Tax collection targets were revised upwards by Rs 50,000 crore in the interim budget, and CAs claim officials are also withholding refunds for previous years.
India’s defence sector is trying to penetrate the African market. But with China already extending significant influence, India must now play catch-up.
Discussion about outcome of Lok Sabha polls continues to boil in cauldron of expectations only from BJP. Now reverse this equation, what if we asked about the performance of the 'loser'?
Civil servants being on social media is a grey area. Sometimes scan the tweets of senior functionaries. Life seems to be a seamless, beautifully choreographed procession of events, meetings, speeches, inaugarations, India is both Shining and Smiling, even in the dark. This is what the authorities would like the babus to contribute to when they join the medium. Nothing that disturbs the idyll.
It would be better if we knew what exactly Sanjiv Kumar wrote. “Official decorum” is a phrase in this article which makes it difficult for a reader like me to take sides. Was some official decorum violated, or was what was written should have been taken as “constructive criticism”? Difficult to say. But from Sanjiv Kumar’s statement that he could “resign”, he seems to be a man of haughty temperament, so he could be veering towards breaching official decorum. And yet, on the other hand, haughty people are exactly the types who offer constructive criticism!! 50-50. Let’s eat Parle biscuits called 50-50 and forget the whole thing.
On second thoughts if I can be cynical just for the heck of it, I’ll say BJP is a party of sycophants, Piyush Goyal and everyone else is a sycophant of Modi ji, and such people are likely to take umbrage from anything that is less than sycophantic. So we are back to square one, whatever that means.
