CBI raids on Delhi secretaria to probe Rajinder Kumar IAS of 1989 batch cadre and an IIT Delhi alumnus has unsettled long standing disputes and corruption in running Delhi Cricket Association DDCA.
CBI has raided Mr Rajinder Kumar's residences as well several other places according to news reports.
But Aam Aadmi Party AAP which won Delhi elections in 2015 with a landslide margin has cried foul and alleges that the raids were carried out at the behest of Union Government.
There has been disagreements between Aam Aadmi Party and the Central Government led by Bharatiya Jana Party BJP over appointment of secretaries to the office of Delhi secretariat, with Union Government contesting State Govt's claim that LG extends his constitutional powers for the selection of appointments of Corruption Bureau offices as well as the Delhi Police appointments and administration.
Now Aad Aadmi Party has addresseed a press conference and has alleged corruption in Delhi Cricket Association offices. But the press raised the question that why is this being raised now.
Countering this question AAP says that Centre is not letting the State Government to carry out the Corruption cases since that department is directly by the Central Government as with other departments since Delhi is the Union Territory where Lieutenant General has powers under the Constitution of India.

Spate of incidents against minorities in India brings scathing criticism against the Government
News and media reports indicate spate of incidents against the
minorities in India since the BJP led NDA government has come to power
in Delhi. That has led to widespread resentment among major sections of
society including writers, actors, artists and intellectuals .
Many writers and intellectuals in India have returned their prestigious awards like Sahitya academy awards. The list is growing by the day. There has been huge debate going on for several months regarding violent activities carried about by Right-Wing organizations. There has been accusations and counter accusations regarding the situation.
Notable among the authors returning award was Jawaharlal Nehru's niece Nayantara sehgal, who criticised the government's inaction and apt silence against groups perpetuating the situation at hand and often committing violent crimes including murder, arson, manhandling and threats.
Several rationalists namely Govind Pansare, Kalburgi etc., have been murdered after threats, investigations are not conclusive yet. Run up to the elections in Bihar, the northern Indian state bordering Nepal, heightened the tensions between large sections of society.
Actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, and several other Bollywood personalities have come under sharp criticism from Right leaning Politicians, actors, and organizations for speaking out their mind and how they feel about the atmosphere in the country.
India is known for it's religious violence since the demolition of Babri Mosque in 1992, there has been retaliatory violence committed by the extremists in which hundreds of innocent people died. Mumbai the financial hub was attacked in serial bombings . Mumbai riots followed.
Almost after two decades of see-saw politics between the right wingers, the nation has been left scarfaced, particularly after the Gujarat riots, which brought visa restriction regime against the then Gujarat Chief Minister and Present Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Arundhati Roy, notable activist and author, the Bookers Prize winner, has again reiterated the same position voiced by several other luminaries who are protesting silently against the Government and it's policies. She said 'intorelance' is an inadequate word to describe the fear and violence under which the minorities are living in India.

Waste Management in India needs scientific approach
India need to improve it's waste management as the metropolitan cities are expanding at a faster pace than the preparedness of it's municipal bodies.
Waste Management in India is only about collecting and dumping the garbage at a location in the proximity of a respective city. There is no treatment of waste and recycling it, as there is no system in place where the trash is separated and collected.
Government of India is neglecting an important issue as it could lead to soil degradation, and also leading dangerous pollutants entering the water system of areas surround the garbage dumping sites. There are several reports in these regards and all the response from municipal bodies is stop gap approach and no scientific and sustainable approach to the problem.
Many countries have offered India technology to treat it's waste generated. But respective governments have neglected the issue.
Why in the world our governments first let the situation go out of hand and pay huge cost later on and seek help from other countries.
Classic example is the situation of river Ganga. Now after decades of neglect, the government has suddenly shown interest in cleaning up, but the cost and effort will have shot up by now, by what it was earlier and also pollutants could have affected the population more than anybody could imagine.
India is developing at a faster pace and the population will shoot up, which will further increase the burden on the municipal bodies to manage the system.
Solid Waste Policy in India
Columbia University Research Paper on Sustainable Waste Management in India
An Excerpt from the Research paper by : Ranjith Kharvel Annepu
This report is the result of over two years of research and includes data collected from the literature, communication with professionals in India, US and Europe; and extensive field investigations by the author in India and the US. Two field visits in India over a period of fifteen weeks covered 13 cities (Figure1) representing all sizes and regions in India. The visits included travelling to informal recycling hubs, waste dealers shops, composting facilities, RDF facilities, WTE facilities, sanitary and unsanitary landfills, landfill mining sites, and numerous municipal offices. These visits provided the opportunity to closely observe the impact of waste management initiatives, or lack thereof, on the public in those cities.

If India is to become superpower it must uphold it's secular credentials.
The ongoing conversion row coupled with controversial statements by the ruling party Members of Parliament is drawing the world to take attention at the kind of politics being played in India.
India is not new to religious based politics, it's been the trend ever since the political parties latched on to the Babri Masjid-Ram Janam Bhoomi issue, which is purely politically motivated.
When the administrators and politicians failed miserably to solve the people's issues at hand, they mischievously generated the idea of creating a communal rift and capture power taking the country downhill on the road towards obscurantism and no performance.
Majority Indians are gullible to these type of tactics, where the so called secular parties are lagging far behind with their corrupt and inept under bellies of factionalism and favoritism.
Actually in India, politicians are the most happiest people courtesy the hapless and helpless poverty ridden, slum dwellers which comprise the large sections of society and that do not have any voice.
How can you lead a society out of poverty and helplessness, when the same politicians practice caste and religious based politics which are against the very nature of the constitution of the nation.
The same members who take oath of the constitution are themselves the first one's to break that oath and divide the community on the basis of caste, creed, sex and religion. Isn't the right to equality article 21 of the constitution of our country guarantees equal rights to all.
Though we have a secular constitution, but we lack the wherewithal to deliver the justice to the citizens.
What use of development when the nation is plagued by serious problems of corruption, corporate mis-governance, malnutrition and religion based politics.
History has shown us that divisive and communal based politics is detriment to a secular society.
Though there are aspirations by both the majorities and the minorities of religious fulfillment, but those aspirations cannot supersede the secular nature of our constitution.
In these circumstances religious authorities should exercise their freedom with in the ambit of the four walls of our constitution.
