Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Perform or Perish ?




IAS officer , Ashok Khemka was Managing Director of Haryana Seed Development Corporation from  Oct 15 , 2012  to  April 4 , 2013


Roshan Lal , Principal Secretary ( Agriculture ) , has recommended issue of a charge sheet against Khemka for “ alleged irregularities in wheat seeds sale “ , during Khemka’s tenure as MD


And what were those irregularities ?


Not meeting the target for the sales


Meaning , “ under-performance “


I request Khemka not to protest or fight the charge


He would do this country , a great favour by accepting his “ crime “ and going to jail !


He would establish that “ Under-Performance “ by a Government Officer or a Public Sector Officer , is a crime , punishable by laws of the land


A welcome precedence that would put behind bars ,


Ø  Sitting MLAs of Delhi State Assembly ( Congress-men )


Ø  Current Corporators of Delhi Municipal Corporation ( BJP men )


Of course that would give a patently unfair ( ? ) advantage to Aam Aadmi Party candidates on 4th December , since none of them had , as yet , an “ opportunity  to under-perform “ !


People of Delhi have a unique chance to ,


Ø    Elect 40 + AAP candidates on 4th Dec


Ø    Demand that they would be considered to have “ performed “ , only if they manage to bring down the onion price to Rs 20 per Kg , within 4 weeks of being voted to power


Arvind Kejriwal ,


Passing Jan Lok Pal Bill on 29th Dec in Ram Lila Ground may be very dramatic , facing dozens of TV cameras , but what people of Delhi need NOW , is cheap onions !


Law or no law , people are unwilling to forgive non-performers
