[IAC#RG] We Want Justice

ankit khetan — 2013-05-17T13:13:22

Whether we will get justice? Some say we are approx 3 crore.
Whether really we are only 3 crore, we don’t know. You Citizen of India are
lucky that you have census, which counts each one of you. But we are not
counted by any one.

 We are those pending
cases in Court of India who doesn’t know that whether we will get justice any
day or not. Most of us are those unlucky one who doesn’t know that whether we
can see the person who has registered us till end of case.

India is no more a place where dreams are fulfilled we all
are accepting this fact sooner or later. But it is also no more a place where
justice is delivered.

Oh you are thinking that your case solved but when solving a
case takes more than 20 years than it is not solved case rather it is closed
case.

Why Law makers, Bureaucrates forgets the situation before
joining service which they have to face?

Who will give us justice?

Whether we the devdasis will remain it forever?

Whether Rapists, Acid attackers, porn site host……runs their

The brazenness with which the United Progressive Alliance has interfered

intact when hopefully, someday, this Government and its Prime Minister bow
out of office. While the story of the interference of the Prime Minister’s

*BY EMAIL*

Sir

Shri Ambreesh Pandey has complained to this office that the Customs Dept is
disposing of confiscated weapons in breach of MHA's prescribed norms.

A Public Grievance concerning this had been lodged by him on the PGPORTAL
which is registered at *MINHA/E/2012/00809 *and is pending with you since
04-July-2012.

It has been reported that MHA is demanding a substantial bribe from the
Complainant to attend to his registered grievance. You may kindly take
careful notice that the time to dispose of registered public grievances is
2 months, whereas Mr. Pandey's grievance is pending for over 10 months,
lending credence to his contention that the Union Home Secretary is
demanding a bribe to process his complaint and resolve his grievance filed
as a patriotic Hindustani in the national interest.

In the circumstances, it would be fit if you kindly resolved Mr. Pandey's

*Millions of Indians  think that  it is now the time  for Dr. Manmohan

*Dr. Manmohan Singh  is guilty of facilitating corruption and nepotism in
the country  by his inept leadership.  Some people are corrupt for amassing
money  and some people do not mind  tolerating corruption for holding on to
the position.  Both the category should be considered as equally corrupt.*

*Even now, Dr. Manmohan Singh can win back some friends and admirers and
find a better place for himself in history, by owning responsibility for
the deplorable  corrupt conditions in the country and moving away.   On the
other hand, if he would think that holding on to power and position and
remaining loyal to his party president   at any cost , should be the be all

Learned Attorney General Sir,

Sir,

As a leader of Bar and our team of law officers, I had expected guidance
from you sir, in discharge of my professional duties, not withstanding the
fact that we deal matters entrusted to us independently. Having reflected
upon what is being debated in public domain for a past couple of days and

straight and take the liberty of reminding you of the fact which are within
your knowledge and of which the corroboration exists.

The trigger point of this letter is the remark made by you to me, on Friday

Carry the struggle forward until the guilty are punished 
  
Dear friends 
  
We are not planning to have the Govindpuri public meeting on 6th due to developments related to Sajjan Kumar's trial. LRS has been involved in fighting for punishing the guilty of 1984 for several years. I am sending you an invite from the Secretary of LRS below. Kindly do attend.  
  
Nirpreet Kaur, one of the steadfast fighters for punishing the guilty of 1984, is on an indefinite hunger strike at the Jantar Mantar since Friday May 3 morning. She has resorted to this fast, following the scandalous acquittal of Congress leader Sajjan Kumar by the courts in a case. All women and men of conscience are extremely angered at this denial of justice and Delhi has witnessed mass protests by people, political parties, as well as political and social organisations.

[IAC#RG] India's rigged EVM voting machines

Sarbajit Roy — 2013-05-04T14:35:10

Friends

Yesterday IAC conducted a "poll".
Immediately there was a flurry of abuse saying that the results were
impossible.

For decades the Congress and BJP have been rigging the elections using
their  "black box" EVM voting machines. Then somebody "stole" one of these
machines and what was an open secret ("insecure EVMs") got confirmed.

Previous CECs like Lygdoh and Krishnamurthy were said to be part of this
racket and had apparently even opened a Joint Venture to conduct this
rigging business after their retirement. Other CECs and ECs were part of
the Sai Baba fixing network which controlled BOTH the Congress and the BJP.

Now due to complaints of citizens the ECI has come up with a new device to
buy time. *The so-called "paper trail" EVMs. This is also a fraud. Don't
believe it.*

Dear Mr. Krishnan

INTERESTING!

You would love Mr. Joseph Leyland's treatise - nearest biography?? - 'coz
you agree with his views. Good for you. Why can't there be an opposing
view? Someone who disagrees with you need not be ignorant, should (s)he?

All what you have said may well be true. But the fact remains he sacrificed
a reasonably good, well-off life to struggle for Indian freedom. This to
the extent that  his family lost out good but none ever gained a morsel out
of it all. Went down the tube, instead. Do you want to deny that as well?
BANIA?! - he sure was a bad one! How many amongst today's frustrated and
"well-off" gentry would be willing to do a 10th of what he did, for nearly
a similar cause: Free us from this bondage?

We have few icons in our country. We have plenty more iconoclasts! What
they forget is that the icons they are target are after all human. With
human emotions, frailties and fallible. Who is at fault to make such a

Shri N.K.Gupta
CPIO DPS-DAE

01-05-2013

Please find appended below an email from
Dr. KS Pradeep Kumar Head RSSD of BARC
received today in reply to your email to him.

He clearly states that he has nothing to do
with the matter or the concerned file.

It is therefore unclear to me how you could
have asked Dr.Sandeep Gupta to visit Mumbai
without even confirming that the file(s) exist(s).

Although Dr Sandeep Gupta shall correspond
on his own on this email, it is clear to the public
of India that you did not comply with CIC's order
to satisfy yourself about the extent of the record.

Such emails reinforce IAC's belief that  DAE is
trying to lure Dr. Sandeep Gupta to Mumbai.

I request you to kindly locate the files without
further delay as the onus to provide the information
is on you.

yours faithfully

Ambrish Pandey is a focused RTI exponent. This time he has exposed how the
Congress MP Vikrambhai Madaam from Jamnagar was favoured by the Secretary
Ministry of I&B just before the Gujarat assembly elections with the release
of a Rs.100 crore PR package.

On 02.May.2012 Vikrambhai Madaam Congress MP writes off to Secy (I&B)

achievements of Central Govt (code for Congress Party)  must be urgently

India sings peace to an occupier
The same old scenario has unfolded again: China quietly occupies a
strategic area and a diffident India is left preaching the virtues of
diplomacy and peace. When China set out to eliminate the historical buffer
with India by invading Tibet, New Delhi opposed Lhasa’s desperate plea for
a discussion at the United Nations. And when China stealthily took control
of the Switzerland-size Aksai Chin plateau and began building the
Tibet-Xinjiang highway through it, India’s first response was to send a
démarche asking Beijing naively as to how it despatched workers to Indian
territory without seeking visas for them.

Whereas the People’s Republic of China was born in and built on blood,
modern India was founded on a continuing myth—that it won independence
through non-violence, not because Britain was in no position after the
devastation wrought by World War II to hold on to its colonies. It was not
until 1962 that India woke up reluctantly to Leon Trotsky’s warning: “*Y

Dear Members

A serious situation has arisen, I request all anti-corruption fighters and

The Dept of Atomic Energy, a completely incompetent organisation floating
on oceans of unaccounted public funds, has persisted with its attempts to
dissuade RTI activists attempting to enquire how public funds are spent by
them.

The latest such target is Dr. Sandeep Gupta, a Gen Sec of India Against

don't make the same old mistake of blindly trusting the Congress whenever
