India - Banana republic in making?
There are numerous examples where indian politicians and business houses have exploited the public resources, They obviously cant be put behind bars because in a Banana republic all three segments, politicians, businessmen, police/military works for each other rather then for people, hence this politicians and businessmen nexus is impossible to break. Now you might be thinking why this nexus is impossible to break? - The answer is rather simple police would be used to torture person who initiates anything against this nexus. The other important question which comes to our mind is how to put an end to it, In a banana republic misrepresentations about data by govt offices can never end. This business/politicians nexus is used by big companies to stifle growth of newcomers into their domain, I would explain it with example- One of the biggest Indian businesss houses imported some yarn when the excise duty on the yarn was 5 percent, he stocked his warehouses well, and then using his political connections the very next day he told delhi to raise excise duty on that yarn to 25 percent, Delhi did it happily since the power of doing resides with them. Now the other players of yarn industry imported by paying 25 percent duty, They also know about the reason for increase in duty suddenly without any need/req for such increase, but because these small players are not strong enough, they cant do anything, Now the biggest player sold the yarn in India at 125 INR/unit thus other players become bankrupt as they are not in position to price their goods at that rate. Such tactics are used by biggest Indian businesses for stiffling competition using Economic/political connections. This nexus yields to never ending corruptioncases - Take 2G scam - Do you think something concrete would come out of the judiciary? I highly doubt so...2G scam case is a never ending case just like fodder scam or numerous other scams.
Due to this nexus Indian economy has become inbalanced and such imbalanced economy devaluates currency considerably. The country is ineligible for international development-credit, and remains limited by the uneven economic development of town and country, In a banana republic government servants exploit their posts for personal gains. All the points where public money is collected directly like Toll plazas, electricity department, PWD would rarely go showing profits because part of revenue earned goes to politicians, higher officials etc. Also in Banana republic nation like India government budget deficit repaid by the native working people who “earn money”, rather than “make money”. Isn't it shocking...actually it is disturbing! - you are reading Indiaassuperpower.blogspot.in, thanks for visiting! Indian Political class is rather funny - When a govt agency puts 2G losses at 176000 crores and an ignorant cabinet minister(who basically has notion that he is most brainy indian) puts that figure to ZERO!!...hahahaha Another aspect of Banana republic which India fulfills diligently is that we have an unaccountable government, Parliamentarians are usually up for sale and function as ceremonial government. With rich becoming even richer and Poor more poorer by each passing day.
When Civil society raises their voice, the politicians try to stifle their voices (again by using Police/force) like the case of Ramlila ground in delhi. The irony is these ignorant politicians think they are masters in making policies but actual scenario is when a real brainy person speaks to them then they simply look like asses in front of him. In my personal view -'Five senior cabinet leaders looks like asses when compared to intellect level of Arwind kejriwal' for sure. The business houses are looting government which is looting Indian taxpayers money(after giving politicians their share) and grow even taller in India. Thus for concluding this never ending debate on Is India a true Banana republic? - and my answer to it is YES!

Using 49-O during voting - Power to the voter
If a eligible voter doesnot want to cast his vote to any one of candidate (as candidates have criminal records, pending cases) then he can use article 49-0 for recording the fact that he doesnot want to cast his vote. However currently the whole process of using 49-O is cumbersome and not secret because if a voter chooses 49-O then he has to tell the presiding officer about this and thus secrecy of ballot is not followed in this approach which might become problem for the ballot as candidates come to know about people who have not casted votes, and we all know what any criminal can do.
The exact wording of article 49-O from constitution is as written below:
49-O. Elector deciding not to vote.-If an elector, after his electoral roll number has been duly entered in the register of voters in Form-17A and has put his signature or thumb impression thereon as required under sub-rule (1) of rule 49L, decided not to record his vote, a remark to this effect shall be made against the said entry in Form 17A by the presiding officer and the signature or thumb impression of the elector shall be obtained against such remark.
Current implementation of article 49-O violates the secret ballot. because the elegible voter has to tell to presiding officer about his intent of using 49-O thus it doesnot remain a secret anymore which husrts the basic of whole election process. But this can adher to secret ballot easily if our corrupt parliamentarians pass a bill for providing "none of the above" option along with candidate names in Electronic voting machines. Members of Civil society are demanding this bill and rightly so because if bill is passed so that when number of "none of the above" option is the highest for a particular constituency then all the candidates standing in elections for this constituency would never ever be eligible to stand in elections in future.
I think this approach would help in eradicating corrupt candidates from getting into the parliament and doing nothing for their quota of whole 5 years. If you have even better ideas for must have reforms in election process in India, do leave a comment for a healthy discussion.
Note - Please spread the word so that voters in India know about such articles and would help in choosing the right candidates for entering into parliament in future.

Electronic payments - wayout for curbing corruption
Writing a post after a long long time, but was so preoccupied this whole time. Well anyways I am back and this post is regarding -making all government payments electronically, whether the payment is to be made by the government or to the government. It should all be done electronically.
Making Payments in which government offices are involved electronically or using cash cards is very important for putting an end to corruption in India, which is corrupt from the root to the highest branch(if we consider India as a tree). There are many advantages of electronic payments over cash payments such as it is much convienient, goes through a bank so no question of black money because Income tax guys have direct eye on high value transactions made electronically. The only disadvantage for the ministers and government officers is that their personal pockets are not filled ie they cant take bribe. To compliment electronic transactions, there should be a premium value(in percentage) in case one has to use cash. This system which I am talking about is not new and is already implemented in many countries, I would give a self example.
During my visit to london in 2010, I went to CarphoneWarehouse showroom for purchasing a mobile phone, It costed 40 pounds and 10 pounds mandatory topup. When I asked for how much I have to pay in cash, the lady told 60 pounds, I argued that in your website You have mentioned 50 pounds which includes topup, she replied if you are paying using a card then you have to pay 50 pounds total else in cash the deal is of 60 pounds. So such scenario will automatically encourage payments electronically rather then conventional methods of payment.
Talking of above case in Indian scenario for payments involving government, suppose government has thrown a tender for some infra project and waits for the minimum bid, Now presently we all know the whole tender process of center and state governments involve lot of bribes to the ministry involved for selection of tender, If whole payment has to be made electronically then one thing is for sure that money involved would be white as no-one can forge bills with wrong values(as it is done presently). This way of electronic payments should then be gradually adopted by non-governemnt institutes, But the most important thing for its implementation is that MP's have to pass a bill making it a law. This condition is most difficult to happen as ministers doesnot want an end to hard cash method of payment. If present corrupt Government of India adopts this method then there would be drastic decrease in black money revolving along with the white economy. Recently UID chairmen Nilekani also proposed thet all payments above 100 Rs should be made electronically. I may have missed certain scenarios in which such method might not be as effective as cash, you can always add that in comment section.
The other obstruction in this appraoch is present thinking of people which give a sort of meagre discounts on cash payments whereas ideally it should be vice-versa. Property prices all over the world are tasting dust but in india there is no decrease in property prices because whole real estate sector thrive on black money. Another advantage of electronic payment methods is that there would be tremendous increase in direct and indirect tax collection of the government as presently there is no tax collection from transactions involving black money.

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