CM should work in public interest

DEBATE (1)

Bachelor CMs and Bachelor Babus

DEBATE(1)
People have started talking about plus points of having bachelor chief Ministers. What about bachelor babus - - particularly at higher level? But then we should keep in mind the fact that being bachelor does not always mean being single.

Roads not affected by flood waters from any overflowing water body
Even in city, roads not affected by flood waters from any overflowing water body. The flooding occurs for 2 reasons : 1)the Storm water drain ports are blocked by residents while making Ramps in front of their gates. This again is due to raising the ground level of their house well above road level due to the constant fear of road level increasing over the years due to the repeated black topping by GCC w/o SCRAPPING the old road surface. & 2)Many house owners have No RWH (rain water harvesting) & the runaway rain water from their terraces floods the road.

They are successful because they are free from family pressure. They do not compromise with certain things.

Everything in GoI be transparent
I agree with Subhash Sirivastava. In 16 years India is struggling with the fact that which organization falls under RTI which not, this is intentional. Best would be if everything in GoI including NGOs trusts, political parties be transparent. Everything should be clearly depicted on their official websites. Even private sector too should follow the same.

Devote their energises to public service

DEBATE (1)
These CMs have no diversion or not any claimant of their valuable time. They can thereby devote their mental and physical energies to public service.

No diversion

DEBATE(1)
Bachelors have no diversion, they are focused. They have no interest in materialistic world, so hardly corrupt. They are not interested in giving unfair advantage to relatives rather want to show their mettle.

Bachelor Chief Ministers can be available round the clock for the public welfare. Bachelors can give more time than married.

CIC giving orders contradictory to their own previous orders
The CIC has been giving a host of orders which are contradictory to their own previous orders or to the orders of other benches. The rationale of the order is not clear in many cases. If public money is used in the establishment of an organisation or the running of an organisation, it is a Public Authority under section 2(h) of the RTI Act. Surprisingly, the authorities responsible for implementing the RTI Act are taking a twisted interpretation, depending upon who the individual is who is seeking the information. Sometimes, it depends on which is the organisation answerable for the RTI Application. Even after 16 years of RTI Act being in force, we are still fighting about whether an organisation is covered under the ambit of the RTI Act. God help RTI

I don't buy this theory. I am of the view that there are numbers of Chief Ministers who fared well being married in this country.

CBIC violating Transfer - Posting Policy
CBIC has not been transferring officers out of station for the last two years, may be due to corona. The officers of Batches 2008 onwards are posted in the same stations for the last 13 to 14 years. Officers who have joined as AC in 2008 are JCs now and on Jan 1, 2022 will become Addl. Commissioners, are continuing in the same stations, specially big metro cities, for last 13 to 14 years. Some have managed postings in Directorates, so that their tenure in that particular metro city is exempted, so that they may remain posted in the same metro after their tenure in Directorates is over. This is very dangerous situation, which is breeding corruption. It is high time PMO, FM and Revenue Secretary, look into this issue and nip this corruption, which is being done by CBIC, in violation of Transfer - Posting Policy.

True, one CM having a family will somehow or the other commit mistake and indulge in corruption.

Family makes you a balanced person

Family is not a liability. Has nothing to do with work delivery or integrity. Rather makes you a balanced person.

Foreign agencies keen to destabilise India will continue to provoke farmers
There are vested interests behind farmers’ agitation. Govt may agree to all their further demands but some parties and foreign agencies who are keen to destabilise India will keep on fanning the fire

With no family burden all these politicians devote full time in the state politics. Personally nobody can raise finger on their integrity.
