Dinesh Singh Rawat says,
In copy book ways this seems to be good,but all depends on implementation of this step as police reform to lessen the burden on law and order keeping police, if this will lesson the burden of police than ok ,if not than it can work reversely.
As in India, most part of CID or intelligence are openly used for political purposes rarely used to help police in investigation.

Limousine Journey from Luxury to Rental Vehicle
On Saturday, I was stressed with my online assignments thus decided to free myself by doing off filed net surfing and reached at limousine cars.
Where, I know more about the luxury vehicle sedan especially one with a lengthened wheelbase or driven by a chauffeur
Limousines are the most expensive form of automobile ground transportation, limousines are culturally associated with extreme wealth or power, and are commonly cited as an example of conspicuous consumption.
Further, knew that the first automobile limousine built in 1902 and the word limousine is derived from the name of the French region Limousin, because this covered compartment physically resembled the cloak hood worn by the shepherds there.
The first “stretch limousine” was created in Fort Smith, Arkansas around 1928 by a coach company named Armbruster.
These cars were primarily used to transport famous “big band” leaders, such as Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman, and their bands and equipment. These early stretch limousines were often called “big band buses”.
But now days some limousines are owned by individuals, many are owned by governments to transport senior politicians, by large companies to transport executives, or by broadcasters to transport guests.
Additional to this now middle income group section of society has also started to enjoy less wealthy; limousines are also often hired during special events (most commonly weddings and funerals.
On asking further, I also came to know that many Indian settled in USA and UK have started their rental services of limousine cars, like KR Limo offering limousines rental services in Seattle Washington DC and other cities and states of U.S.

Taking on Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati, Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday joined the land war, pledging full support to farmers fighting against acquisition and promising not to desert them till their demands are met.
Sneaking into Bhatta Parsaul village, the epicenter of the agitation in western Uttar Pradesh, in the wee hours riding pillion on a motorcyle, he sat with the agitating farmers throughout the day in scorching heat to emphathise with their cause and women who lost their men.
"I feel ashamed to call myself Indian after seeing what has happened here. The (state) government here has unleashed atrocities on its own people," the Congress general secretary told the farmers.
Even as he sat on a dharna, a war of words erupted, with BJP terming it as a "drama" and wanting to know why the UPA government was still not acting on his earlier promise of bringing Land Acquisition Bill in Parliament.
The Congress, on its part, said it was keen to get on early passage of the bill in Parliament.
Gandhi, who sat with the farmers for over 12 hours, said he associated with them as they were demanding their "right" and there was "nothing wrong" in it.
"I want to tell you that I am with you till your demands are met. Till your work is not done, the Congress party will not desert you," he said to a thunderous applause from the gathering which shouted slogans hailing him.
SDM Vishal Singh met Rahul and asked him to end the dharna in view of the potential security risk to him in view of the situation in the area. Vishal Singh also expressed inability to provide security as he had come without intimation.
Digvijay Singh said till a judicial inquiry submitted a report no action should be taken against the farmers in respect of FIRs lodged against them.
He also demanded that all arrested farmers be released and that there should not be any forcible land acquisition.

After 2G Scam Subrata Roy Under ED Scaner for Madhu Koda, Jet Airways
New Delhi (ABC Live): Sahara Group headed by CEO Subrata Roy facing Enforcement Directorate investigation in 2G spectrum scam is also come under ED scanner for former Jharkhand CM Madhu Koda and Jet Airways' takeover of Sahara Airlines corruption cases.
The information regarding this was provided in the petition filed by ED's Assistant Director Rajeshwar Singh while seeking contempt action against Sahara group Chief Subrata Roy and two scribes for allegedly interfering with the investigation of the 2G spectrum case.
"There is yet another investigation which is popularly referred as Madhu Koda scam case in respect of which the division bench of Jharkhand High Court has issued directions, directing CBI and ED to investigate offences under Prevention of Money Laundering Act, Foreign Exchange Management Act," the petition said on Friday.
Further, Singh, in his petition, said "it may not be out of place to mention that Sahara Airlines, which is now taken over by Jet Airways and operated under the banner of Jetlite, are also facing investigations for violation under FERA (Foreign Exchange Regulation Act)".
The petition referred to the status reports filed by ED in the 2G case which stated that "S-Tel had arranged for certain funds from various groups to pay licence fee".
It alleged Sahara India Investment Corporation, now known as Sahara Prime City Ltd, had "invested Rs 14 crores in S-Tel on the same day (August 28, 2007) when S-Tel had applied for 16 telecom licences".
The petition said ED has been investigating Sahara's alleged involvement in Madhu Koda scam case where the agency suspects that "large amount of funds which are tainted money and proceeds of crime have been invested in Sahara Group companies by those accused persons with a view to projecting them as untainted money."
In another case of alleged FEMA violation, the petition said "Subrata Roy, along with others, has deposited an amount of Rs 150 crores, which has been rotated through a maze of financial transactions between accounts of Sahara Corporation and Sahara India within the same branch and bank."
Another Sahara Group company had paid Rs 9.50 crore in August 2007 to one Sky City Foundation Pvt Ltd which, in turn, invested the same amount in S-Tel just before it applied to the Department of Telecommunication for issuance of 2G licence, the petition said.

Subrata Roy has taken fight with ED as he was taking in times when corruption was above all, but forget this time anti corruption move started by Anna Hazare for Jan Lokpal and should get himself ready for this time to face music.

Kanimozhi wants to play pingpong game with CBI court to blame his closer corruption aide A Raja just to escape from Jail, hoping this calculated move by her after some underground give and take with congress,Raja and rest other.
If she will able to escape this way by putting blame on other than rest of all will use this , it is dangerous, Court should take this move seriously while deciding bail and her role in 2G scam.

Dinesh Singh Rawat Says,
This contempt notice to Sahara Group CEO Subrata Roy has shown clear-cut motive behind corporate houses to launch their media houses to use it as their arms to defend them from all three pillars of Indian democracy , i.e. Judiciary , Executive and Legislative.
The Neera Radia Tapes has already proved this nation's integrity threaten nexus among all four pillars including the press, which is considered as the fourth pillar of Indian democratic system, but now Sahara Group CEO Subrata Roy's action to use his media to threat the investigating officer,Rajeshwar Singh of enforcement directorate has gone further depicting the misuse of Fourth pillar( The Press)to defend his role in 2G scam case where ED found money transfer from Subrata Roy's Sahara Group to S-tel, the proxy telecom company used to siphon money from 2G spectrum allocation corruption done by Indian Politicians and corporate houses.
So, I of Views all four pillars including Media of Indian democracy should be come the purview of under Jan Lokpal Bill.
