27.11.2011 was Sunday SP Proceeded to his native from
13. As
per the local reports, from the date of
his joining as SPOs on adhoc arrangement he had n’t stayed in HQ on
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Every week he proceeded to his native
on Friday night or day before holiday night by 1915 hours from Salem
It is noted in his diary
that he attended office work. But he has
not signed in any files on the above dates. This can be verified and confirmed .
After his assumption as regular SPOs, on 5th December, 2011
Shri.A.Sundarajan continuously stayed in
Sura mangalam IQ unofficially, and claimed HRA for the month
of December 2011.
With such
charges loading on him, having
got fear with the Local Union, he is in the habit of threatening the staff and
issuing Rule 14 and 16 charge sheets, for petty reasons, unmindfully.
Hence, our Circle Union requests the PMG, WR to intervene in this matter immediately, so as to make high level enquiry
on the charges, and to
plug the leakage / to
close the siphon , discharging the Govt. money.
It is further requested
that , he may
kindly be shifted immediately, in
order to prevent tampering of records
and threatening of
the witnesses.
Expecting your kind
and justified action and a
line in reply.
Thanking you Sir,
With regards,

CIRCLE SECRETARY
INCENTIVE OF Rs.50/- PER PASS PORT DELIVERY TO POSTMAN
Passport office to work on Saturday, Sunday to clear
backlog 22 June 2012
To ensure
prompt delivery of passports, the postal department has been roped in.
In a special briefing to TOI, Raghavendra Shastry, adviser to
external affairs minister S M Krishna, gave details of fresh measures that are
expected to address the concerns raised by the people - and reported by this
newspaper to help make the new passport application process smoother and
transparent.
The ministry has also reviewed the online appointment
process, and from Friday, an additional 30% slots are being released. This will
take the number of daily slots in the capital from 1,650 to 2,050. Moreover,
appointments will now be given for up to 30 days instead
of 15. "This way, we believe we will be able to process 6 lakh
applications in the country this year," said chief passport officer and
joint secretary in MEA Muktesh Kumar Pardeshi.
"We have taken the suggestions given by TOI seriously
and want people to know that we are working hard on them. There has been a huge
backlog of applications due to the holiday rush,
which is why we are having this passport mela. MEA is doing it for the first
time in the country. This will help us smoothen the service in about six weeks
from now," said Shastry.
"We will entertain walk-ins only on weekends. And people
need not form queues early in the morning. They can come anytime after
10am," said Basant K Gupta, additional secretary, consular passport &
visa division, MEA.
The ministry has reiterated its promise of revisiting its
website. "There has been a lot of confusion over the passport application
website. The older site, www.passport.gov.in is no longer functional but people
have been visiting it. Therefore, we are going to redirect traffic from there
to our functional portal, www.passportindia.gov.in. We are also going to prepare
a fresh list of documents required for applying under various categories. There
will be no ambiguity in %the process anymore," Gupta said.
Does this mean that there will be no more surprise demands
for additional documents by PSKs? "Yes. TCS staff will no longer decide
what documents are needed. Now, only government officials will check if all
documents are in place and if anything else is required," said Gupta.
So far, the applicants who were turned back by PSKs for lack
of documents had to try their luck again with %the online appointment system to
book a slot. "This will not happen anymore. If there is any requirement of
a document, an applicant will be given three days to return with the
papers," Pardeshi said.
To ensure prompt delivery of passports, the postal
department has been roped in. "The postman will be given an incentive of
Rs 50 per delivery. He will call up or send an SMS before coming to ensure that
the passport is delivered to the person to whom it is issued," said
Raghavendra Shastry, advisor to minister of external affairs.
He said that the system will be implemented across the
country and S M Krishna will personally write
to all state chief ministers to ensure implementation of the revised rules.
Apart from Delhi, passport melas will be held at the
following places: RPO, Koramangla, and PSKs at Sai Arcade, Lalbagh, Mangalore
and Hubli in Bangalore.
A new era blasts
off
Private space flight
raises the question: Can private companies improve other government services?
The successful return
of the Dragon-X space cargo capsule recently shows that the era of private
commercial space flight has begun.
The unmanned capsule
was built and operated by Space Exploration
Technologies (Space-X), a 10-year-old company owned by Paypal founder and
billionaire Elon Musk.
Dragon-X carried 500 kg of supplies and equipment to the International Space
Station and returned with about 650 kg of retired equipment and scientific
samples.
It used to be the
accepted wisdom that space flight was the province of governments: the resources
(money and manpower) needed for space missions were so expensive that only big
federal agencies could afford them. Space-X's Musk has turned this idea on its
head.
The National Aeronautics
and Space Administration (Nasa) itself has sought to move space flight to
private companies in recent years. Its space shuttles flew their last missions
in 2011; American astronauts currently board Russian and European spacecraft to
go to the International Space Station. Space-X is vying for a $1.6
billion Nasa contract
for 12 supply missions to the International Space Station. It also has plans to
start ferrying astronauts into orbit. Nor is it the only one. There is healthy
competition among private companies to see who gets there first.
In the 1960s, space
became a theatre of the Cold War as superpowers United States and
the USSR United
States
Four decades later,
amidst a weak economy, there is no appetite among American politicians for the
big taxpayer-funded spending Nasa's manned space flights need. Russia India and China
Space has gone back to
being the province of obsessed dreamers — which is where it all started. Early
rocketry and space flight pioneers such as Robert Goddard and
Hermann Oberth were ins-pired by science fiction. They conducted rocketry
experiments as kids and constantly thought about how humans could get rid of
our earthly shackles. Few who knew them as kids probably thought their dreams
would be realised. Yet, man not only went into orbit, but walked on the Moon in
the 20th century.
Today, Musk wants to
retire on Mars,
and Virgin Galactic's Richard Branson plans
to offer space tourism flights. Film director and explorer James Cameron has
announced he is interested in mining asteroids for precious metals.
Private entrepreneurs
have always advanced new technologies, even if they are not the original
inventors. Look at the history of the railway. A working steam locomotive was
developed by Richard Trevithick in Cornwall ,
years before George Stephenson built
the Stockton and Darlington
railway. But it was Stephenson who was entrepreneurial enough to make trains
successful.
English
inventor Joseph Swan constructed a working incandescent light bulb years before
Thomas Alva Edison, who is widely credited with its invention. Swan even set up
a com-pany to market his invention. But it was
Private entrepreneurs
can often reduce costs drastically. Musk has estimated that Space-X can launch
one kg of payload into orbit at about one-ninth Nasa's cost.
At this point, it is
still early days for private commercial space flight. But there is no doubt that
we are witnessing the beginning of a new era, when private corporations will
make space their own turf. Space-X is working on creating manned space taxis
next. While Came-ron's avowed desire to mine asteroids may sound more in the
realm of science fiction than science fact, it might indeed be technically
feasible (although the jury is still out on the economic benefits, because any
precious metals mined this way would be plentiful enough to see their prices
drop).
Science fiction
author Arthur C Clarke predicted
shortly before his death in 2008 that commercial spacecraft would become a
reality within the decade. Space-X was making plans then. He also told me that
he believed thousands would travel into orbit in the next 50 years, and then
people would go to the Moon and beyond on private spacecraft.
It is worth asking what
private entrepreneurs could do for other large public enterprises. For
instance, could a private enterprise improve rail service in India
And what about India India
When one thinks about
it, there are probably only a few things that governments should always do.
National security is of course the obvious example. Health monitoring and
national healthcare may be another. Most things that we have thought were the
province of governments can be done just as well by public-private partnerships
— or just private enterprises. By sending a rocket to space, Space-X has just
proven it to us.

Conf/ 07 /2012 Dated:25.06.2012
Dear Comrades,Conf/ 07 /2012 Dated:25.06.2012
The campaign programme chalked out by the National Executive to ensure the successful implementation of March to Parliament on 26th July, 2012 is progressing well. Apart from the arrangements made by the major affiliates for the boarding of participants at Delhi on 25thand 26th, Confederation CHQ has made independent arrangements meant for those comrades who are members of smaller affiliates. The State Committees, who take care of these comrades are requested to indicate the number of comrades for whom the Confederation CHQ is to take responsibility so that allotment for accommodation for each State could be made and intimated.
Many comrades have demanded the updating of the brief on each demand included in the charter. Due to paucity of time, this could not be done . We may be able to do so only after the 26th July, programme of March to Parliament. In the meantime , the affiliates may please inform us as to the status of the functioning of the JCM Departmental Councils/Regional Councils , especially the date of the last meeting of the Departmental Council. We have been informed that the next meeting of the National Anomaly Committee would be held on 17th July,2012. The telegram campaign undertaken by the affiliates of the Confederation had its salutary impact. We must continue our endeavour to ensure that the Departmental Councils regularly meet and its composition as at the beginning is maintained.
We have prepared a comparative chart of the price of 14 commodities, which go into the computation of minimum wage. Placed there-under is the computation of the Minimum wage on the basis of the prices of the requisite articles as in January, 2012. It could be seen there-from that while the prices on an average registered an increase of 152% the DA compensation had only been 65%. This fact may kindly be used to bring home the necessity of revision of wages immediately.
With greetings,
Yours rraternally,
