Re: [Assam] Spectre haunting the rust belt
The decline in US economy is not as bad as it is portrayed in the media abroad. At least in Houston, I find the restaurants still packed during the weekend, having to wait for 40 minutes to get a table. The patrons must have an income from somewhere. The number of panhandlers (another word for beggars) has not increased at street corners. Either the welfare system is taking care of them or the media is inflating the decline story. Or may be, it just may be, it is different in Texas. :-) You know in Texas, we don't care whether it is rusted or not (ref to rust belt in Wisconsin), we just clean it and make it work again.

But, if it is rooted to the declineof the economy, it may last awhile. Perhaps, you will know betterbeing there.Uttam Kumar BorthakurXXUttam, This is not a big issue in USA. It has happened in the past. Senators in Texas stayed away from Austin for two weeks one time. But sense prevailed, they came back and took care of their business. People like Jesse Jackson only bark, there is no bite. The states in USA have to balance their budget and that's what the governor is trying to do. The bone of contention is where he is trying to cut the costs. There will be a compromise. Rest assured, Egypt like situation will not develop over this. Partisan politics will finally bow down to common sense.

[Assam] Babu with a conscience?
Some thoughts: 1. Is whistle blowing becoming accepted in India? 2. Is the official going to be punished as implied in the news at the end? 3. Was the leak politically motivated? 4. Is the word Babu accepted in Indian media now for a government official? Dilip Deka Bangalore babu leaked Antrix-Devas papers? BANGALORE: Top sources have said that the Antrix-Devas papers were allegedly leaked by a senior bureaucrat/official from Bangalore, who now works in New Delhi in some sort of an advisory role. Sources told TOI that the official who had access to the papers allegedly leaked them to certain persons of a political party, which then initiated a campaign against the space department and the PMO itself. The official worked in Bangalore for 14 to 22 months. Isro officials said that only particular bits of information on the contract could be shared in public, and so they were not aware how other portions of information came into the public domain. The leak happened within the past 60 days, and the Isro-Antrix controversy came up in the last 10 days. The official who had allegedly leaked the papers was placed in New Delhi very recently, which indicates that the leak might have happened around the time the Centre was initiating action to place the official in New Delhi. Space sources say the leak happened from Bangalore as the agreement papers were in Bangalore. The papers were accessible to certain persons and officials. If under RTI, Isro is empowered to give only certain portions of information on the contract, how did information not admissible under RTI reach the public domain? This explains how the official with access to the papers communicated information other than what is permissible under law, a source said. Sources said if private agreement papers under law are leaked, persons responsible for it could be liable for action under law. That such an official gets another posting raises questions about what else the official could do. There have been allegations of corruption against the official.
