A case for outsourcing the governance ....

'Business' of running a government is very attractive says a former IAS officer....

If one state can produce Rs 3000 cr black money, that is what is fueling the black money economy. Political processes and the current process of governance when replaced by the outsourcing model, then the middle men and brokers need vanishes. The number of idle power peddlers will drastically vanish.

The operator loves to maximise his profit, and so will assure there is no leakage of revenues. Service quality is measurable and reviewed transparently quarterly through electronic means and so citizens will have direct view of their governance results.

I kind of divisions in the society for the sake of votes, will vanish. The broadbased partyless voting for selecting the Governor and President, the people themselves electronically voting through their handheld cell phones or computer centers on legislative and taxation issues, eliminates the bribing need. Such wide spread of stakeholders, having a say, makes it difficult to play for vested interests.

Anyway this needs more application of mind. I was thinking of just one page constitution for assuring human rights /fundamental rights.Articles of association for the out sourcing of governance can form an annexure. This can replace the voluminous constitution we have.

Beyond that all other issues can be relegated to status of laws and regulations.

The policing as we do today is practically useless. I refused to allow GRP in Konkan Railway. We formed our own self defence teams and groups well trained in martial arts including myself. We used to handle the criminal on site at stations and in carriages. There were instances initially, we broke the limbs of the criminals in self-defence and then handed over for further harassment at the hands of state police. After two such incidents, we never had problems.The figures for Konkan Railway show vastly improved law and order statistics as compared with rest of Indian Railways. Even MPs committees on inspection called " Ram Rajya" jokingly, when they saw our performance.!

If we have will we can redefine the entire system. it is possible. On a small scale within my small world I did try.

Governance will not have corruption if we are transparent and remove fear and distrust amongst the governed.

Even gangman could have direct access to the MD and his leave or salary are sanctioned on line as he applies and an audit trail was available. The process is readable by any one in the network. Too much literacy is not needed. This process can be built in to touch screens.

We are not applying our minds and technology. We can change our lives for better. We must get over the state borders, regional love affairs, but just care for humans and their well being. This can happen only if we eliminate the distorting politicians who make their living in the name of representing the people's wishes.

If a bureaucrat has to act visibly with every saying and noting visible to all, what state secret gets compromised?

How national security gets affected?

We are fooling public. But we have more self-centered , corrupt people wielding power and they protect each other and will not allow the present system to change.

Just another day of Brahma we collide with another galaxy !!

  Just in another day of Brahma our Galaxy collides with Andromeda : Earth continues but sky views change and Sun orbit affected !!  Image From Atlantic : reproduced .  In Hindu philosophy, a **Brahma day** (also known as a **Kalpa**) is a vast cosmic period that represents one full day in the life of Brahma, the creator god. This period is equivalent to **4.32 billion years** in human terms⁴. A Brahma day consists of **1,000 Mahayugas** (great ages), and each Mahayuga is made up of four Yugas (ages): Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga, and Kali Yuga². After the completion of a Brahma day, there is an equally long Brahma night, during which the universe undergoes dissolution before the cycle of creation begins anew². This concept highlights the immense scale of time in Hindu cosmology and reflects the cycles of creation and dissolution that are central to the universe's rhythm. Is there a specific aspect of this concept you're curious about? Source: Conversation wi

Are we experiencing life in a world already extinct millions of years ago?

It’s not rare that my mind feels we are actually living in a world that might have been extinct millions of years ago!     As per Vishnu Sahasra Namam, part of Mahabharata authored by Sri Vedavyasa, Brahma praises his own father Sri Vishnu as Sahasra Yuga Dharane namaha . That if we take as life time for Brahama from his own birth before start of creation and own liberation annihilating the entire creation to join that realm which has no cycles of birth and death. —-ever present abode of Sri Narayana as per Brahmasutra and described in Sri Bhagavad Gita too. That is 1000x10^7x4.32 m or 4.32x 10^16 solar years.        The time scale of Sri Vishnu who is said to create and maintain this universe merely by a wish within less than a second of His time . This translates as the equivalent to 10^16 solar years is my submission. This is  followed by equal time period of yoga Nidra or entire universe transformed back in to suspended particles. So the process of creation and destruction continue

The great Indian Puzzle.

Image
The great Indian Puzzle:  own technology to save every single life in land transportation, decongest cities and roads, save fossil fuels, avoid painful land and property acquisition, all weather system, eliminates modal split and seamlessly integrates for both cargo and people, more importantly financially viable, proven and cleared by Government in 2005 itself BUT ignore  and continue to keep doing infrastructure development with century old technologies, proudly too, to add insult to injury, causing tears to land and property owners, spending four times more but unable to achieve any positive result, cities remain congested, floods can shut down cities, accidents keep killing people and losing heavily public funds in terms of subsidising losses since famously these are not financilayy viable. Isn't it height of stupidity or lack of integrity in engineers for misguiding their governments? How history will judge, only time will tell
