CM-
Q-what is nsso, what does it do?
A-Sir, nsso is national sample
survey office under mospi. It performs variety of statistical surveys like ASI
for assessing contribution of manufacturing sector, AS for estimates of food
production, price surveys like cpi, wpi
and rpc. also annual surveys for measuring variety of s-e indicators like
poverty , unemployment, unemployment.
Q-Have u watched the advt.?
A-Yes sir, it is by mr. ALOKNATH.
Q-What does it say?
A-Sir, it asks public to
cooperate when survey personnel visit for collecting information on S-E
indicators.
Q-What is Asst.S.O.?
A-Sir, assistant superintending Officer.
Q-You have hobby of watching
documentaries? which is the last 1 u watched?
A-Sir I have watched SRILANKA’S
KILLING FIELDS- WARCRIMES UNPUNISHED.
Q-What is it about?
A-Sir it is about gross HR
violation and sexual abuse by SL army and killing unarmed tamilians.
Q-India has voted against SL in
UN, while china and pak have voted in favour of SL, also SL is our close
neighbour .isn’t it against our national
interest?
A-Sir, india has voted against
after having documentary proof and investigation by UNHRC and LLRC of sl which
showed such violations. china and pak have voted as per their foreign policy
and economic concerns. India,s FP has been always guided by HR protection and
adhering for peaceful solutions under UN.
Q-Was there any other reason?
A-Sir, to some extent there was pressure by political parties from
tamil nadu who raised concerns on HR VIOLATIONS and killing of unarmed tamilian
people but mainly it was our FP guiding us.
Q-Which UN agency proposed the
resolution/
A-Sir, it was proposed by UNHRC ,
united nations human rights commission.
Q-Tell me 1 point which india
proposed in it?
A-Sir, india added that it should
be SL which should be entrusted with responsibility to implement rec. Of
LLRC. And no external intervention should be there.
Q-Anurag ,UPSC and ARC
are of opinion to recruit civil servants after 10+2 like on patterns of
NDA, wher we will train them for say 3 or 5 yrs and then appoint them? What is
ur opinion?
A-Sir, I think it is good
initiative and I support it but prior to its introduction adequate time say 2-3 yrs should be given
prior to its intro. Because aspirants wait for their attempts so proper roadmap
should be there for its introduction .secondly there shd be provision for
lateral entry in mid-level posts like nandan nilekani.
Q-Won’t it lead to
regimentalisation of services as they will be studying only adm. And will become narrow in outlook?
A-Sir, in their training they
will be studying variety of disciplines like pub adm, mgmt., law, psychology,
statistics and indian society and culture so their horizon of thoughts will
widen .secondly as part of their field attachment in districts they will have
to coordinate diff .line depts.. so their idiosyncracies will be rubbed off.
Q-Ok ,tell me 2 positives and 2
drawbacks of this change?
A-Sir, on +ve it will lead to
induction of better candidates as their personalities will be judged in
thorough way and non-serious candidates
can be removed by directors of academy in the
process, secondly it will lead to specialization of civil servants. Drawbacks will be that aspirants from
rural areas like me, will be at loss as
they only think of career options only after graduation so proper attention should be paid to this aspect.
secondly if any candidate is declared as non-serious in mid of training , he
should be allowed to complete his tenure and at the end he shd be given a
degree , because he had not taken any professional course like medical or
engineering and his 2 crucials yrs would be wasted in such process.
Q-Let it , if you are PM and you have to take decision on this
proposal. What will u do?
A-Sir, I will consult personnel
ministry and UPSC, then decide
accordingly.
Q-You have studied from CSJMU?
WHAT is it?
A-Sir, it is chatrapati
shahuji maharaj university.
Q-Who was he?
A-Sir, he was ruler of Kolhapur
in maharastra and he had done lot for educational development of marginalized
sections and backward castes .

recognized his contribution to educational field and renamed KANPUR UNIVERSITY
as such.

Q-Anurag , you said that it was
domestic compulsion which forced us to vote against SL?
A-No sir, I said that it was 1 of
the secondary reason, primary was our concerns for HR violation.
Q-Is there any relation between
CSJM and SHIVAJI?
A-Sir, though I have read about them in history but
I don’t know about their relation except
that shivaji was in KONKAN area
and CSJM in Kolhapur which falls
in MARATHWADA.
Q-you must be knowing that we
have categorization of services like grp A,B…? what IS ur service about.

colleagues and juniors to participate in
extra-curricular activities and prepare them for competitions. Also when I lead the school team then coordinated with team for best performance.
Q-Do you faced any problems in it?
A-Sir, sometimes we had hard
times to convince the parents of the participants to allow their wards to participate as they
felt that it may affect their academics , also motivating juniors for competitions
was hard but we convinced them.
Q-What type of competitions were
held?
A-Sir, debate, extempore, quiz
and sports activities.
Q-Any more?
A-Sir, story- telling , recitation, drawing.
Q-At a scale of 10, how you rate
ur performance of captain?
A-Sir, the fact that the yr I was
house captain , it was elected as cock house ie. Winner house speaks about my
performance.
Q-Do you know about OCUPPY
WALLSTREET MOVEMENT? Tell.
A-Sir, it was movement started
from zukotti park in NY,it was against 1% rich and powerful and 99%
public and about increasing
inequality in US and it was against bankers, and crony capitalist
policies of govt. in which large bailout packages were given to banks from
tax-payers money and banks were deciding policies of govt. it also spread to
European nations as a protest.
Q-So U say it was movement not
against capitalism but crony-
capitalism?
A-Yes sir, it was against those
policies in which states collude with capitalists and banks and frame policies
conducive to them while appearing that it is for benefit of general public.
Q-You have hobby of reading
newspaper. how is it?
A-Sir, I like to read NP as they
give knowledge and it is integral to me. Secondly it also helps me during
preparation of civil services. So hobby converges into exams preparation.

M.N.SRINIVAS in his case study of mysore. it is process of emulation in fooding, dressing, language,
behaviour of higher castes ,done by castes

Q-Is this model relevant today. what are
alternative models?
A-Sir, presently there are mainly
2 models. the dalit consciousness and assertion and rise of dalit literature,
medicine, dalit culture and dalit arts
and rise of institutes like CDS, Now people are proud to assert that they are
dalit and realized their political power. In second model we see rise of demand
of claiming backward which though seems contradictory, but it is realization of
fact that education is now imp. Factor of mobility and by reservation they can
get more avenues of education.
Q-You have background in
economics and pol. Sc.? then why
sociology?
A-Sir, in sociology we have to study various thoughts
like Marxism, parsons who ardently
supported capitalism, research methods and statistical methods, study of
various communities and religion enables us to respect diff. viewpoints. In
paper on Indian society, we study about
various problems like child labour, informal sector and women related issues.
so it help us to u/s Indian society better as an administrator.
Q-Anurag you belong to lucknow,
as a CM what will be your priorities?
A-As a CM my top priorities would
be- 1st- law n order because
without it no development policies and stability can work.2nd
education because quantity is increasing but quality is deteriorating and
employability is poor , so I would focus on iti’s and polytechnic for
vocational education. 3rd my focus will be on power because without
it no industry would investment, also education n agri. Would be affected. 4th
I will emphasis on office mgmt as there is tendency in UP that files even 1yr
are missing and records are destroyed.

revenue records in UP?

computerized under BHULEKH mission CLR scheme of goi. now we can access all
land records on computer by entering
khasra or name of owner.

union elections? Do you support recent decision?

elections should not be on party
