The appointment of private sector specialists to these posts is unprecedented as they are traditionally occupied by civil servants, particularly IAS officers.
Modi govt received backlash when it decided to recruit specialists from the private sector as joint secretaries. That’s why it decided to hand things over to UPSC.
While the language war in other states is targeting those who can't speak the local language, in Bengal, even those whose mother tongue is Bengali have to constantly prove their Bengali-ness.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
Capable of being fired in plain and high-altitude areas, it has day-and-night capability and two-way data link to support post-launch target, aim-point update.
As Narendra Modi becomes India’s second-longest consecutively serving Prime Minister, we look at how he compares with Indira Gandhi across four key dimensions.
Working long hours whe necessary is OK but otherwise it is sign of inefficiency. Late Field Marshall Manekshaw and many others have said those who cannot complete their work during office hours may be wasting their office hours.
No doubt, committed bureaucracy is anathema to our system of democracy. However a political leader should have the freedom to choose his team which he thinks can successfully implement his programmes. If nothing worthwhile has happened during Modi’s tenure, it is not because of committed bureaucracy, but because Modi had nothing worthwhile to implement. If he is re-elected, things won’t be different though he may surround himself with bureaucrats fiercely loyal to him.
Mr Singh, India wants a government that governs and one-man event management company. It suits the darbaris and a certain kind of “public intellectual” to pitch for a government of particular kind. Stability in the guise of ‘my way or the highway’ kind of government. Indian deserves better, Sir.
THE PRINT should not publish this kind of misleading articles, even if it’s from one of it’s senior members. This journalist is trying to suggest that Narendra Modi is only as bad as Indira Gandhi was. Never, never in this country human beings were killed for an animal, as under Narendra Modi’s rule, with not even a whimper of disapproval from him, forget about taking action against the culprits. Never were young girls disrobed and violated as often as under Narendra Modi’s rule, without even a whimper of disapproval from him, forget about taking any action against the culprits. I cannot find expression for it in English, in Hindi one would say: “aatma kaamp jaati hai sunke”. Not Narendra Modi’s. A truly brave leader would have ROARED WITH ANGER at such incidents, the culprits would have been given life imprisonment until death, one or two of them would have been chemically castrated, and “potential” culprits would have got a LOUD message. How can anyone with even an iota of humanity in him compare Narendra Modi with anyone?
Doing the right things and doing them right is the old belief. I guess that the supreme leader neither seems do the right things nor the right way. Good for the country, the babus are finally seeing the reality behind the propaganda.

Enduring mystery. People are working long hours, also over weekends. Why are the results not forthcoming …
