Crime has won and we have lost

The distraught family of December 16 gangrape victim has rued the Delhi High Court’s refusal to stay the release of the juvenile, saying “Crime has won and we have lost (जुर्म जीत गया, हम हार गए)”.

Asha Devi, mother of the victim, said, despite all our efforts, the criminal will walk free. She said their three-year-old battle for justice has gone in vain.

The victim’s father also expressed disappointment over the order and said it should have had a deterrent effect.

Reacting on the issue, Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) said the High Court’s refusal to stay the release of the juvenile convict in the December 16 gangrape case was a dark day in the history of the country.

Dullards in Ministry of Railways Import Outdated Technology

December19, 2015 (C) Ravinder Singh progressindia2015@gmail.com

 

It is most unfortunate that when India is passing through Economic Crisis public funds are Most Incompetently Used Actually Wasted. When both 6000 HP ABB Passenger and Goods Locos are already manufactured in India, what was the logic of IMPORTING 1800 Diesel & Electric Locos at over 40,000 Cr Cost? Their Lifetime Cost & Liability could be Rs.3,00,000 Cr [IMPORTED Fuel & O&M]. At a fraction of cost India can Electrify Almost Entire Traction which is clean & Efficient. [I have Offered Technologies to Railways Since 1980]

 

CK Jaffer Sharief Smarter Than Suresh Prabhu

It was astonishing that India ordered Locos that Are Designed for 100-120 kmph speed,when ABB Passenger Locos are designed for 160 kmph and Goods Locos are designed for 100 kmphperhaps Suresh Prabhu was CONNED in believing Alstom Locos may be better at 3 times Cost – a 6000 HP Loco designed for 120 kmph has around 20% less PULLING POWER Than a 6000 HP Loco Designed for 100 kmph. THIS IS TOTAL LUNATICS BECAUSE FRIEGHT TRAINS ARE OPERATED AT BEST EFFIENCY AT UNDER 70 KMPH.

For two decades India had inducted German Coach Technology – Coaches can operate at over 160 kmph are lighter durable can carry much more load SAVE ENERGY allow faster acceleration and made of stainless steel offer Cleanliness and durability but India two decades later manufacture just 121 of 1701 Cars Manufactured at RCF.Railway was actually EXPECTED to order DOUBLE DECK Stainless Coaches and Double Production capacity at RCF. Deploying these Double Deck Cars Railways Revenue may go up by 60% without stretching railway platforms.

[Rail Coach Factory Kapurthala has announced that it achieved its highest ever production of 1701 coaches of 23 types during the year to March 31 2014, ahead of the plant’s design capacity of 1 500 coaches/year. To ‘bring world class railway technology to the common man’, 121 LHB type stainless steel coaches were supplied for non-AC mail/express trains, and RCF plans to switch over completely to production of LHB type coaches in the near future.]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_Evolution_Series

Diesel Engines are most polluting Railway Asset – when India buys 1000 such Locos of 4500 HP to 6000 HP means adding to 40,000 MW of Diesel Generation Capacity even as most of India’s Truck Lines are already Electrified. In 12th Plan Electrification target is 6500 RKM – by the time Diesel Locos shall be delivered India shall exceed 40,000 RCM.

 

[‘During the first three years of 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17), 4,042 Route Kilometer (RKM) of Railway Track has been electrified against the total target of 6500 RKM. As on 31.03.2015, total electrified RKM stands at 26,269. During the financial year 2014-15, 1,089 RKM has been electrified by CORE.’]

 

India Railways shall be ordering New Locos to Serve 200 kmph Speed Passenger Trains. AT THE MOMENT INDIAN RAILWAYS IS ENTIRRELY UNDER FOREIGN AIDED HIGH COST GROWTH MODEL – NEGLECTING BEST OF INDIAN CAPABILITIES .

Adoption of legislation by the U.S. Congress to authorize the 2010 Quota and Governance Reforms: IMF

Four emerging market countries ( Brazil , China , India , and Russia ) will be among the ten largest members of the IMF

The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) approved proposals that will lead to a major overhaul of the Fund’s quotas and governance, strengthening the Fund’s legitimacy and effectiveness. The United States Congress approval of these reforms is a fundamental governance overhaul in the Fund’s 65-year history and the biggest ever shift of influence in favour of emerging market and developing countries to recognize their growing role in the global economy.

Main Outcomes of the 2010 Quota and Governance Reforms:

Ø All 188 members’ quotas will increase as a result of the agreed bolstering of the Fund’s quota resources to about SDR 477 billion (about US$659.67 billion) from about SDR 238.5 billion (about US$329.83 billion).

Ø More than 6% of quota shares will shift to dynamic emerging market and developing countries and also from over-represented to under-represented members. Moreover, the total shift in voting share to emerging market and developing countries as a whole will be 5.3 percent, when combined with the 2008 quota and voice reform.

Ø Four emerging market countries ( Brazil , China , India , and Russia ) will be among the ten largest members of the IMF. Other top 10 members include the United States , Japan , and the four largest European countries ( France , Germany , Italy , and the United Kingdom ).

Ø The quota shares and voting power of the IMF’s poorest member countries will be protected.

Ø For the first time, the IMF’s Board will consist entirely of elected Executive Directors, ending the category of appointed Executive Directors (currently the members with the five largest quotas appoint an Executive Director).

Ø Advanced European countries have committed to reduce their combined Board representation by two chairs.

Ø The doubling of quotas together with the shift in quota shares and the move to an all-elected Board mark a significant step forward in the process of IMF quota and governance reforms.
