NEW INITIATIVE TAKEN BY INDIAN GOVT
INDIA IS ROCKING
The links below seem to be functional indeed! I think we have sufficient rules/policies/guidelines in India to help the common man, just that the awareness abt them is missing Hi All, Government of India has an online Grievance forum at http://www.pgportal.gov.in
Can you imagine this is happening in INDIA?
The govt. wants people to use this tool to highlight the problems they faced while dealing with Government officials or departments like
1) Railways 2) Posts 3) Telecom (incl. Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) & Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL) 4) Urban Development (Delhi Development Authority (DDA), Land & Development Office (L&DO), Central Public Works Department (CPWD), etc) 5) Petroleum & Natural Gas 6) Civil Aviation (Air India, Airports Authority of India, etc) 7) Shipping, Road Transport & Highways 8) Tourism 9) Public Sector Banks Allahabad Bank Andhra Bank Bank of Baroda Bank of India Bank of Maharashtra Canara Bank Central Bank of India Corporation Bank Dena Bank Indian Bank Indian Overseas Bank Industrial Development Bank of India Ltd National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development Oriental Bank of Commerce Punjab & Sind Bank Punjab National Bank Small Industries Development Bank of India State Bank of Bikaner & Jaipur State Bank of Hyderabad State Bank of India State Bank of Indore State Bank of Mysore State Bank of Patiala State Bank of Travancore Syndicate Bank UCO Bank Union Bank of India United Bank of India Vijaya Bank 10) Public Sector Insurance Companies GIC of India Life Insurance Corporation of India National Insurance Company Ltd. The New India Assurance Company Ltd. The Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. United India Insurance Company Ltd. 11) National Saving Scheme of Ministry of Finance 12) Employees' Provident Fund Organization 13) Regional Passport Authorities Regional Passport Office, Ahemadabad Regional Passport Office, Amritsar Regional Passport Office, Bangalore Regional Passport Office, Bareilly Regional Passport Office, Bhopal Regional Passport Office, Bhubaneswar Regional Passport Office, Chandigarh Regional Passport Office, Chennai Regional Passport Office, Cochin Regional Passport Office, Coimbatore Regional Passport Office, Dehradun Regional Passport Office, Delhi Regional Passport Office, Ghaziabad Regional Passport Office, Goa Regional Passport Office, Guwahati Regional Passport Office, Hyderabad Regional Passport Office, Jaipur Regional Passport Office, Jalandhar Regional Passport Office, Jammu Regional Passport Office, Kolkata Regional Passport Office, Kozhikode Regional Passport Office, Lucknow Regional Passport Office, Madurai Regional Passport Office, Malappuram Regional Passport Office, Mumbai Regional Passport Office, Nagpur Regional Passport Office, Patna Regional Passport Office, Pune Regional Passport Office, Raipur Regional Passport Office, Ranchi Regional Passport Office, Shimla Regional Passport Office, Srinagar Regional Passport Office, Surat Regional Passport Office, Thane Regional Passport Office, Trichy Regional Passport Office, Trivandrum Regional Passport Office, Visakhapatnam 14) Central Government Health Scheme 15) Central Board of Secondary Education 16) Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan 17) National Institute of Open Schooling 18) Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti 19) Central Universities 20) ESI Hospitals and Dispensaries directly controlled by ESI Corporation under Ministry of Labour
Many of us say that these things don't work in India. Couple of months back, the Faridabad Municipal Corporation laid new roads in his area and the residents were very happy about it. But 2 weeks later, BSNL dug up the newly laid roads to install new cables which annoyed all the residents. A resident used the above listed grievance forum to highlight his concern. To his surprise, BSNL and Municipal Corporation of Faridabad were served a show cause notice and the guy received a copy of the notice in one week. Government has asked the MC and BSNL about the goof up as it's clear that both the government departments were not in sync at all.
So use this grievance forum and educate others who don't know about this facility. This way we can at least raise our concerns instead of just talking about the 'System' in India.
Invite your friends to contribute for many such happenings.

Raman: Narain, I've been attending night classes for 5 months now and I have an exam next week.
Narayan: oh!
Raman: For example, do you know who is Graham Bell?
Narayan: No
Raman: He's the inventor of the phone in 1876;
if you take night Courses you would know this.
The next day, the same discussion took place:
Raman: Do you know who Alexander Dumas is?
Narayan: No
Raman: He's the author of "The 3 Musketeers",
if you take night courses, you would know this.
The next day, once again:
Raman: And do you know who Jean Jacques Rousseau is?
Narayan: No
Raman: He's the author of "Confessions",
if you take night courses, you would know this.
This time, Narayan got irritated and said: And you, do you know who is Balakrishnan Kuppuswamy?
Raman: No
Narayan: He's the guy roaming with your wife!! If you stop night courses, you would know.

corporate communication
Programmer to Team Leader:
"We can't do this proposed project. **CAN NOT**. It will involve a majordesign change and no one in our team knows the design of this legacysystem.And above that, nobody in our company knows the language in which thisapplication has been written. So even if somebody wants to work on it,they can't. If you ask my personal opinion, the company should never takethese type of projects."
Team Leader to Project Manager :
"This project will involve a design change. Currently, we don't have anystaff who has experience in this type of work. Also, the language isunfamiliar to us, so we will have to arrange for some training if wetake this project. In my personal opinion, we are not ready to take on aproject of this nature."
Project Manager to 1st Level Manager :
"This project involves a design change in the system and we don't havemuch experience in that area. Also, not many people in our company areappropriately trained for it. In my personal opinion, we might be ableto do the project but we would need more time than usual to complete it."
1st Level Manager to Senior Level Manager :
"This project involves design re-engineering. We have some people whohave worked in this area and others who know the implementation language. Sothey can train other people. In my personal opinion we should take thisproject,but with caution."
Senior Level Manager to CEO :
"This project will demonstrate to the industry our capabilities inremodelling the design of a complete legacy system. We have all thenecessary skills and people to execute this project successfully. Somepeople have already given in house training in this area to other staffmembers. In my personal opinion, we should not let this project slip byus under any circumstances."
CEO to Client :
"This is the type of project in which our company specializes. We haveexecuted many projects of the same nature for many large clients. Trustme when I say that we are the most competent firm in the industry for doingthis kind of work.

An essay written on INDIAN COW by a candidate appearing for IAS exam. This was published in the Marathi daily news paper - Loksatta
Be happy!!!
1. Throw out nonessential numbers.
This includes age, weight, and height.
Let the doctors worry about them.. That is why you pay them.
2. Keep only cheerful friends.
The grouches pull you down.
(Keep this in mind if you are one of those grouches!)
3. Keep learning:
Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain get idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil's name is Alzheimer's!
4. Enjoy the simple things
5. Laugh often, long and loud.
Laugh until you gasp for breath.
And if you have a friend who makes you laugh, spend lots and lots of time with him or her!
6. The tears happen:
Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. LIVE while you are alive.
7 Surround yourself with what you love:
Whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health:
If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9. Don't take guilt trips.
Take a trip to the mall, even to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity

The Agenda of Happiness
The Smile - It is the business card of healthy people. Distribute it gently. The Dialogue - is the bridge that connects the two sides, I do to you. Broadcasts-enough.The Love - is the best music on the score of life. Without it, you'll be a (a) eternal put out of tune(a).
The Goodness - is the most attractive flower garden of a heart grown well. Plant these flowers. The Joy perfume is gratifying, the fruit of duty accomplished. Esbanje it, the world needs it. Peace in Consciousness - is the best pillow for the sleep of peace. Living at peace with himself.
The Faith - the compass is right for ships errantes, uncertain, searching the beaches of eternity. Use it whenever.
The Hope - the wind is good enfunando the sails of our boat. Call it into your daily life. We believe that this agenda with the happiness may be the companion and ally to touch the boat's life.
Twenty gr8 One liners
1. Regular naps prevent old age... Especially if you take them while driving.
2. Having one child makes you a parent; having two makes you a referee.
3. Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right and the other is the husband! 4. They said we should all pay our tax with a smile. I tried- but they wanted cash.
5. A child's greatest period of growth is the month after you've purchased new school uniforms.
6. Don't feel bad. A lot of people have no talent.
7. Don't marry the person you want to live with, marry the one you cannot live without... But whatever you do, you'll regret it later.
8. You can't buy love. . But you pay heavily for it.
9. True friends stab you in the front.
10. Forgiveness is giving up my right to hate you for hurting me.
11. Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.
12. Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.
13. My wife and I always compromise. I admit I'm wrong and she agrees with me.
14. Those who can't laugh at themselves leave the job to others.
15. Ladies first. Pretty ladies sooner.
16. It doesn't matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss.
17. They call our language the mother tongue because the father seldom gets to speak.
18. Saving is the best thing. Especially when your parents have done it for you.
19. Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools talk because they have to say something.
20. Real friends are the ones who survive transitions between address books

Be Aware frens!!!
Dear Friends, If you are ever forced by a thief or someone to take money out of an ATM machine, enter your pin number reversed. So if your number is 1254 mark 4521. The ATM machine will give you your money, but will automatically recognize this as a plea for help and will alert the police unknown to the thief. This option is in all ATM machines, but not many people know this. Please pass this information on to others. No harm in keeping this in mind!!
