Dear readers
The
second avataar of My Page will not be emailed in this format after this issue. I
take this opportunity to thank all my readers and well wishers who have
encouraged me to keep this going. As most of my articles/comments are being
mailed/posted at Warrier’s Blog http://mgwarrier.blogspot.in/ as and when
published, discontinuance of My Page will be of
little consequence. Many of you have access to VITALINFO also where links to my
articles/comments appear almost daily. VITALINFO can be accessed at http://mangeshtarambale.blogspot.in/
Those esteemed readers who have difficulty
in accessing these blogs can contact me mgwarrier@rediffmail.com

Towards
the Total Review
This refers to ET
editorial “A New Commission for New States” (August 5). This is a timely
suggestion. Boundaries of states within the country, the method of sharing
revenue and resources among Centre and states, the basic issue of continuance
of the present division of responsibilities between Centre and states and
several other relationship issues of governance affecting the people are due
for a review. These issues should be revisited, as several ingredients of
governance have changed since the time of independence. There are voices of
dissent from several quarters. Legislatures are being hijacked by interests
other than conduct of democratic process of debates and coming to conclusion on
vital issues. If central government is not able to cause a review of the whole
system, statesmen interested in the nation’s integrity and uniform economic and
social development should come together and come forward with suggestions for
change after due deliberations. Perhaps, this paper could take the lead in
opening the debate.
