2G losses: Lead auditor 'forced' to take CAG line?(http://ibnlive.in.com/exclusive-videos/2G-Scam.html)

New Delhi: More proof of the split in the CAG office has surfaced over the calculation of 2G losses.
CNN-IBN has copies of top secret notes exchanged between Deputy CAG Rekha Gupta and DG (Audit) RP Singh which shows that Singh was being coerced into toeing a line that Gupta and CAG Vinod Rai had already worked out.
A letter written by Gupta accused Singh of not auditing the 2G scam properly during 2009-10.
Singh had earlier maintained that he didn't agree with the methodology adopted to calculate the 2G losses.

Singh is the person who had put his signature on the final CAG report pegging the loss in 2G scam at 1.76 lakh crore.
The Deputy CAG Rekha Gupta in her letter to the DG, said, "It appears that there is no strategy planned for auditing. Valuable time has been lost since October and he has yet to begin work."
R P Singh's responded to Gupta, saying, "My efforts, commitment to my job and dedication to the cause of audit to do my job with sincerity and integrity have been put to question and you have raised serious doubts about my present interest in the job. I have never been hit in such a way in my entire career. It is painful, hurting and less than fair. Your comments are exaggerated and overstretched. Your comments are demoralising and not inspiring at all. I request you not to prejudge work at this stage."
The letters exchanged between RP Singh and Rekha Gupta suggest that all was not well in the CAG institution when it came to the question of preparing this report.
The first letter was prepared by Rekha Gupta's officer on February 26 that raises serious doubts about the manner in which RP Singh was going about carrying out entire audit exercise.
RP Singh then joined the war of words and sent a rejoinder to Gupta on March 4.
This was when preparation of CAG report was in its final stages. The reason why RP Singh says he has been so hurt by the kind of attitude being displayed by his seniors because now these letters are proving to be an evidence that he was being forced by his seniors to arrive at a particular figure.
But he was just not willing to agree with the methods of carrying out these audits.
Earlier, RTI queries have revealed that Singh, in internal communications, had pegged the 2G losses at Rs 2645 crore, much less than the presumptive loss of Rs 1.76 lakh crore stated by the CAG in its report

MY PRIDE DID YOU KNOW THAT.......

India is one of the oldest civilizations in the world, spanning a period of more than 4000 years, and witnessing the fusion of several customs and traditions, which are reflective of the rich culture and heritage of the Country.

The history of the nation gives a glimpse into the magnanimity of its evolution - from a Country reeling under colonialism, to one of the leading economies in the global scenario within a span of fifty years. More than anything, the nationalistic fervour of the people is the contributing force behind the culmination of such a development. This transformation of the nation instills a sense of national pride in the heart of every Indian within the Country and abroad, and this section is a modest attempt at keeping its flame alive.

Sanskrit is considered as the mother of all higher languages.

This is because it is the most precise and therefore the suitable language for computer software (a report in Forbes magazine, July 1987)

I love thee, O my India!

Better than Heaven or Arcadia
I love thee, O my India!
And thy love I shall give
To every brother nation that lives.
God made the Earth;
Man made confining countries
And their fancy-frozen boundaries.
But with unfound boundless love
I behold the borderland of my India
Expanding into the World.
Hail, mother of religions, lotus, scenic beauty,and sages!
Thy wide doors are open,
Welcoming God's true sons through all ages.
Where Ganges, woods, Himalayan caves, and
men dream God -
I am hallowed; my body touched that sod.

- Swami Yogananda Paramhansa

Poems on India

"Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been
broken up into fragments by
narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from
the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches
its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason
has not lost its way into the dreary
desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is lead forward by thee
into ever-widening thought and action-
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father,
let my country awake."

"Geetanjali"
- Rabindranath Tagore

THE PLEDGE OF INDEPENDENCE

The Pledge of Independence

Declaration of Purna Swaraj, Lahore Congress, January 26, 1930

We believe that it is the incredible right of the Indian people, as of any other people, to have freedom to enjoy the fruits of their soil and have the necessities of life, so that they may have full opportunities of growth. We believe also that if any government deprives a people of these and oppress them, the people have a further right to alter or abolish it. The British Government in India has not only deprived the Indian people of their freedom but has based itself on the exploitation of the masses, and has ruined India must server the British connection and attain Purna Swaraj or complete independence.

India has been ruined economically. The revenue derived from our people is out of all proportion to our income. Our average income is seven pice per day, and of the heavy taxes we pay 20% are raised from the land revenue derived from the peasantry and 3% from the salt tax, which falls most heavily on the poor.

Village industries, such as hand spinning, have been destroyed, leaving the peasantry idle for at least four months in the year, and dulling their intellect for want of handicrafts, and nothing has been substituted, as in other countries, for the crafts thus destroyed.

Customs and currency have been so manipulated as to beep further burdens on the peasantry. British manufactured goods constitute the bulk of our imports. Customs duties betray partiality for British manufacturers, and revenue from them is not used to lessen the burden on the masses but for sustaining a highly extravagant administration. Still more arbitrary has been the manipulation of the exchange which has resulted in millions being drained away from the country.

Politically, India’s status has never been so reduced as under the British regime. No reforms have given real political power to the people. The tallest of us have to bend before the foreign authority. The rights of free expression of opinion and free association have been denied to us and many of our countrymen are compelled to live in exile abroad and cannot return to their homes. All administrative talent is killed and the masses have to be satisfied petty village offices and clerkships.

Currently, the system of education has torn us from our moorings and our training has made us bug the very chains that bind us.

Spiritually, compulsory disarmament has made us unmanly and the presence of an alien army of occupation, employed with deadly effect to crush in us the spirit of resistance, has made us think that we cannot look after ourselves or put up a defence against foreign aggression, or even defend our brothers and families from the attacks of thieves, robbers and miscreants.

We hold it to be a crime against man and God to submit any longer to a rule that has caused this fourfold disaster to our country. We recognise, however, that the most effective way of getting our freedom is not through violence. We will therefore prepare ourselves by withdrawing, so far as we can, all voluntary association from British Government, and will prepare for civil disobedience, including non-payment of taxes. We are convinced that if we can but withdraw our voluntary help and stop payment of taxes without doing violence, even under provocation; the need of his inhuman rule is assured. We therefore hereby solemnly resolve to carry out the Congress instructions issued from time to time for the purpose of establishing Purna Swaraj.

Poverty and Hungry has no RELIGION

Another strange qualification to become an OBC was, if one belonged to a caste where at least 25 per cent females and 10 per cent males above the state average got married at an age below 17 years in rural areas and at least 10 per cent females and 5 per cent males do so in urban areas. Besides this one of the selection parameter remained, “Castes/classes considered as socially backward by others.” Who are others and how this would be identified was never mentioned. No scientific methodology, nothing.
