An Open Appeal To Prime Minister

I am happy that Mr. Narendra Modi PM gives value to Durdarsan in all his meetings, foreign visits and various advertisements. Similarly he should try to give government business to BSNL and Indian Airlines. Thousands of crores of rupees related to various government schemes is deposited in current or savings accounts of private banks which enable private banks to earn hundreds of crore as extra profit. Modi should ensure that entire government fund is parked in government banks only. This will help in improving health of sick banks to some extent.

It is important to point out that if Rs1000 crore of government fund is deposited in Current account of a bank, bank can earn minimum Rs.100 crore per year out of this interest free fund.  As per my rough estimation , at least ten lac crore of government fund is parked in various banks in saving or current account. One may imagine the volume of loss caused by public banks if the same fund is parked in private banks.

It is true that government departments and PSUs prefer private banks because private banks offer better services at some places. But in majority of cases high value fund is parked by officials of government departments  in private banks when value of gifts offered by private banks and value of bribe money offered by officials of private bank to acquire large fund is higher  than that offered by officials of  public sector banks. It is not true that all branches of all Public banks are extending poor services.

Similarly if all public servants, ministers, MPs, MLAs, bankers, and employees of all public sector undertakings are forced to travel only by Indian Airlines , it will enable Indian airlines to earn hundreds of crore of rupees as additional profit. It is true  that public servants prefer travelling by private airlines only because it is cheaper and better than Indian airlines. Government should try to rationalise and regulate airfare and in no case premium fare should be allowed to charge passengers who book ticker during eleventh hour of their visit.

There is large scale corruption in government schools and colleges. There is proper infrastructure and no proper housekeeping of available infrastructure. Teachers employed in these schools though get higher salary do not teach in schools, do not take adequate classes and do not cover entire syllabus forcing students either to opt for private schools and colleges for better study or have alternative method of learning through coaching classes conducted by teachers of government schools or private schools and colleges. If state or central  government properly monitor teaching quality in government run schools and colleges , I think  not only literacy level of the country will increase in true spirit but quality of learning will also get boost up. Not only this , government will also have to stop unfair means used by students in examinations and illegal earning by  teachers in passing a student.

It is open secret that examiners of various school level or college level periodical examinations including recruitment test conducted for various post are not honest in setting of questions, in evaluation of answer sheets and in marking process during Interview process .In the recent past , people of India witnessed how unfair means were used during an examination held in the state of Bihar. I have no doubt that if examination is conducted in fair way, at least 90 percent of students will fail. I have no doubt that students who could not use unfair means during examination , will try their level best to bribe answer sheet evaluators . If state government of Bihar really want to stop corruption in evaluation of answer sheets, they will have to be strict and honest in their intention.

Youth seeking job arrange settings with Interview Panel Members through some mediators to ensure and guarantee clearance in Interview . Such type of setting is done not only for getting job in government schools, colleges, police departments , PSUs, PSBs and other government offices but the same tactics is applied by clever employees to get promotions to higher grade and higher scale.

If government want improvement in quality of education and quality of working in government offices, it will have to improve quality from schools where seeds of moral values are sown. It will have to ensure corruption free, transparent and seniority oriented promotion process in all offices to improve work culture and to stop flattery and bribery culture . It is easy to preach sermons and it appears soothing to delegate powers to higher bosses to pick up staff on merit basis only  . But in fact such delegation of power results mostly in exploitation of staff, misuse of staff for self interest. There is no doubt that power corrupts people and absolute power damages entire system and damage entire culture.

If we look into service quality and treatment quality available for patients admitted in government hospitals , we will have no doubt in our minds that these hospitals are used only by extremely poor families who cannot afford treatment in private nursing homes. Quality of  treatment, quality of medicines, quality of doctors , quality of nurses and other staff, quality of pathological test carried out in these hospitals and quality of infrastructure  , all are of extremely inferior nature and prone to cause death and greater loss to patients and care takers of patients who are admitted for treatments in these hospitals. These hospitals are normally used only for post mortem purposes or in accidental cases when private nursing homes avoid admission of such patients due to police oriented problems. There is no doubt that private nursing homes are of first preference for patients if one can afford it at its own or even by taking loan from friends and relatives. There is no control of charges recovered for various consultations, operations and pathological test in private nursing homes. Still people prefer private hospitals.

This is why people of India in general have lost trust in working , functioning and disposal quality of government run departments, offices, banks and all PSUs. Inspite of all promises by government banks , people prefer banking with private banks, students prefer admission in private schools, passengers prefer travelling by private airlines, consumers prefer landline phone connections and mobile SIMs from private telecom service providers and finally all patients prefer treatment at private nursing homes.

I hope Mr. Narendr
a Modi will take care of points raised by me and take adequate corrective steps.
 
 Lastly I salute Mr. Narendra Modi Prime Minister of India for his generous and quick response in time of all crisis Indian people faced in India and abroad. It is praiseworthy that Indian government have extended sincere , commendable and wholehearted services  to people of Bihar, People of Jammu and Kashmir and to Indians and foreigners in Yemen and Nepal .
 



There is no parallel to services rendered by armed forces during period of all crisis and credit goes to Government for ensuring timely and well monitored action to cope with crisis and to rescue people in crisis. There is no doubt that name of Mr. Modi will be mentioned in golden words and he will be appreciated all over the world for his performance and service to h8umanity without any bias to caste , community , region or country.
