Soudha staff blame ‘inflitrators’ for spurt in porn watching !!!

As the CBI report exposed an open secret that most of the staff watch pornography while at work ,it has also  stirred a hornet’s nest.
  Secretariat employees blame outsiders for this misdeed.One Deputy Secretary told us that most of the original secretariat employees have enough work. The staffing pattern of the secretariat is created in a scientific manner. However politicians and  Corrupt Bureaucrats have cultivated a bad practice of bringing in outsiders who have infiltrated the secretariat  establishments undermining the credibility of original staffs.  Some of these people who manage to establish themselves in high offices have no other work except providing “Escort” service to their bosses. Rest of the time they sit in their boss’s office and chit chat with visitor finding ways and means to make money out of their contacts. Most of these techno-savy pimps manage to get computers with free  access to all website. One should understand that a software called “websense” restrict s most of the computers in vidhana soudha  from accesing porn sites. Hence it is difficult for ordinary clerks to access porn .
 Manju, an employee of secretariat  told that the cases of  porn viewing usually happens in establishments ,not in sections .Come to our section and you will see how much of work we have.How can we watch porn?
It seems, Due to large numbers of infiltrators & waste bodies ,some establishments have becomes  junkyards where they reemploy pensioners  or bring in their favorities who cater to their private needs.
In the first place there is no need for Government offices to have Internet access. All they need is “intranet” and access to government portals and websites. Corrupts officials often gruble that websense restriction prevent them from accessing important websites.(Their “IMPORTANT”websites are criket  websites,,stock market sites, online services provided by railways ,KSRTC. Etc)
Until today the DPAR(E –governance)  department is unable to define a E-administration module. It is more interested in purchasing and distributing state-of-the art computers and accessories  to government  offices. First they should computerize the activities and define procedure. The sachivalaya vahini is just a small  thing and it is only used by junior assistants while E-governeance  is happily distributing computers to all officers without integrating their jobs with e-governance concept. Most of the tob brasses have computers on their table but many of them do not even know to view their attendance sheet  in computers.

Until the Government expline why every government servants needs  internet on their table , the techno-savy PSDs (Pimps on Special Duty) continue to enjoy stock market and porn.

Central Government may increase retirement age from 60 t0 62

A proposal to increase the  age of government employees from 60 to 62 years came to  yesterday but a decision was deferred. All the while the government has been denying any increase in retirement age of central government employees.Minister for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions  V Narayanaswami had ruled out increase in retirement age to a question in Parliament in the winter session this year. Their were rumours that Mr.Ranganath, Chief Secretary of Karnataka ,who was supposed to retired this April, got himself the extension of six month,(on various pretext) as he had credible information about the increase in retirement age.

The government may make the anouncement in the Prime Minister’s 15 August address, his last before elections in 2014.

The , Public Grievances and Pensions has proposed an increase in retirement age of Government employees from 60 years to 62 years, top sources confirmed.2013-14 is considered an election year because of five assembly elections and general elections in May next year.However this move may boomerang on government as unemployed youth may not welcome this move.ThoughtThere are around 50 lakh central government employees in India they do not have the power to make a difference in any specific constituencies. 
In Karnataka ,the then CM Yedyurappa raised the retirement age of state government employees to 60 yr.However he failed to win over any significant number of votes.

 The move is meant to ease the financial burden on the Government in terms of its pension liabilities, sources said.

The retirement age of professors in all central universities was recently raised to 65 years.

D L Sachdev national secretary of All India Trade Union Congress said that his union was totally against increase of retirement age beyond 60. It will hurt the youth especially when the Government is doing nothing to create jobs for them, Sachdev said. Congress affiliated  Indian National Trade Union Congress national president Sanjeeva Reddy said that his union had been demanding increase in retirement age to 62 years and would welcome it.
