Corruption Rankings of Countries of world

World Corruption Rankings 2011 are out and as expected it is all asian countries which take the top spots in most corrupt countries list, In Corruption perceptions index 2011 listing 178 countries in total, our country India stands at 95/178. Corruption perception index ranking from 1 to 182 is countries with least level of corruption to maximum ie If NewZealand has rank 1 then it is least corrupt country and If India has rank 182 it is most corrupt country.

So I thought it would be nice and very informative in knowing where we stand in corruption due to our politicians. The Worst thing about tarnished image of India in high level corruption is that it has lost credibility in world and we shall witness declin in rate of Foreign direct investment from now on for sure till the time we have a corruption free country like NewZealand which tops the list of least corrupt country in 2011 rankings.

Global Corruption Perception ranking 2011:

PS - Rank 1 is for least corrupt country and rank 182 is for most corrupt country.

Cost of Indian MP's | Money spent details per head

Indian Politics is thought as the most dirty political system in whole world and rightly so. With over 70 percent criminals sitting inside house enjoying taxpayers money as allowances and above that thinking that they deserve this allowance for not doing anything....

In this post I would throw some light on amount of Taxpayers money spent on Member of Parliament, Well this is no hidden fact that they purchase votes for coming into power and have nothing to do with educated class of citizens in India as they know they would purchase poors vote and come into power..and then cover up their polling expenses from taxpayers money(which is collected from educated class of citizens), hence broadly people from where MP's earn their livelihood are the ones for which Indian MP's are least bothered. One can recall average assets of 304 MPs who contested in 2004 and then re-contested in 2009 grew 300% SHAME ON MP's.

Here is amount of money spent by people of India on MP's most of them having criminal charges framed against them.

According to latest salary figures of MP's: Indian Members of Parliament voted themselves a threefold hike in their basic salary, from Rs 16,000 to Rs 50,000 and constituency allowance to 40,000 pm add to it stationary allowance of 40000. Indian MPs will thus receive an assured income of Rs 1.3 lakh a month. For many 10th grade people this amount is simply too much....but wait the allowances doesnot end here and it is just a starter in their 3 course fat meal.

MP’s wage is tax-free and comes with additional perquisites such as free petrol, free telephone calls and free housing, some of it in the most expensive real estate in the country’s capital. Most household expenses – furniture, electricity, water, laundry - is also paid for by the State. MPs can travel anywhere in the country by rail, first class, and get 34 free air tickets for themselves or a companion a year. MPs also get a daily allowance of Rs 1,000 per day to attend Parliament ( so they do a walkout everyday...:). MP's pocket Rs 2 crore a year to spend on development of their constituencies as they see fit. Which directly goes to their pockets and hardly come out, they might make their next election expenses from this money....

India is infact a funny country in which Indian MPs have unparalled freedom to fix their own salaries and perks. In France and Japan, salaries of MPs are determined in relation to the salaries of the highest paid bureaucrats. In india Member Parliament who has a defence equipment business is allowed to be on a defence committee which formulates defence policy and a parliamentarian who has aviation interests to be on a civil aviation committee, thereby making policy changes which benefit them individually. Also MP is entitled to pension even if he has spent just one day in Parliament. MP's interest free vehicle loan limit is increased from 100000 to 400000.

This all is given to MP's and their is no appraisal process for checking their performance and making them accountable for thei ill-performance. Is it morally correct?? I dont think so...

JAI HIND!

Gorakhpur's blood extracting racket busted

It is strange post but true in every sense and word. This news is from Gorakhpur district of Uttar Pradesh, Indian State where human life of poors have no value. IT HAD BEEN a bad spell for Madhubani painter Hari Kamat, and it was about to get worse. Having had almost no sales for a year, he left his village in Bihar to look for a job and ended up in Gorakhpur, 200 km from Lucknow. He was offered a job as soon as he stepped down from the bus. Two months later, he was fired for no apparent reason. Local “friends” told him they would get him another and better job — all he had to do was go for a blood test. When the results returned, he was told the quality of his blood was so good he needn’t look for regular employment, but could make a living selling his blood, earning somewhere between Rs 500-1000 per unit.

Hari had no way of knowing he was about to fall victim to a well-organised blood trade centred around Gorakhpur’s numerous private hospitals and clinics. A short while later, he was to find himself along with 16 others — 25- to 40-year-old men from across north India — imprisoned in a slum in Shahpur, two km from the Baba Raghav Das (BRD) Medical College. For two-and-a-half years, the men were kept there, fed twice a day, and made to give blood thrice a week. Protest was impossible — the constant depletion of their blood had made them too weak.

The racket was exposed on April 16, when the police raided a house in Chorpuwa slum where one of the victims had been severely thrashed for trying to escape. “It was like a dairy where cows and buffaloes are milked twice a day in return for fodder,” says Gorakhpur Cantonment Circle Officer Viswajeet Srivastava, who is in charge of the case. “The victims told us they had voluntarily sold their blood in the beginning, but later they had been confined and their blood forcibly extracted. They also said that instead of the Rs 500 per day they had been promised, they were paid only Rs 150.”

Ten people involved in the racket have been arrested so far, including Pappu Yadav, in whose house the victims were kept. Jayant Sarkar, who did all the networking with the clinics and the nursing homes, is still absconding. “All the victims had haemoglobin levels less than 4g/dl as against the 15g/dl found in a normal adult male,” says Dr Suresh Mishra of the Civil Hospital where the rescued were admitted. Among them was Durga Prasad who weighed only 21 kilos when he was found. Raju Mohanti, whose blood group is the rare A negative, says his blood was extracted 16 times a month. According to Red Cross norms, an adult can donate blood not more than once in two months. Ramu Sahu, a graduate from Patna University was told he would be paid Rs 200 a day. Like Rustam Khan, who wanted to raise money for his daughter’s wedding, he now knows only too well the depth of how he was duped.

A couple of lab assistants trained in blood transfusion, lower-level hospital staff, touts and local goons comprised this gang that made its living selling the blood of its unemployed and/or illiterate victims. They tracked migrant labourers and job aspirants at the railway and bus stations, and got them temporary jobs to make their goodwill seem genuine. After a month or two, they would get them fired and lure them into selling their blood. Meanwhile, a web of touts around the city’s major hospitals, including the BRD Medical College, Star Nursing Home, Civil Hospital and Anandlok hospital, kept track of patients in dire need of blood.

According to Srivastava, “After a sale, the touts would direct the relatives to take the blood to Mahanagar Diagnostic Centre. There the blood received a stamp, legalising the illegal practice, something the patients’ attendants fail to notice in their hurry to obtain the blood.”

TEHELKA went undercover to Gorakhpur, with its correspondent posing as the relative of a patient who had met with a grave accident. Speaking to a guard at the BRD Medical College, we were told we could buy blood outside Star Nursing Home. When we claimed our inability to do so, he agreed to arrange a unit of blood for Rs 1,200 “on humanitarian grounds”, as opposed to the Rs 96 that is the government rate.

THE GUARD later took us to a middle-aged tout, who called up a person he addressed as Master, apparently a known name in the circle (see box for transcript). We were able to contact Master later, and got to know that he was an ambulance driver. He told us that all four of his “boys” were underground that day because the health minister was visiting the city, but that he would be able to sell us a unit the next morning. full post can be read on tehlka.com follow this link

WHO and Foreign Pharmas might be link

while general surfing the internet today, I came across this article on independent magazine TEHELKA. which exposed how WHO(slave of US pharma companies) is trying to make Indian Government to buy pentavelant vaccines from WHO subscribed pharma majors(majority of USA who might be funding WHO) and stop trivelant vaccination which government is procuring from Indian pharma companies and which have been very effective from last 20-30 years or so...The key point to know here is that according to investigation by TEHELKA, these foreign vaccinations have been reason of deaths of infants in SriLanka and Bhutan.... so here is how the article goes(courtesy TEHELKA.com)

 BABIES, THEY say, are a nice way to start people. They are also, it would appear, a nice way to start profit. If the babies are Indian, there’s added allure to the profit because there are so many of them every year. In the days to come, as the denouement of a series of extraordinary events, the Indian government is expected to make a fresh decision on the number of vaccines Indian infants are to be given soon after birth. Much rests on the decision for Indian families and, oddly, the World Health Organisation (WHO), which has made a bizarre push for new vaccines it wants Indian newborns to be given in the country’s public health programme. A decision one way could risk the lives of the country’s babies, because there are doubts on the quality of vaccines the WHO is pitching for; it could push the government into financial commitments it is in no position to meet; it could empty the pockets of people who seek private medical help, and put the nation’s health sector more firmly under the control of agencies outside India.

 A decision the other way could force units formerly run by the Indian government to resume full work and make homegrown vaccines; and thrust more expenses on a feeble state wallet, which will need to fund more R&D. This vaccine soup has been stirred by the WHO, which is in the midst of several controversies of late for creating medical scares and then backing drugs to fight them. In the first week of June, the WHO admitted it had failed to disclose conflict of interest for scientists who advised it on the H1N1 influenza pandemic. The response came after a British media report said the WHO had announced a fake pandemic to boost sales for pharmaceutical companies that manufacture antiviral drugs and the H1N1 vaccine. Now, there appear to be the makings of a similar controversy over what may be taking the shape of an Indian vaccine scam. Read full article

Exposed - Congress and Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena relation


From past couple of days Indian media has shown various attacks on Team Anna, This is from "Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena" which is known to PC very well ( wait wait , I know you want proof of what I have just said)....here it is:

Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena has been actively updating it's facebook page whose link is here Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena on fb

And here is proof of their closeness with Homeminister P.Chitambaram: See this photo The photo reveals that P.Chitambaram is well versed with whole Bhagat Singh Kranti Sabha....and it is well known fact that Civil Society is strictly against corrupt Congress people like P.Chitambaram and other who do not want Janlokpal to pass in parliament.

It is also clear that Congress is binded together by orders of Sonia gandhi else they consist of group of cabinet ministers which keep on fighting with each other, So Sonia is currently acting as mother of congress family to stop and prevent fights between ministers going public.

The reason for rise of Private companies



I always wondered that post economic reforms, there has been great rise in revenues of private indian companies rather then Government companies which ruled before liberalisation of economy in 1991-92.

So what went wrong with Government companies??

There are lot of reasons for decreasing revenues of government companies ranging from vote-banks, politicians investments in private companies and job reservations for vooing votebank in favour. I would try to explain how these are the reasons for decrease in revenues of government companies with examples, however your views about the same are most welcome.

Since Politicians have lot of non-accountable money or what is known as black money they found it a good method and oppurtunity to invest in private companies via their relatives, companies on name of their servants, through Dubai route etc into the private companies which came up during post liberalization era. One example is former NCP leader and aviation minister who has stake in Indigo airlines and we all know what these corrupt politicians did to indian flagship carrier Air India (you can read my post titled Murder of Air India). Removing Air india from profitable routes was one decision taken by politicians for killing Air india.

The second main reason for degradation of Government companies is reservation. Reservation is the biggest plague which hinders government owned companies and until reservation is not stopped and candidates for jobs are elected on merit basis, we cant expect revenue to increase. There is a reason for this too. A person who is not capable at all (not because he doesn't have brain, but because he doesnot do any hard work because he knows that he has reservation and would surely get the job in government company and he stops working at all after getting job) This is the major reason according to me due to which BSNL is in loss while all the other telecom companies who doesnot have any reservations are making huge profits.

I came across one funny thing about exam setting in 2015:

New Exam Pattern in...INDIA (2015) 1) General student : Answer all Questions. It's compulsory. 2) OBC student: Answer ANY 5 out of 10 Questions. 3) SC : ONLY READ the questions. 4) ST : Thanks for coming to the Exam Hall.

It looks real hilarious isn't it?

Since Private companies doesnot have any reservations in jobs and elect a person on pure merit hence revenues are increasing many folds. We should be thankful to indian IT companies, private companies who respect people with merit and simply rejected government's demand of reservation in private sector. These private companies are today showing intellect power of general category and people who are capable of working hard and innovative in every aspect. Hence now government employees can never match with the high efficiency of general category and people who get job by merit and not by reservation.

US-Indian Diplomatic cables leak - wikileaks


Wikileaks project has been an eyeopener for many governments. There are already millions of leaked diplomatic cables of United States which basically tells how US feels about various other countries.

Following is how US diplomats feel about India, major global issues involving india and their views about Indian politicians as provided in leaked cables. No body can prove authenticity of the cables but it should be true. The Indian cables throws light on various aspects of indian Government and how USA thinks about those aspects. This list is compiled with help of wikipedia, which I think is most genuine information source available over internet.

Must Read Posts:
Arwind Kejriwal vs Rahul Gandhi
Members of Lokpal Standing Committee
Robert Vadra Corruption video

So I will take various issues of Indian subcontinent and what does corresponding diplomatic cables reveal.

J&K Army Torture :
U.S. officials had obtained evidence from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) on widespread torture and systematic abuse of detainees in Kashmir by Indian police and security forces. ICRC staff had made 177 visits to detention centers in Jammu and Kashmir between 2002 and 2004, meeting with 1,491 detainees. Out of these, 1,296 were private interviews. In 852 cases, detainees reported what ICRC referred to as the IT (intensive torture section): 171 persons were beaten, the remaining 681 subjected to one or more of six forms of torture:
electric shock (498 cases)
suspension from ceiling (381)
"roller" — a round metal object put on the thighs of sitting person, which prison personnel then sit on, crushing muscles (294)
stretching — legs split 180 degrees (181)
water torture — various forms (234)
sexual assault (302)
Numbers add up to more than 681, as many detainees were subjected to more than one form of IT. All the branches of the security forces uses these forms of IT and torture. The abuse always takes place in the presence of officers and detainees were rarely militants (because militants are routinely killed), but persons connected to or believed to have information about the insurgency. But still, the situation in Kashmir was "much better" as security forces no longer roused entire villages in the middle of the night and detained inhabitants indiscriminately, and there was "more openness from medical doctors and the police. There were some 300 detention centers ten years ago, but there are now "a lot fewer". ICRC, however, had never gained access to the "Cargo Building", the most-notorious detention center, in Srinagar. The abuse continued, because "security forces need promotions", while for militants, "the insurgency has become a business". ICRC concluded that India "condones torture" and that the torture victims were civilians. Since it is a land dispute between two countries such things can be expected to supress the voice of "what inhabitants of J&K actual want with their land".

Indian Support for LeT:
Rahul Gandhi in conversation with Timothy J. Roemer, U.S. Ambassador to India query about the activities in the region by Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), the Pakistan-based Islamist terrorist organization, Gandhi said there was evidence of some support for the group among certain elements in India's indigenous Muslim community. Now this is most dangerous for peace inside India and culprits should be hanged till death immediately after conviction.

US cables on Counter-terrorism coordination with India:
This cable reveals worst about indian politicians who are after muslim votes and thus compromise on integrity of country. The cable reveals India's "fiercely independent foreign-policy stance, its traditional go-it-alone strategy toward its security, and its domestic political sensitivities over the sentiments of its large Muslim population, have all contributed to India's caution in working with us on a joint counter-terrorism strategy. While India has been very keen to receive information and technology from us to further its counter-terrorism efforts, it provides little in return." Acting coordinator for counter-terrorism, Frank Urbancic, described India's police and security forces as "overworked and hampered by bad police practices, including the wide-spread use of torture in interrogations, rampant corruption, poor training, and a general inability to conduct solid forensic investigations

Congress vote bank politics over 2008 mumbai attacks:
Congress is presently biggest threat to communal harmony of India according to US cable on 2008 mumbai attacks. The INC tried to use the conspiracy theories behind 2008 Mumbai attacks, targeting its main political rival, the BJP, to gain support of the Indian Muslim community for the 2009 Indian general election, the INC cynically pulled back from its original dismissal and lent credence to the conspiracy. The cable alleged, "The entire episode demonstrates that the Congress Party will readily stoop to the old caste/religious-based politics if it feels it is in its interest.

Indian-tibet Relations:
Shiv Shankar Menon, the current Indian national security advisor said, though "the Tibetan movement has the sympathy of the Indian public, and India has been a generally supportive home to tens of thousands of Tibetans, including the Dalai Lama, for nearly 50 years, the tacit agreement that Tibetans are welcome in India as long as they don't cause problems is being challenged.

Maoist violence in India:
According to another leaked cable Indian Maoists are "not dependent on support from outside India" and are moving towards a more unified command system. A U.S. cable reproduced by the media said, "In some respects more so than the GOI (Government of India) -- are concerned that Naxal terrorism, which covers a broad region of Eastern, Central, and Southern India, is growing in sophistication and lethality and will be a significant long-term challenge." "Unlike terrorists in Kashmir, these Naxalite groups are not dependent on support from outside India; the GOI and independent experts assess that Naxals purchase some weapons from Nepalese Maoists, but (per the GOI) `the relationship is commercial, not ideological'." The cable pointed out that the Maoists, such as those in the Communist Party of India (Maoist), "are moving toward a more unified command system than the plethora of small jihadi groups that co-exist alongside LeT (Lashkar-e-Taiba) and JeM (Jaish-e-Mohammed)." It said that while jihadis are expanding their area of operations to conduct attacks, particularly in cities, "Naxals are expanding the area of (rural) territory they effectively control (i.e. collect taxes, adjudicate disputes, etc.)

Purchasing votes in South India:
South India politics is even worst then the north as one diplomatic cable revealed that Political parties regularly bribe voters, in the form of cash, goods, or services, before elections in South India. It may range from financing the construction of a community well to putting into an envelope and delivering it inside the morning newspaper. Politicians and their operatives have admitted to violating election rules to influence voters. The money used to pay for the bribes come from the money raised through fundraising. The practice is thought to have swung many elections where the race was close.

India-Pakistan Relations:
The U.S. conducted its own secret analysis of India's military contingency plans, which are codenamed Cold Start.[10] India has said that if sufficiently provoked, it would mount a rapid invasion of Pakistan. The U.S. said in a cable that it doubted the Indian Army was capable of doing so: "It is the collective judgment of the mission that India would likely encounter very mixed results. Indian forces could have significant problems consolidating initial gains due to logistical difficulties and slow reinforcement".[10] However, Roemer warned that for India to launch the Cold Start doctrine, would be to "roll the nuclear dice". It could trigger the world's first use of nuclear weapons since the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.[10] Indian leaders no doubt realize that, although Cold Start is designed to punish Pakistan in a limited manner without triggering a nuclear response, the Indians cannot be sure whether Pakistani leaders will in fact refrain from such a response".[10] To counter the Indian doctrine, U.S. diplomats in Islamabad were told Pakistan was working on producing smaller, tactical nuclear weapons such as nuclear artillery that could be used on the battlefield against Indian troops.

Indian MP's with Criminal Offences - A list



I was surfing as usual at my home on corruption in India (as this is the only thing which united indians, other then cricket or war with neighbours). The list of Indian sitting MP's with criminal record is huge. I was astonished to see that 28 percent of sitting MP's have criminal cases against them. So here is the complete list of indian member of parliament who have criminal cases against them presently.

Request- Please spread the list on fb, email it, tweet or whatever else to let more and more indians know about the sitting MP's probably it would help in choosing next batch in some better way by people.

MPs with criminal background:

There are 150 newly elected MPs with criminal cases pending against them. Out of these, there are 73 MPs
having serious charges against them. Here is the high level summary of the new lok sabha:
• Affidavits available for MPs - 533
• MPs with criminal charges - 150 (28.14 %)
• MPs with serious criminal charges - 72 (13.51 %)
• Total criminal cases against MPs - 412
• Total serious IPC sections against MPs – 213

Top 10 sitting criminal MP's:

9RamkishunUttar PradeshChandauliSamajwadi Party495100
10Lalu Prasad YadavBiharSaranRashtriya Janata Dal60570

The worst thing about indian Judiciary and politicians is that these MP's are never ever convicted and their cases never end. Shame on indian Parlimentarians who try to sabotage honest uprising against their corrupt deeds.

Crorepati MP's:
2009 parliament has 300 crorepati MP's, up from 154 in 2004 up 95 percent.

The criminalization of politics continues to be a very big concern, with an increase in the number of MPs with criminal records from 128 to 150. Even the number of MPs with serious criminal cases has gone up. The biggest reason for this seems to be the undemocratic and autocratic selection and nomination of candidates by political parties. In order to ensure the winnability of candidates, parties ignored honesty to give preference to muscle power and money power. As media reports seem to indicate, the misuse of monetary incentives to buy votes has increased sharply since last elections and continues to be a source of threat to real democracy. While voter awareness on this issue is very high, the problem is that those who win after spending huge amounts are unlikely to focus on good governance. They are more likely to focus on recovering the funds they spent and on giving favours to those who supported their campaigns.
