Summary of All scams of India - Anna Hazare (Lok pal Bill)



Anna Hazare


DO READ & THINK…!!!

Summary of All scams of India : Rs. 910603234300000/-

                           See how Lokpal Bill can curb the politicians, Circulate it to create awareness
Existing System System Proposed by civil society
                           No politician or senior officer ever goes to jail despite huge evidence because Anti Corruption Branch (ACB) and CBI directly come under the government. Before starting investigation or prosecution in any case, they have to take permission from the same bosses, against whom the case has to be investigated. Lokpal at centre and Lokayukta at state level will be independent bodies. ACB and CBI will be merged into these bodies. They will have power to initiate investigations and prosecution against any officer or politician without needing anyone’s permission. Investigation should be completed within 1 year and trial to get over in next 1 year.
                             Within two years, the corrupt should go to jail.
No corrupt officer is dismissed from the job because Central Vigilance Commission, which is supposed to dismiss corrupt officers, is only an advisory body. Whenever it advises government to dismiss any senior corrupt officer, its advice is never implemented. Lokpal and Lokayukta will have complete powers to order dismissal of a corrupt officer. CVC and all departmental vigilance will be merged into Lokpal and state vigilance will be merged into Lokayukta.
                                 No action is taken against corrupt judges because permission is required from the Chief Justice of India to even register an FIR against corrupt judges. Lokpal & Lokayukta shall have powers to investigate and prosecute any judge without needing anyone’s permission.
Nowhere to go - People expose corruption but no action is taken on their complaints. Lokpal & Lokayukta will have to enquire into and hear every complaint.
                                   There is so much corruption within CBI and vigilance departments. Their functioning is so secret that it encourages corruption within these agencies. All investigations in Lokpal & Lokayukta shall be transparent. After completion of investigation, all case records shall be open to public. Complaint against any staff of Lokpal & Lokayukta shall be enquired and punishment announced within two months.
                                              Weak and corrupt people are appointed as heads of anti-corruption agencies. Politicians will have absolutely no say in selections of Chairperson and members of Lokpal & Lokayukta. Selections will take place through a transparent and public participatory process.
Citizens face harassment in government offices. Sometimes they are forced to pay bribes. One can only complaint to senior officers. No action is taken on complaints because senior officers also get their cut. Lokpal & Lokayukta will get public grievances resolved in time bound manner, impose a penalty of Rs 250 per day of delay to be deducted from the salary of guilty officer and award that amount as compensation to the aggrieved citizen.
                                                              Nothing in law to recover ill gotten wealth. A corrupt person can come out of jail and enjoy that money. Loss caused to the government due to corruption will be recovered from all accused.
Small punishment for corruption- Punishment for corruption is minimum 6 months and maximum 7 years. Enhanced punishment - The punishment would be minimum 5 years and maximum of life imprisonment.

Dear All, Please go through the details carefully & try to be part of this mission against corruption. Things to know about Anna Hazare and Lok pal Bill-:
1.Who is Anna Hazare?
An ex-army man(Unmarried). Fought 1965 Indo-Pak war.

2.What's so special about him?
He built a village Ralegaon Siddhi in Ahamad Nagar district, Maharashtra.

3.This village is a self-sustained model village. Energy is produced in the village itself from solar power, biofuel and wind mills. In 1975, it used to be a poverty clad village. Now it is one of the richest village in India. It has become a model for self-sustained, eco-friendly & harmonic village.
4. This guy, Anna Hazare was awarded Padma Bhushan and is a known figure for his social activities.

5. He is supporting a cause, the amendment of a law to curb corruption in India.

6. How that can be possible?
He is advocating for a Bill, The Lok Pal Bill (The Citizen Ombudsman Bill), that will form an autonomous authority who will make politicians (ministers), bureaucrats (IAS/IPS) accountable for their deeds.

7. It's an entirely new thing right..?
In 1972, the bill was proposed by then Law minister Mr. Shanti Bhushan. Since then it has been neglected by the politicians and some are trying to change the bill to suit their theft (corruption).

8. Oh.. He is going on a hunger strike for that whole thing of passing a Bill ! How can that be possible in such a short span of time? The first thing he is asking for is: the govt should come forward and announce that the bill is going to be passed. Next, they make a joint committee to DRAFT the LOK PAL BILL. 50% government participation and 50% public participation. Bcoz u can't trust the government entirely for making such a bill which does not suit them.

9.What will happen when this bill is passed?
A LokPal will be appointed at the centre. He will have an autonomous charge, say like the Election Commission of India. In each and every state, Lokayukta will be appointed. The job is to bring all alleged party to trial in case of corruptions within 1 year. Within 2 years, the guilty will be punished.

Pass this on n show ur support..

Spread it like fire; Our Nation needs us... Please Contribute... This is not just a forward, it’s the future of our Nation.

End of the world 2012 // Science Supported Predictions

2012 science predictions are many. Each of which could cause tragic destruction to the earth and possibly eliminate the population altogether. At any rate, it may represent 2012 Doomsday , a sudden change of life events, or it may just be a reflection of anticipation that doesn’t come to pass.

Personally, I am more inclined to believe the predictions that 2012 science supports over the predictions that just don’t make any sense and have no documentation to prove that such things could happen. Scientists are pretty smart people who use a compilation of math skills, experiments, scientific concepts, and documentation of history in making such predictions; however, from time to time things do happen that were unpredicted by science due to a shortage or limited monitoring. Some of the techniques may be over our heads, but usually, when a scientist says that something will happen, it will.

Events Predicted - 2012 Science by NASA

NASA is a respected government agency that was established by the President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower, back in 1958. Basically, their job is to explore both the earth and space using scientific methods in order to improve life on earth. Viewing them as a trusted source, I took a look to see what they have published in regard to 2012.

Here is what I found…

• Back in 2006, NASA issued a Solar Storm warning. Dikpati was convinced that we would reach Solar Max in 2012; however, other scientists believe that it will occur earlier, in 2010 or 2011.
• NASA presumes that the magnetic poles of the sun will reverse in 2012.
• NASA expects an annular solar eclipse on May 20th of 2012.
• NASA denies the existence of a planet named Nibiru.
• NASA admits that the earth is subject to being hit by large asteroids or comets, as it was 65 million years ago which caused extinction of the dinosaurs. A senior scientist says that large hits are rare, and they haven’t identified anything that would cause them to suspect big hits in 2012.
• A 2006 study of climate changes concluded that the living conditions of crops will be dramatically affected by a lack of precipitation.
• In reference to life elsewhere in the solar system, NASA states that microbial life forms have been found on Earth that survive under extreme conditions and that it is possible that such environments exist in the Solar System which may support life based on the known interactions of life with the evolvement of the environment in which they exist.
• Scientists refer to forces in the universe that tend to push things apart as “dark energy” of which not much is known; however, it is mentioned in reference to the fate of the universe.

Looking at these scientific facts, some of the 2012 predictions are possible although NASA doesn’t expect anything big to happen in the year of 2012, except maybe a solar storm. Is a 2012 Asteroid or a 2012 Comet possible? 2012 science happening will tell.

- Before heading east to disaster zone, Olivia Hampton reports ?we jumped into a taxi cab and had the driver guide us to different stations in and around the city. The rental car company would only provide half a tank of gas and supplies are running short. Station after station we pass are eerily empty, cordoned off with a panel reading "sold out" in big black and red characters. In the outskirts of the city, a few stations are still open but dozens of cars have formed long queues. We take our chances with one station. Here as in every other station, big yellow signs with blue and red characters warn customers they are limited to 20 litres per car. After waiting for about an hour and with just 10 cars in front of us, staff close their station and redirect traffic elsewhere. Despite all the frustration, there were no signs of road rage.?

0231 GMT: Radiation levels rose Wednesday at a quake-hit Japanese nuclear power plant but later fell, the chief government spokesman said.

More cyclists on the roads too, after reports of a run on bike shops in the city following the quake Friday."

0147 GMT: 112 countries and regions and 24 international organizations have offered assistance in the rescue and recovery efforts, says Japan's foreign ministry says, our Tokyo correspondent Frank Zeller reports.

0137 GMT: Our correspondent Olivia Hampton reports from the northwestern city of Akita about a run on petrol stations. ?On our way out of the city, we saw even bigger queues stretching for five kilometres-plus.?

0130 GMT: In Rome AFP?s reporter Gildas Le Roux says Italian officials are battling opposition to the planned re-introduction of atomic power abandoned following the Chernobyl disaster. ?Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has made nuclear energy a key part of his platform despite widespread public opposition even before Friday's massive earthquake and tsunami in Japan.?

0035 GMT: AFP's Washington bureau reports that US right-wing radio host and television presenter Glenn Beck has been blasted by other American celebrities and the media for calling the monster quake that rocked Japan a message from God.

- Actress, author and talk show host Whoopi Goldberg said Beck should "check the mirror" if he thought Friday's 9.0-magnitude quake and tsunami were signs of God's anger with mankind.

0030 GMT: The Bank of Japan has pumped another 3.5 trillion yen ($43.3 bln) into the financial system, adding to the trillions spent Monday and Tuesday to soothe shaken markets.

0015 GMT: AFP Japan bureau reports that Tokyo shares were 6.05 percent higher early on Wednesday, following the biggest two-day sell-off on the Nikkei index for 24 years on fears of the threat of a nuclear meltdown after a huge earthquake.

0010 GMT: Our correspondent in Japan Shingo Ito reports that a fresh fire broke out at the Fukushima Daiichiatomic power plant early Wednesday, compounding Japan's nuclear crisis. The blaze at the number-four reactor reportedly went out of its own accord later, the state atomic safety agency said.

0000 GMT: AFP's Hong Kong office is taking over our Live Report on the developing situation in Japan, with reports from correspondents on the ground and witness accounts.
