Open letter to Delhi CM Mr Arvind Kejriwal on the status of RWAs !

K/a.: Mr. Arvind Kejriwal,

CM, Delhi

Subject: Please go through the ATTACHED order of the Delhi Government, F.18 (101)/UD/Pig./DUDA/2015-16/Voi-II/ 878-902 dated 7.6.2016 regarding Release of funds for Execution of the Plan Scheme "Strg. and Augmentation of Infrastructure i.e. Roads, Streets Localities Streets Lights etc. in each Assembly Constituencies for the year 2016-17.

Dear Sir,

Before contesting the Delhi Assembly elections, at an RWA meet, on 15^th October 2014, at the Rose Avenue, at 2 pm, you had made huge promises with the RWAs that they will be empowered, RWA Act will be made, Funds will be at the disposal of RWAs for the localized works, but after winning the Elections, you have sidelined the RWAs to such an extent, that your above order for the day to day requirements of localities, does not contain the term RWA, anywhere.

Though the order does not contain the term RWA anywhere, SHOCKINGLY, it contains the term Mohalla Sabha, as below:

4. Before executing the works under MLALAD, DUDA shall be required to open separate bank accounts for each MLA Constituency. The amount of balance fund worked out by UD Deptt. in the current proposal is to be accounted for against MLA Constituency wise by DUDA prior to the start of implementation. The works proposed to be executed under MLALAD Scheme and those proposed to be taken up through Swaraj Fund as recommended by Mohalla Sabhas should not be in conflict with each other and DUDA is to ensure that no duplicity of works is there.

5. Separate Assets registers/accounts against works of MLALAD and Mohalla Sabhas are to be maintained and needs to be continuously updated by DUDA online so that the assets created through MLALAD scheme could be distinguished. This will bring transparency in the execution of works and submission of utilization certificates.

Does it mean that you have sidelined those RWAs, whom you had promised a lot, before the Delhi Assembly elections?

Does it mean, that you do not recognize the RWAs anymore as they are the true critics & not the own party personals in the garb of Mohalla Sabha?

Looking forward to your valued reply at the earliest possible for deciding the future course of RWAs action in this regard.

Thanks,

B S Vohra

The 2nd Coming.... of the Sealing Drive! Can Delhi be Saved from its Own Plunderers ???

As Jesus Christ ascended into heaven at the completion of His mortal ministry, two angels declared to His Apostles, “This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven” (Acts 1:11).

When the Savior comes again, He will come in power and glory to claim the earth as His kingdom. His Second Coming will mark the beginning of the Millennium.

The Second Coming will be a fearful, mournful time for the wicked, but it will be a day of peace for the righteous. The Lord declared…..

PROFITEERING AT THE EXPENSE OF IDIOTS (like me, who still think that RULE OF LAW shall Prevail) ……. Has now become a MATTER OF RIGHT for the Law Breakers who now QUESTION …… Why were they allowed to break the Law by the Authorities ???

SUPREME COURT must take the blame also for sleeping over the Mess Delhi was hurtling into for the past decade ….. they slept 10 times longer than a KUMBH KARAN Sleepover. SC must be reminded that Citizens cannot be sedated into inertia …….. Life has to move on. The Arms of Governance meant to uphold SC’s Dignity and Rule of Law miserably failed them.

Other than the Judges, no one was fooled into believing the Authorities. Finally, the SC has woken up and has Ordered Restoration of the MONITORING COMMITTEE. Things have gone almost beyond redemption and whatever semblance of Order that can be restored will be at great cost to Citizens and the Exchequer. Delhi is already reeling under an Environmental Disaster and the Solutions Regulators like EPCA can think of are ODD/EVEN or HIKING PARKING FEE.

I had on 9th Nov. 2017 in the wake of the worst Smog had posted the following on Facebook ….. “#OddEvenBack unbridled MIGRATION; Ever Increasing Dwelling Density; 82 flights/hour DO NOT POLLUTE because they fetch VOTES.”

All the Ails that Delhi today suffers from are the result of ever-increasing Dwelling Density that DDA keeps introducing to the MPD-2021, which anyway is just a piece of paper that no one implements. DELHI IS AT THE POINT OF IMPLODING, with DDA Feeding on the GREED of Citizens’ keeps on relaxing norms to accommodate more and more Construction and Commercialization.

Delhi is a nonstop Urban Jungle with INTERMINGLING OF HABITAT & LIVELIHOOD (both Industrial & Commercial) and unplanned Rickety Structures, in Seismic Zone IV. DELHI IS SUFFERING DUE TO A FLAWED MPD-2021 that has ignored the following:-

1. INFRASTRUCTURE – Traffic Jams; Parking; Water; Power; Drainage; Sewage; Waste management

2.TRANSPORT – Bursting at Seam Buses/Metro;  Unverified Fleecing Autos/Taxis/Ola/Uber; Road Rage

3.SOCIAL FABRIC – Disturbed, where strangers lurk; Eve-Teasing

4.SECURITY/CRIME – Rapes; Snatchings; Criminals commit crime and melt into the Crowed

5.ENVIRONMENT – Smog; Untreated Sewage in the Yamuna; Noise Pollution; Depleting Water Table

6.HEALTH – Overloaded Hospitals; Fleecing Private Hospitals & Path Labs; Dengue; Asthma

7.SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE – Encroached Parks; Few Playgrounds, Inadequate School & College Seats

8. PUBLIC SAFETY – Encroached Footpaths; Unsafe/ Insanitary/Dark Underpasses and Over Bridges; Disabled Non-Compliant

9. AESTHETICS – The less said the better ….. Non-stop Slum

The recently rejuvenated Monitoring Committee has again started the Sealing Drive and the Shopkeepers are up in arms. Political Parties are doing what they do best ….. POLITICKING …… instead of thinking for Delhi’s survival they are pandering to Vote Banks. YES, there will be some Genuine Sufferers who were misled into their decision ...... WE MUST DEMAND ACTION AGAINST DELINQUENT OFFICIALS.

Today on Christmas Day I wish to say, Jesus may not choose to come but this Monitoring Committee is our LAST CHANCE TO SAVE DELHI …… Please come forward in Solidarity with a Just Solution.

Warm Regards and Happy Gurupurab & Christmas,

RAJIV KAKRIA

PS: HAPPY GOOD GOVERNANCE DAY …… A Gentle Reminder to the Government....... :)

Why they can't adhere to even the basic norms in this most polluted city? - News - Dainik Bhaskar

Why our Rules are for the General Public only & not for those who have the responsibility to see, that rules are being followed? Why they can't adhere to even the basic norms in this most polluted city? - asks, B S Vohra, Environment Activist

Delhi Govt Approved colony - without Water pipeline & drainage system?

Sir,

Request to bring your kind attention to the below three basic requirements:

1. Water & Sewerage: There is no water pipeline facility in the colony. Its biggest problem in the colony. Ladies go here and there at a far distance for drinking water and that water also is not up to the mark to drink. Sewerage: There is no sewerage system in the colony. All people forced to have safety tanks in their houses. But most of the safety tanks overflow and sewerage water is flowing in drainage and roads.

2. Drainage, Roads & Ramps: Drainage system in the colony is very poor. They are so deep that wastewater is also stored in drainage which causes multiple health problems.  Drainage water generally overflows and comes on roads which have damaged the roads also. Roads & Ramp: Max of the Roads & Ramps are damaged.

3. Security Gates: Our colony is completely covered and having only two entrance gates. for security reasons, need gates at both entrance points of the colony.

Note: 

1. Our colony RWA is named as RESIDENT WELFARE ASSOCIATION ((Regd. No. 61046/2007), ROSHAN VIHAR, PART-1, D BLOCK, GURGAON ROAD NAJAFGARH, New Delhi- 110043.

2. Our colony is in the list of Delhi Govt. Approved Colony with Regn. No.160A wide F.No.1-33/UC/UD/Policy/2012/549-553. 
3. Official address of the colony Office: RZ- 31, Roshan Vihar D Block, Near BDO Office, Gurgaon Road Najafgarh, New Delhi- 43

Request to please consider all above requests and oblige. Thanking you in anticipation,

Regards,

Being forwarded to media friends to check if its true.

Decision of GST Council : Inter-State e-way Bill to be made compulsory from 1 st of February, 2018; system to be ready by 16th of January, 2018.

The 24th meeting of the GST Council held today through a video conference. It discussed about the implementation of e-way Bill system in the country. Till such time as National e-way Bill is ready, the States were authorized to continue their own separate e-way Bill systems. However, it was represented by the trade and transporters that this is causing undue hardship in the inter-State movement of goods and therefore, bringing in an early all India system of e-way Bill has become a necessity. The GST Council reviewed the progress of readiness of hardware and software required for the introduction of nationwide e-way Bill system. After discussions with all the states, the following decisions are taken :- 

i) The nationwide e-way Bill system will be ready to be rolled out on a trial basis latest by 16th January, 2018. Trade and transporters can start using this system on a voluntary basis from 16th January, 2018. 

ii) The rules for implementation of nationwide e-way Bill system for inter-State movement of goods on a compulsory basis will be notified with effect from 1 st February, 2018. This will bring uniformity across the States for seamless inter-State movement of goods. 

iii) While the system for both inter-State and intra-State e-way Bill generation will be ready by 16th January, 2018, the States may choose their own timings for implementation of e-way Bill for intra-State movement of goods on any date before 1 st June, 2018. There are certain States which are already having system of e-way Bill for intra-State as well as inter-State movement and some of those States can be early adopters of national eway Bill system for intra-State movement also. But in any case uniform system of e-way Bill for inter-State as well as intra-State movement will be implemented across the country by 1 st June, 2018

Shockingly, Fortis overcharged ADYA's parents by 1737% !

Gurugram’s Fortis hospital overcharged deceased 7-year-old’s parents by 1,737%. 

Don't you think that Govt must check that how many persons have been looted by all such hospitals, till date? 

Don't you think that Govt must put a CAP on the costs of each & everything in such hospitals, i.e. Room charges, Consultation charges, Medicine charges, Operation charges, Room visit charges, ICU charges and so on so that no single person is looted by all such hospitals anymore?  

Don't you think that Govt must find out that what is the quantum of Income Tax being paid by all such hospitals?  

Don't you think that Govt must check the increase of Assets of all such hospitals regularly, in order to stop them from looting the general, poor & middle-class public?

Strange & Shocking, the poor & middle-class patients are forced to sell their houses, shops, jewelry, for the treatment, for which they are being overcharged by up to 1737%. All the Activists must come forward & raise this very serious issue.

Pollution related - If they don't do anything, can we remain the silent spectators?

Yeah, that's the CRUX. They have everything on the table, but they are not willing to do anything. Vehicular emissions & the encroachment increasing day by day, causing severe traffic jam all over, causing pollution & the main source of NO2, SO2, Benzene as well as the PM 2.5, but none there to come forward to control it.

WHO says, that over 30,000 persons are killed every year in Delhi & NCR due to pollution. Chicago University says that the residents of Delhi & NCR are losing up to 6 to 9 years of their life due to Pollution.CSE says that every 3rd child in Delhi has the Lungs problem. UNICEF says that pollution is having a very bad impact on the brains of our children. 

We are shouting but on the Social media, WhatsApp and no more. 

My QUESTION is, if they don't come forward or if they don't do anything, can we remain the silent spectators?
