Dear Mr. Vohra ji,
 
Let's ponder over it. How to overcome the situation. There are many more such things which are happening and we read them in newspapers/tv channels and shed 'artificial' or natural tears and feel helpless. Can't we collide our mind and come to a conclusion which we may focus to Govt. But one thing all these raise because we wish to make money quickly - people don't fear or feel 'guilt' which lead to 'greed'! One thing is certain that such things will not happen in our mahan bharat unless and until there is always a person or a group of persons to protect/shield you (the culprits). There is no 'fear' and there is no 'punishment'. People could overcome both with nefarious means and hence they become greedy and resort to all unlawful activities. What 'morality' cannot purchase 'money' can purchase.  We have come to this stage! Let's not look to God to save us but we have to look ourselves to save us. Otherwise, posterity will suffer and may resort to revolt. Should we proceed to this stage? FOOD FOR THOUGHT AND ACTION!

"A letter from Mom and Dad" - I kinda cried when i first read it.

Dangerous buildings in transyamuna area

While returning from public grievances commission office after hearing in chairman chamber, I saw a large number of police force and tv channels vehicles.
I found that a four storied building in laxmi nagar along vikas marg is being got vacated because it is in dangerous condition.
Lalita park building collapse is still afresh in our memory.
Human lives must be protected at all costs.
As a responsible body, we must finalize our response to this issue.

Your Chances Of Getting An Ambulance: 50%

Delhi government may have managed to save its ace by buying 31 ambulances before the Commonwealth Games 2010, but two-thirds of the fleet are still lying parked -and unused -on the lawns of Maulana Azad Medical College for the last two months.
 
Soon after the Games, 10 ambulances were handed over to the Centralised Accident and Trauma Services (CATS), which provides ambulance service on call. But the rest of the ambuances, including 10 with basic life support and 11 with advanced life support facilities, are lying idle.

"This is criminal waste of pubic money, especially when CATS s unable to provide ambulances most of the time," said a doctor from a government hospital, wishing to remain anonymous.

Illegal Floors In 1500 Buildings At Lalita Park, After Survey, MCD Is All Set To Take Action Soon

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has suddenly woken up to the problem of illegal construction in the city after the house collapse in Lalita Park around two weeks ago. The civic agency has identified around 1,500 buildings which have constructed illegal floors in the area and will soon initiate action against them.
 
Under the Master Plan-2021, the restriction for vertical growth in the city is 15 meter in most parts of the city. MCD stated that number of such buildings are likely to double in the coming weeks as the survey to identify such illegal construction is still ongoing in Laxmi Nagar and surrounding areas.

``We had initiated a survey to identify illegally built floors and rooms which had been constructed in violation of the Master Plan-2021 norms. Around 1,500 buildings have been identified so far and we will initiate action against them very soon. Since the survey is ongoing, the number of such buildings are likely to increase further in the coming days,'' said standing committee chairman, Yogender Chandolia.

He further stated that demolition would have to be initiated in all these cases. ``We cannot provide any sort of relief to people who have carried out such construction as it is in direct violation of the MPD-2021,'' added Chandolia.

Call 100 To Get A Drop Home

In a decision that would be welcomed by all, the Delhi Police have decided to drop any woman home if she is stranded on the road. All she has to do is call '100' for help. These and other decisions were taken on Friday by the Delhi Police to ensure safety of women in the Capital, two days after a 30-year-old BPO employee was abducted and raped by five men while she was returning home from work.
 
"If any woman is stranded, she is advised to call the PCR helpline. The van will drop her to her house," said Rajan Bhagat, Delhi Police spokesperson.

The police added that Station House Officers of localities where girls from the northeastern part of the country live in large numbers have also been directed to meet them and sensitise them about security on a regular basis.

"The police have also intensified patrolling and checking vulnerable roads at night," Bhagat said.

A senior police official said Special Commissioner (Crime) Ranjit Narayan will write to BPOs asking them to take necessary measures to ensure safety of their employees.

East Delhi RWAs Joint front

Dear Mr. Vohra,
I was immensely delighted and inspired when I got your phone call today when I was in the temple. Yes, it was God's sent message from you to take 'care and concern'!  This is what is called 'building up and fortifying fraternity & friendship for ever'!     

Heartiest congratulations to all of us spearheaded by you for getting acclamation and appreciation for the work we are doing in the East Front for the welfare of all in East Delhi from our Hon'ble CM. Let's keep doing the service with smile to  attain greater height and soar above all!

It is high time that we consolidate all our 'common problems' together and focus to our Hon'ble CM, which I had highlighted from time to time!  As far as we are concerned i.e. Anand Vihar residential complex the 'builders' menace; carpetting of roads and service lanes, which are in a very bad shape; periodical cleaning of storm water drains with mechanism and sewarage; besides the most vital problem of 'of safety and security of residents and their belongings' which is causing concern and worry to all?

Hope you will take necessary action on the above and send a consolidated memoranda to Hon'ble CM and Hon'ble LG for looking into such matters for remedial action. You are fully aware that however much we maintain contact with officials at the lower level, nothing is achieved. More so with the elected representatives who do only lip service and extend help to only those who are closer to them! It is unfortunate but true!

With our deep regards and best wishes,

TK Balu

Property Prices May Crash As Loan Scam Hits Funding

Finance minister Pranab Mukherjee's direction to state-run lenders to prevent a recurrence of the loans-for-bribes scandal, and banks' decision to go for a critical appraisal of all real estate loans above Rs 50 crore may stall projects and drive developers to private funds. 
 
Liquidity for the sector may dry up as bankers turn cautious in sanctioning fresh loans, forcing builders to cut prices to improve cash position, helping prospective buyers who have been holding on due to high prices. 

DB Realty tumbled 10%, Indiabulls Real Estate lost 5.2%, DLF fell 3.8%, and Unitech declined 6% as a fund shortage threatens to derail their project execution, which had just started to show signs of recovery after the 2008 credit crisis. 

The arrest of eight finance executives by the Central Bureau of Investigation on Wednesday on charges of taking bribes to sanction loans does not lead to a systemic risk since the amount involved is tiny, bankers and bureaucrats said. It is getting more attention than it deserves, they said.

Jago India Jago

"Indians r poor but India is not a poor country". Says one of the Swiss bank directors. He says that "280 lac crore" of Indian money is deposited in Swiss banks which can be used for 'tax less' budget for 30 yrs. Can give 60 crore jobs to all Indians. From any village to Delhi 4 lane roads. Forever free power supply to more than 500 social projects. Every citizen can get monthly 2000/- for 60 yrs. No need of World Bank & IMF loan. Think how our money is blocked by rich politicians.
