BELIEVE IT OR NOT……THESE ARE TRUE IN INCREDIBLE INDIA

1) Public Sector Bank (P&SB) needs to recruit over 3.5 lakh executives in the next five years = this is an opportunity.

2) Out of five million security guards, a security agency G4S employs over 1, 31,000 guards in the country where one million = 10 lakhs, is this a drop in the ocean & any opportunity cost involved here for us?

3) The number of women employees out of 30 lakh Central government is at least 20 per cent = confirms our positive bent of mind toward Liberation of all things natural.

4) The second face revival of unique number of Employees' Provident Fund will cost Rs. 51 crores = there may be a few more SCAMS with or without Judges involved here also… but these things happen in our country- c’mon…they are passé!

5) The domestic BPO industry is employing 4.67 lakh people = so the MAD HOUSE Culture keeps on beating!

6) In revision of pay scale for government employees, the minimum salary at the bottom of the pyramid would be over 3 times as high as stipulated minimum wages of his counterpart employed in private sector anywhere in India (together these account for 9% or so of wage earners in INDIA) = and imagine how many tens of times more than the balance 91% Indian wage-earners in India’s unorganized sector!

7) The Sixth Pay Commission's report for Central government employees has introduced a new term, CCL, or child-care leave, as a result a woman can avail 730 days or two years of CCL for two children apart from 360 days of maternity leave or 180 days, 19 gazetted holidays, and 58 days of casual, privilege and medical leave. Besides that, they can even avail of two years of discretionary study leave = this is a small step toward that GIANT stride of legalizing CASUAL LABOR in India’s government payrolls, come circa 2010. And also would now ensure our children are not under-nourished and die premature deaths due to negligence.
If this is not humanity’s strongest pillar for democracy- what else can be?
