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,
Hemen Parekh

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

RE: SUGGESTIONS OF AN ORDINARY CITIZEN


Dear Gurudatta,


Many thanks for your kind words


Ever since BJP came to power , I have been sending my suggestions to several Union Ministers , ( including FM / PM ) / MPs / MLAs / Secretaries / Business Leaders / Economists / Editors / TV Anchors / ASSOCHAM / FICCI / CII etc

But one person who wrote back ( 3 / 4 times ) was Amitabh Kant - Secretary , DIPP ( now, CEO of NITI Aayog ), who wrote as follows :

{ I cannot find his email , in which he invited me to visit Delhi to give a talk to all senior officers of DIPP }

Apart from the above mentioned responses , Shri Prakash Javdekar replied to " Oracle has spoken " blog/mail with just one word , " GOOD "

I don't remember which , but he did respond to one more mail with " Noted "  !

In any case , I appreciate your help in spreading that page-full of hyperlinks to your friends / contacts

I believe , as a result of your initiative , the " Total Blogs Pageview " counter , yesterday went up by almost 540 !

If , in turn , your friends / contacts too , forward these links to their friends / contacts , and share the same on their personal pages / profiles on Social Media ,  then it is possible to build up an Online Movement

Suggestions of an ordinary citizen :

Dear Hemenji

My apologies for Noshirji Kapadia's age being attributed to you. Secondly, going by your mental capacity you are just 38, not 83.

May your cerebral brilliance continue to serve national causes. My awe and respect for your work make me spontaneously use expressions which may give a tinge of an exaggeration but they are far from flattery. Your sharing is full of meat, no flab, to the point, without any long-winding descriptions or platitudes, most suited for our time-starved generation.

I would love to see you on various consultative bodies, being invited by the chambers of commerce & industries and, yes, by the TED Talks forum also. I earnestly pray for these things to happen because I believe in the value of your well-thought-out implementable suggestions, backed with facts & figures.

Just for my personal information, could you please clarify if you have been contacted or invited by any of the government departments/officials after going through your suggestions? I expect this to happen because you send them to the decision makers and if they help them perform better and show results, the credit goes to them directly.

I have noted your inputs for action by the recipients of these emails and will certainly share them too for maximizing the effect.

Best wishes and warm regards = Gurudatt

Dear Gurudatta,

Many thanks for these flattering words ( which , I don't deserve ) and for forwarding these links to our ex-colleagues from L&T , and to your contacts

I hope , in turn , they would share those links with their friends / contacts and also request them to do likewise

May be , some of them may even improve upon my suggestions and email those improved suggestions to the Ministers / Secretaries , listed in the attachment

If any one wants to have Email IDs of State Chief Ministers / MPs / MLAs etc , please write to me and I will send those databases

Of course , you can also use page , " Influence Policy Makers " from ,


One last request :

Can you pl roll back my age by 3 years ?  I will complete 83 by this month end ! I want to feel younger !



Warm Regards,

Subject: Fw: SUGGESTIONS OF AN ORDINARY CITIZEN

Dear friends,

Forwarded here is an amazing collection of well thought out actionable suggestions made by the 86 year young,  Mr.Hemen C. Parekh, a forme high-ranking L&T officer. I am impressed by his constant analyses of India’s problems, solutions and direct gains for the nation by implementing them. The objectivity, sans political dogma,  with which Hemenji sees through the national issues is stunning indeed.

There is another distinct quality about this great thinker of a reformer is, he is publicity shy though he hungers for these suggestions to reach the right individuals, our elected representatives, who are the decision-makers and who have the power to transform the lives of the Indians. Therefore, he has been quietly feeding the Central Cabinet Ministers and the CMs with the invaluable suggestions through emails and blogs/website. I am doubtful if any of them has cared to even acknowledge or call him for  clarifications, let alone for detailed discussions. Being totally dedicated to the well-being of the country, Mr.Parekh hasn’t stopped applying his brilliant mind and sharing his implementable ideas in more and more areas of policy and governance.

I appeal you to spare some of your precious time to selectively, if not fully, go through the treasure of his suggestions, links for which are given in his email forwarded herewith.

Secondly, I also appeal to you to suggest  specific means which we can collectively use to share these brilliant doable ideas among more individuals & even non-profit organizations known to us, with a request to them to seek action from the respective authorities.  Of course, follow-up with those who are responsible for their implementation is also a must, that too, collectively. 

Yes, this mail is sent by me only to those whom I consider movers and shakers of a new India, in their own little ways. Thank you for your time, patience and enthusiasm which are most likely to take India a few steps closer to our collective dreams. Please feel free to contact Hemenji as he has also given his cell number.

Progress and Peace be with us all.

Yours warmly = Gurudatt
