Dear Tathagat,
Just heard your views on the Lok Sabha
debacle , on CNBC TV , where you suggested that MPs should be paid only for the
days they show up in Lok Sabha
Indian voters will have to wait for this
miracle !
Then , of course , I don’t expect our
MPs ( irrespective of which political party they belong to ), to agree to
implement an “ impartial – unbiased – honest – transparent “ technology based
solution to fix their salaries, as suggested in my following blog :
Warm Regards,

Dear Mr Parekh,
[HCP]
This is an amazing work sheet.
[HCP]
Thank you for sending this to me.
I am named in this group of MPs and have many cases
against me.
ALL and every single one of them is a Defamation case
filed by bureaucrats' family members in connection to news published in two of
my daily newspapers against government corruption.
Yes, the future is going to be interesting indeed.
Best wishes.
Tathagata Satpathy

2019 : Nightmare Year ?
=================
In his book “ 1984 “
,George Orwell imagined the
nightmare of the State surveillance of private lives of the citizens of the
World
I envisage year 2019 as
a nightmare year for the politicians of India
Look at following news appearing in today’s Times of
India :
“ Govt to set up 12 spl
courts to try 1,581 MPs and
MLAs “
Highlights :
· 228……….
Members of Parliament to be tried in two special courts
· 13,500
… Approx number of total pending cases
· 1,125
….. Number of cases that each special court will have to decide in a year
· 242……..
Number of days trial courts normally function in a year
· 4.6………
Ave number of cases per day, each special court will have to dispose off
I assume that ,
· it
will be May 2018 , by the time
these Special Courts start working – more than 4 YEARS after
the Supreme Court directed the Centre to set up these courts
· these
“ Super Efficient “ courts will refuse to grant any “ Postponement Dates “ to
the accused and not only conclude within ONE HOUR (
whether the accused was guilty or not ) but also announce the VERDICT , on the
spot ( remember , 4.6 cases / day ?
)
· there
cannot be any “ Appeal “
against the judgements of these special courts
· some 365 MPs / MLAs ( out of those 1581
accused ) will be found GUILTY
· the
Speakers of the Lok Sabha / Rajya Sabha , will get court order copies within 7 days
· the
Speakers will disqualify , within 7 days ,
those MPs / MLAs who are declared guilty and who have been handed out sentences
of 5 years or more
· the
Election Commission will receive these “ Disqualification Notifications “ in 7 days
· the
Election Commission will announce re-election dates within 30 days for seats falling vacant
· these
Elections will start from Dec 2018
and stretch throughout 365 days of 2019
· to
ensure proper / timely availability of Election officers / police / EVMs /
polling booths / presiding officers / school-teachers / transport etc , spread
over 28 States , no more than ONE ELECTION will
be conducted PER DAY ( - for
each of 365 days of 2019 ! )
I had envisaged this scenario , as far back as MAY 2014 , in :
2019 will be a nightmare year , not only for the
politicians but also for the voters !
But it will be a bonanza year for :
· Newspapers
( Advt earnings )
· Outdoor
Publicity Companies ( Hoardings )
· Helicopter
Companies ( to ferry candidates / campaigners )
· Truck
Rental Companies ( to ferry voters )
· Event
Management Companies ( organizing Sabhas / Rallies )
· Printing
Presses ( printing of pamphlets / brochures / posters )….etc
Karl Marx may have said , " Religion the is the
opium of Masses "
In India , it seems , " Elections are the opium of the Masses " !
In 2019 , expect
DEMOCRACY to be working 24*365 !
