A story heard when I was child

The story is that there was one samant and one dacoit. The Samant was very brave but very kind hearted. He had a beautiful horse that the dacoit liked.  However the dacoit was fully aware that he cannot fight and win over that horse from that Samant as he was very brave but still he wanted that horse. What he did was that he dressed in the guise of very poor and ill man and sat on the road from where that samant used to go. On seeing such weak and ill man, samant got down from the horse and asked him, what has happened and can he be of some help to him. Seeing this that the samant fell for his trap, he spoke in very frail voice that if he could leave him at nearby Doctor. Hearing this that kind hearted man said why not and helped him to get him on the horse. The moment that dacoit sat on the horse, he took the rein and started the horse.  Seeing this the kind hearted man called and requested him to stop for a while. The dacoit stopped and then the Samant told him that he can take the horse but should not tell anyone about how you took this horse from me because people will stop helping people who might actually be in dire need of help. 

lessons taught by life

Last three years have taught me more than I had learnt in my entire life. I have seen people and relationships getting changed with time and utility. The mentality of people using relationship for their benefits and throwing them when you don't need them was so naked that I lost faith in family and relationships. I don't know but its going to take a while when I will again get back my faith in such institutions.

PPP in health sectors

The true PPP in Health Sector these days is Profit Proliferation Partnership.  At the end of the day who is deriving most benefit out of this partnership are the private players. They use government money to stablise and create the brand image of their facility in the initial years when the profits are less as the trust of clients is less.  Once they reach a comfortable level of their profit generation, they start finding faults with the Government and wish to snap their ties so that they could go into total profit generation. 

Rahul's interview with Arnab

The simplicity and innocense was what unmistakably visible during the entire interview.  He may not be shrewed but he is unlike these day politicians which is the best thing I like about him.

Opposition for public health care facilities

There is continuous effort on part of private players to oppose strengthening of public health facilities in urban areas so as to monopolies the healthcare service delivery system. They have their friends in media, politicians and beaurocratic circles with the help of whom they influence the move at its formation stages. They are very proactive as this has an impact on their very profitable business. Their penetration in places who are entrusted with policy formulation is so deep rooted that no normal person can oppose them. May God save India.

what ails our Health System

There is lot of presence of Private sector in urban areas but can't be utilized by majority of urban population as these facilities are there to make only profit and they don't want to do social service. On top of it government don't want to put any price regulations on such establishments. I am really surprised why all industries have maximum retail price based on the input plus profits but in case of hospitals there is no such thing. I don't know why? Its agreed that doctor's professional fee could vary but what about tangible infrastructure inputs like usage of OT during surgery. I don't know how when OT is being used 10 or more operations per day, charging more than a lakh per patient is right. How much recovery is required for a room i.e. OT. Its a room with equipments that is not changed after every surgery. Disposable used during surgery are charged separately and billed to user. Nobody wants to bring price regulations to this sector. Not difficult to guess why?

Sensational Media

Of late I don't feel like watching T.V. Either they are talking about rape or what a particular politician has commented. Also the way the news is presented, I have serious reservations. The news is presented with caste and religion angle. The victim is victim irrespective of caste or religion and is an Indian. You are providing people to look at it from either caste angle or from religion angle.
 

Dharna

Even God is not with AAP looking at the way its raining since morning.

Drama Delhi Chief Minister

The way Delhi  Chief Minister is behaving, I remember saying I heard during my childhood that known enemy is better than unknown friend. We should re
member this while voting during Loksabha poll 2014.

difference between Rahul's speech and Namo speech

When Rahul was speaking, it was as if conversation between friends. However when Namo was delivering speech, it was as if an elderly preaching what he thinks best for voters. I really don't like it. We should not be moved as animals in a Herd.
 

Law Minister's role as Police man

I donot want to comment on the manner which reflected childish behaviour of a Minister of Law of Government of Delhi. I happen to live in South Delhi. My neighbourhood also has lot of foreigners living on rent. We may not agree with the way they live but we must appreciate that they come from different background. It may also be true that they may not appreciate the way we live that does not mean that we go to their houses and abuse them or they come to our houses and abuse us. The harmony with which the people were treated in the neighbourhood has slowly started eroding and is missing in some areas of Delhi. The situation is worse in the villages that have become part of the expanding south Delhi.  

Death of Sunanda Pushkar.

Felt so sad. What has gone wrong to our society. The social fabric that used to give shoulder to community members whenever they are depressed is truly missing in the Mega Cities.  Time to plan retirement and go back to the village from where our parents came as life in cities is no easy life. My parents 88 and 82 years old are so very lonely that with all the worldly things around them they are not at peace even for a minute during the day.

Rahul's Speech

Great speech!! Felt connected to the issues he raised. Certainly a new avataar. A freshness in the manner the political speeches are made.

Shortage of IAS officers

I happen to read news on the whispersinthecorridors.com that there is shortage of 1400  IAS officers in the country. I wonder then why States/ UTs Government are relieving IAS officers for Central Staffing Scheme. They should serve their own Cadre in such a scenario. Perhaps their absence from the centre would help in curtailing the scams that are so prominent these days in the news.
