6 PRINCIPLES OF LIFE

1· No point using limited life to chase unlimited money.

2· No point earning so much money you cannot live to spend it.

Money is not yours until you spend it.

4· When you are young, you use your health to chase your wealth; when you are old, you use your wealth to buy back your health. Difference is that, it is too late.

5· How happy a man is, is not how much he has but how little he needs.

6· No point working so hard to provide for the people you have no time to spend with.

Remember this -- We  come into this world with nothing,and we leave this world with nothing!

Here is the proof that you don't have to have money to be happy.

Practical guide to getting work done without paying bribe



Corrupt officials use various tactics to extract bribes.

You may take the following action to counter those tactics.

(1) Indefinite Delay: They delay your work until you offer a bribe. Solution: Don't visit government offices. Follow up your pending work through letters. You may send letters by courier, registered post or speed post. [Local speed post costs only Rs 12/-. Local couriers are available at Rs 5/-]. You may also use RTI Act to know status of your work. In which case you need to spend another Rs 10/-.

.

(2) Demanding unnecessary papers: Sometimes they demand unnecessary documentation, and hint that work can be done without those very papers if you pay a bribe. Solution: If they can offer to do your work without additional papers [with bribe], it means that those papers were definitely unnecessary. (i) Ask officials to demand those papers in writing, and record the conversation. (ii) Write a letter stating that you demanded these papers. Are they really mandatory as per law? You can also use the RTI Act here. (iii) Use the RTI Act to find out whether s/he demanded those papers from other applicants. (iv) Whatever paper s/he demands, send it by post. Never deliver anything without receipt. [Remember no officer will complete your work without the mandatory papers].

.

(3) They advise you to pay bribe so that you pay less tax / penalties. Many times they demand higher amount for penalties than prescribed under laws. Solution: (1) Check laws if you can (2) Record the conversation and tell them that you are going to report it to the Anti-Corruption Bureau. (3) Use the RTI Act to find out how much was paid by others under similar circumstances.

.

(4) When the official is not available in his/her office. Solution: Write a letter that you visited his/her office on say, 1st August at 11 AM but s/he wasn't available. His/her assistant Mr. Rama Rao said to come again on 5th August. This letter will make him/her take special care of your work.

.

(5) If nothing works, try this: When you don't have any option, record the conversation, pay money and get your work done. After your work is completed, meet that official and demand your money back. Tell him/her that you are going to complain, if s/he does not return your money. Tell him/her about Jago Party. Take a Jago pamphlet or advertisement copy with you. This will most likely make him/her return your money.

.

(6) Develop the habit of complaining. Whenever you see crime and corruption, send written complaints to head of that department, ACB / CBI, local newspapers and the Jago Party.

.

(7) Don't be submissive. Call officials by their names. Don't call them `Sir' or `Madam'. Be polite but don't show unnecessary respect. Be firm and confident. Talk about the RTI Act and the Jago Party. Corrupt officials are generally afraid of knowledgeable people.

We as responsible citizen of country should bring awareness about Jan Lokpal proposed by civil society. if required let we call expert to comment on / give lectures at various study circle.

No politician or senior officer ever goes to jail despite huge evidence because Anti Corruption Branch (ACB) and CBI directly come under the government. Before starting investigation or initiating prosecution in any case, they have to take permission from the same bosses, against whom the case has to be investigated.

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 anyoneⳠpermission. 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.

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.

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.

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.

Lokpal & Lokayukta shall have powers to investigate and prosecute any judge without needing anyoneⳠpermission.

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

Lokpal & Lokayukta will have to enquire into and hear every complaint.

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

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.

Weak and corrupt people are appointed as heads of anti-corruption agencies.

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.

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.

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.

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

Loss caused to the government due to corruption will be recovered from all accused.

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

Enhanced punishment - The punishment would be minimum 5 years and maximum of life imprisonment.

Man O Man


When without money,

eats wild vegetables at home
When has money,

eats same wild vegetables in fine restaurant.



When without money,

rides bicycle;
When has money,

rides exercise machine.


When without money,

walks to earn food
When has money,

walks to lose the fat


Man O Man ! 

never fails to deceive thyself !


When without money,

wishes to get married;
When has money,

wishes to get divorced.


When without money,

wife becomes secretary;
When has money,

secretary becomes wife.


When without money, acts like rich man;
When has money, acts like poor man.


Man, O Man, never can tell the simple truth !


Says share market is bad

but keeps speculating;
Says money is evil

but keeps accumulating.
Says high positions are lonely

but keeps wanting them.
Says gambling & drinking is bad

but keeps indulging;

Man O Man !

Never means what he says

and

never says what he means!

THERE ARE NO MIRACLES IN LIFE.

LIFE ITSELF IS A MIRACLE!
