The absence of visual cues on Clubhouse — no videos, no text-based comments or likes — is refreshing. From Indie musicians to tech entrepreneurs, everyone is lining up.
The picture of a man worshiping a Mumbai local is viral. The local is the vehicle of the mortal, much like Hindu gods who have from lions to tigers to peacocks.
The viral video of men killing a dolphin in UP shows such acts of bestiality are committed with no real motive, or just for fun — which makes it even scarier.
Trump’s OBBB is framed to augment domestic semiconductor production and enhance trade protection, even at the expense of certain social programs such as Medicaid, food stamps, and student loans, as well as a projected ballooning federal deficit from US$2.8 to 3.3 trillion

Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
Our Babus always pass their blame to politician. Babus are so innocent that he is bind by politician. If he has a problem on doing their task/job then why not leave/resign the job but they will stick to the job and enjoy the luxury and receive hefty money under table . Our babus are so innocent.
IAS officers are not lazy babus, they are the scheming, manipulating puppeteers who have reduced government administration to a synonym for corruption and treason. Without their active support no politician can do any wrong.
While there may not be need for any elaboration on the corruption bit of it, the treason part may need some elaboration. While the task of government administration is to deliver services of the government to the people, as per laid down laws, rules and procedure, we should know how these laws, rules and procedures are subverted by these bureaucrats aka babus responsible for this administration.The latest in the laws to be subverted is the simplest and only pro-democarcy law-the Right to Information Act.

This was a term given by journalists.So I called them ‘kouwas’in Sanskrit means ‘crows’-scavenger crows.”The Hindu”published it! Hon PM was angry at Sardar Patel’s creation.Be this as it may,I have been suggesting reorganization of the Civil Services for infusing the much needed professionalism.This was given to ARCs and published too.But Govts are interested in lateral entrants for their own reasons.
Modiji is right about deriding IAS officers as useless babus. These IAS officers are creation of the Pandit Jawharlal Nehru whom BJP members and their fellow supporters call him anti national. According to Modiji, these Babus did nothing great. He believes that without them the Nation achieved 8% GDP, was the 4th standing army in the world, 5th Air Force, 2and Blue Navy. These Babus don’t toe the BJP line and that is why they are useless people. They cannot fly plane or do anything in agriculture but BJP members can do better than them. These Babus are so much educated and smart unlike the BJP ministers that it hurts his conscience. If only Babus behaved like slaves like the godi media, he would have sang their praises.
IAS officers are not the creation of Jawaharlal Nehru. They are a continuation of the ICS created by the British to rule over their colonial subjects. Nehru called them neither Indian nor Civil not servants and wanted to discontinue the ICS. It was Sardar Patel who wanted to retain the ICS and so it was renamed the IAS.
Jyoti the problem lies in your own essay which says: ‘It is possible that they may not have the domain knowledge for all their new postings, such as in aviation, chemical industry or electronics, but it is also true that they have adequate understanding of government procedures’
That’s exactly what is impeding the progress of the nation. Since the IAS bureaucrats do not have much or in most cases – no domain knowledge – they spend a great part of their time in maximizing procedures instead of maximizing the results that they are required to achieve.
Tragically successive governments have not succeeded in bringing in experts to head the government machinery and the country has to carry the burden of ‘strong procedures’ instead of reaping the benefits of ‘ strong outcomes’
Sir, in short you are trying to say an action done without any guideline. How will you make sure that the so called “strong outcome” will benefit all or done in correct way without cutting on others rights. Believe me without strong without procedure you will never get strong result. Power without accountability and responsibility is what damaging our nation, and thing is very much found among private sectors and not in bureaucracy(Coz, they have responsibility and accountability without sufficient power).
And about domain expertise, civil servants come from various background be it Science commerce or arts, on top of it they have lived village life themselve that’s why they know what are the shortcomings on ground level, it’s the politics which prevent them from doing good..tell me which govt or politicians have given civil servants free hands for developing n using creative ideas for “strong outcome”. civil servants ko seekhaya ja Sakta hai they can be taught and trained for various job roles. Civil servants are also youth of this nation. I assure you not even in private sector, which I suppose pm was trying to give shout-out , has all the expertise available with them, but they create it for there profit generation. So, tell govt. To use these some of the brilliant mind available with them in best way. A talented mind without any work entrusted will become babu. We have some ministers which have nothing to do with the ministry they are serving in..why don’t you tell this to our nation head.
Mandarin is a better term. At least in several states, where the CM wishes to rule like a king, they are supplanting ministers. Not a healthy practice. Difficult to generalise, but the politicisation of the bureaucracy is far advanced. More so in the police. Sardar Patel might find it difficult today to recognise his creation.
If our Babus were such professionals India’s governance wouldn’t be in the state that it is. The truth is that Babus are a bunch that thrive in this system with enormous powers and negligible accountability. Rated as the worst bureaucracy on the planet, other then file pushing and being obstructionist they have nothing much to show. With a gargantuan government machinery many of them end up doing things that don’t need to be done at all. Of course they are not to be blamed completely but it does take two to clap. Time for the political bosses to walk the talk and recharge the bureaucracy.
IAS officers are like PSU, outlived their usefulness. Barring many exceptions who reinvent themselvs now and then, and don’t depend on the suffix “IAS” after their name, they are inaccessible, surivve by working the system. They are jack of all trades and master of none. PSUs have become a disaster because of the bad practice of appointing IAS officers as Chairman or MD over the head of career officers and technocrats of the PSUs who know their job well. The IAS hegemony has ensured that officers in other services of the Central government do not come up in their career. There is a glass ceiling for officers in other services. IAS have particularly let down Modi very badly. In 2014, when he became the PM, he placed high degree of confidence on the IAS babus, over the head of his own ministers. Barring the absence of political corruption at highest level, nothing has changed for better. In fact, corruption is at its worst. Before shedding crocodile tears for IAS officers, ask what is their contribution in the last six years to give better governance?
You are right. Like somebody had pointed out India made such progress in atomic energy sector and space only because these two sectors have no babus (read IAS guys) with them.

Just twist Modis speech out of context and write an article!! Usual print strategy!!
Some people on twitter are not entire Gen Z
Very well written article.
We should understand the qualification of chaiwala and let forgive him
Politicians cannot understand civil servants. Civil servants cannot understand politicians. Common man cannot understand both !!!
Views are more or less wrong. Even some of the print’s articles better represent the case for or against babu culture.
Very well written.
