Change Noida to Atalgarh

Still in Shimla ... got the news of Vajpayee ji's sad demise... today I meet my Respected Friend... Retired Senior Bureaucrat...at his home. We sit in the Balconey and we remember Vajpayee.

 

Me: Sad ...  very sad.... what a Man...

Respected Friend:  Sadly the same Durbaari Media that attacked Vajpayee ji  when he was in power... in fact there was glee amongst them... when the 13 day old Vajpayee Government fell..... today behaving like Vajpayee fans...they even made fun of him when he had his knee surgery...

M: Now they are praising him.... but not without adding that he said good things about Nehru... Indra and Rajiv...looks like they are paying tributes to Nehru, Indra and Rajiv...

RF: We are old enough to have witnessed their criticism  of Vajpayee ji in the past...now one Durbaari finds memories in Whisky and the other in Steaks...poor dolts can't even remember him without adding their spins...and lies!!

M: Vajpayee Government achieved a lot...Pokhran....

Golden quadrilateral....Telecom revolution.....Profitable BSNL

......8.4% GDP growth Kudankalam plant...Delhi metro.....Education for all

Modern airports..

RF: And despite Kargil.... Earthquake, Kandahar, Godhra, Parliament  attack, US sanctions..still 8%+ Growth....

M: Congress often says RSS did not take part in India's Independence struggle...Vajpayee ji participated in Quit India movement in 1942 and was jailed by British for 24 days in Juvenile Barracks of Agra Jail. He was just 16 years old.

RF: I recall Sonia had called Vajpayee ji a Gadaar....she also called Modi Mauth ka Saudagar and much more... Durbaaris trying to show Vajpayee was upset with Modi on 2002...he had said he would nibhao Raj Dharma and added this is what Modi was doing...

M: And if you compare 1984 and 2002 you will deduce Modi did nibhao Raj Dharma.....  but despite all the work Vajpayee Government did ... why did they lose in 2004. ...

 

RF: Over Confidence....did not do enough for Rural India...

M: So for 2019 Modi needs to ensure there is confidence ...but no over confidence ....should not take Voter for granted...and he's  done a lot for Rural India....

RF: Practically every condolence message on Vajpayee ji's sad demise  on Twitter .... ends with RIP.... RIP or Rest In Peace doesn't  apply to those who are cremated... applies only for those who are Buried ...

M: Sir RIP in case of Hindus means Return Is Possible... as Hindus believe in rebirth..

RF: Apart from a Giant if a Leader...will always remember Vajpayee the Poet... Haar nahin manunga, Raar nahin á¹­hanuá¹…ga, Kaal ke kapal par

Likhta hooá¹…, miá¹­ata hooá¹…,

Geet naya gaata hooá¹…,

Geet naya gaata hooá¹…....

M: Jeeth ke gaye....kya pathaa RIP ho jaye .... aur ek nayaa geeth gaane ke liye waapas aa jaye...

RF: Kya pathaa.... yeh toh Oopar waale ka khel hai...

 

We stand in silence for some time ..... my Respected Friend then sees me off at the door ...

DEBATE

Have the bureaucrats become slaves of their political masters for petty gains ?

An MP cadre senior IAS officer has recently created a hornet’s nest among bureaucrats by publicly criticising the civil servants saying that they have let their spine rot and say only what their masters want to hear for the sake of few ‘privileges’. What the civil servants across the nation think about the above charge on bureaucrats.

IEC- Bridging Govt to People communication effectively
  
Information Education & Communication (IEC) is  a platform to create grass-roots level awareness in different Government Departments by using local language and dialect.
 
IEC is the most important tool to target the audience for various welfare campaigns as well as guage behavioural changes in the masses.
 
IEC acts as connect between Government and grass roots level people and it is most useful in Health , Agriculture, Road Safety , Transport & Panchayat Raj as well as Rural development.
 
Social Welfare and both State flagship programs and Central government schemes impact on vote bank as 70 per cent of the population of country stays in rural belt . It is the most important tool in the democracy and  influences the vote bank for better choice  and better selection of government.
 
IEC influences the community , groups etc besides increasing knowledge and ensures feedback mechanism apart from facilitating interaction and facilitating a two-way dimensional medium with human element .
 
Being inexpensive, all media platforms-- be it Outdoor , Electronic are under one umbrella using cost effective mobile vans with artists ( Kalajatha Cultural Procession ) which reaches homes and engages people with spontaneous response.
 
 IEC can be more popularly used in ‘Swachch Bharat Abhiyan' (Gramin) for Open Defecation Free (ODF) campaign and project sustainability.
 
 IEC can also help with total sanitation campaign besides road safety by spreading awareness on dangers of drunken driving , not using seat belt and rash driving etc .
 
 The IEC platform can generate information on Labour group insurances , health programs for Below Poverty Line (BPL) families as well as Above Poverty Line (APL) families, Agriculture Capacity Building, Social Welfare Utilization of schemes ,  Scholarships and Mid Day meal schemes etc .
 
 As regards the 'Swachch Bharat Abhiyan' ( Urban ) ,  the significance of  IEC comes in helping to generate awareness about own flagship programs of State Governments and Central Government mainly that of Hon. Prime Minster’s welfare schemes .
 
 The other opportunity is creating employment for local artists in each and every State .
 
 The IEC  Kalajatha mobile vans with artists can make the audience to root the matter in entertainment by Nukkad Natak and Puppet shows with interaction and feedback .One more advantage is this creates huge number of employment of artists across the country as our concept is mobile van with artists and even for drivers and technicians.
