Now, at least 90 people, mostly civilians, have been massacred- bomb blast in Kabul.Where the blast occurred is one of the most secured places. It is not immediately clear who is behind the attack Taliban have denied any role, saying they don’t kill civilians.

Diplomatic challenge before Mr. Ghani is to cut of the Taliban’s supplies from abroad. It is an open secret that Pakistan is supporting the insurgency. Unless the Taliban are cut of from their external backers Security challenge is that the Afghan army, after years of relentless war, is demoralised. Afghanistan has a 170,000-strong army- challenges from different militant groups. No plan to stabilise Afghanistan.



This time for Africa

recent achievements and future prospects of the Indian economy. Africa’s growing interest in connecting more extensively with India Inc. India Inc. is a common term used by the Indian media to refer to the formal (comprising

government and corporate) sector of the nation. AfDB president Akinwumi Adesina called India “a developing beacon for the rest of the world”,

adding that the time was right for India and Africa to forge “winning partnerships”. Past two years, the President, the Vice President and the Prime Minister have visited 16 African

areas such as 1)-Health care, 2)-Agriculture and 3)-Blue economy. Unless results become visible in the short term, questions may arise about the credibility of their

In good faith?

Intro:- Three Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers, including former coal secretary H.C.Gupta, who dealt with allocation of coal mines have been sentenced to a two-year term.

The conviction is under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for criminal conspiracy and cheating and under the Prevention of Corruption Act (PCA), 1988.

The Supreme Court had cancelled the allocation of 214 coal blocks Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) had termed the coal allocations inefficient, not corrupt. A parliamentary committee report on Coal and Steel had termed the allocations unauthorised. Systemic failures that lead to serious consequences would be regarded as maladministration. The First Administrative Reforms Commission, chaired by Morarji Desai had recommended, as

early as 1966, that the proposed Lokpal investigate complaints of two distinct kinds: 1)-Consequences of maladministration and 2)-Favouritism Good public administration does not just happen. Essential element involves recognising the distinction between honest mistakes,

maladministration and corruption, which is a feature in countries like the U.K. and Australia.
