Supreme Court should announce reserved verdicts in time-bound period

Supreme Court should announce reserved verdicts in time-bound period

addtop, TOP STORIES, समाचार
It is quite often that judgements by benches including Division and larger ones at Supreme Court are kept reserved for several months. System should be that various benches of Supreme Court may compulsorily announce judgements in a time-bound period of say within three months after last date of hearing or before retirement of any bench-member having heard the case. Delayed judgements after competition of hearing add fuel to fire of notorious aspect -Justice Delayed is Justice Denied. At times, such delayed judgements result in costly and time-consuming re-hearings in case any of the bench-member retires from the post. Supreme Court website must have a link providing list of reserved judgements clearly mentioning last date of proceedings in the case. Since supreme Court has several long vac...

Abolish legal-size paper: Supreme Court should take initiative

TOP STORIES, समाचार
Presently A-4 size paper (29.5 cms x 21 cms) is most commonly used size of paper-sheets. All photocopiers used in homes and offices are mostly equipped to handle this size of paper-sheets only. But there is a distinct size of legal paper-sheets for filing and use in courts which is 5 cms longer at 34.5 cms x 21 cms. Courts should do away with British-era practice, and allow only A-4 size paper-sheets till Union government works out for a new standardised paper-size based on metric-units. Rather concept of legal-size paper should be altogether abolished. System will be user-friendly and people will not have to rush outside for photo-copying bigger sized legal-papers presently used and allowed in courts. However colour-code of paper to be used in courts can be different like green is used in...

राज्य सरकार के लोकायुक्त कानून न बनाने पर होगा आंदोलन !

addtop, BREAKING NEWS, समाचार
लोकपाल लोकायुक्त कानून संसद के दोनों सदनों ने 17 दिसंबर और 18 दिसंबर 2013 को पास किया है। 01 जनवरी 2014 को कानून बन गया। 16 जनवरी 2014 को गॅझेट निकाला है। लेकिन केंद्र सरकार लोकपाल कानून का अंमल नहीं कर रही है। लोकायुक्त कानून लोकपाल कानून बनने के बाद एक साल के अंदर हर राज्योंने करना है। ऐसा कानून कह रहा है। लेकिन लोकपाल कानून बनकर 2013 से आज 2018 तक पांच साल बीत गए है। फिर भी राज्य सरकार लोकायुक्त कानून नही बना रहीं है। इसलिए कार्यकर्ताओंने अपने अपने राज्यों में आंदोलन करना होगा। मै 30 जनवरी 2019 को महाराष्ट्र राज्य मे लोकायुक्त कानून बने इसलिए मेरे गांव रालेगणसिद्धी में आंदोलन कर रहा हूं।   देश में बढते भ्रष्टाचार को रोकथाम लगे इसलिए 16 अगस्त 2011 में दिल्ली के रामलीला मैदान पर लोकपाल लोकायुक्त कानून की मांग को लेकर आंदोलन हुआ था। उस आंदोलन में देश की जनता रास्ते पर उतर गई थी। तत्क...

NCW rightly issues notice to Congress President for his unthoughtful remarks on a lady Union Defence Minister

addtop, BREAKING NEWS, समाचार
National Commission for Women NCW rightly took sue-motto cognizance by sending notice to President of largest opposition-party for his unthoughtful remarks towards Indian Defence Minister just for her being a lady. Union Defence Minister is dutybound to put before Parliament stand of government on matters relating to her ministry. Unfortunately such childish remarks are coming from a person whom his party-men dream for being next Prime Minister of India. It is noteworthy that not even a single person from his party came forward either to support or oppose him for such remarks which rather should have been condemned by Chairperson of UPA alliance who also happens to be his mother. India is proud for having a powerful woman as Prime Minister of the country who was no one other than gra...

10-percent Reservation for Poor Upper Cast covering 90-percent from General Category

समाचार
It refers to government-decision favoured generally by opposition parties but only in principle regarding 10-percent reservation for Poor Upper Cast covering roughly 90-percent of people from General category with parameters defined for getting reservation-benefit being as high as household-income above rupees eight lakhs per annum, agricultural land less than 5 acres, residences less than 1000 square-feet and residential plot less than 100 square yards in notified municipal area and 200 square yards in non-notified municipal area. If central government is really sincere about Economically Weaker Section EWS of society, these parameters need to be made realistic. Otherwise proposed 10-percent quota should be doubled to at least 20-percent. However proposed policy is not likely to be str...

Time-capsule buried at Indian Science Congress reminds of one buried during emergency-era of 1975-77 with distorted history

Time-capsule carrying also a laptop, a smartphone, a drone, VR glasses and other items of present era buried on campus of Lovely Professional University at Phagwara on occasion of 106th Indian Science Congress held on 04.01.2019 to be opened after 100 years, reminds of a time-capsule containing too many items and a history-sheet buried deep inside the ground by the then central government headed by Indira Gandhi in emergency-era of 1975-77 with totally distorted historical facts in front of historic Red Fort in Delhi. However subsequent Janta Party government headed by Morarji Desai having come into power put that time-capsule out to save future generation from distorted historical facts as per requirement of Nehru-Gandhi family. Present central government can think about some similar t...

Officers and staff of Central Information Commission CIC deserve full compliments for fulfilling commitment of Chief Information Commissioner towards successfully achieving almost a total paperless working as per ambitious government-plan for e-governance. It was nice presentation on 09.01.2019 by CIC-team at CIC-Bhawan New Delhi to explain in detail about the new paperless system with photographic comparison of old and new system where old system with full junk of files is now replaced by paperless working tables not only for Commissioners but for complete CIC-staff.

Award-money over match-money with hefty salary to cricketers on series-win over Australia

Award-money over match-money with hefty salary to cricketers on series-win over Australia

समाचार
Board for Control of Cricket in India BCCI has announced award-money of rupees fifteen lakhs extra as award money in addition to equal amount of match-money to each of the cricketers having played in recently concluded series with Australia where India won the series. All this is in addition to a very hefty annual salary-package of upto rupees seven crores per cricketer and life-time heavy pension after their retirement from cricket paid by BCCI. It is absolutely unfair to create such a class-distinction in society where cricketers earning otherwise also through their costly appearance in advertisements and business-income are paid so heavily from BCCI funded through public-craze where cricket has become religion for people. There should be an upper-limit of salary-package for BCCI whic...
Railway Minister should stop dreaming about ‘No tipping’ theory in trains

Railway Minister should stop dreaming about ‘No tipping’ theory in trains

समाचार
It refers to Railway Minister having sweet dreams of No-Tip era in trains with his announcement of some steps to prevent over-charging of food like free food-supply in case no bill is given. But in practice, all this is not at all practical. Only and best remedy is to replace food-serving by sale of packaged food by giving some nominal sale-commission to serving railway-staff. It is indeed very insulting that railway-staff towards end of journey start begging for tips even from foreign tourists which harms image of nation. It is beyond understanding how dream-steps of Railways can practically check begging tips by railway-staff that too at a time when even Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs legalizes tips by allowing service-charge levied in restaurant-bills. Scope of Indian Railway Cat...
