What is happening now and What is a dream ... This dream can materialise, with citizens support.
Happening Now:
As the Senior Bureacrats, IPS Officers and Judges approach their retirement, they fear loosing power and all the trappings of power like a car with a red beacon, citizens fearfully standing in attention before them or people moving out of their way, while walking in the corrdors of power. So they start pleasing the rotten politicians in power, so that they be rewarded, with some extension or a post retirement position for 5 or 10 years in some powerful post, where they will be entitled to all that they were used to. Now since such posts as Information Commissioner or Member of the State Human Rights Commission, etc., are less in number, than the number of Sr Individuals retiring, there is intense competition, in a game "I will lick the ruling Politicians bottom better than others". The ones who lick the best are provided extensions or a lucrative post retirement job... And they continue to lick.
Let us Dream Now.
A law is passed that no extensions will be allowed or lucrative posts will be given to anyone post retirement. Once the Senior Officers are aware that these are their last few years in service, they will do everything in their power, to improve the conditions prevalent in their departments, so that they are remembered by the public for the good work they did prior to retirement. There will now be competition amongst all of them, to do better work than others. it will be a reverse of of what is happening now ... Off course it is only a dream ... But sometimes dreams come true, if we work for it.
Ex-bureaucrat out to make a difference
from Times Of India October 25,2010 Page 4
Veteran bureaucrats and high-ranking IPS officials, particularly those due for retirement, are knocking on the doors of chief minister Ashok Chavan for appointment to the human rights commission, public service commission, information commission, consumer commission or even the newly formed security commission.Among the attractions for the post-retirement assignment are a sprawling flat in South Mumbai and a red-beacon vehicle for the next five years. But surprisingly, high-profile former DGP A N Roy has chosen an unexpected path for his post-retirement life. Roy has taken up the task of rehabilitation of widows in Yavatmal, the suicide capital of India.As DGP,when Roy visited suicide-prone districts in the backward region, he felt that along with the steps taken by the government to halt farmers suicides, it was essential either individuals or NGOs step in to tackle the agrarian crisis.
Now Roy spends most of his time either in Yavatmal or Wardha, where he was superintendent of police well over three decade ago.Of course, Roys thoughts are clear, he cant stop suicides,but at the same time he believes he can initiate certain steps which will help resolve the crisis to some extent.Roy has drafted an ambitious plan to provide micro-finance to a few families to upgrade their economic status.If the plan succeeds, then it will be implemented in all the suicide-prone districts.

Court grants six more months to chief secy
Shibu Thomas I TNN
Mumbai: The Bombay high court on T h u r s d ay gave its nod to the extension in service granted to chief secretary Johny Joseph. A division bench headed by Chief Justice Swatanter Kumar dismissed a public interest litigation filed by a city advocate, challenging Joseph’s extension saying that the state had followed proper procedures.
Joseph, who was due to retire on May 31, 2009, was given a sixmonth extension. The state had justified the extension, saying Joseph was “indispensable for the time-being’’. The government produced a 14-page letter written by chief minister Ashok Chavan to the PM’s office, which claimed that Joseph was at the helm of several important projects that were crucial to the state. These included the implementation of the post-26/11 security measures as well as the execution of the next phase of the Ratnagiri Gas and Power Project that will provide an extra 900 MW of power to the state. The letter also said Joseph was needed for the state budget and the assembly elections. He was also part of various important infrastructure projects, including the upgrade of airports, urban transport, water supply and sanitation, said the government. The state also pointed to Joseph’s capabilities as an able administrator; it mentioned his efficient handling of disaster management, following the Latur earthquake and monitoring as well as coordinating various security agencies during 26/11 terror attacks.
Petitioner R R Tripathi had claimed that service rules had been violated to give Joseph an extension. The court said it could not go into the merits of the administrative order and would only look at if the statutory procedures had been followed.( Reproduced from The Times Of India July 24, 2009 page 7)
