govt officials must be taught the language of friendship, guiding body and being humble

To all concerned with a request that govt officials must be taught the language of friendship, guiding body and being humble and not send out programme circulars in a hurting notice form with warning that if you do not cooperate then under so many sections they can punish innocent citizens.

Dear Sir,
Namaskar

Request: Our hearty Invitation to our 224th regular meeting :


For Last 10 years I have been running above  Senior Citizens organization known as Varishtha Nagrik Seva Sanstha .We have had picnics, parties, Camps,Cultural programmes, talks on issues related to old age ( like importance of making a will , on health, spiritualism, etc.. We had several speakers from Brahmakumari, Osho, Ramakrishna Mission, Jain Saints, Chinmayanand Mission, Art of Living, Hospitals, Santacruz East Yoga Institute, Civic bodies, Police office etc.

We offer items needed by patients like fowler bed( patients bed) , wheelchairs, tripods, crèches, walkers  etc.etc.. which we offer to needy without any rent.

Sir,
Residents of our area has received a notice No. Ch.E./24387/SWM dt 02/02/2013
regarding house to house Garbage collection.

Sir for any good scheme/ programme to succeed there are two most important things:
1. Brain storming with citizens/ affected masses or their representatives.
2. Pre launch awareness meet. Ideally BMC on its own must call a meeting at their cost, at their premises over a cup of tea and educate the masses about need for this programme, what benefits are expected out of such programme,what is expected of citizens and why?
I strongly feel this is very autocratic/ dictatorial to directly issue notices to citizens and punishment if they fail to comply ( as if we citizens are your ( GOVT bureaucrats) slaves).

Sir,
In the interest reasoned above I request you to come with necessary presentation/ flyers and speakers on this House to House Garbage collection programme and other current civic issues.
Next meeting of my senior citizens group named above will be held @ 4.30 pm on 15th Feb. 2013 at above address. Meeting will be over by 6pm.
Hope  you and your team will join us on this day and throw light on why and how citizens can participate in civic programmes.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Sincerely yours,

Alok Tholiya
