ये डॉक्टर केवल हिन्दुस्तानी हैं...ना कश्मीरी, ना पाकिस्तानी




Geelani has been diagnosed with renal cancer, and has been recommended by doctors to go overseas for treatment. After Prime Minister Manmohan Singh intervened, Indian government agencies returned Geelani's passport to his son.[13] His passport was seized in 1981 due to accusations of "anti-India" activities, and with the exception of his Hajj pilgrimage in 2006, he has not been allowed to leave India.[14]

During a regular check-up doctors discovered that Geelani's "only kidney has developed malignancy".[15] An infection forced doctors, four years ago, to remove his left kidney. Although the cancer was in its early stages, it was life threatening, and he needed to have surgery. Following the advice of his doctors at Apollo Hospital, Geelani was set to travel to either the UK or the USA for specialized treatment.[16] However his request for a visa was turned down by the Americans, and as his health deteriorated he went to Mumbai for surgery. Doctors at the Tata Memorial Hospital successfully performed surgery on his kidney.[17] The reason given by the U.S. for turning down Geelani's request for a visa was, that he has" failed to renounce violence". This decision was declared a violation of his human rights by his supporters and family.[11].

रोटी और संसद.... कवि धूमिल



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6-n8PEt5Hk

एक आदमी रोटी बेलता है,

एक आदमी रोटी खाता है,

एक तीसरा आदमी भी है,

जो न रोटी बेलता है,

न रोटी खाता है,

वह सिर्फ रोटी से खेलता है।

मैं पूछता हूँ,

यह तीसरा आदमी कौन है,

मेरे देश की संसद मौन है.....

सखी सैयां तो खूबे कमात हैं, महंगाई डायन खाए जात है..

In memory of war heroes.....

Shiva Solanki, nephew of BJP MP Dinu Solanki arrested from the Rajkot airport in connection with the murder of RTI activist and green crusader Amit Jethwa.

"We arrested Shiva Solanki while he was on his way to Mumbai," said Police Crime Branch Chief Mohan Jha.

Jethwa had filed a Public Interest Litigation against illegal mining in Gir forest region in High Court few days before he was shot dead from close range by two unknown motorcycle-borne assailants near the Gujarat High Court on July 20.

His father Bhikabhai Jethwa had alleged that the BJP MP from Junagarh was behind murder of his son.

Shiva Solanki's role in the murder was under the scanner of the city crime branch, after one of the accused arrested in the case revealed his involvement.

Last month, police arrested a constable Bahadursinh Dhirubha Wadher from Junagadh district and one Sanjay Chauhan in connection with the murder.

A couple of days later, Pachan Shiva, one of the two motorcycle-borne assailants who had shot Jethwa on the night of July 20 this year was also arrested.

Bhikabhai Jethwa had earlier alleged that BJP MP Dinu Solanki was behind the killing of his son, and had also threatened him over telephone several times in the past.

A tribute to Amit Jethwa....


The Ahmedabad police are now probing Gujarat Right to Information (RTI) activist Amit Jethwa’s last Public Interest Litigation (PIL) against BJP MP Dinubhai Solanki.

The needle of suspicion point towards criminal gangs in Saurashtra and the Ahmedabad police will shortly leave for Junagadh for investigations.

Amit Jethwa’s murder has once again brought into sharp focus the obstacles in successfully implementing a legislation that was meant to expose corruption in the government.

The main hurdle seems to be the issue of RTI activists facing a threat to their lives.

Amit Jethwa, who was shot dead by unknown assailants on Tuesday evening, was trying to expose the nexus between officials, politicians and the mining mafia in Gujarat. His family has accused a BJP MLA of having a hand in the killing. (Read: RTI activist’s murder: Family accuses BJP MP)

Speaking to NDTV, National Advisory Council (NAC) member and activist Aruna Roy, who campaigned hard for the Right to Information Act, says whistleblowers face the biggest threat from the nexus between corrupt officials and the mafia.

“Actually you see the RTI works within the system of governance. So what should protect them is the regulatory systems which operate within government…the regulatory mechanisms which operate within government. It is also the administrative missionary that operates within government. Because very often it is that part of the government which is malfunctioning, which is threatened to be exposed, which is hand-in-glove with the mafia and then proceeds to take these kinds of horrendous steps to still voices of protest,” said Aruna Roy.

She also added that the NAC will take up the roadblocks in RTI.

“Actually the NAC in its first meeting decided that it would also look at the implementation of the flagship programs of UPA 1. So whether it is the Forest Bill or the RTI or the NREGA, these various acts will be covered under the general work of the NAC. So we will at some point of time take up RTI…the roadblocks in RTI.”

DCPCR working under pressure of Delhi Government


In the month of May’10 many parents of New Seema Puri approached with written request to Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya (SKV), New Seema Puri for the admission of their children. The Vice Principal of SKV denied admission in written to these children stating that there is no seat available in the school, therefore admission cannot be given.

The Right to Education Act 2009 implemented since 1st April’10 and despite of RTE Act which ensures the free & compulsory Elementary Education, therefore now it’s the right of every child to get admission in school. A Commission in Delhi has also been set up under the Act for ensuring the rights of children, so it is the responsibility of the Delhi Commission for Protection of Childs Rights to ensure the admission of the children in school.

A complaint was filed with Delhi Commission for Protection of Childs Rights (DCPCR) regarding the written denial for the admission of these children by the vice principal of the school. The DCPCR directed the Directorate of Education to admit these children otherwise action will be taken against Department.

But it is extremely surprising after 4 months DCPCR has sent a letter dated 1st Sep’10 stating that “admission to these children cannot be given in SKV New Seema Puri, because of non availability of seats in the school, therefore the parent of these children are advised to take admission in other neighborhood school.”

However the fact is that in this SKV, New Seema Puri there are 60-80 students are studying in a single section of many classes.

As DCPCR has passed 4 months and now the admissions are closed, so where these children will study. In such situation questions arise:

For whom this Commission is functioning GOVERNMENT or CHILDREN?

Is this Commission bound to work under pressure of the Government?

Are the appointments being made just to oblige the people who are closer to the Government?

Who is responsible for spoiling one year of these children?

How one year will be compensated for their loss?

We like to salute such Brave and Honest officers



Dear Madan Mohan Tiwari
General Secretary (DELTA)

It has been a long time since you have received any news from Sakshi. We appreciate that you still have given your support to the cause of clean governance. We have spent a long time wondering if the battle for a clean working government could be achieved by RTI alone. Essentially we felt that the standard RTI approach itself was based on negativity and suspicion of people in our government. While this might be largely true but there some exceptional exceptions.

We have therefore another approach let us look at the bureaucracy as our servant or as dog who we have bought home to serve and protect us. In this context the indian bureaucracy is like servant who gets food whether it works or not and when given an opportunity it steals our food also. When given an opportunity we use RTI and other anti corruption measures to kick it. We use the media, facebook and letters to the editors to curse it.

We request you step back and see if this is how we want to train the dog who is to serve us. Only kicking and cursing it will not work we need to give it love and recognition too but at the times when it demonstrates the right behavior. Believe me there are plenty of opportunities where honest officers have gone beyond their call of duty to serve us with great diligence.

We need you as citizen of this great country to change our approach to fighting corruption why not recognize and appreciate good work done by government officials. Trust when such recognition is received such an officer ethics and desire to serve diligently will be further strengthened and they will go on set and example to thier not so diligent colleagues.

Today we want you to buy a simple post card of Rs.2 and post the card with a note of appreciation of Superintendent of police Mrs.Kalpana Saxena who on her rounds found three police constables extorting money from truck drivers. She chased them and held onto the window of their jeep and was dragged 1 KM along with their escaping vehicle.

Please feel free to send your thank you to

Pardarshita filed PIL in High Court


Notice issued by Delhi High Court to Delhi Govt. against violation of RTE ACT

Article 21 A of Constitution states that “Every child between the ages of 6 to 14 years has the right to free and compulsory education.” Not only this RTE Act has also been enacted since 1st April 2010 and according to Section 3 (1) & 3(2) of Right to Education Act

Section 3(1)“Every child of age of six to fourteen years shall have a right to free and compulsory education in a neighborhood school till completion of elementary education”

Section 3(2)“no child shall be liable to pay any kind of fee or charges or expenses which may prevent him/her from pursuing and completing the elementary education”.

But surprisingly, government school Authorities, who are supposed to be aware of this Act, are not abiding by the same. Principals of Government Schools are collecting Rs 97 from the students of Class I to VIII in the name of Parents Teachers Association Fund and Pupil Welfare Fund. This is not one time collection but the students have to pay Rs 45 quarterly for pupil Welfare Fund

When such violations came to the notice of Pardarshita by the students, then more than 500 students were assisted by Pardarshita in raising their voice against violation. A complaint with the Delhi Govt. and Chairperson of NCPCR and DCPCR was filed. More than three months have been passed but no action by any of the authority has been taken so far. Therefore Pardarshita has filed a PIL in Delhi High Court with the help of Divya Jyoti Jaipuriar, Advocate HRLN for violation of RTE Act and today Hon’ble High Court has issued notice to Delhi Govt. in this matter.

नगर निगम शिक्षक संघ (MCTA) का टाउन हाल पर प्रदर्शन


नगर निगम शिक्षक संघ (MCTA) ने आज अपनी विभिन्न मांगों को लेकर टाउन हाल पर विशाल प्रदर्शन किया।आज तक नगर निगम के शिक्षकों को छठे वेतन आयोग के एरियर का भुगतान नहीं हुआ है। इसे लेकर शिक्षकों में काफी रोष था और रही सही कसर पुलिस ने पूरी कर दी जब टाउन हाल की तरफ जाने से रोक दिया। शिक्षक सड़क पर बैठ गए और पुरानी दिल्ली रेलवे स्टेशन जाने के मार्ग को बंद कर दिया।काफी बड़ा जाम लग गया और स्वर्गीय करतार सिंह जून के समय की याद ताज़ा हो गयी।
नगर निगम शिक्षक संघ (MCTA) के वर्तमान महासचिव उनके पुत्र जोगेंद्र जून हैं और दिल्ली का शिक्षक समाज उनमें उनके पिता की ही छवि देखना चाहता है।
नगर निगम शिक्षक संघ का एक महान इतिहास रहा है। इसने अनेक शिक्षक नेता दिए हैं और सच तो यह है कि यह दिल्ली में शिक्षक नेता बनाने की मातृभूमि है। हम सभी डेल्टा (DELTA) के लोग भी इसी से पैदा हुए हैं। इसलिए इस संस्था का सम्मान हम हमेशा करते रहेंगे और इसको हमेशा जीवंत बनाये रखेंगे। इस संस्था ने न केवल शिक्षक नेता दिए हैं बल्कि इसी के सहारे अनेक लोगों ने दिल्ली के राजनीतिक गलियारों में जगह बनायी है। अनेक शिक्षक नेता इसी से निकल कर विधायक और पार्षद बन गए। अभी अभी निवर्तमान महासचिव जय भगवान यादव को इसी संस्था ने भारतीय जनता पार्टी के टिकट पर पार्षद बना दिया और वे दिल्ली नगर निगम की स्टैंडिंग कमेटी के सदस्य भी हैं।
शिक्षक नेताओं को राजनीति में जाना चाहिए या नहीं... यह प्रश्न आपके लिये छोड़ा जा रहा है... हम इस विवाद में पड़ना नहीं चाहते....

नगर निगम के प्रधानाध्यापकों को कैट में जीत मिली



आज माननीय कैट (CAT) ने दिल्ली नगर निगम के सभी प्रधानाध्यापकों को एक बड़ी खुशखबरी दी है।

ये प्रधानाध्यापक रिटायर होने के बाद पुनः दो वर्ष के लिये नियुक्त हो सकते हैं।

कुछ दिनों पहले श्री गिरिराज शर्मा एवं अन्य प्रधानाध्यापकों ने कैट (CAT) में एक केस दाखिल किया था कि उन्हें भी टी जी टी की तरह रिटायर होने के बाद 62 वर्ष की उम्र तक पुनः नियुक्ति मिले। आज कैट (CAT) में इस मुद्दे पर फैसला आ गया है और शिक्षक समाज की जीत हुई है। प्रधानाध्यापकों को पुनः नियुक्ति मिलेगी साथ ही इन्क्रीमेंट भी मिलेगी।
श्री गिरिराज शर्मा जी अनेक वर्षों से अखिल दिल्ली प्राथमिक शिक्षक संघ (ADPSS) से जुड़े रहे हैं और उनके वर्तमान मार्गदर्शन में संगठन ऊंचाईयों को छूता रहा है। ईश्वर उनको लम्बी उम्र दे तथा डेल्टा (DELTA) को भी उनका आशीर्वाद एवं मार्गदर्शन मिलता रहे, यही हमारी कामना है। विशेष जानकारी के लिये गुरुदेव श्री भगत सिंह दहिया (09013247523 ) या श्री रामचंद्र डबास से (01120481756) पर संपर्क करें।
