Yesterday, the Hon’ble PM while
interacting with the 167 IRS Probationers exhorted them to keep a sense of
trust for the people of India in course of their work. The officer must feel
that each and every citizen of this country is part of his family. If this
spirit prevails, then the officers will be able to work with vigour and
enthusiasm and even the question of exhaustion will not arise. He also expected
from the civil servants a sensitive and humane approach.
The young batch of IRS
Officers is fortunate to have interactions with the Hon’ble PM, who shares his
views to inspire and guide to prove best civil servants to serve the people.
Alas, it appears that there
was no one to guide the earlier batches of IRS officers as most of them are
engrossed in their motivated activities. There is no sense, no human touch, no
feelings, forget about remorse…
The employee who works under you never has felt
that he is being treated like family. The incidence of ST-III and the untimely
death of Supdt. Shri Phadke show the lack of actions leading to brewing of resentment
amongst the staff. Days are not far ahead if the attitude / approach do not change then the staff will also react like...

CESA-Mumbai is
posting an article about the gratefulness of a penguin who was rescued from
certain death, which is eye-catching and touching…
Will our own administrations
learn anything from advice of our Hon’ble PM… or the below mentioned article…

Penguin swims 5,000 miles
every year for reunion with the man who saved its life

Today's
most heartwarming story is brought to you from a beach in Brazil.
It's
the story of a South American Magellanic penguin who swims 5,000 miles each year
to be reunited with the man who saved his life.
Retired
bricklayer and part time fisherman Joao Pereira de Souza, 71, who lives in an
island village just outside Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, found the tiny penguin,
covered in oil and close to death, lying on rocks on his local beach in 2011.
Joao
cleaned the oil off the penguin's feathers and fed him a daily diet of fish
to build his strength. He named him Dindim.
After
a week, he tried to release the penguin back into the sea. But, the bird
wouldn't leave. 'He stayed with me for 11 months and then, just after he
changed his coat with new feathers, he disappeared,' Joao recalls.
And,
just a few months later, Dindim was back. He spotted the fisherman on the
beach one day and followed him home.
For
the past five years, Dindim has spent eight months of the year with Joao and
is believed to spend the rest of the time breeding off the coast of Argentina
and Chile.
It's
thought he swims up to 5,000 miles each year to be reunited with the man who
saved his life.
'I
love the penguin like it's my own child and I believe the penguin loves me,'
Joao told Globo TV. 'No one else is allowed to touch him. He pecks them if
they do. He lays on my lap, lets me give him showers, allows me to feed him
sardines and to pick him up.
'Everyone
said he wouldn't return but he has been coming back to visit me for the past
four years. He arrives in June and leaves to go home in February and every
year he becomes more affectionate as he appears even happier to see me.'
Biologist
Professor Krajewski, who interviewed the fisherman for Globo TV, told The
Independent: 'I have never seen anything like this before. I think the
penguin believes Joao is part of his family and probably a penguin as well.
'When
he sees him he wags his tail like a dog and honks with delight.
And,
just like that, the world seems a kinder place again.
