Can the opposition unite?

Telangana CM K Chandrashekhar Rao and Bihar CM Nitish Kumar have expressed the possibility of opposition unity for a ‘BJP mukt bharat’. It’s true that in the present situation, it is very difficult to vanquish BJP unless the opposition parties unite. But opposition unity appears to be a far-fetched dream and the BJP leaders must be really laughing up their sleeves while KCR, Nitish express such a possibility. Unless a miracle happens, the opposition is most unlikely to unite. Did opposition unite during President, Vice president polls ? Who will be the leader of the united opposition ?

Rising Stars in bureaucracy

The rising stars need not be the best performers. Many really dedicated officers are often quiet workers. They do their job honestly and efficiently but not many are aware because they are not good at or do not believe in publicity. They work and deliver out of conviction and a strong sense of duty towards the people they are meant to serve. e.g. a Collector for the people of his/her district. Education Secretary to improve the conditions and standards in the institutions in his charge, etc. They are silent workers. Very often the best.
