Dog cast(e)away after dalit touch. Whom to blame?
BHOPAL: A dog's life couldn't get worse. A mongrel brought up in an upper caste home in Morena was kicked out after the Rajput family members discovered that their Sheru had eaten a roti from a dalit woman and was now an "untouchable". Next, Sheru was tied to a pole in the village's dalit locality. This controversial case is now pending with the district collector, the state police and the Scheduled Caste Atrocities police station in Morena district of north MP.
DSP SC/ST Atrocities (Morena), Baldev Singh, recalls, "We got a complaint in which it has been alleged that a dog was declared untouchable and a dalit family fined for feeding it. We are investigating the allegation," said the officer.

Road number 57 caved in
Road number 57 in East Delhi caved in at Mandir marg, Krishna nagar chowk. A round pit of over 10 ft emerged in the morning. Persons from DJB as well PWD reached the spot & it was observed by them that the leakage was in a 4 ft DJB pipe line which was under the Electric poles. As its a long job & as there was a huge traffic jam on the road, the cavity has been filled by earth for the time being till further action is decided.
BBC pics of the CWG village ?
The BBC pics of the CWG Village clearly exhibit that only / mostly the Cleaning & Finishing of the Area was pending. My questions are :
Why BBC esclated the issue on its Channel, website & through other media ? Why BBC tried to malign the prestige of our country by showing only those pics which depicted an error ?
There are thousands & thousands of pic's exhibiting the beauty of CWG. Why these pic's could not find any place in the BBC pics gallery ?
Don't you think that BBC tried to treat India as a third world country ? And that too, when the North India is facing the severe of the severest rains & floods.
Just one pic showed that really some work was pending. Don't you think, it clearly meant that even BBC could not find more than that ?
My other questions are :
How an Australian Channel could do a sting operation by carrying lots n lots of explosives into the CWG ? Why they are not charged with the consipiracy against India ?
Why & How Mr Fanel changes his statement every second day ? Who is pressurising him to speak against India ?
Leaking stadiums, choked roads, emerging ditches, delayed projects, falling overbridges, corruption or no corruption, these are our internal issues and can be discussed & debated in depth after the games. But we can not allow any other country to touch our nose.
Please reply.

CWG
It is true that now is the time to save our country from all the shame,but we all must get together and punish the culprits who have put our country in to such an awkward situation. On TV i see most of the channels getting in to DEBATES with renowned people, on what went wrong and why?this will continue for some time and then the whole misdeed forgotten the culprits will live happily everafter, This is the time for one and all to get together and ask for the misuse of taxpayers money, and the only punishment which I feel right is to make all the OC members stand in J.N.STADIUM and hang them publicly like in RAVAN DAHAN on Dussehra

CWG volunteers ?
Dear Mr. Vohra ji,
It is a pity that there has been all over 'criticisms' on the organization of the Commonwealth Games without pondering over what citizens of Delhi and others can do! We must know that in every sphere of activity, whether collection of property tax/income-tax or payment of bills etc. the citizens of Delhi have to undergo numerous problems and we are also part of it. Govt. servants do not work but they demand only pay and perks. Unless and until the 'fear' of punishment is there ingrained in the minds of people, things will not improve however much you preach and give training etc.
You know what a collossal amount had been sent on 'training' of volunteers and officials abroad during the last four years. Let's get it and you will know what all these officials had done abroad and what they are doing now and how much money had been spent on them.
We must also know that India - our mahan Bharat - are 'masters of crisis management'. First we are loath right from the beginning, instead of doing things on a planned and phased manner and thereby create a 'crisis' in which situation many agencies and people get profitted and manage them at a short notice. I have been pleading with people if there is one gold or diamond medal at the international forum in any sphere of activity for 'crisis management' there is none in the world to beat INDIA. We are masters in 'crisis management' and nobody can match our efficiency and proficiency in this respect. It is a challenge any one can take it!
Perhaps you may be aware that one agency "City Operations' trained more than 2400 volunteers to assist the Organizing Committee in organizing the Games. They were addressed by none else than by the Chairman of the Organizing Committee, Shri Suresh Kalmadi, that they "will be playing a vital role as City Operations at the Games Headquarters"! But alas despite taking a number of training sessions organized by the Amity University at Noida, issuing ID cards and uniforms, no intimation whatsoever have so far been received by these volunteers, of which I am one of them (despite being an Asiad Jyoti awardee), despite a number of phone calls and e-mails. No reply has been received so far. Whereas on contrast, it is a pity that we are getting a large number of foreign volunteers to assist us and now the members of the foreign teams who are coming are volunteering to assist the OC of the CWG little knowing our background, culture, ground position and knowledge about our beautiful city etc. This is the state of affairs. We have not picked up the 'right talent' right people who are 'passionate and committed about games' and take pride in working for the Organizers but 'chammas and who blow the trumphet of the higher officials at the CWG OC' are playing a vital role. It is unfortunate that none who have had experience and expertise in 'sports administration' has been associated with the OC!
We are "Delhi United" to help the OC of the CWG but are the latter 'UNITED' to avail of our services! It is a pity that these decorated people who did yeoman services during Asiad-82 have not been even called to attend the GAMES AND HONOUR THEM!

CWG
Dear friends,
We citizens have been living and tolerating inefficiency,corruption ,lack of planning and incompetence since long.It is just that it has got exposed now and is there for the world to see.We are not only being tested by people but also by mother nature.We all know, merit has always been compromised in handing out jobs as quota system takes over.I dont know why we are getting shocked over faliure of this magnitude,as it was bound to happen.MCD ,DDA,PWD and other authorities were involved in CWG projects, its a collective faliure of our governance.
Look around you ,in your neighbourhood it is not difficult to spot corrupt and antisocial people,they are part of our society .We do not raise our voices against them but choose to be silent spectators.At this stage we can just pray that athletes do not pull out and any further untoward incident does not take place.Only a miracle can save our nation from getting shamed internationally.

Bridge collapse at this moment of time ?
Really shocking & unbelievable.
Bridge collapse in the Capital city & in a prominent stadium & that too, just 11 days before the start of the CWG with atleast 26 injured. Really SHOCKING & UNBELIEVABLE.
When all the foreign countries are shouting on one pretext or other and trying to cancel the CWG, it is the worst news. The countries alreading exhibiting doubts over security, comfort, cleanliness of the CWG premises have got another point to raise objection.
The prestige of the country is at stake. A day before, news of shots fired near Jama Masjid has already dented the security. Now this collapse has further damaged the goodwill of the country.
May we request to the Delhi Government & the prominent opposition partys to unite at this juncture of most crucial time when Delhi is on the verge of severe floods & a judgement on 24th september while CWG knocking the doors.

Foot over bridge collapses near JLN STADIUM
Just now I am viewing bridge to parking and nehru stadium Collapse on 24 *7 NDTV. Four persons have been injured. This is really a bad news and compell us to hang our head in shame. Immediately, the top supervisory staff must be placed under suspension, the contractor black listed besides conducting proper open enquiry. The scene on TV looks grim and there is structural failure. As an engineer, I am perturbed that how a project of such importance could be executed with such callous attitude.
