PMO RATTLED ON KANPUR INCIDENT

Prime Minister Office directed Cabinet Secretariat which monitors the
SPG, to be cautious about the PM travel plans which should not be
too much of harrassment to the common man.

This directions comes with the backdrop of recently incident in Kanpur.
On Friday almost all language and National TV news channels flashed
this news. PMO maintained a stotic silence yesterday. In a soft spoken
reaction, PMO also takes on the print media of Kanpur for exaggerating this
incident. PMO is also equally concerned about the over play of Media on subjects like how
can VIP security in India be made less inconvenient for the common man
In a direction to Cabniet Secretary PMO stated to review the system periodically
without affecting comforts of the common-man.

PMO WANTS FINANCE MINISTRY TO KEEP QEIET

Finance Ministry is not keen to press the Ordinance
IRDA-SEBI to be ractified by the Parliament. Internal contradictions
in UPA2 has since surfaced. Senior officials of PMO are
seeking advice from Leader of Lok Sabha Dr Pranab Mukherjee
who is also the Finance Minister to quietly allow the ordinance
to lapse. UPA2 is consisting of financial and leagl weizards
Still they are not wanting to proceed furthre with enacting it
as a law. BJP may not be supporting and it is evident that CPM
would oppose. PMO is not showing keen interest. Put the ball
in Pranab Mukherjee domain.
