MPs demand 50% reservation for the corrupt - The Times of India


"We will consider backing 33% reservation for women (in exchange for a small fee) only after government accedes to our request," said the bearded MP heading the group. 

Some netas were shocked at this demand. One senior politician told Mocktale on condition of anonymity that the flipside of this bill could mean "the remaining 50% of Parliamentarians may actually be honest".

ICMR denied information in response to RTI

8th Sep Mohali: The administrative procedures followed by NIPER to suspend and dismiss Dr. Nilanjan Roy were  totally arbitrary, dictatorial and violative of basic rules and regulations of GoI. His wife Sonali Roy complained against KK Bhutani Officiating director to Committee of petitions Lok Sabha seeking Justice.  The Lok Sabha Committee directed Chairman BOG, NIPER through Department of Pharmaceuticals, to act upon her petition. One year after her complain Mrs Roy filed an RTI to ICMR asking what action DG ICMR had taken taken on her petition, failing to get response from CPIO, she filed and appeal to appellate authority, ICMR. 

Neither CPIO nor appellate authority responded her quarry as per RTI act. On the contrary she got a funny unrelated response regarding appeal of Dr. Nilanjan Roy from a person unrelated to ICMR. A consultant to chairman, NIPER Mohali, gave hear misleading information flaunting RTI rule. Now she is filling a complain to CIC New delhi and also to other appropriate legal authority against deliberate violation of RTI 2005 act by ICMR.
