VIP culture full out - do something

Attached video of President of India as he comes out of the Puri temple. I can count a total of 24 cars. May be you all can do a better job!!

Can and Will LocalCircles escalate this issue. Wrong is wrong doesnt matter who does it.

Why does a president need to travel in 24 cars and use tax payers hard earned money like this. We as a country are moving backwards. more

Where do you still experience VIP culture?

Early last year, our circle ask got accepted when the Govt announced that red beacons should be removed from most VIP Cars. However, since then we have seen members outlining VIP issues from time to time in different national and local circles.With this post, one more time we want to seek all your inputs on where all do you still find VIP culture in India.Please be as specific as possible and include as much detail as possible.We will then have a separate discussion on solutions and if it turns out a few changes in rules can help minimise VIP culture in key areas, we will go to the senior most levels in the Government requesting the same.We look forward to your inputs!

Wondering aloud - does our country really need figureheads like this. Wish we had a leaner governance structure. more

It has been observed that this type taking 24 Cars is too much. I have seen Dr Manmohan Singh's tour to Mumbai, there were 49 Vehicles. These are expenses on Tax Payers Account. Now Compare with Dignitaries of many Countries. Many of them are using very minimal so called Securities. We should also reduce this and this is High Time. more

Prima facie, the fleet looks much more than required, we are not aware how much security is Authorised to the President and the requirement of vehicles. Thus, any conclusion on our part is incorrect. If any one is serious about the issue, it should be pursued through RTI and PIL. more
