PERMISSION FROM PRESIDENT FOR ENDING HIS LIFE BY A COL. ON OROP CASE.



It is really  a bad state of affairs in our country - there is no value for the promise of a Prime Minister .  This leads to such a decision  to end  ones life  because of this unbearable situation. 

Dear veteran brothers, please be united for the common cause  like OROP.











From,
Lt Col Ravi Shankar Tripathi (Retd)
H-14, Shakarpur,
Delhi 110092.

To,
The Supreme Commander of All Three Forces of India,
The President of India
Rashtrapati Bhawan, New Delhi

DUE UNBEARABLE ORDEAL OF FASTING ESM, I REQUEST PERMISSION TO END MY LIFE 

Dear Sir, 

I am a retired army Officer with a spotless service of 25 years. I have been watching the promises and more promises of our endless leaders since 1982 and even the present  Prime Ministers since Nov 2013 regarding payment of One Rank One Pension. The parliament has passed it and even the Hon'able Supreme Court has upheld it. But still no govt has translated their promises into action. 

You being our Supreme commander, I am writing this to you. I have given up any hope from any govt of this country and feel ashamed when I see my brothers of the age of 80-85 years old sitting on fast at Jantar Mantar for the last 36 days. You will appreciate that this agitation has been totally peaceful despite all the provocations. May be that is precisely the reason that nothing is moving at the govt's end. But at the same time I can never allow my brother ESM to take recourse to violence, as all soldiers love their country more than any one. I will never allow my brothers in active service to break the sacred thread of democratic traditions. Some head of the country said “You guard the national boundary and I will guard your welfare”, but in INDIA it is a different story. 

I find myself a failure towards my brothers in and out of the Armed Forces. I am losing the desire to live. As I can not even fight with the powers that be at the helms of affairs as any violent fight with them may cause irreparable loss to my country. I also can not tolerate my countrymen saying that,  if  a Prime Minister cannot keep the promise given to soldiers of his country what promise he can keep to the Nation. 

I am sure you will agree that if a soldier cannot live with dignity at least he should be allowed to die with dignity

In view of the above, I kindly request for your permission to end my life as it has become unbearable for me to live any more. 

Anyway, the date, place and time will be informed once a positive reply is received from The Supreme Commander.

best regards
Lt Col RS Tripathi

ONE WONDERFUL ARTICLE TO BE READ BY ALL CITIZENS OF OUR COUNTRY.



When  our Prime Minister is Lecturing every day to Give Up  lot of our USAGES , like LPG subsidy ,
 this article brings the facts  regarding the facilities available to MP of our country. This IS not visible to our Prime Minister, he is not asking the MPs to Give up the facilities, only the other citizen to GIVE UP.
What is this .  The salary of MPs should be stopped as they are PUBLIC SERVANTS. They should  serve for the people with out any salary as they are getting many other facilities like free accommodation, free travels, subsidized food etc.

READERS, PLEASE THINK OVER  AND EXPRESS YOUR COMMENTS.

Open Letter To PM: Why I Won’t #GiveItUp So Ministers Can Get ‘Free Phone Calls’

By Sanjana Chowdhury:
Dear Mr. Prime Minister,
Every time we open a newspaper or switch on the TV, we encounter your smiling face asking us to join the #GiveItUp Movement, apparently to “Be a Proud Partner in Nation Building”. What you’re asking us to ‘give up’ is the measly LPG subsidy that we are entitled to. But here is why I won’t.




Image source: youtube.com
Image source: youtube.com
Currently, an Indian household is entitled to get twelve 14.2 Kg cylinders of domestic cooking gas per year. At the subsidised rate, each cylinder costs Rs. 417.82 while the market price stands at Rs. 608.50 (for Indane Gas in Delhi). So, for each household the subsidy is Rs. 190.68 per cylinder and amounts to a measly sum of Rs.2,288.16 per year. As of now, each Member of Parliament gets a monthly salary of Rs. 50,000, constituency allowance of Rs. 45,000 and office expense allowance of Rs. 45,000, adding up to Rs.140,000. Surely, the government can spend Rs. 2288 for each household when it can pay each MP a whopping Rs. 1.4 lakh per month.
Each minute of a Parliament session costs us, the tax payers, Rs. 29,000. So while the politicians rage and create a ruckus, passing no legislations of value or even coming close to debating any, the money that’s wasted there is fine, while we must go on to give up the LPG subsidy. Why?
Our tax goes to feed the MPs
vThe Indian citizen is hard-put to pay his Income Tax, Service Tax, Property Tax, Value Added Tax and what-not, but the rich MPs have enjoyed an overwhelming subsidy of Rs 60 crores at the parliament canteens over the last 5 years alone. The Rangarajan committee has outrageously drawn the urbaerty line at Rs. 47 which, hilariously enough, can only be applicable if one is dining at the parliament canteen.

Evidently, the government believes it more worthwhile to spend Rs 200 crores to build a statue of Sardar Patel rather than provide Minimum Support Price MSP for farmers. While the nation clamours for One Rank One Pension for ex-servicemen, the government wastes money on celebrating Yoga Day, and trying to make a success out of the inefficient UID project.

And really, who are we “building the nation” for?
While the common man is constantly struggling to meet his bills, the government pays hundreds of crores on the Ministers and MPs. They receive amenities to travel in AC First Class by any railway in India on the strength of his ID card when every other Indian must pay Rs. 1203 for similar facilities for a 50 Km ride on the Rajdhani Express. They can travel by air, free of cost, and even get 34 free air journeys along with spouse or relatives but for the Indian citizen the lowest possible airfare is around Rs. 4000 (from Mumbai to Delhi).
The official website of Indian Lok Sabha states that, our MPs are entitled to license-free flats along with furniture worth Rs.60,000 throughout their terms of office. In addition to this, they receive free supply of 4000 Kl of water and 50,000 units of electricity per annum. Besides these facilities, they can have upto 3 telephones without paying installation or rental costs, and are entitled to 150,000 free calls from these telephones.
So all I want to ask is this, do we have to #GiveItUp so that our respected ministers can get free phone calls?
Respectfully, An Indian Citizen
