Union Territories in India.

As on today,there are 8 union Territories and 28 states.

With recurring friction between Lt Governors and the elected chief ministers of these Territories such as Pondicherry, NCR ,and the resultant legal battles impel one to go for a  suitable constitutional amendment to remedy the perennial problems.

It is high time such a solution is contemplated.

NCR, Pondicherry ( after merging yanam in AP and the contagious part in Kerala)  .,Jammu with Ladakh  and separate Kashmir be made independent states.

As regards Dadra, Nagerhaveli,Diu and Daman,they  be merged with the contagious states Gujarat, Maharashtra etc .

Chandigarh and Andamans with lakshdweep island remain as Union Territories.

Such regrouping is LONG

 Overdue.

Instead of a  Lt Governor(Anachronistic in a Democracy) chief Admin can replace him. 

Praying that the members of Lok Sabha and Rajya sabha would care to consider the above.

 Much ado about nothing!

Nitesh's resignation and forming govt with outside support of bjp seems to disturb many so called democrats of the country.my fervent appeal to them is not to get agitated and take it with a pinch of salt.no political party in the country is formed to do social service but to grab POWER by hook or by crook.voter is a means to attain that end.voter is never bothered as long as a stable govt is thete, corrupt or otherwise.bjp is no exception to this.wisdom lies in accepting whatever that happens without loosing ones peace of mind.our experience since first general elections is a testimony to it.now TV channels will have a field day and rti activists will create enough work for the legal luminaries,.

 Some Reflections.

Apropos the fb post "Education is Strategic",let me recall that visionary prime ministers ,Nehru  and  Rajiv Gandh, in the past ,without their partys concurrence or appreciation of their vision,

 inspired by     by the western countries progress and ignited by socialistic and welfare outlook.(,Nehru) steadfastly pursued establishing higher educational institutions such as iits ,national resarch labs etc that would make India self sufficient and compete with advanced countries and Rajiv Gandhi goaded us to be tech-savy and introduced learning through computers.in this effort ,Congress party remained sceptical except pv narasimharao as  HRD minister,who gave a shape to Rajivs vision through National Education Policy in 1986.Tenures of the remaining prime ministers of India was plateful of vote-bank and caste based and religion based divisive politics and attempts to stick to power by hook or crook,without any VISION.They have also shamelessly brought the system to a stage of ineffectiveness and corrupted the establishment.Even if we may have a visionary PM now or in future,I doubt if he will be allowed by  the establishment to translate his vision ,as  happened to Rajiv, as politics and politicians of the day have become MURKIER .!!!!!!!

The sad demise of Dangesaheb today at PARBHANI left me without a friend,philosopher and guide.I worked with him when he was Principal of Shivaji College Parbhani (marathwada) from 1963-1975.He was A scholar in marathi .His interpretations Of Saint-Poet Jnaneswars poetry won him GOLD MEDAL in his MA exams from Nagpur Univ.His essays from his answers in his exams were included in the texts of univ courses.Though a staunch Janasanghi,he had the patience to listen to differing views.the college had a golden period during his tenure with many cultural,co-curricular and xtra curricular activities in addtion to enviable academic achievements.He was an xcellent organiser.His active role in organising marathwada vikas andolan is still green in my memory.It is another matter that he was sacked from principalship in 1975.he was an xcellent human being,an AJATHA SETRU.I miss him as under his mentorship my personality was developed.I owe it to him for all the successes i achieved in my career.MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE!

 Lest we forget!

Sometime back,we found satyam computers winning international BEST GOvErnance and several other awards periodically and remained a blue eyed boy of the then CM cbnaidu   that enabled lokesh  Naidu to pursue higher studies in USA .But ,in the end satyam ramalingaraju was jailed and the company was sold to mahindratech,making a mockery of all the awards won by satyam computers.

Now,cbnaidus rule fetched too many awards, and his governance was found to be corrupt and he was voted out.

If jagan succeeds in discovering impeccable evidence of cbns misrule and corruption,(cbn has been a smart operator in his dubious acts), then cbn will taste the fate of satyam computers Raju.

 Jaganraj

Continuous set backs for many decisions taken by the present govt of AP are either stayed or nullified by the high court of AP.

One can't blame anyone except those who were vested with the powers and responsibilities to guide the govt in taking legally consistent decisions.

It looks as if many of the concerned officials have identified themselves with the whims of the ruling party,throwing all caution to winds.

It is high time the long list of advisers and the officials resist defective decisions and force the ruling elite to see reason than making a scandalous mockery of sensible governance.

It is a dissappointment for many who had high hopes on the dynamic,people friendly  young chief minister of the day!
