly of land purchase, & than agreement to construct the property. When customer purchases availing bank loan etc managed by the nexus of builder, urban local body, revenue department & bankers he has no knowledge regarding complete titles of the property. When they attempt to get enrolled in to city survey some 12 to 13 documents again they insist out of which majority almost all might have been given at the time of passing a plan of building & than deed at stamp registrar. Though again fresh copy of, Na, 7/12 ,index, deed etc are insisted .\Why we should not have such act that every property seller is compelled to complete all these formalities along with deed it self & until the builder has fulfilled all these obligations the liability on the part of builder will be incomplete & liable to be treated as defective service.
Another issue for those properties still not enrolled on city survey record. The info pertains to particular plan should be accessible to city survey office from Non agricultural, town development of urban /;local body, stamp registrar etc & vice a versa to prevent the corruption. Even for single , minor papers these kind of running from pillar to post to holder of the property forced him into trap to vicious circle of corruption of city survey record. Which are compelled them to pay bribe even for absolute legal administrative job.

Wrong persons on right jobs the prime cause of miss governance

Wrong persons on right jobs the prime cause of miss governance

It has been seen commonly everywhere in government, local government & public sector undertakings that the selection of office bearers especially on administrative side of executives is not the right & appropriate one.In majority of the cases either the selection is being made on political calculations or by politicians themselves either as selectors or under the influence of politicians.

Even in case of Civil & administrative services of centre or state the scenario is same. Thus when such officers Or administrators are posted for multi faceted diversified jobs they fail to deliver targeted results other than political point of view. In majority cases it has been seen that civil or administrative cadre officers are believed that they are having expertise in every field & they can deal with every such situation but in actual practice it is miss conception & truly speaking an illusion. As per practical observation they are not having in depth or through legal & technical knowledge. & in many of the case their subordinate in hierarchy are having very good profound knowledge though the ego of such cadre officers or their selfish motive or their attitude of sub serving political demand prevent them from accepting facts & reality.

Even these cadre officers are found of lacking transparency & accountability too. which is inevitable for responsive governance. These are the officers who used to right on files bring up, or discuss & than if subordinates tries to put the fact they have been found of escaping responsibility & accountability. Even these cadre officers are found of such attitude that they seemed reluctant of righting what discussed & what is ultimate order? Thus if problem arise in future they can blame it subordinates & remain clean them selves.
Even in number of cases they have been found of lacking common legal knowledge without which it is impossible to run day to day administration.

Overall cadre officers are having tendency of pleasing their political masters to grab cream posting while & post retirement of service. Under the circumstances if even after 61 years of Independence & 59 years of republic India how one can expect good governance unless & until professional approach is being adopted for selecting administrators?

Democratic & republican governance to be metamorphosed/ transformed to sustain the high values cherished in the constitution of India. an essence of

Much has been published in print media & discussed in electronic media about on going parliamentary elections likely to completed & results of which is in waiting.
The conclusion is likely fractured verdict, alliances, dominance of smaller & regional parties, & all leading to hung parliament.
India is facing similar situation since last four elections. The reason absence of major national political parties at central level., Their power hunger, To achieve the target of power by hook or crook. Putting aside all morals, values & ethics.

If analyzed the current scenario wherein majority of political parties are forced to nominate criminals, culprits & social evils in the elections. Now a days it seems that it becomes fashion amongst parties to put in fray such candidates
Voters or elect orals are compelled to elect any of the worst. This is indeed pathetic situation for more than 1.4 billion people of India.
If we wants to exorcise the country from all these evils & negativity now it becomes inevitable for us to change our election pattern from grass root.
First & foremost thing to nominate the candidate by the party should never been as per whims & fancy of the party unlike today where they are imposed by the party. But all the political parties must propose their candidate to they wants to nominate for ensuing elections Then Voters should have a choice to select by public debate like the system in USA. Thus from the same political party also there may be more then one choices from whom electoral will select & who ever is selects only that candidate will represent the party in election. Here voters must have a choice either to reject one or all. Let the people have their voice in the selection of candidate party wise before final election. This will avoid current situation of imposition of candidate by party. Also in current system in political parties there is hierarchy thus candidate, it’s political agent, office bearers, & party workers who makes desperate efforts to make their candidate victorious & in lieu of which the expect that the winner candidate on getting power get their work done whether legal or illegal with the influence & power of the candidate through party or otherwise.
Thus motive behind efforts of every one in party cadre is also ulterior & selfish. If candidate is being obliged by the party workers in elections obviously one has to compensate the party workers by these ways. \If the selection pattern it self changed radically & selected by people after public debate, party policies, ideology 7 caliber, competency of the candidate than victorious candidate in power or otherwise can courageously refuse to oblige party workers to surrender them for illegal or out of turn & out of way work. & if this formula works than & than only voters can expect moral, ethical ideological politics & governance too.
To bring this kind of changes we must amend the constitution by having only major two or three political parties only abolishing smaller & independents to blackmail or pressurize any kind of alliance. If necessary fundamental rights may be restricted to implement this.
And the e last but not the least Rather than parliamentary form of governance presidential form of governance on USA pattern should be adopted to make the president & governance more accountable. Unlike today’s accountable to parliament in technical form but in practice & actual more loyal to party.

The manner in which today’s parties are functioning very remote possibility is seemed to pass this kind of amendment looking to the vested interest of the parties dismal chances of any unanimity seems in this regard. & To overcome this problem referendum Or plebiscite should be obtained

Infation, Bank rate cuts & prime landing rate cute are not corrosponding to eah other. Not refecting true picture of economy

Over a period in post recession period RBI has slashed bank, repo & reverse repo rates to almost 2006 level while prime landing rates have been kept intact. Which directly affects general public. What ever rate cut announced is benefiting to the banks. But that has not been pass on to consumers. If PLR cut will be there banks will be supposed to cut rate. Also many banks have announced rate cut in new loans but why discriminatory treatment to existing borrowers who are instrumental in keeping economy going on healthy. If this kind of treatment will be continued for longer period it will have negative impact on recovery & repayment count. Which will have direct negative impact on economy. My another point is inflation rat shown to near 0 level while if compared with consumer goods people are supposed to borrow day to day to meet every day expenditure are not proportionately reduced. Thus reduction in inflation seems nothing but an eyewash. unless & until inflation & consumer goods have corresponding effect economy is not going to reflect true picture.
