Over the last fi1./e>~~Jej;g¢veraJ people including members of armed forces have. tihgf~qgiitily laid down their lives to keep th~ tricolour flying in its · ftilt:'!19'iy( · . ·:· . · . .The significance of the colours and the chakra in the National Fla:g 'was amply described by Dr. S. Radhakrishnan in the Constituent Assembly which unanimously adopted the National Flag. Dr. ··s. Radhakrishnan explained-e''Bbegwa or the saffron colour denotes renunciation of disinterestedness. Our leaders must be indifferent to material gains and dedicate themselves to their work. The white in the centre is light, the path of truth to guide our conduct. The green shows our relation to son, our relation to the plant life here on which all other life depends. The Ashoka Wheel in the center of the white is the wheel of the law of dhanna, Truth or satya, dharma or virtue ought to be the controlling principles of those who work under this flag. Again, the wheel denotes motion, There is death in stagnation. There is life in movement. India should no more resist change, it must move and go forward. The wheel represents the dynamism of a peaceful change." There is Universal aff ection and respect for, and loyalty to, the National Flag. Yet, a perceptible lack of awareness is often noticed not only amongst people but also in the organizations/agencies of the Government, in regard to· laws, practices and conventions that apply to the display of the National Flag.

  • 1 Draft for Discussion Civil Services of Pakistan A
    DRAFT FOR DISCUSSION CIVIL SERVICES OF PAKISTAN A PROPOSED FRAMEWORK RATIONALE FOR THE CIVIL SERVICE REFORM. A competent, effective and neutral Civil Service is the backbone of any country’s governance structure. Countries that do not have an Organized Civil Service system are at a relative disadvantage in executing their programs and policies. Pakistan was fortunate in having inherited a steel frame for its bureaucracy from the British. The purpose and motivation of the British in developing and supporting this steel frame were quite different from the requirements of an independent and sovereign country. This steel frame could, however, have been modified to suit and adapt to changed circumstances but there was not much point in dismantling the structure itself which had been built over a century. The major difficulty in the post independence period in Pakistan lay in the inability to replace the colonial practice of empowering the privileged class of executive/ bureaucratic system by a new democratic system of governance at local levels. The historical record of political institutional evolution in Pakistan is quite weak and that has had its toll on the quality of civil service overtime. The boundaries between policy making and execution got blurred, the equilibrium in working relationship between the Minister and Civil Servants remained shaky and uneasy and the sharing of decision making space remained contested and unsettled. The patrimonial state model with its attendant mai-bap culture and patronage dispensation mechanism remains intact in its essence although the form has changed many times over. The broadening of privileged class by the inclusion of military bureaucracy and political elites has only reinforced the patrimonial tendencies.

  • Flag of India (Tiranga) �
    20 August,2021 Friday 3 GUJ AIR SQN NCC RAJKOT GROUP, GUJRAT DTE. Flag of India (Tiranga) ϝ The National Flag of India (Hindi: Tiraṅgā) is a horizontal rectangular tricolour of India saffron, white and India green; with the Ashoka Chakra, a 24-spoke wheel, in navy blue at its centre. It was adopted in its present form during a meeting of the Constituent Assembly held on 22 July 1947, and it became the official flag of the Dominion of India on 15 August 1947. The flag was subsequently retained as that of the Republic of India. In India, the term "tricolour" almost always refers to the Indian national flag. The flag is based on the Swaraj flag, a flag of the Indian National Congress designed by Pingali Venkayya. ● Name:-Tiraṅgā(meaning "Tricolour") ● Use :- National flag ● Proportion:-2:3 ● Adopted:-22 July 1947; 73 years ago ● Design:-A horizontal triband of Indi saffron, white, and India green; charged with a navy blue wheel with 24 spokes in the centre. ● Designed by:-Pingali Venkayya By law, the flag is to be made of khadi, a special type of hand-spun cloth or silk, made popular by Mahatma Gandhi. The manufacturing process and specifications for the flag are laid out by the Bureau of Indian Standards. The right to manufacture the flag is held by the Khadi Development and Village Industries Commission, who allocates it to regional groups. As of 2009, the Karnataka Khadi Gramodyoga Samyukta Sangha has been the sole manufacturer of the flag. Usage of the flag is governed by the Flag Code of India and other laws relating to the national emblems.

Every organisation, whether big or small adheres to bureaucratic structure in some form or the other. Lately, the bureaucracy has come under severe criticism. Most people refer to it only negatively. Yet, despite its manifest defeciencies or exposed vices, no organisation, whether it is in governmental, public or private sector, has been able to do away with bureaucracy. On the contrary, all big institutions or organisations, for example, educational institutions, service agencies, research bodies, charitable trusts etc., have made the bureaucratic structure a vital part of their existence. Thus it can be stated that bureaucracy has a strong staying and survival capacity. Even the critics and opponents admit that there is more to be gained by keeping or retaining bureaucracy than abandoning it.

HEADNOTE: As far back as 1972, the Uttar Pradesh Government by G.O. No. 43/90/66-Apptt. 4 dated July 18, 1972 announced "for the physically handicapped persons, the reservation in all the services under the Government shall be 2%". AH the Government Departments were directed to follow the policy for reservation in services accordingly. Later, by G.O.
