amiret Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Why do all Indians have to use Microsoft Excel to use the latest ITR forms to file returns online ? Surely the Indian Govt is capable of creating ITR forms that can be used with Open Office.
Precambrian Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 Why do all Indians have to use Microsoft Excel to use the latest ITR forms to file returns online ? Surely the Indian Govt is capable of creating ITR forms that can be used with Open Office. They can file online in the website (I did that last year) without having to use Excel or anything. Further cannot open office deal with xls and xml files? In addition there is an option to download a Java executable to do the returns (which is a free program FYI)

amiret Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Prashant Bhushan @pbhushan1 Jul 13 CBI raids Teesta but fails to file appeal against bogus discharge of Amit Shah in fake encounters. Obviously Modi govt misusing caged parrot When the prosecution colludes with the accused , there is no hope for Justice and the Courts will look on helplessly. This Caged parrot will also ensure MP police and Govt get a "cl3an ch!t" in the Vyapam scam.

asterix Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 ^ That caged parrot should investigate Vyapam has been a vociferous demand of the opposition parties... And the demand has been granted...

amiret Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 BSF forced to restrain themselves and NOT respond to pakistan firing ? BSF told to show restraint in face of Pakistan firing : The first incident was reported around 8.45 am on Wednesday, where a BSF constable deployed at border outpost Sidharwan was injured. This was followed by heavy shelling of 81 mm mortar at Gakhriyal. Unlike last year, BSF restrained itself on the orders from New Delhi as it was felt that Pakistan forces were trying to provoke them in a bid to derail the peace attempt initiated during the meeting between Modi and Sharif. At many places along the border, BSF troops complained of "restlessness" for "not retaliating" to Pak provocation. can only imagine the abuses that would have been hurled at MMS if he had done something similar. http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/48092213.cms?utm_source=contentofinterest&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=cppst

rkt.india Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Talks with any Pak pm will not yield anything because policies are driven by army.
mishra Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 ^ Pak has a ISI which has learned a lot from CIA while co-operating during Russia-Afghan-US cold war era. Just like CIA, ISI gives a damn about what a government chosen by people of its country want to do. Since Osama's last couple of years, That co-operation have been cut off. Madarasa educated will soon take over various departments and wont be difficult to deal with them
amiret Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Perhaps the Great Tooter should analyze and take lessons from his predecessors record instead of regurgitating his own pre-election lies : In what would seem to be a counter-intuitive finding, new research has shown that the years from 2003-04 to 2011-12, when the Manmohan Singh government had been in power in two terms since assuming office in 2004, had been the golden phase of manufacturing employment growth in Independent India. Job generation in the manufacturing sector rose almost 7 per cent on an average year after year during the period, an analysis by Pankaj Vashisht, researcher, Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations, has found. Manufacturing employment growth has been of intense debate in India. The “dismal record” of Dr. Singh’s government was one of the central themes of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s campaign during the Lok Sabha election in 2014. Mr. Vashisht’s analysis is based on data from the Annual Survey of Industry published by the Central Statistical Organisation. LINK
seedhi Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Perhaps the Great Tooter should analyze and take lessons from his predecessors record instead of regurgitating his own pre-election lies : LINKManmohan (the bootlicker of the Italian barmaid) DESTROYED the Indian economy and that is what led to the Indian public reducing his pathetic party to 44 seats. No amount of demented "research" can change that. In terms of jobs - Vajpayee govt created many more jobs than UPA in less number of years. ........... Statistics confirm Ashok's observation. The Vajpayee-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government created 58 million jobs during its 1999-2004 tenure (with some spillover effect), according to data from the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO). The UPA government managed to add just a fraction, 15 million jobs — 14 million during its first term from 2004-2009 and the two years of 2011 and 2012 — in seven years, according to NSSO data. ............. http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-job-promises-bite-the-dust-1971681If only the most spineless, slavish, and dishonorable Manmohan had learnt from Vajpayee fiscal discipline, the country would not have suffered a wasted decade of opportunities.
seedhi Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Jobs market shrinks 25% during UPA regime: Crisil As the UPA prepares to leave office over the next three-four months, it will be leaving behind not only a decelerating economy with untamed inflation and weak government finances, but one that will be unable to produce jobs in the quantities required over the next five years. According to a Crisil report, between 2011-12 and 2018-19, which will be the terminal year of the next government if it survives its full term, the number of people entering the workforce will be over 85 million, of whom 51 million will be seeking employment. But the rating agency believes that the non-agricultural sector will be able to churn out only around 38 million jobs, forcing the balance 12-13 million to return to low-quality, low-productivity rural or agricultural jobs. The 38 million new jobs created over the next five years would be a 25 percent drop from the 52 million created in the seven years between 2004-05 and 2011-12, which, in turn was lower than the 62 million created during the 1999-2004 NDA period. Clearly, the economy is not creating as many jobs as it did earlier? What has gone wrong? The Crisil report traces the problem to two factors: inflexible labour laws, which militate against more employment of labour, and the shift in the growth pattern towards less labour-intensive jobs such as IT and IT-enabled services. The clear job-destroyer during UPA has been automation due to rigid labour laws. Says Crisil: “The employment elasticity of manufacturing - defined as the percentage increase in employment for every percentage point increase in manufacturing GDP - deteriorated sharply to an average 0.17 in the seven years to FY 2012 from 0.68 in the seven years to FY 2005. Put another way, it took four times as much investment to create one job during UPA than it did during NDA. It is estimated that one or two people in IT/ITES can produce Rs 10 lakh worth of real value-added GDP, whereas the higher job-creating sectors in manufacturing have been recruiting less by increasing automation. The reason is obvious: the IT/ITES business is not constrained by labour laws, while the manufacturing sector is. To make matters worse, Crisil now sees the likely growth rate during 2013-19 at not more than 6 percent per annum, making it tougher to generate more jobs. Says Crisil Chief Economist Dharmakirti Joshi: "We expect the Indian economy to expand at a slower pace of 6 percent per year in 2013-19 from 8.5 percent in the 2005-12. Further, GDP growth is driven increasingly by less labour-intensive services such as financial (services), real estate and business services (including IT-ITES). For example, in FY 2012, these services, with nearly 19 percent share in GDP, employed only 3 out of 100 workers in the economy. Employment generation in the evolving scenario will therefore pose a severe test for Indian policy makers." Net result: with jobs expanding slowly, more people will slink back to agriculture – a reversal of the trend seen over the last decade. Says Mukesh Agarwal, President, CRISIL Research: "It is desirable to pull more and more people out of agriculture since it is a low-productivity sector, with only a 14 percent share in GDP, but around 49 percent share in employment. The old trend of migration from agriculture will reverse with fewer non-farm job opportunities coming in the way of achieving this." So what will the new government have to do to pull the country back from the brink? Crisil says it will have to check the "falling intensity of labour participation in the manufacturing sector by simplifying labour laws and encouraging the growth of labour-intensive industries (such as textiles, gems and jewellery and leather)." It will also have to develop sectors such as health and education and invest in physical infrastructure and construction – which were major job creators during the NDA regime. http://www.moneycontrol.com/news/economy/jobs-market-shrinks-25-during-upa-regime-crisil_1022344.html?utm_source=ref_article
amiret Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 CBI Parrots it's master's desperation and calls Teesta Setalvad a threat to national security :haha: Social activist Teesta Setalvad's lawyers have hit out at the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for calling her a threat to national security to a Mumbai Court yesterday. The agency was opposing the anticipatory bail of the activist in a case of alleged violations related to foreign funding of her NGOs. Ms Setalvad's lawyer, Vijay Hiremath told NDTV, "It's extremely ridiculous that she is a threat to national security. The documents that were seized have been earlier given to other investigation agencies as well. Also no foreign currency was found in the house." Great Snooper has always felt threatened by uncomfortable Truths. If only the "Ghazwa Herald" was still around to label Teesta an LeT operative.
rkt.india Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 CBI is parrot that's why they told court about Amit Shah running a gang of extortion.

seedhi Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 For Amiret.Whether Teesta is guilty of violating the law is going to be tested in court. But one thing is true - the previous UPA govt and Teesta had leveled false allegations against Amit Shah and the CBI then had filed a charge sheet against him accusing him of running an extortion racket. Amit Shah stands exonerated of those charges. The court has decided.
