ICICIDirect.com is crap..

Well, this post is for someone who is interested in trading in NSE or/and BSE (for all those who don't know, NSE stands for National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange and they are major stock exhnages for India).
Well, I have been using services from ICICIDirect.com which has totally detoriated since its inception. Now, their servers are so overloaded(well, this shows their success story but failure story is going to be seen soon as they can't evolve themselves with the time)
So market opens at 9:55 AM and this is the time web servers stop responding to customers. This happens for next 1/2 to 1 hour depending on market. If market rising/crashing a little more than expected then better leave trying trading that day. Your customer friendly icicidirect won't let you do it.

May be it's seems good avoiding purchase of new servers or upgrading to high end infrastructure as it will be saving lot of money to ICICI guys but they shouldn't forget that this is happening at the expense of their valued customers confidence in them and once they start leaving apart then gosh, they won't require the existing servers as well.

It's just ICICI brand name for which people are approaching them and if they can't mantain that brand value then it's crap and yes they have been coz the performance issue is happening for past many months and the techies at ICICI can't seems good enough to handle it.

India Central/State job, frequency of transfers and how to get rid of honest officers

The first thing to notice about the govt jobs let it be frequent transfers of officials and this fact doesn't vary across the state though frequency of transfers differs.

So here's the concept:

#1 If the official is clean, can't be motivated to accept bribe and is against corruption in whole system then he is best suitable where no one is needed like posting somewhere in very remote area/village. That place is of no use for others as there is no extra source of income so better to send honest officer.

#2 If the officer is extremely corrupt and is biased to some political party then he enjoyes his years while his favorite party has formed govt. As soon as the govt changes, his position, location everything changes.

How to get rid of honest officers

#1 Transfer him frequently until he understands the power of corruption and dishonesty or he succumbs, suicides or dies of brain tumor.
#2 Transfer him to some deadly forest or to valley of death like chambal where only animals in form of human resides. So, he will be officially killed someday in next few days or months( things rarely goes in years as the corrupt persons have good repo with dacoits/terrorists so they are privileged to ask some favor).
#3 Put him in any kind of trouble and let him handle it for whole life.

This blog came into my mind when I read about our respected, retired, honourable Chief Justice of India Shri Y K Sabharwal. He was the person who lifed the morale of normal Indian citizens by taking preemptive steps against govt and various political parties and various govt/non-govt organizations when everyday, we, the Indian Citizens were seeing the corruption happening by our ministers, officials on daily basis. He did more than anyone can expect.

He fought against various ministers, officials on behalf of every Indian and tried his best to bring justice for everyone.

Now, as he is retired so obviously, it's the best time to take revenges. Blaming anyone in India is just something which can be done anywhere, anytime to anyone (except corrupt powerful persons).

I hope, that someone powerful who has really appreciated the work by our Chief Justice of India will come forward to reply to those who are just trying to set an example for other honest officials for not to be honest.

Why some people born, living in India can't be Indian?

Strange but true, India is one of the countries which has the maximum number of corrupt people living in, so corrupt, that they can sell any information and can do anything against their motherland.
If you are not sure, then there are some generic examples though there might be some exceptions but yes generally it's true,

You have some work in govt office like water, phone, electricity even passport office then you gotta keep load of money in your pocket and have to start giving from gatekeeper to the high ranking officer. Now, a good part is they have collaborated to form a corrupt system so now at times, you need to pay money only to one person and it will be distributed among them. Isn't a progress at least somewhere.

There are daily/weekly terror attacks in India, the only thing changing is localities, cities. How can this be happening until and unless terrorist have a good network.
Above all, how you figure out a corrupt coz he can be from jobless fellow to govt/private sector official, to policemen to politician to minister.

Even some parties in India seems like funded from anti-Indian countries which keep stressing Indian govt to keep kissing the feets of countries which can never do good to India.

Mr Karat, a communist, no matter what, China, Russia are their favorites and because they have some MPs, they keep pushing the govt for China. Well, there shud be govt policy to keep checking the funding of political parties from foreign countries.

Gitanjali Nagpal - Next happening in India

What so special with Gitanjali Nagpal, initially drug addict, later on model & wife & then for many years was a beggar. But few days back, she got attention from media & ultimatily a celebrity.

Media asking questions like how a model can be begging??

Well, for anyone who has been in India and has been watching his surroundings then obviously, he must have seen rise and fall of peoples. I have seen rickshaw wala turning into contractors, chat thela wala opening hotels and at the same time, shifting bussinessman from haveli to a rented 2 room flat.

So what makes so special about Gitanjali? Can you figure out..

No, just again a new hype created by media like they created earlier for Prince - a child who rise to be become millionare ( and giving media a chance to earn in billions) after falling in the trench.

Are Indian minds free from slavery tendency?

Don't want to put too many words as things can be seen without any confusion. In India, people still have biased nature for descenents due to their impressive family hierarchy.
Now, once a MP employs that every member of his/her family has the right to be MP, MLC, MLA for that area. Is in't funny?

Country is free but the citizens are not??? How sad is this fact but yes, it seems like existing. So

1. Sunil Dutt->Sanjay Dutt(getting too much support because of his father and bollywood association else would have coinsidered terrorist on first step)
2. Indira Gandhi-> Became PM directly coz she was Nehru's daughter.
3. Rajiv Gandhi -> Become PM from pilot coz he was son of Indira
4. Soniya Gandhi-> Most powerful women as she is associated with Nehru family(a.k.a Gandhi virtual surname)
5. Arun Govil/Deepika - Become MP due to their role in telivision serial
6. Jayalalita - Become so important and CM due to relation with M.G.R
7. Rahul/Priyanka Gandhi - Able to attract so much crowd as they are supposed to be the prince and princess
8. Jyotiraditya Scindia - Son of Madhavrao Scindia and MP of gwalior
9. Mulayam's Yadav son is going to be MP as he is Mulayam's son.
10. Raja Bhaiya considered as king in pratapgarh because everyone he is still recognized as king.

Can we have free India with open minds, less egoes & more professionalism?
