ಗುವಾಹಟಿ (ಪಿಟಿಐ): ಈಶಾನ್ಯ ರಾಜ್ಯಗಳ ಜನತೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ನಡೆಯುತ್ತಿರುವ ಹಲ್ಲೆಯನ್ನು ವಿರೋಧಿಸಿ ಮಿಜೋರಾಂ, ನಾಗಾ ಲ್ಯಾಂಡ್, ಮಣಿಪುರ ಹಾಗೂ ಅರುಣಾಚಲ ಪ್ರದೇಶದ ವಿವಿಧ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿ ಸಂಘಟನೆಗಳು ಗುರುವಾರ ಕರೆ ನೀಡಿದ್ದ 12ಗಂಟೆಗಳ ಬಂದ್ ಯಶಸ್ವಿ ಆಗಿದೆ.

ಎಲ್ಲೆಡೆ ಉತ್ತಮ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯೆ ವ್ಯಕ್ತವಾಗಿದ್ದು, ಜನಜೀವನ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗಿ ಅಸ್ತವ್ಯಸ್ತಗೊಂಡಿತು. ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಇಲಾಖೆಗಳು, ಬ್ಯಾಂಕ್, ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಗಳು, ಅಂಗಡಿಗಳು ಬಹುತೇಕ ಮುಚ್ಚಿದ್ದವು. ವಾಹನಗಳ ಸಂಚಾರ ಇರಲಿಲ್ಲ

At North Eastern states they had called a bundh asking all Non North eastern people to eastern people to leave their states and there is no place for outsiders and even their Government is supporting them. But In Karnataka the very Home Minister and Chief Minister begs the outsiders(North-eastern people) to stay in Bangalore and even our Home Minister and Chief Minister goes to North Eastern states and pleads them to come to Bangalore.
Here in Bangalore no one care for kannadiga.In Most MNC's in Bangalore local people do not get jobs.  Even small shops  marts and Hotels hotel give preference to non kannadigas. Forget kannadiga, even Kodavas,Tuluvas, face the same problems. The govt should set up "Karnataka Udyog Academy" (we only hope this academy do not have non-kannadiga member).

No SC/ST professors in JNU, DU despite promotion quota

Akshaya Mukul, TNN Sep 10, 2012, 01.51AM IST

NEW DELHI: Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi UniversityBanaras Hindu University and Allahabad University, all of them directly under the HRD ministry, do not have a single SC/ST professor despite the policy of reservation in promotions.
Moreover, DU and JNU don't have a single SC/ST associate professor (reader). BHU has three SC associate professors, not one from the ST category and 112 SC and 30 ST assistant professors (lecturers), the entry level post.

Times of India, Bangalore Sep 10, 2012


SC/STs well represented in state government jobs



BANGALORE: Karnataka has done well in representation for SC/STs in government jobs. The passage of the constitutional amendment Bill to provide reservations in promotion to SC/STs in government jobs may further boost their chances to be in top posts.
While the constitutionally prescribed norm is 15% representation to SCs and 3% to STs, Karnataka has nearly 17% SCs and over 4% STs in government service.
According to the report on the representation of Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST) in state civil services as on March 31,2011, published by the directorate of economics and statistics from information collected through 85 departments, 92,998 SCs and 24,877 STs are employed by the state government. Of these, 71 departments have more than 15% representation.
While total sanctioned posts in the state is 6,81,115, thefilled-up posts are 5,50,155. This means SCs represent nearly 1.9% (10,475) and STs 1.52% (8,372) of the total work force. Sandeep Shastry, pro-chancellor, Jain University, says the promotion quota bill is justified as there aren't many officers in top ranks.
Government jobs are still most preferred by SC/STs. The increase in awareness and competitiveness among oppressed classes has made SC/STs choose these jobs. Besides coaching classes for civil services examination, there are instances of SC/ST candidates getting jobs in the general category without citing their caste while applying for exams.
Constitutional expert Ravi Varma Kumar said the trend is due to successive state governments providing good incentives. "Reservations in Karnataka were provided for the first time in 1874 and has been continuing since then," he added. Kumar felt the cap of 15% and 3% for SCs and STs should be revised as their total population, according to 2011 census, is 17% and 8%.
The maximum representation of SCs is in education department with 39,428 (16.33%), followed by police with 14,336 (18.35%). Least representation is in population centre with 2 and national highways with 51 employees. STs are more in police 3,577 (4.58%) and education department 10,623 (4.40%).
"The opportunity and ability to use it has been a success story of Karnataka. It's beyond doubt that the competitiveness of SCs are in-depth. A significant percentage of SCs have competed in general/merit quota and succeeded."
Sandeep Shastry | pro-vice chancellor, Jain University

Lokayukta wants ‘flop’ as SPP in HC

Questions are being asked about L Umakanthan’s competence, given that he was reprimanded more than once by Lokayukta judge Sudhindra Rao
By S Shyam Prasad
Posted On Monday, June 18, 2012 Freakin' Awesome! Freakin' Awesome! Freakin' Awesome! Freakin' Awesome! Freakin' Awesome!

The Lokayukta’s recommendation of an advocate, whose earlier work in the anti-corruption watchdog’s trial court was found not up to the mark, as its special public prosecutor in the High Court has raised several eyebrows.
 
L Umakanthan had resigned as SPP of the Lokayukta for Bangalore Urban in February this year, following reports of his being reprimanded by Lokayukta court judge NK Sudhindra Rao. Earlier, the Lokayukta police had rooted for continuation of SPP I S Pramod Chandra but Umakanthan was given the job in December last year. Now, when the five-year tenure of Rajendra Reddy, who has handled high-profile cases including those pertaining to Katta Subramanya Naidu and BS Yeddyurappa, was expected to be extended, Umakanthan’s name has once again been proposed for the job.
 
During his earlier three-month tenure, Umakanthan had failed to recall the names of witnesses in graft cases involving politicians. On some occasions, the court had to get the investigating officer to provide details. On one occasion, Umakanthan failed to name the witnesses in the bribery case involving MLA Y Sampangi. In another instance, during the hearing of the Upper Bhadra Project contract case against BS Yeddyurappa, the judge had taken him to task for failing to answer questions related to the report on the case.
 
 
Not aware of letter: Umakanthan
Though sources confirmed that the letter recommending his name has already been sent to the government, Umakanthanhan said that he was not aware of it.
 
There are around 250 cases related to the Lokayukta in the High Court, including high-profile ones involving various former chief ministers and ministers. The SPP is responsible for handling these cases.
 
Meanwhile, Rajendra Reddy said it was the discretion of the Lokayukta to appoint an SPP. Since the post of Lokayukta is vacant, Upa Lokayukta SB Majage is in charge of administrative decisions. Reddy said, “The SPP can be removed anytime. I have completed five years. However, I came to know of the recommendation letter from other sources. I want to stop attending the cases immediately as I will not be able to do justice in such a scenario.”

 
Strong track record needed
High Court advocate GR Mohan said, “Someone with a strong track record in trial courts should be made the special public prosecutor in the Karnataka High Court. If he has resigned as Lokayukta prosecutor in the trial court, questions will be raised over why he is being recommended to the High Court.”

ವಿಧಾನಸೌಧ ಕಚೇರಿಯ ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಸಿದ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿ!:ಸಿ.ಎಂ. ಸಂಸದೀಯ ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿ ಮುನೇಕೊಪ್ಪ

ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು: ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಗಳ ಸಂಸದೀಯ ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿ ಶಂಕರಪಾಟೀಲ ಮುನೇನಕೊಪ್ಪ ಅವರಿಗೆ ವಿಧಾನ ಸೌಧದದಲ್ಲಿ ಹಂಚಿಕೆಯಾಗಿರುವ ಎರಡು ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳ ನಡುವಿನ ಗೋಡೆಯನ್ನು ಒಡೆದಿರುವುದು ಚರ್ಚೆಗೆ ಗ್ರಾಸವಾಗಿದೆ.

ಸಿಬ್ಬಂದಿ ಮತ್ತು ಆಡಳಿತ ಸುಧಾರಣಾ ಇಲಾಖೆಯು ಪಾಟೀಲ ಅವರಿಗೆ ವಿಧಾನಸೌಧದ ಮೂರನೇ ಮಹಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ 340- 340(ಎ) ಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯ ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳನ್ನು ಹಂಚಿಕೆ ಮಾಡಿದೆ. ಇದರಲ್ಲಿ 340 ಸಂಖ್ಯೆಯ ಕೊಠಡಿಯನ್ನು ಪಾಟೀಲ ಅವರು ಮತ್ತು 340(ಎ) ಕೊಠಡಿಯನ್ನು ಅವರ ಆಪ್ತ ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿ ಬಳಸಲು ಅವಕಾಶವಿದೆ.

ಸೋಮವಾರದಿಂದ ಈ ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳ ನವೀಕರಣ ಕಾರ್ಯವನ್ನು ಲೋಕೋಪಯೋಗಿ ಇಲಾಖೆ ಆರಂಭಿಸಿದೆ. ಮಂಗಳವಾರ ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಯಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಐತಿಹಾಸಿಕ ಕಟ್ಟಡವಾದ ವಿಧಾನಸೌಧದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳ ನವೀಕರಣ ಸಂದರ್ಭದಲ್ಲಿ ತಮ್ಮ ಅನುಕೂಲಕ್ಕೆ ತಕ್ಕಂತೆ ಗೋಡೆಯನ್ನು ಒಡೆದಿರುವುದು ಇದೇ ಮೊದಲು. ವಾಸ್ತು ಪ್ರಕಾರ `ಖಾಸಗಿ ಛೇಂಬರ್` ನಿರ್ಮಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಗೋಡೆಯನ್ನು ಕೆಡವಲಾಗಿದೆ. ನವೀಕರಣಕ್ಕಾಗಿ 15 ಲಕ್ಷ ರೂಪಾಯಿ ವೆಚ್ಚ ಮಾಡಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ ಎನ್ನಲಾಗಿದೆ.

ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳ ನವೀಕರಣ, ಹೊಸ ಪೀಠೋಪಕರಣಗಳ ಅಳವಡಿಕೆಗೆ ಅವಕಾಶವಿದೆ. ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಯ ಬೇಕಾದರೆ ಮೊದಲೇ ಅನುಮತಿ ಪಡೆಯಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಆದರೆ ಅನುಮತಿ ಇಲ್ಲದೆಯೇ ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಯಲಾಗಿದೆ ಎಂದು ಸಿಬ್ಬಂದಿ ಮತ್ತು ಆಡಳಿತ ಸುಧಾರಣಾ ಇಲಾಖೆಯ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಯೊಬ್ಬರು ತಿಳಿಸಿದರು.

ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಬದಲಾವಣೆಯಾಗಿ, ಹೊಸ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ, ಸಚಿವರು ಅಧಿಕಾರಕ್ಕೆ ಬಂದಾಗ ತಮಗೆ ಹಂಚಿಕೆಯಾಗಿರುವ ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಬಂಗಲೆಗಳನ್ನು ಲಕ್ಷಾಂತರ ರೂಪಾಯಿ ವೆಚ್ಚದಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಸ್ತು ಪ್ರಕಾರ ನವೀಕರಣಗೊಳಿಸುವುದು ಹಿಂದಿನಿಂದಲೂ ನಡೆದಿದೆ.

ಆದರೆ ವಿಧಾನ ಸೌಧದಲ್ಲಿನ ಕೊಠಡಿಗಳನ್ನು ವಾಸ್ತು ಪ್ರಕಾರ ನವೀಕರಣಗೊಳಿಸಿದ ಉದಾಹರಣೆ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಸಚಿವಾಲಯದ ಮೂಲಗಳು ತಿಳಿಸಿವೆ.

ಖಂಡನೆ: ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಯ ಪ್ರತೀಕವಾಗಿರುವ ವಿಧಾನಸೌಧ ವಾಸ್ತುಶಿಲ್ಪಕ್ಕೆ ಹೆಸರಾಗಿದೆ. ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆದು ತಮಗೆ ಇಷ್ಟಬಂದಂತೆ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಅನುಮತಿ ನೀಡಿದವರು ಯಾರು? ಎಂದು ಮಾಜಿ ಸಂಸದೆ ತೇಜಸ್ವಿನಿಗೌಡ ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದರು.

ಸುದ್ದಿಗಾರರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಾತನಾಡಿದ ಅವರು, `ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಕಚೇರಿಯ ಕೊಠಡಿಯನ್ನು ಮನಬಂದಂತೆ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ಮಾಡಲು ಅವಕಾಶವಿಲ್ಲ. ಹಂಚಿಕೆಯಾಗಿರುವ ಕೊಠಡಿ ಹೇಗಿದೆಯೋ ಅದೇ ರೀತಿ ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಬೇಕು, ಇಷ್ಟವಿಲ್ಲದಿದ್ದರೆ ತಿರಸ್ಕರಿಸಬೇಕು. ಅದು ಬಿಟ್ಟು ವಾಸ್ತು ಹೆಸರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಯುವುದು ಸರಿಯಲ್ಲ` ಎಂದು ಟೀಕಿಸಿದರು.

`ಗೋಡೆ ಒಡೆಯುವಂತೆ ನಾನು ಸೂಚನೆ ನೀಡಿಲ್ಲ, ಲೋಕೋಪಯೋಗಿ ಇಲಾಖೆಯವರು ಕೊಠಡಿಯನ್ನು ನವೀಕರಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ ಅಷ್ಟೇ` ಎಂದು ಮುನೇನಕೊಪ್ಪ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯಿಸಿದರು.

Vidana soudha -The Edifice of Sin



Whenever there is a mistake in the village, taluk or District level Administration people look toward higher authority i.e state level administration to rectify their problems. But in Karnataka state the Administration setup in the power centre has become completely useless.
The Karnataka Government Secretariat operates from “Vidhana Soudha” a magnificent stone building which gives a good impression about the government. Little do the people know that behind this magnificent stone wall lies an outdated and faulty machinery which can only slow down, not speed up the development work.
However, as the media’s have becoming ever vigilant, skeletons have started to tumble out of the cupboard. It has revealed the real faces of people who want us to stop using Face book. These people talk against facebok, but enjoy Porn themselves. It is same with all the bastards who speak about morality. Mr.Nehru Olekar the president of the committee which was appointed to investigate the Karnataka Assembly porngate scandal revealed that 10 more legislators too watched those clips.
Few days back another daily revealed Tax payer has to spend 80 lakhs per month to pay off the wages of the wages of people working at Chief Minister’s office. Many people defended it by saying the CM need so many people because he has to manage 11 portfolios. The truth is that all these 11 departments have got Secretaries, Deputy Secretaries, Under Secretaries, Section officers and other staffs. CM need not add to this army of professionals by bringing in bus conductors, semi-politicians, teachers, second division clerks and last not the least…… brokers(of all sorts)!. Well I don’t know about CM, but I have noticed that some personal establishments have started keeping brokers  too. Well, they are called ‘officers on special Duty!’ There job is to carry an iPod and roam around Secretaries/Ministers. The office of CM is just a classic example of this rotten state of  affairs. Other departments of Secretariat too are not far behind. Just go to Chief Secretary’s office down the lane, you will find an OSD!

The departments in the secretariat function as usual. The funny thing in the Karnataka government is that there is no staff where it is required. Taluk offices, D.C offices, Revenue departments, Agriculture department…. .You go anywhere, they say”sir, what can we do, we do not have staff! Government is recruiting so many people every year, where does the staff go?  These people go to vidhana soudha on deputation and stay there for eternity! Particularly this SDA’s. These sluts will never leave Vidhana soudha once they come in!. Some of them even sacrifice their promotion!.
Well, I agree, the quality of staff in Karnataka government Secretariat is third Rate. Most of the officers are promoted Typists/stenos. But that can improved by better training.
But alas, The Karnataka Secretariat has a training center which is used only as a dustbin to accommodate unwanted/useless Additional Secretaries.
Ok, these promoted typist, go up to become Additional Secretaries, some day they might end up becoming Secretaries to Govt(a privilege which is reserved to people of IAS cadre). Now as the quality of IAS is dwindling, these group C promotes want to create the Post of Special Secretary to Government. Some day these Special Secretaries would manage to keep the post of the regular Secretaries vacant and stay “in-charge” of the whole department!
Why this happens? These members of Bureaucracy and Judiciary never retire with Honor. These people always manage to get some Government appointment. With their worn out brain, they need someone to prepare reports which are ultimately signed by them. There, these stenos and clerks come handy. In past the clerks remained intellectually in-charge. Now they want to become physically in charge.
In Vidhana soudha Officers become Secretaries and Deputy Secretaries when they become old. So they often Lack the zeal to work constructively. They just want to ensure that “somehow work goes on”. The KAS officers (state cadre) who come to Vidhana soudha on deputation, either want to make money or they want to stay in bangalore.They too lack interest in Administration. So they rely heavily on stenos and typists. These stenos and typists monopolize the offices. In the secretamriats the longer you stay the stronger you become! The stupid Secretaries and Deputy Secretaries won’t let them go and those people too won’t go because lack of knowledge and the creation of Comfort zones hold them back from exploring new horizons. So these typists and stenos somehow manage to hold on to powerful offices. Even when they get promotion, they upgrade their posts and stay in the same office doing the same works. This upgradation syndrome has become the biggest malady in the Karnataka state Secretariat. Govt pays higher wage for the same work!. If you are paying the wages of engineer for the work of sweeper then what is the benefit you are getting?  Who cares? It is the Taxpayers who ultimately bears the burden! Mr.S.V.Ranganath, Chief Secretary, who is heralded as a best administrator by his admirer has kept Two Section officers, Four people of the rank of Under Secretaries, One Deputy Secretaries and One Joint Secretary. It s very funny because ,in personal establishments no decisions are made, No  Government orders are signed by anybody other than Chief Secretary or his PS. (Funny but true, there are two PS’s). Post of Section officers and Under Secretaries are very important post which are supposed have decision making power and Signing Authority. While there is dearth of Officers in the Karnataka Government ,Mr S.V.Ranganath has kept  so many
Officers to sweep floor, take his phone calls and photocopy the Annul Performance reports !. As it is not enough he is availing the Service of an OSD, who is a bank manager by profession advices CS on subjects like Science and technology and Public Administration!
As on Jan 2012 ,there were one joint Secretary, two Deputy Secretaries, Four Under Secretaries, Two Section Officer and Five peons! .Oficers outnumber the peons!  Even the steno has become indispensable! There are more officers than peons. Can you beat it? If an honest bureaucrat like Mr.SV ranganath can promote such deviation of basic percepts of an organisation, right under his nose then we cannot expect adherence to law from corrupt officers. There is no hierarchy, No chain of command, No division of labor, no work flow chart! You name any aspect of a sound management, it is not there. It is all about good people and bad work.
It may look funny, But that is the quality of IAS in Karnataka. How do you expect the Administration to be upright? These idiots go on to attend so many training programmes at home and abroad. Yet the Karnataka Government Secretariat remains lawless. The government of Karnataka released a Transfer Guideline for its employees vide  G.O. no DPAR 4 STR 2001 Dt:22-11-2001       But it left out the employees of Karnataka Government Secretariat. For the employees of the secretariat it prescribed some guidelines. However these guidelines are not binding.Hence nobody follow it.Few sections and posts have become the private property of some individualsSardar Patel had called Civil service as the Steel frame of Administration. But the steel frame is rusting (due to heat of pimps who manage to get foot hold in high offices).
Karnataka has gone to Dogs because vidhana soudha the seat of Power has become a dogshed. But now it is impossible to bring change. Every one has become strongly rooted in their post as well as in ther conviction. Old bureaucrats,Judges, Senior Typist, everyone have developed their spear of influence by twisting the rules and regulations. As I said earlier …..it is a dogshed. We used to read in the history that eunuchs in the royal harem used to control state administration. Now that holds good for the Karnataka state Secretariat as well.

Shameless bureaucrats go on foreign tour!



Courtesy:TOI, 24-4-2012
BANGALORE: Despite the government ban on foreign tours by bureaucrats and netas, a group of IAS officers and an adviser to the CM have left for San Francisco and Taiwan.

Economic adviser to CM, KV Raju, infrastructure development principal secretary Rajkumar Khatri, finance principal secretary LV Nagarajan, e-governance principal secretary MN Vidyashankar and Shashidhar from Udyog Mitra left on Sunday for a eight-day tour in connection with the Global Investors' Meet II.

In view of drought, the CM directed officials and politicians not to go on tours for two months. On Saturday, additional chief secretary K Jairaj issued a ban order on foreign tours for the said period. When TOI contacted Jairaj, he said he didn't have details of their tour. "I don't know when they left.''

Social welfare minister A Narayanaswamy, meanwhile, has left on a personal tour of the US with his family.


Editors footnote
These days many bureaucrats from Karnataka are heading to bangkok.Last year some  cheapsters from Irrigation department had a gala time in Bangkok at the expense of Government. Today communication has improved so much that we can have video conferences sitting in the comfort our offices. We can get study reports,visuals everything from abroad right on table yet these idiots keep going abroad an the pretext of study tours,discussions etc etc.

Karnataka Pay Commission : More details about pay, allowances, retirement benefits

After six years, the State government on Wednesday proposed to effect revision on salaries of its employees, based on the recommendations of the official pay committee constituted in June 2011.
As per the committee’s recommendation, the total hike in salaries is 22.5 pc, inclusive of 15 pc interim relief, which was announced in November, 2011. 

The hike is expected to cost the State government an additional expenditure of Rs 4,450 crore.
The revised pay scales, allowances and pensions which are proposed to come into effect from April 1, will have 76.75 pc DA merged with the basic pay. 
The 76.75 pc includes the pending total accumulated DA of around 69.5 pc from 2006 to December 2011 plus around 7.5 pc accumulated DA from January 2012 to June 2012. From June onwards, the 7.5 pc DA will continue as usual.  
Four slabs
The salaries have been divided into four slabs – for group ‘D’ employees, first division assistants, class I officers, and KAS and posts occupied by non-IAS officers. 
Group D workers (minimum pay scale) who were being paid Rs 4,800 in Bangalore city will now be paid around Rs 12,400 (9,600 basic + 25 pc HRA + Rs 300 CCA). 
The same worker in ‘B’ class cities/towns will get 16 pc HRA; those in ‘C‘ class cities/towns will get 10 pc HRA; and those in ‘D’ class cities/towns will get 7 pc HRA. They will not be entitled to CCA. KAS officers who occupy posts which could be occupied by KAS officers and non-IAS officers in cities who come under the maximum payscale slab were being paid a basic salary of Rs 39,900. 
As per the proposed revision, they will now get a basic salary of Rs 79,800 plus. If 25 pc HRA plus Rs 400 CCA is added, they will get a salary of Rs 1 lakh or more. There are around 12 lakh government employees including pensioners. 
The Karnataka State Government Employees’ Association president U D Narasimhaiah said that the pay revision was disappointing and that the Association would reject the proposal.
“The government has only effected 22.5 pc salary hike, while we had demanded a 40 pc hike. With the growing inflation, the plight of government employees is bad, and we have been met out injustice. The chief minister should set this right,” he said.
Proposed salary revision* Minimum pay (basic) as in 2006 – Rs 4,800; proposed pay – Rs 9,600 (Group ‘D’ employees)
* Minimum pay (basic) as in 2006 – Rs 7,275; proposed pay – Rs 14,550 (I Division Assistants)
* Maximum pay (basic) as in 2006 – Rs 28,275; proposed pay – Rs 56,550 (Class I officers)
* Max pay (basic) as in 2006 – Rs 39,900; proposed pay – Rs 79,800 (KAS and posts occupied by non-IAS officers)
Allowances
* House Rental Allowance, classification of cities, towns, other places reduced from six to four groups. Minimum rate HRA increased from 6 pc to 7 pc
* CCA increased from Rs 80 – Rs 300 to Rs 250 – Rs 400

“ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಕೆಲಸ ಎಂಬ ದೇವರ ಕೆಲಸ”


ಸರ್ಕಾರಿ ಕೆಲಸ ದೇವರ ಕೆಲಸ ಎಂದು ಪಲಕ ಹೊತ್ತ ಭವ್ಯ ಕಟ್ಟಡವನ್ನು ಜನಸಾಮಾನ್ಯರು ಬಹಳ ಭಕ್ತಿಭಾವದಿಂದ ಕಾಣುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಅದರ ಗರ್ಭಗುಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮೂವರು ಶಾಸಕರು ನಡೆಸಿದ ಅನಾಚಾರ ದೃಶ್ಯಮಾಧ್ಯಮದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಯಲಾದ ಬೆನ್ನಿಗೇ ವಿಧಾನಸೌಧದೊಳಗಿರುವ ಆಡಳಿತ ಯಂತ್ರ ಎಷ್ಟು ಶಿಥಿಲವಾಗಿದೆ ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು ಉದಾಹರಣೆ ಸಹಿತ ದಿ ೧೬-೨೨೦೧೨ ರಲ್ಲಿ ಪತ್ರಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿ  ಪ್ರಕಟಿಸಿರುವ ಲೇಖನದ ಮೂಲಕ ವಿಜಯಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ಪತ್ರಿಕೆಯು  ನಾಡಿನ ಜನರ ಮುಂದಿಟ್ಟಿದೆ.

ಈ ಶಿಥಿಲ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥೆಯೊಳಗೆ  ಒಂದು ರೀತಿಯ ಪಾಳೆಗಾರಿಕೆಯಂತಹಾ ಆಡಳಿತ ಶೈಲಿ ರೂಪುಗೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಿದೆ..  ಲೇಖನದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿರುವಂತೆ ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ ನೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ  ಕೊರತೆಯಿಂದಾಗಿ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದು ರೀತಿಯ ಪಟ್ಟಭದ್ರ ಹಿತಾಸಕ್ತಿಗಳು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಯಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾರಾದರೂ ನೌಕರ ಒಂದು ಲಾಭದಾಯಕ ಎನ್ನುವ ಹುದ್ದೆಯನ್ನ ಭದ್ರವಾಗಿ ಹಿಡಿದುಕೊಂಡರೆ ಆ ಪಟ್ಟವನ್ನು ಆತ ಬಿಟ್ಟುಕೊಡುವ ಅಗತ್ಯವೇ ಇಲ್ಲ. ಆತ ನಿವೃತ್ತಿಯಾಗುವವರೆಗೆ  ಅಥವಾ ಇನ್ಯಾರೋ ಆ ಹುದ್ದೆಯನ್ನು ಖರೀದಿಸುವವರೆಗೆ ಆ ಹುದ್ದೆ ಅವನ ಆಧೀನದಲ್ಲೇ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆ. ಆತನಿಗೆ ಬಡ್ತಿ ಇಲ್ಲವೋ ಎಂದು ನೀವು ಕೇಳಬಹುದು. ಈ ಬಡ್ತಿಯ ಸೌಲಭ್ಯಗಳನ್ನೂ ಪಡೆದು ಅದರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಹಳೆಯ ಹುದ್ದೆಯನ್ನುನ್ನೂ ಉಳಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿರುವ ಧೋರ್ತರು ಕೂಡ ಇಲ್ಲಿದ್ದಾರೆ. You can’t have the cake and eat it too “ಎಂಬ ನಾಣ್ನುಡಿಯನ್ನು ಸಹಾ ಸುಳ್ಳುಮಾಡಿರುವ  ಮಹಾತ್ಮರು ಸಚಿವಾಲಯದಲ್ಲಲದೆ ಇನ್ನೆಲ್ಲೂ ನಿಮಗೆ ಸಿಗಲಾರರು. ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಪೂರಕವಾದ ನಿಯಮಾವಳಿಗಳನ್ನುಸಹಾ ಇಲ್ಲಿನ ಪಟ್ಟಭದ್ರರು ರೂಪಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಅದರಲ್ಲಿ ಮುಖ್ಯವಾದದ್ದು upgradation ಎಂಬ ವಾಮಮಾರ್ಗ. ತನ್ನ ಕುರ್ಚಿಗೆ ಅಂಟಿಕೊಂಡೇ ಮೇಲೆಮೇಲೆ ಏರುವ ವಿದ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ರಾಜಕಾರಣಿಗಳು ಇಲ್ಲಿನ ನೌಕರರಿಂದಲೇ ಕಲಿಬಹುದಾಗಿದೆ.  ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕಿರಿಯ ಸಹಾಯಕನಾಗಿ ಅಥವ ಟೈಪಿಸ್ಟ ಆಗಿ ಸೇರಿ ಆ ಸ್ಥಳದಲ್ಲಿ ತೃಪ್ತಿಯೂ ಅಥವಾ ಇನ್ನೇನೋ ಇದೆ ಎಂದು ಒಬ್ಬ ನೌಕರ ಅಂದು ಕೊಂಡರೆ ಅದೇ ಜಾಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಆಪ್ ಗ್ರೇಡ್ ಆಗಿ ಅಲ್ಲೇ ಸ್ಟೆನೋ  ಮತ್ತು ಹಿರಿಯ ಸಹಾಯಕ ಆಗಬಹುದು. ಕೊನೆಗೆ  ಇನ್ನೂ ಬಡ್ತಿ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿದರೆ ಅದೇ ಶಾಖೆಗೆ ಶಾಖಾಧಿಕಾರಿ ಆಗಿ ನಂತರ ಅಲ್ಲೇ ಅಧೀನ ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿ ಕೂಡ ಆಗಬಹುದು. ೨೦೦೧ರ ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ ನೀತಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ಇತರ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ನೌಕರರಿಗೆ ಕಟ್ಟುನಿಟ್ಟಿನ ನಿಯಮರೂಪಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆಯಾದರೂ ಸಚಿವಾಲಯದ ನೌಕರರಿಗೆ ಸಂಬಂದಿಸಿದಂತೆ ಕೇವಲ ಮಾರ್ಗಸೂಚಿಯನ್ನು ಮಾತ್ರಾ ನೀಡಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಅಂದರೆ, ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ ನೀತಿಯಿಂದ ಸಚಿವಾಲಯದ ನೌಕರರನ್ನು ಹೊರತುಪಡಿಸಿಲಾಗಿದೆ .ಈ ಮಾರ್ಗಸೂಚಿಯನ್ನು ಸಹಾ ಕಟ್ಟುನಿಟ್ಟಾಗಿ ಪಾಲಿಸುವ ಸತ್ಸಂಪ್ರದಾಯವನ್ನು ಸಿಬ್ಬಂದಿ ಮತ್ತು ಆಡಳಿತ ಸುಧಾರಣೆ ಇಲಾಖೆ ಹೊಂದಿಲ್ಲ.ನಿಜವಾಗಿ ನೋಡಿದರೆ ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ  ನೀತಿಯಿಂದ ತೊಂದರೆಗೊಳಗಾಗುವವರು ಗಂಟುಮೂಟೆ ಕಟ್ಟಿಕೊಂಡು ಊರೂರು ಅಲೆಯುವ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರ ಇಲಾಖೆಯ ನೌಕರರು. ಇವರುಗಳನ್ನು ಒಂದೇ ಊರಲ್ಲಿ ನೆಮ್ಮದಿಯಾಗಿ ಇರಗೊಡದ ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ ನೀತಿ ಅಯೋಗ್ಯರಿಗೆ ಸಂಪಾಗಿ ಇರಲು ಅನುಕೂಲ ಕಲ್ಪಿಸಿರುವುದು ವಿಪರ್ಯಾಸವೇ ಸರಿ.

ದೀಪದ ಕೆಳಗೆ ಕತ್ತಲು ಎಂಬ ಸತ್ಯ ತಿಳಿದಿರುವ ಕೆಲವು ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರ ಇಲಾಖೆಯ ಪ್ರಭಾವಿ ನೌಕರರು ಇಲ್ಲಿಗೆ  ಡೆಪ್ಯುಟೇಶನ್ ಎಂಬ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ವಾಮಮಾರ್ಗದಲ್ಲಿ  ಬಂದು ಹತ್ತಾರು ವರ್ಷಗಳಿಂದ ತಳ ಊರಿದ್ದಾರೆ.ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಯವರ ಕಚೇರಿಯಲ್ಲೇ ಮುನ್ನೂರು ಮಂದಿ ತಳ ಊರಿರುವ ಸುದ್ದಿ ಈಗಾಗಲೇ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮದಲ್ಲಿ ಚರ್ಚೆಗೆ ಗ್ರಾಸವಾಗಿರುವುದನ್ನು ಓದುಗರು ಗಮನಿಸಿರಬಹುದು.
ಡೆಪ್ಯುಟೇಶನ್ ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲಾ ಎಂದಾದಲ್ಲಿ  OOD (officer on other duty) ಎಂಬ ಮಾರ್ಗದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಂದು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಸೇರಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಇದರಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನವರು ಮಂತ್ರಿಗಳ ಮತ್ತು ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳ ಆತಿ ಅತೀ ಆಪ್ತರು.
 ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಗಟ್ಟಿಯಾಗಿ ತಳೂರಿರುವ ನೌಕರರನ್ನು ಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿಗಳಾಗಿರುವ ಹಿರಿಯ ಐ ಎ ಎಸ್ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳು ಸಹಾ ಅಲ್ಲಾಡಿಸಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯ ಇಲ್ಲ. ಹಾಗೇನಾದರೂ ಮಾಡಿದರೆ ಮಾನ್ಯ ಜನಪ್ರತಿನಿಧಿಗಳ ಮೂಲಕ  ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಯಿಂದಲೇ ಶಿಫಾರಸ್ಸು ಪಡೆದು ಮತ್ತೆ ಅದೇ ಸ್ಥಳಕ್ಕೆ ಬಂದು ಕುಳಿತುಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ಚತುರರಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಕೆಸರಿಗೆ ಕಲ್ಲು ಹೊಡೆದು ಮುಖಕ್ಕೆ ಸಿಡಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದು ಏಕೆ ಎಂದುಕೊಂಡು ಹಿರಿಯ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳು ಸಹಾ ಇಲ್ಲಿನ ವ್ಯವಸ್ತೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಹಸ್ತಕ್ಷೇಪ ಮಾಡಲು ಹೋಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.ಇದು  ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ಇಂದಿನ ದುಸ್ತಿತಿ.ಈ ಸ್ತಿತಿಗೆ ಕಾರಣವಾಗಿರುವುದು ದುಷ್ಟರ ದುಷ್ಟತನವಲ್ಲ. ಒಳ್ಳೆಯವರ ನಿಷ್ಕ್ರಿಯತೆ !.

  

ವಿಜಯಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಈ ವರದಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲವು ತಪ್ಪುಗಳು ನುಸುಳಿದಂತಿವೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಸರಿಸಲಾಗಿರುವ ಕೆಲವು ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ  ಇತ್ತೀಚಿಗೆ ಆ ಹುದ್ದೆಗೆ ಬಂದವರು,ಹಿಂದೆಯೇ ನಿವೃತ್ತರಾಗಿ ಹೋದವರ ಹೆಸರುಗಳಿವೆ. ಹಾಗೆಂದಮಾತ್ರಕ್ಕೆ ಈ ಲೇಖನ ತಪ್ಪು ಎಂದಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಮಾಹಿತಿ ಕಲೆಹಾಕುವಲ್ಲಿ ಇನ್ನು ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಶ್ರಮವಹಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ ಈ ಪ್ರಮಾದವನ್ನು ಸುಲಭವಾಗಿ ತಪ್ಪಿಸಬಹುದಿತ್ತು.

ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ತಪ್ಪು ಎಂದರೆ ಈ ಜನರ ಎತ್ತಂಗಡಿಗೆ ಮುಖ್ಯಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿಯವರ ಕಚೇರಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಪಟ್ಟಿ ತಯಾರಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿದೆ ಎಂದು ಬರೆದಿರುವುದು.ಇದು ಅತ್ಯಂತ  ಹಾಸ್ಯಸ್ಪದವಾಗಿದೆ. ಯಾಕೆಂದರೆ ಅಂತಹಾ ಪಟ್ಟಿಯೇನಾದರು ಪ್ರಾಮಾಣಿಕವಾಗಿ ತಯಾರಾದರೆ ಮೊದಲು ಖಾಲಿ ಆಗುವುದು ಅವರ ಕಚೇರಿಯೇ!. ಸಚಿವಾಲಯದಲ್ಲಿರುವ  ಓ ಓ ಡಿ, ಡೆಪ್ಯುಟೇಶನ್, ಅಪ್ ಗ್ರೆಡೆಶನ್ ಮುಂತಾದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ನ್ಯೂನ್ಯತೆಗಳನ್ನು ಮುಖ್ಯಕಾರ್ಯದರ್ಶಿಯ ಕಚೇರಿ ಪ್ರತಿಪಲಿಸುವಂತಿದೆ.



ಇನ್ನು, ಸಚಿವಾಲಯಕ್ಕೆ ಒಂದು ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆ ನೀತಿಯೇ ಇಲ್ಲ ಎಂದಾದರೆ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಟ್ರಾನ್ಸ್ಫರ್ಗಳು ಹೇಗೆ ನಡೆಯುತ್ತವೆ ಎಂಬ ಕುತೂಹಲ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಕಾಡಬಹುದು.ವರ್ಗಾವಣೆಗೆ ರೀತಿ,ನೀತಿ ಏನೂ ಇಲ್ಲದ ಜಾಗದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಸಹಾ ಕೆಲವರು ಮರದಿಂದ ಮರಕ್ಕೆ ಜಿಗಿಯುವ ಮಂಗನಷ್ಟೇ ಸಲೀಸಾಗಿ ಇಲಾಖೆಯಿಂದ ಇಲಾಖೆಗೆ ಜಿಗಿಯುತ್ತಾರೆ .ಇದು ಹೇಗೆ ಗೊತ್ತೇ?
