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?"

Who should be chastised ?





Background :



Extract :

Ø  The bench said,

Prashant Bhushan , you have an image of a crusader. But can you become the center of public interest litigation ? Can the system be taken for a ride in such a manner ? We cannot allow this.

We must be satisfied that you have a committee which scrutinizes the complaints and allows only the genuine ones to be converted into Public Interest Litigation.


Has this matter been examined by the committee ?


We must have the confidence that when CPIL files a petition, it is not prompted by someone who has a vested interest, even though the cause may appear genuine…….


CPIL should not become a proxy litigant. It should not become an instrument in the hands of commercial players “


======================================================


Dear Hon Justices,


[ Shri Ashok Bhushan / Shri R S Reddy / Shri M R Shah ],



Many thanks for accepting Prashant Bhushan as a “ Crusader “, but why depend upon the “ perception “ of a committee, even if consisting of a few knowledgeable persons ?


I urge your Honors , to look up my following E Mail sent to you on 12 June 2019 :

-      Where I suggested :

Ø  To hold every Public Servant “ accountable “ for causing hurt / damage to any citizen , what we urgently need is a “  Service Liability Act Govt Employees ) 2019 “ , which clearly spells out :


#   EXTENT OF HURT / DAMAGE

     Minor injuries  /  Temporary-permanent Disabilities /  Deaths



#   COVERAGE

     Individual Citizen  /  Community  /  Entire Country



#   TIME FRAME

     Short term  /  Medium  Term  /  Long  Term



#   ECONOMIC IMPACT ON THE SUFFERERS

     Mild ( loss of money )/Medium ( loss of assets ) / Severe ( loss of earning capacity )



#   CAUSE

    Negligence ( abdication of responsibility ) / Indecisions on part of a Public Servant

    Poor but honest decisions

    Mala-fide decisions ( with pecuniary gains for decision taker )

======================================================
Ø  

Here is my Conceptual Frame Work for an Online Rating Form :

======================================================
            SLAM  :  Service Liability Assessment Matrix

                 ( an online form / Mobile App , for rating by citizens )


======================================================

Dear Citizen :


Following news just got reported in Media . Please rate it by appropriate selection :

38 people die in 3 days in Punjab after ‘consuming’ illicit liquor, 7 bootleggers arrested


======================================================
Assessment Parameter
Weightage
Most (5)
Certain (4)
Possible(3 )
Negligible(2)
Least ( 1 )
Extent of Hurt
20 %
(100)
Coverage
30 %
( 90)
Time Frame
10 %
(50)
Economic Impact
30 %
( 150)
Perception ( Most likely reason for mishap )
10 %
( 50)

TOTAL    :  440  (  out of a max  score  of  500 )

{ Call it “ AQ = Anger Quotient “   or   “   WS = Wrath Score “ }

======================================================

Let the Service Liability Act Proposed ) , prescribe various levels of punishments ( for Govt Employee/s , determined responsible for the root-cause of this mishap )


A certain time period may be prescribed for the citizens to fill up the form for each mishap


If , my proposal sounds too REVOLUTIONARY / RADICAL ( even for our bold and decisive, PM ), then , to begin with, some NGO ( eg : ADR ? ) may consider implementing this on its own , to create awareness and to educate the public in airing their opinion / feedback , on what lapses they see around them , everyday
======================================================

Dear Hon Justices,


I urge you to issue to the Central Government , an “ Appeal “ to consider my suggestion
