206. The Top Seven Offenders of the Nation


206

DOUBLE STANDARD


     The last mail was submitted to Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, His Excellency the President of India, on 26 July 2012. The same mail was sent to the Supreme Court of India, Indian Army and Indian Air Force.   Later, it was posted in the blog www: howeverythinghappenedinindia.blogspot.com and a link was given to www.thattan.com

      Mrs. Kiran Bedi –a member of Team Anna – on 26 July 2012, said that the Union Government had instructed the media to underplay their agitation.
      The media has conducted discussions worth Re.10,000 crore on Team Anna and Yoga guru Baba Ramdev in the last two months alone. Yet, Mrs. Kiran Bedi is not contented with it. The fact that her views come to the notice of the people shows that she is as dear to the recipients of the Provident Fund (PF) money as Baba Ramdev.
      In this connection, it must be noted that none in India – other than this writer- has uttered any word regarding the black money associated with the PF money.

     Upholding a decision of the Government of Jharkhand state to cancel some mining licenses, a Bench of the Supreme Court of India comprising Justices R.M. Lodha and H.L. Gohhale, on 27 July 2012, declared that minerals were national assets. The judges quoted Article 39 (b) of the Constitution of India for this.
      Though the judges justified the cancellation of a few mining licenses, they chose not to disturb the licenses in the hand of many others.
     It is pertinent to recall that, on 7 May 2010, a three judge Bench of the Supreme Court of India headed by Chief Justice K.G. Balakrishnan declared –as mentioned in Chapter 139- that all natural resources must be exclusively handled by the Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs). Based on the judgment, the minerals and the spectrum should have come under the PSUs. However, the judgment was not implemented.
       Evidently, the Supreme Court of India is not implementing its own judgments when they affect the rulers of India.
     Further, even when other illegalities were pointed out, the Supreme Court connived at them. Thus, the Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) was given to a charge - sheeted company in violation of all norms.
      The present judgment must be viewed in the proper perspective.
     The United Front Government headed by Mr. H.D. Deve Gowda delegated the power to grant mining licenses to the State Governments. This was a momentous decision because minerals went in the hands of the pressure groups in various States thereby affecting the interests of the pressure group that rules India. One or two States misused this power as in Orissa, and the iron ores went in the hands of some foreign players.
      The real rulers retaliated by bringing down Mr. H.D. Deve Gowda within 11 months.
      Now, the recipients of the PF money want the Supreme Court of India to cancel the licenses of the small players citing various illegalities. In fact, some are in jail.
        The rulers say that the mining licenses in their hands are legal, and all the rest are illegal. In this way, they  proclaim to the world that rule of law prevails in India.
        Now, what the Supreme Court of India says is law. Does not the Supreme Court misuse its power? In which way the public property is different from the minerals? Is it not a double standard?

      The New Indian Express, on 29 July 2012, through Mr. Arun Nehru, said that India had to brace for a difficult 2012-2013.
     Through a Mr. George the paper said that challenges of India had assumed critical proportions.
      Through another writer the paper said that no grand idea was visible.
     The above is the inference of the paper to the last mail sent to the President of India.
     What does the paper mean by critical proportions? Does the paper think that the black money associated with the PF money would be recovered? Does it fear the next Chief Justice of India?

      BPN live blog, on 29 July 2012, said that a number of ministers had to go to jail because of the strict anti -corruption laws.
      The same blog said that the schemes for the poor people, if implemented, could change their destiny. But it deplored that those schemes never reached them because of corruption in the system.
     Thus, even the blogs are being detailed to say that the nation was not affected by the recipients of the PF money.

     The Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) detected black money to the tune of Re. 550 crore in France. The newspapers reported this on 29 July 2012. The CBI could recover Re. 5 lakh crore to Re.10 lakh crore from the recipients of the PF money.

        The ICICI Bank Ltd recorded 36 per cent profit - $327 million - for the April – June quarter. This bank had received a huge amount of the PF money. Apparently, it used a part of this money to trade in gold.
       Surely, an enquiry would show that the ICICI Bank suppresses it real income. The Government would remain silent until this bank siphons off the profit to other countries.

      An officer of the Department of Telecommunications- a Mr. Srivasta – submitted before the court hearing the 2G case that former Minister Mr. Raja decided the cut off date. This shows that Mr. Raja did not collaborate with the officers, and did his duty.

         The Governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Mr. Subba Rao, on 31 July 2012, said that several other factors played a significant role in the current economic slow down. Does he not mean the impact of the black money associated with the PF money? If so, did he not reinvest the amount? What happened to the PF money?

         According to the 68th National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO), 10 percent of the rural people in India spend Re.16.78 per day, and half of the rural population lives on Re.33. One must compare this with the black money associated with the PF money.

          32 passengers - of the Chennai bound Tamil Nadu Express - were charred to death on 30 July 2012 at Nellore when flames engulfed a coach.
       The present writer had requested the Government to remove the iron rods from the windows. Now, there exist two sliding windows – a glass window and an iron window. The iron rods are redundant. For the safety of children and others, the iron rods could be substituted by emergency exit windows.
        But the Government has no money. It has not invested anything on the railways in the last twenty years. No bullet trains. Very little railway lines have been built. Practically there is no doubling of railway lines. The shock absorbers in the coaches are miserable and are more than twenty years old. If the Government hands over Re.3 lakh crore to the private parties, how will it get money for investments? The people cannot escape even from the burning coaches!

       The Union Government, on 2 August 2012, approved certain changes in the land transfer policy for Government- owned land to speed up public –private partnership projects (PPPP). The recipients of the PF money want the PPPP because they want to convert their black money into white money. All the PPPP are out and out unconstitutional because of the black money factor associated with them.

        India, on 2 August 2012, allowed the Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) from the firms and the individuals from Pakistan. India does this more to help the recipients of the PF money rather than to help Pakistan.

        The Union Cabinet, on 3 August 2012, set Re.14,000 crore as the reserve price of the 5 mega hertz pan India spectrum.
      In this connection, it must be pointed out that the recipients of the PF money are ready to give Re.1,40,000 crore to the Government for it. The only condition is that the black money in their hands should not be recovered.
     The Supreme Court of India must see that the laws laid by it are not to enable the holders of black money to corner the spectrum and the other public assets. It must discard its unconstitutional ways and restore constitutionalism in India.

      A court in Delhi, on 4 August 2012, granted bail to former Union Minister Dr. Anbumani Ramadoss. Consistent with the last letter, the court did not send him to jail. The Supreme Court must note that the Constitution of India does not permit the prosecution of a Union Minister without the prosecution of the Prime Minister.

      Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), on 5 August 2012, claimed that it unearthed illegal – called hawala - transactions of Mr. A. Raja.
       All the ministers under Prime Minister Manmohan Singh would get not less than Re.10000 crore each through illegal transactions one day or other for giving the PF money to the private parties. Mr.Raja cannot be an exception. However, if any Union Minister commits any illegality, the Prime Minister of India must be the first accused.

     On 6 August 2012, Venezuela revealed its intension to nationalize foreign oil exploration companies.

     Prime Minister of India Mr. Manmohan Singh, on 8 August 2012, said that he was prepared to discuss issues. He knows that this work will not come to the notice of the people. The moment this comes out, he would quit office.

     The RBI, on 6 August 2012, allowed the banks to lend money for the upcoming auction for the spectrum. The BJP Government had given public money to the private parties to buy the PSUs. The present Government gives public money to them to account for the black money. It is patently unconstitutional. The Governor of the RBI and the Chief Justice of India are liable for prosecution.

       The trade imbalance of India with China widened to $27 billion in 2011. India pledges its sovereignty to China because a few individuals got loan or other benefits from China.

       The profit of the public sector State Bank of India (SBI) doubled to Re.3752 crore in the April-June quarter.
      The SBI had received a part of the PF money. The Supreme Court alone knows the whereabouts of this money.
       Further, many customers genuinely suspect that the banks in general and some private banks in particular overcharge interests on jewel loans and others. If the RBI does not allow this, it could direct all financial institutions to send a message every month on the interest accrued to every loan account.

        The DLF company, on 13 August 2012, disclosed its decision to sell its 17 acre plot in Mumbai for Re.2700 crore, almost four times the amount the company paid to the public sector National Textile Corporation (NTC) of India in 2005. The real price will be higher than the book value.
           The DLF had purchased the above land using public money. One person sells the property, and another person buys the property. This is the law laid down by the Supreme Court of India. This is the reason why it refuses to enforce freedom of expression.

       There are reports that the Tamilnad Mercantile Bank would sell 5 per cent of its shares through an Initial Public Offering (IPO) very soon.
     The above bank had been started mainly through the contribution from the people of a particular community in Tamil Nadu. Though they got shares, they were not transacted. A clever man noticed this and secretly bought the shares. After that he claimed the ownership of the bank. Mr. Pon Radhakrishnan and Mr. L.K. Advani of the BJP restored the shares after giving a hefty amount to him.
        It is clear, that the shares sold to the public must always remain with the public. Even 1 per cent of the shares shall not go into the hand of the enemies, competitors, rivals or black money holders.

      Former Governor RBI Mr.Y.V. Reddy is to be appointed as the head of the 14th Finance Commission.
      Anyone going through this would tell that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, President of India Pranab Mukherjee, Union Minister P. Chithambaram, former Chief Justice of India K.G. Balakrishnan, former President of India Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, former Governor of the RBI Mr.Y.K. Reddy and present Chief Justice of India S.H. Kapadia are the top seven offenders of the nation. They secretly gave Re.3 lakh crore in the PF to the private parties for generating black money.
     Former President Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil and former Chief Justice K.G. Balakrishnan are included because neither did they prevent the occurrence of the crime nor did they grant freedom to Indians.
     The present Chief Justice of India S.H. Kapadia is included because he covered up the crime by sending to jail a former Union Minister and many other small offenders. This double standard of the Chief Justice is a most despicable one.
      All but Y.K. Reddy are occupying top positions. If this work fails, he will get the appointment, and tomorrow the Armed Forces might be forced to give 21-gun salute to him.

       Vice President of India Mr. Hamid Ansari was sworn in as the Vice President of India again. He did not utter even a word for the freedom of Indians in the last five years. He is a man of practical wisdom.

        The facts from 26 July 2012 to 13 August 2012 are being submitted to Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, His Excellency the President of India, on 14 August 2012.
The same letter is being sent to the Chief Justice of India, and the Chiefs of the Indian Army and Indian Air Force.
