See how Lokpal Bill can curb the politicians, be aware of that.

Existing System:
No politician or senior officer ever goes to jail despite huge evidence.they have to take permission from the same bosses, against whom the case has to be investigated.



System Proposed by civil society:
Lokpal at centre and Lokayukta at state level will be independent bodies. ACB and CBI will be merged into these bodies. They will have power to initiate investigations and prosecution against any officer or politician without needing anyone’s permission. Investigation should be completed within 1 year and trial to get over in next 1 year. Within two years, the corrupt should go to jail.

Existing System:
No corrupt officer is dismissed from the job because Central Vigilance Commission, which is supposed to dismiss corrupt officers, is only an advisory body. Whenever it advises government to dismiss any senior corrupt officer, its advice is never implemented.

System Proposed by civil society:
Lokpal and Lokayukta will have complete powers to order dismissal of a corrupt officer. CVC and all departmental vigilance will be merged into Lokpal and state vigilance will be merged into Lokayukta.

Existing System:
No action is taken against corrupt judges because permission is required from the Chief Justice of India to even register an FIR against corrupt judges.

System Proposed by civil society:
Lokpal & Lokayukta shall have powers to investigate and prosecute any judge without needing anyone’s permission.

Existing System:
Nowhere to go - People expose corruption but no action is taken on their complaints.

System Proposed by civil society:
Lokpal & Lokayukta will have to enquire into and hear every complaint.

Existing System:
There is so much corruption within CBI and vigilance departments. Their functioning is so secret that it encourages corruption within these agencies.

System Proposed by civil society:
All investigations in Lokpal & Lokayukta shall be transparent. After completion of investigation, all case records shall be open to public. Complaint against any staff of Lokpal & Lokayukta shall be enquired and punishment announced within two months.
Existing System:
Weak and corrupt people are appointed as headsof anti-corruption agencies.

System Proposed by civil society:
Politicians will have absolutely no say in selections of Chairperson and members of Lokpal & Lokayukta. Selections will take place through a transparent and public participatory process.

Existing System:
Citizens face harassment in government offices. Sometimes they are forced to pay bribes. One can only complaint to senior officers. No action is taken on complaints because senior officers also get their cut.

System Proposed by civil society:
Lokpal & Lokayukta will get public grievances resolved in time bound manner, impose a penalty of Rs 250 per day of delay to be deducted from the salary of guilty officer and award that amount as compensation to the aggrieved citizen.

Existing System:
Nothing in law to recover ill gotten wealth. A corrupt person can come out of jail and enjoy that money.

System Proposed by civil society:
Loss caused to the government due to corruption will be recovered from all accused.

Existing System:
Small punishment for corruption- Punishment for corruption is minimum 6 months and maximum 7 years.

System Proposed by civil society:
Enhanced punishment - The punishment would be minimum 5 years and maximum of life imprisonment.

Sales vs Marketing

Sales and marketing are closely interlinked and are aimed at increasing revenue. As sales and marketing are closely intertwined, it becomes hard to realise the difference between the two. In small firms, one cannot come across much difference between sales and marketing. But bigger firms have made clear distinction between marketing and sales and they have specialised people handling them independently. Well, how is that sales and marketing are different? In very simple words, sales can be termed as a process which focuses or targets on individuals or small groups. Marketing on the other hand targets a larger group or the general public. Marketing includes research (identifying needs of the customer), development of products (producing innovative products) and promoting the product (through advertisements) and create awareness about the product among the consumers. As such marketing means generating leads or prospects. Once the product is out in the market, it is the task of t...

Life Is Too Short To Wake Up With Regrets! Love the people who treat you right & have compassion for the ones who don't.

Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam : "When I was a kid, my Mom cooked food for us.

I was waiting to see if anyone noticed the burnt roti. But Dad just ate his roti and asked me how was my day at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember I heard Mom apologising to Dad for the burnt roti. And I'll never forget what he said: "Honey, I love burnt roti." Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy, good night & I asked him if he really liked his roti burnt. He wrapped me in his arms & said: "Your momma put in a long hard day at work today and she was really tired. And besides... A burnt roti never hurts anyone but HARSH WORDS DO!" "You know beta - life is full of imperfect things... & imperfect people... I'M NOT THE BEST & AM HARDLY GOOD ...

We all build up different relationships with each people right from our birth to death. Relationship with friends, parents, children, siblings, husband/wife, lover, in-laws, colleges, and employees are some of the common bonds that we all share in life. However, what is difficult to strike the right chord and build up a perfect rapport in all the relationships. Otherwise, we would find ourselves as the lone sole surviving in this planet without any social connections. It is sad but true that we often get to hear about failed relationships or sweet relationships or sweet relationships turned bitter. In the fast-paced life to success people often tend to forget about the essence of a loving relationship and end up hurting each other. Whom should we blame??????   :The people ...
