George Orwell was probably right irrespective of the country. Thought Crime and double speak heh! You know!

[Mishti]

Oh My God !! How did u compile all this data first of all ?!!
However it is not surprising at all, there is no dearth of sycophants,
read somewhere that Sharad Pawar suggested the name of Bandra Worli Sea Link as Rajiv Gandhi Sea Link, whereas it was supposed to be based on Shivaji's name i guess.
Pray the sycophants don't consider renaming India as Indi(r)a !!

tanne bera hai ye sab bahut bade deshbhagat the jinka kisi bhi VIDESHI se koi sambandh nahi raha . ar ya to shurat hai ibe to Sonia national trust ar Priyanka university aur Rahul Vidhwasharam jab toi tu kati naas tha dega. Deshbhakto ki is desh mein koi kadar nahi

Ye to shuruat hai abhi se rota hai kya aage aage dekh hota hai kya?

नई दिल्ली। नक्सलियों से निपटने को लेकर केंद्रीय गृह मंत्री पी चिदंबरम द्वारा दिए गए बयान की सीधी आलोचना करने से बचते हुए केंद्रीय वित्त मंत्री प्रणव मुखर्जी ने कहा है कि केंद्रीय मंत्रिमंडल के भीतर के किसी भी मतभेद को सार्वजनिक नहीं किया जाना चाहिए।
समाचार चैनल सीएनएन-आईबीएन से मुखर्जी ने कहा, 'मेरे विशिष्ट सहयोगी चिदंबरम ने क्या कहा, इस बारे मैं कोई टिप्पणी करना नहीं चाहता।' मुखर्जी ने कहा, 'मैं कह रहा हूं कि उन्होंने किस संदर्भ में क्या कहा, इस बारे में वह मुझसे बेहतर बताने की स्थिति में है। इन चीजों के बारे में हम सार्वजनिक चर्चा नहीं करते, इन चीजों के बारे सार्वजनिक चर्चा भी नहीं की जानी चाहिए..मैं वैसा व्यक्ति नहीं हूं कि कैबिनेट में लिए गए फैसले से अलग विचार होने पर अपने विचार को सार्वजनिक कर दूं।'
'डेविल्स एडवोकेट' कार्यक्रम के लिए करण थापर को दिए साक्षात्कार में मुखर्जी ने नक्सलियों के खिलाफ कार्रवाई के मुद्दे पर कैबिनेट में मतभेद के बारे में टिप्पणी करने से इनकार कर दिया। पिछले दिनों एक साक्षात्कार में चिदंबरम ने कहा था कि उन्हे नक्सलियों से निपटने में 'सीमित अधिकार' प्राप्त है। उन्होंने व्यापक अधिकार के लिए सरकारी पैनल के पास जाने की बात कही थी।
मुखर्जी ने कहा, 'नहीं, ये ऐसे मुद्दे है जिसपर हम कैबिनेट में चर्चा करेगे, सार्वजनिक बहस नहीं हो सकती, क्योंकि मामले की सच्चाई यह है कि गृह मंत्रालय के प्रस्ताव को कैबिनेट ने स्वीकार किया है, उचित कदम पहले ही उठाए जा चुके है, लेकिन किस संदर्भ में गृह मंत्री का ऐसा मानना है, वे ही इसकी व्यख्या करने के लिए उपयुक्त व्यक्ति है।'
जब उनसे पूछा गया कि नक्सलियों से निपटने के लिए क्या सरकार गृह मंत्रालय को व्यापक अधिकार देगी तो उन्होंने कहा, ''मैं नहीं जानता, जब तक कि हम मंत्रालय से नहीं सुन लेते। विस्तृत अधिकार के तत्व क्या है, उसकी सामग्री क्या है, जब इस बारे में चर्चा होगी तभी हम फैसला लेंगे।' उन्होंने कहा कि प्रत्येक कैबिनेट मंत्री का अपना विचार होना सामान्य है।
उन्होंने कहा, 'इसमें कोई असामान्य बात नहीं है। किसी भी व्यावसायिक संस्था की तरह, फैसला लेने की प्रक्रिया में विभिन्न लोगों से विभिन्न जानकारियां हासिल होती हैं, लेकिन जब एक बार फैसला ले लिया जाता है तो सभी उस फैसले का पालन करते है।'

i can understand the unrest; but i expect that you would agree on one point, that while naming a institute, policy or scheme there are several things which the top bosses have to keep in mind; for example one is : please the boss !!!.

and also you can not deny the fact that all the schemes, institutions and policies have been devised, crafted and made for the welfare of poor and common man. so, as responsible citizens of this country, we should focus on the trasparecy and honsety in the implementation, working and resultant functional style of all the enlisted institutes, schemes, policies and not the nomanclature by which they are known.

By the way, all the three people, whose name you have questioned here, had selflessly sacrifised their lives for the welfare of entire country and i am sure most of readers/ us have not spared even 5 minutes to help even a single needy person.

So, at this point.. i can say only one thing....

"iss tarah kii baaton parr THREAD banana... Ye Achchiii Baat nahi hai !!! "...( Vajpayee Ji Style )

it's ok that what's in name after all need to work properly of all these institute, policies, awards, etc but
is it right naming all new ventures only associated with these three names?
or you want to say that only these three persons have done better for the society or common or poor and rest have not done any things.Our other freedom fighter, social activist have not done anythings.
It's shocking others rests execpt few are being neglected by mostly ruled congress party since 1947.
Politicians only work remains if want stay in politics to please High Command, Congress cheif sonia , Rahul, Priyanka.

[delhione]

It appears that people creating "cacophony" here are not commoners but a class of "DRAWINGROOM POLITICIANS"..... thats why they are indulging in to topics of so little and innocuous importance.

The brainchild of nomenclature is an administrative discretion and we should respect that; and should question it only in the situations where it is only a cosmetic change and not beneficial to grassroot.

I request and expect that, unless somebody has any adverse herartfelt, objectionale and seen... first hand experince over any of the named institutes, schemes, policies, rules, orders or bye laws should keep reservation on commenting over the "Nomenclature".

Bharat Ka naam badal ke Gandisthan hee rakh doo nay!!!!! Naam toh nu dare hain janu gandhiya ne chod ke aur koi es mulk mein hooya e kona!!!!

[nitindev]

ये बात तो सही है की, नाम में क्या रखा है,,, पर कभी कभी इस प्रकार का प्रचार जनता को गुमराह करता है. और ये नामकरण, श्रधांजलि के लिए नहीं, प्रचार के लिए हैं...
दूसरी बात, ये कतई भी बेफाल्तू का सूत्र नहीं है. ऐसे और बहुत सूत्र मिलेंगे जाटलैंड पर जो एकदम फालतू हैं... इस प्रकार से सूत्र व् चर्चा से विचारों का आदान प्रदान होता है और जनता को समझने में सहयोग मिलता है की क्या ये प्रचार गुमराह करने के लिए तो नहीं..

[rkumar]

Samar Bhai, Sari duniya ke naam gina diye aur Haryana ki sabse badi project ko bhool gaye...hahahha...

Rajiv Ghandhi Education City, Sonipat, HARYANA..

then there are quite a few of other major medical institutions like PGI chandigarh and JPMER, Pondicherry which are also after the name of Nehru-Gandhi family. There are countless conference halls also I have seen. There is a saying in english;

" Evil is nothing but the good carried out in excess.".

Kis kiska naam ginwayen, Sabhi ne humko loota hai... Hope you recollect these lines of a hindi song. Har saakh pe ullu baithe hain...

1. Mayawati is busy in Kansi Ram mamorials and her own statues
2. Ch. O.P. Chautala was busy in Devi Lal Parks
3. Ajit Singh is naming anything and everything after Charan Singh

However, no one can beat congress when it comes to naming. No where in world one will find so may things named after one family.
