Such statements are always controversial. There are ancient, modern, Indian and foreign views. so there will always be some supporters and opponents whatever you speak on issues like condoms or sex education. There is no doubt that RSS/ BJP has distinct cultural and religious outlook which reflect in leaders' statements. You can't avoid noise. Both- supporters and opponents- will make noise. As regards infiltration in bureaucracy, this is seen most in states. The central bureaucracy- at least at lower and middle level- is relatively free of political interference.

Bureaucracy has no views of its own. It is suppose to strictly follow the rules made on laws passed by the legislatures. The legislature will reflect the views of the party in power and that ideology will prevail till they are in power. Bureaucracy does not change, it is the political masters who change.

Practically, even the legislation is drafted by bureaucrats, the MPs questions are answered by bureaucrats. There are very few politicians who really do some thing. Most of them only make shouts and fool people.

One really cany imagine Lalu coming up with all those proposal for railways, but the credit goes to the minister since he or she is ultimately in power for that dept and without their say so bureaucrats will not be able to pass anything. I wish there was a system where each department identifies experts in that particular field as advisors ( officially) to the minister in charge ....

Bureaucrates are no bigger than a stenographer , who write what the minister dictates.[/quote

In democracy it is the will of the people which operates through elected representatives and is given shape by bureaucracy. It is the direction which is provided by the Ministers and given shape by bureaucracy and it becomes a policy when passed by legislatures. Lalu gave direction that railways must make profits and gave freedom to his bureaucrats and railways turned the corner.

This is what is supposed to be. But we don't have ministers of right calibre. In fact, in most cases, it is the senior bureaucrats who take decisions and ministers simply go by the dotted line. In fact, the entire government is run by the middle level and lower level clerks. They are the back bone of entire government. That is why Indian Civil Service (now IAS) is called steel frame.

I think that all miistries have experts/ advisors for specific fields. Each ministry has a financial advisor and also experts on technical matters. Some times. a ministry does not need many experts. Then they get some on deputation. Many times, decision is taken after consulting other ministries also. So system is okay.

I have experience of dealing with a dew Central Ministries. There is no dearth of knowledge nor of competent persons. However there is dilution in effective implementation down the line which gives the negative impression. This area needs to be tightened and can be done by publicizing government programs to the beneficiaries and alert citizen groups can monitor.

I think that it is duty of every citizen to help the beneficiary. When I came to know of 'samajvaadi pension scheme' of U.P. government, I informed two or three persons who are eligible to the scheme. I knew that the beneficiary being uneducated would not get the pension without some active help. I suggested her to approach the member of municipal corporation living nearby. This worked. The member helped her get form and complete this and pursue the case. As the govt. is of Samajvaadi Party, I referred the beneficiary to corporater of the Samajvadi Party. The grass root politicians are generally helpful in these cases. The govt. officials would not approach the beneficiaries. The beneficiaries have to approach the govt. office. Here the role of social and political workers at grass root level gets significance.
