12 List of important Gazette Notifications and steps RRP proposes

(A detailed  version of this chapter in notes #301.012 on http://facebook.com/mehtarahulc )

GN means Gazette Notification  i.e. an order issued by Cabinet Ministers to Secretaries, Collectors and citizens. GNs are binding on officers and citizens unless and until canceled by some judges. This chapter has some of the 200 GNs I at RRP have proposed.

12.1        The first, only  and non-negotiable demand

The first GN I propose, namely TCP is as follows –

o  Collector would put citizen’s affidavit (if citizen wants) on website of PM/CM for a fee

o  Patwari/Talati would allow citizens to register Yes-No on any affidavit for Rs 3/- fee.

o  Yes-No count is not binding on PM, CM etc

The TCP is proposed at National, State as well as City/District, Tahsil and Gram levels

12.2        The next five important proposals

  1. Using TCP, gather public opinion on MRCM : MRCM draft enacts procedures so that the royalties from mineral mines and rents from Govt plots go as — 1/3rd to India’s Military and 2/3rd  amongst citizens of India. Details :  Say Rs 30000 crores is collected in the month of say Jan-2008 from land rent from GoI plots and GoI mineral ores. Then as per this MRCM draft Rs 10,000 crores will go to the Military and Rs 200 will go to each of the 100 cr citizens. Essentially, each citizen will have an account in local SBI or post office, from where he can collect the cash once a month. If every citizen collects cash once a month, GoI will need no more than 120,000 clerks. Existing PSU banks have over 600,000 clerks. So giving mineral ore royalties and land rent to citizens is manageable.
  2. Using TCP, gather public opinion on Right to Recall Police Chief : Enact law by which citizens can replace District Police Chief
  3. Using TCP, gather public opinion on Right to Recall PM\CM : Enact law by which citizens can replace CM\PM before election
  4. Using TCP, gather public opinion on Right to Recall SC-Cj : Enact constitutional Gazette Notification by which we commons can expel/replace the Supreme Court Chief judge if the need be, with the approval of the existing Supreme Court judges.
  5. Using TCP, gather public opinion on Reducing Reservation : Enact a law that would decrease reservation with support of poor SC, ST and OBCs (details are given in chap-36).

Constitutional validity of Right to Recall PM, CM SC-Cj etc (demand no. 2-4)

Some eminent intellectuals have been wrongly campaigning that our drafts to materialize demands no. 2-4 are unconstitutional. They are all wrong. The drafts I have proposed are 100% Constitutional.

Blanket Commitment to Democracy

I will try to raise a mass movement asking the commons of India to force the CMs\PM to print TCP draft. If such a mass movement doesn’t happen, I have nothing to offer. When if the mass movement for TCP happens and succeeds to force PM to print TCP-GN, then I will register about 100-200 affidavits each containing drafts of one GN. After that, I will ask citizens to register YESes at Talati’s (Patwari’s)  offices over these affidavits .

I do not insist that citizens make me or my men MPs to get these GNs passed. Nor I shall never ever lobby before MPs, MLAs, CMs or PM to get these laws passed. I will not stop MPs and MLAs of any party from enacting any of the laws we have proposed. But I will ask only the citizens to enact these laws and not the MPs, MLAs.

To PM, CM, MPs and MLAs, I have one and only one request : please print TCP draft.
