Model Vacancy Announcement: Fill & Download for Free

There is a general trend of reducing the size of the bureaucracy. So, going ahead, there may be a reduction in the number of seats of UPSC. In fact, year on year, the total vacancies announced by UPSC are decreasing.But the reasoning assumed In the question is not correct. It's not entirely or even mainly to cut costs.It is due to privatization, deligitimization of the bureaucratic model, corruption of officialdom, red tapism and the dictum of Maximum Governance, minimum Government.

No, but beyond my own politics, and with the benefit of hindsight, I think Mitch made the rare mistake.The GOP could have sat Justices Garland, Gorsuch, and TBD. I’m sure there would have been muttering and politicking right now, but I don’t think there’d be a general sense of unfair play and foul hypocrisy among the average voter.The Court would have moved slightly liberal for two years and then significant conservative after Justice 2020 was announced.Instead Mitch created a justification to not hold hearings on Garland. And a whole lot of folks like me contacted our Senators because we felt that sort of politics was out of bounds. And our Senators wrote constituent reply letters like the one I’ll include below.The key passage is in the 4th paragraph.With respect to the vacancy on the Supreme Court, I will join my Senate Republican colleagues in insisting that President Obama not tip the balance of a closely divided Supreme Court in this presidential election year… In modern times, no President has filled a vacancy on the Supreme Court that arose during a presidential election year. There is a good reason for this. Waiting until after the election to fill Justice Scalia's seat will allow the American people a voice in determining the direction the Court will take in the coming years.2016: modern times2020: not modern times.2016: the President must not tip the balance of the Court!2020: the President must tip the balance of the Court!2016: waiting until after the election will allow the American people a voice in determining the direction of the Court.2020: the American people must not be allowed a voice.Generally speaking, if you’re going to create a rationale, and then abandon it 4 years later in a move that will seem hypocritical, beyond the pale, and outside the bounds of fair play to all but your most partisan supporters,* it’s best if it occurs when the country isn’t in the depths of the highest unemployment since the Great Depression, because then millions of people have nothing better to do than march.*“The poll found that 62% of American adults agreed the vacancy should be filled by the winner of the Nov. 3 matchup between Trump and Democratic former Vice President Joe Biden, while 23% disagreed and the rest said they were not sure.Eight out of 10 Democrats - and five in 10 Republicans - agreed that the appointment should wait until after the election.”Majority of Americans, including many Republicans, say wait for election to replace Ginsburg - Reuters pollDear Mr. Painter,Thank you for writing me regarding the Supreme Court of the United States. As we honor the life of Antonin Scalia and reflect on this consequential moment in American history, I greatly appreciate hearing your thoughts and concerns.While a wide array of life experiences and values have shaped the way I see America and the world, Antonin Scalia has been the single most important influence on my view of the Constitution and the proper role of judges in our Republic. I believe all judges, and especially Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court, should put the original meaning of our Constitution ahead of their policy preferences. Justice Scalia is the exact model for future nominations to the highest court in the land: a brilliant legal mind who served with honor, distinction and the sole legal objective to interpret and defend the Constitution as written.As your Senator, one of the most important roles I have is the opportunity to provide advice and consent on the President's judicial nominations. Federal judges serve lifetime terms, during which time they make decisions that impact the property, liberty, and even lives of Floridians. To warrant confirmation, judicial nominees must demonstrate not just legal excellence, but also the ability to put the rule of law above themselves.With respect to the vacancy on the Supreme Court, I will join my Senate Republican colleagues in insisting that President Obama not tip the balance of a closely divided Supreme Court in this presidential election year. Article II of the Constitution grants the President the power to nominate a candidate to the Supreme Court and the Senate the power to provide its advice and decide on whether to grant or withhold its consent to the President's nominee. In modern times, no President has filled a vacancy on the Supreme Court that arose during a presidential election year. There is a good reason for this. Waiting until after the election to fill Justice Scalia's seat will allow the American people a voice in determining the direction the Court will take in the coming years.It is an honor and a privilege to serve you in the United States Senate. I appreciate you offering your opinions on the Supreme Court, and will keep them in mind as Congress addresses related issues. If I can ever be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.Sincerely,Marco RubioUnited States Senator

Will the upcoming Delhi assembly election be the end of the Kejriwal era?I sincerely want this to be the end of Kejriwal era. If there is anything which I want wholeheartedly is to see Arvind Kejriwal out of the Indian politics. It pains to see when “assigned writers” write that Kejriwal planned a slap incident on him just to gain some sympathy from the public. While at the same time justifying the candidature of a terror accused candidate. It's disheartening to see the continuous propaganda from the BJP IT Cell aimed at character assasinating Arvind Kejriwal. It pains to see when “assigned writers” write fake answers on Kejriwal and gets thousands of upvotes. I may have issues with the PM or the UP CM. But one thing which I can assure you is that I will never write a fake answer just to defame them. Anyways, most of the people who oppose him on social media will start worshipping him the moment he says, “the temple should be built at Ayodhya”.Let me copy a Facebook post from the wall of https://www.facebook.com/vijnad18Almost every morning here in USA, I wake up to the good news that the AAP government in Delhi has made life for Delhites just that much sweeter, with some well deserved freebies.The AAP government had done the impossible by ensuring that Delhites get zero water bill for about 20,000 litres of water every month. They also achieved the seemingly impossible task by ensuring that Delhites get the cheapest electricity in the country, without any power cuts for five years in a row.As if this was not enough, AAP government took Delhites by surprise by announcing that consumption upto 200 units of electricity, would be FREE while low rates for higher consumption continue. And this is being hurting while ensuring that power companies make their profits too !These "freebies" are in addition to excellent and FREE education in government schools, in addition to ensuring that private schools too do not increase school fees randomly, the way it happened under the previous government and the way it is happening throughout the country.Delhites are also getting free quality health care in not only government hospitals but patients referred by government clinics are being treated for free even in private hospitals, for lack of enough government hospitals.2500 accident patients have been saved in one year alone, by the AAP government's revolutionary scheme to make it mandatory for every hospital to ensure that such patients receive immediate medical attention, within the golden hour or their licenses are suspended !To encourage citizens to rush these accident victims to the nearest hospital immediately, the government offers an incentive of Rs 2000, which just about 18 people have claimed so far, proving yet again that the human heart is still ticking, but want to avoid unnecessary harrasment from the police and hospitals, while rushing to save the lives of the accident victims.The AAP government is working round the clock to ensure that unauthorized colonies get drinking water, electricity and sewer drains and roads, so they can fulfill the supreme court requirements to make these colonies authorized, which incidentally covers 70% of the population and which has been expanding for decades, despite no basic amenities, which the rest of us take for granted.This is in addition to completing 23 flyovers in record time, besides Delhi's pride, the Signature Bridge, saving crores in most of them, simply by ensuring that it is completed on time, without any kickbacks for the government at all, a totally unheard of practise in the rest of the country.The AAP government by ensuring 3,40,000 CCTV's in Delhi, is covering women's safety, while the Delhi police under the central government suffers due to over work, poor salaries and lack of any initiative to fill up vacancies, leave alone expand it.Several green initiatives like rainwater harvesting , individual recycling water plants in housing colonies, several Sewage Treatment Plants, reviving 106 dead water bodies in Delhi, including two major lakes, providing solar energy initiatives in housing colonies, making it mandatory for government buildings to have these solar energy panels on their rooftops.Thus by no means is an exhaustive list, just a glimpse of all that has been achieved in less than five years of honest governance, despite all kinds of hurdles from the Lieutenant Governor, under instructions from the petty Narendra Modi government.If only the Delhi Development Authority had released lands to the AAP government earmarked for schools and hospitals, the government would have unleashed a spate of colleges and hospitals in Delhi, so no student has to struggle for admissions and none have to suffer for want of health care.While every other state in the country, strains under the state and centre's excesses in taxes without any returns, Delhites are being showered with gifts as returns for their taxes. These "freebies" according to the AAP government are paid for in advance with their taxes. These taxes which initially funded government's corrupt policies, now are being returned back to the citizens.Why has news of this model governance not spread then? Thanks to the media, which has been "instructed" to blow up any negative association, most even created, rather than focus on AAP's revolutionary work, which should have been ideal model's for the rest of the country to follow. Which citizens should be demanding from their state governments as well.Do we deserve the AAP model of governance? No way, let me tell you what kind of politicians we deserve.A 16 year old girl was raped in Unnao, UP by a BJP MLA. The girl along with her father went to the police station and the police instead of arresting the rape accused MLA arrested the girl's father and her father died under the police custody. All other eye witnesses died under mysterious circumstances. The girls Uncle was arrested for an 18 year old case. Just a few days ago the girl along with her mother, aunt and lawyer met with an accident. The girl lost her mother and aunt in the accident. The lawyer and the girl are in critical condition at the hospital.The family members have also claimed that the BJP MLA used to call them from inside the prison and used to threaten them to take the case back. Otherwise, he will get the entire family killed. Sakshi Maharaj even goes to meet the rape accused MLA inside the prison and congratulated him. It was only after a massive protest that the BJP suspended the rape accused MLA from the party. Not a single minister from the BJP went to meet the victim at the hospital. The state government didn't announce any sort of compensation to the victim or her family either.These are the kind of politicians we deserve. Imagine the kind of protest if the same would have happened in a Non-BJP ruled state. People who demanded Kejriwal to resign over just an accusation of corruption from Kapil Mishra haven't yet spoken a word on this incident.Ofcourse, not everyone can like Arvind Kejriwal. But when people write fake answers to defame him whereas not even opening their mouth against India's greatest CM Yogi Adityanath who didn't suspend a rape accused MLA from his party even after two years of accusation. Then somewhere down in my heart I believe, we deserve these kind of politicians and not someone like Arvind Kejriwal.
