Why looting the country in the name of seva or service to the people ?
It is a pity and deeply regretful that our 'politicians' / netas and their chamchas have ruined the country by their policies and now we could only look forward to the Supreme Court to rescue us from the 'clutches' of our so called representatives of the people, who only look after themselves, in the name of 'aam aadmi', exploiting, in the process to the fullest extent. All politicians, irrespective of parties, are alike and looting the country in the name seva or service to people! "China has rightly said: "Democracy in India is shallow and has failed to provide stability and overall growth for its citizens. Democratic institutions have failed to provide 'equality' to its citizens"! It is shocking and time has come to show our worth to the politicians, armed with the Supreme Court order giving voters the Right to Reject!!
It is shocking that an upcoming and upgraded politician ridiculed the Govt.'s action on the issue of an ordinance with words which cannot be chewed or digested by any hon'ble citizen of this country. It is a wake-up call for all politicians that they could no longer take their voters for a 'free ride' and get votes from them by showing 'lollipop'! Can we now at least change now?
It is still yet an another ridiculous statement made by our hon'ble Minister for Petroleum saying: "I want everyone from the highest ranking officers to the lowest to take 'public transport' every wednesday (only)' and go by cars provided to all officers upto the rank of Directors by the Govt on all other days including week-ends in the garb of coming to office ! With the introduction of Metro, its feeder buses and local DTC transport, what is the difficulty in availing of them daily and save precious 'petrol/diesel' for the entire country saving precious foreign exchange and thereby helping the 'economy' to come up!! They could also 'pool their vehicles' to go to office, instead of having 'independent cars' at the cost of Govt. We can effect economy in Govt.'s expenditure on various fronts including that of our hon'ble Ministers who must set an example to others!
Enough is enough. People are now awakened and more knowledgable, thanks to the media, than ever! Don't fool them anymore and be frank and forthright to earn their loyalty,their good wishes and blessings!
With regards,

Where is our Toll Tax money going : Rajiv Kakria
ATTENTION!!!!
Hey guys.. this happened to me third time... n every time this happens i ask for my money back.
This is not the RECEIPT for crossing the toll when u pay Rs.21/- as your TOLL TAX. This is just a Vehicle Code. The money we r paying is actually going in the Tax Collectors pocket, not the toll authorities. It's mention at the collector's boxes: "IF YOU DO NOT GET A TOLL RECEIPT, CONSIDER IT AS FREE"... So ask for your copy of receipt!
Lets all stop this "fooling the public" racket and share this with all the commuters who traveling and using this DG expressway. THANX!

knowledge about dengue mosquitoes !
Every one knows that dengue mosquitoes bite in the morning; that it does not fly more then 200 meters; that it has white lines on its legs; that like all other mosquitoes it also breeds in stagnant but clear water.
Morning means only lighted areas, the dark corner of house like in verandah, lighted office or house room, under a tree, in parks under trees, in markets, bus stops, in cars, in buses etc.
Dengue mosquito is very clever, very quick in its action, fairly small. As soon as a person comes in its place, within seconds it attacks him very cleverly either in legs or from top on cheeks or from sides on arms. One has to be cautious to detect its presence. It is easier to detect it on the other person, make him cautious of its presence.
People are unaware of bite of dengue mosquitoes. We have to learn to detect it,make a habbit of looking for it where ever we go, teach others about it.This can reduce the number of dengue cases.
Any small mosquito biting a person in the lighted areas is a dengue mosquito. To confirm it one has to kill a mosquito in day time with a cloth / with a racket / with black hit and examine for white spots on its legs by examining it on a black surface with a magnifying glass.

Delhi Jal Board admits error, gives 30% rebate on bills
NEW DELHI: Accepting that the meter readings collected by them were different from the actual readings in many cases, Delhi Jal Board is giving arebate of 30% on bills dated till March 31, 2013, and paid by January 1, 2014. This, however, does not cover many bills issued in June and July which in some cases are running into lakhs.
Officials said the billing had stabilized after they switched to a new billing system, but it is only after the third billing cycle that the difference will be evident. "We have been getting complaints of high bills.
In areas where private companies have taken over billing, a difference can be seen in the readings. They are recording the actual reading whereas the DJB database shows incorrect readings. It was our fault that the data wasn't recorded correctly so we have decided to give them a rebate and extended the period for payment," said a senior official.
The private companies have also been asked to reasses the bills and charge consumers on the basis on their actual consumption during the period. "If this does not work, they will work out an average consumption and charge accordingly. The new billing system has worked in many areas and consumers have started getting regular and correct bills. We were averaging a four-month billing period earlier, but this financial year, we have completed two billing cycles and are about to start the third," said an official.

Govt to act on discom dues after elections
NEW DELHI: The government plans to get strict with the Reliance discoms, BSES Rajdhani and BSES Yamuna, from December for their failure to pay the generation companies, IPGCL and PPCL, and also the transmission utility, Delhi Transco. Sources say unless the discoms clear their dues, the government will have to regulate supply to them.
Similar threats have been made in the past, but this time the government is waiting for the elections to get over as snapping power supply could lead to blackouts across the city. Power department officials say the companies owe approximately Rs 2,800 crore to the generating companies and another Rs 1,100 crore to Transco, and . Over the past few weeks, they have paid Rs 200 crore to the gencos. But, officers point out, the two firms have defaulted on payment since 2010-11 unlike the third discom, Tata Power Delhi.
"The discoms have a lot of regulatory assets piled up which have just been accumulating and this has to be addressed at the proper level," said power secretary R K Verma. "At the same time, they have been defaulting on current dues, and if they fail to pay immediate outstanding dues, we will be left with no choice but to take action."
Verma hinted that the action could be on the lines of Delhi Metro's takeover of the Airport Express Line after Reliance stopped operations. "We have sent a number of me-morandums to the discoms to discuss a payment schedule but they never have an answer. They only talk about their outstanding dues," said Verma, adding, "DERC has directed that the August-September dues have to be cleared but the discoms have not paid. If they are in such a precarious financial situation, why doesn't their promoter, Reliance Group, bail them out?''

GK-II residents hit with hefty water bills
NEW DELHI: Shubhra Banerjee received a water bill of Rs 4.23 lakh for a period of two months this year. Banerjee lives with her mother in a flat in Greater Kailash-II. Averaging about 35 units a month, their consumption for the period between April and June is an astounding 8,740 units. Complaints to Delhi Jal Board (DJB) have yielded no results.
Darshan Lal Madan, a resident of GK-II's E-block, has to pay a bill of Rs 3 lakh for a period of three months while Ajay Gupta, another resident of E-block, has to pay a bill of Rs 1.27 lakh.
DJB claims that its billing system has improved substantially after it implemented a new system last year and the consumers can bid farewell to elevated bills by the end of this year. This, however, has not made any difference to several consumers who have been slapped with bills running into lakhs.
Banerjee says that she has been chasing DJB officials but the only response she has received is a DJB staffer asking for Rs 30,000 to "settle the matter". "I had been calling their office and all I was told is that they are looking into my case," she added.
Reflecting more poorly on DJB's consumer records, Banjeree's connection is in the name of one Jaswinder Singh. "We brought the property from him in 1976 and have been writing since then to the water utility to change the name in its records. Again, nothing has happened," she said.
Contrary to what some DJB officials said might be a result of meter change, residents who have complained of escalated bills say their meters have not been changed and this is a most likely a result of incorrect meter reading.
