542.The Supreme Court of India: Robbing the people of all real freedom?

The Supreme Court of India: Robbing the people of all real freedom?

The Supreme Court of India, on 31 January 2017, refused to stay the Jallikattu Law enacted by the Government of Tamil Nadu. Further, the court revealed that slogans were raised against the Supreme Court of India during the Marina Uprising. The court considered this as ’an intolerable act’.

Similarly, Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Mr. Paneerselvam disclosed that the protesters carried some placards criticizing him.  

Some other political leaders now say that the media did not report their visit to Marina during the uprising.

          Evidently, the media did not reveal the words used by the protesters against the Supreme Court during the Marina Uprising.

          Many other activities of the crowd also were not revealed as and when they happened.

          This shows that the Supreme Court and the Chief Minister were privileged to know news and views and not the people as a body.

          The court could have asked the media the reason for not revealing this to the people.

          It did not do so.

This shows that the present Chief Justice of India also is not ready to mark a new era of hope in the life of India.

          The Union Budget for 2017-2018 was presented to the Parliament on 1 February 2017.

          The money extracted from the people for imports – mentioned earlier in this work- does not, apparently, reflect in the receipts.

What happens to this money?

Or what happened to the money in the Provident Fund (PF)?

Does not the government drain India of her wealth?

Does the Chief Justice of India know this?

          The Government does not want the people to know this because this money goes directly into the hands of some manipulators.

          The Budget allotted Re. 48000 crore to the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS).

          This is an ongoing scheme.

          The coolies did not get job even for two days per week.  The present man told this to the government. Many more complementary things were pointed out to the government. At last, the government introduced the above scheme. Therefore, the name given to the above scheme is not an appropriate one.

The Budget allotted Re.27000 crore for housing. This also is an ongoing scheme.

Everyone wants to construct a house. The government could have taken a decision to give a definite amount directly to the below poverty line people as and when they construct new houses.

Now, about 34 per cent would reach the beneficiaries and the rest would be consumed by the middle men.

The government considered the suggestion given in this regard as a populist measure. In fact, it is a decision taken in bad faith. Such things would not happen if there is freedom  

          Further, the budget is virtually silent about the demonetization.

          Not much black money was unearthed from the Mumbai region after demonetization. There is no spurt in the foreign exchange reserves. Illegal transactions continue as before.

          Above all, the containers containing new currency notes were transmitted to some people without keeping any account. The Supreme Court of India does not want the competent authorities to reveal the nature of the illegal transactions.

          Now, the banks cannot show demonetized currency notes for the deposits because the notes were not exchanged through bank counters.

          Thus, the demonetization is fast becoming a method of further draining India of her wealth.

          In the context of demonetization and the imports, one would say that the Budget for 2017-2018 is the worst Budget.

Former Union Minister Mr. Subramonia Swamy, on 11 February 2017, described the delay taken by the Governor of Tamil Nadu to install a government as an unconstitutional one.

          This is not a question of Constitution because there is no freedom to the people to choose their own representatives.

          Therefore, all governments are illegitimate in nature.

          It may be recalled that former Union Minister Mr. T.T. Krishnamachari requested Mr. JRD Tata to remove the iron ore from Jamshedpur and rule India.

          Similarly, the chief ministers ask their friends and relatives to remove the public resources.

          What will the beneficiaries do with the unlimited money? They would spend a part among the political leaders, IAS officers, judges, friends and relatives. They would spend another part to control the public mind. They would spread the rest all over the world.

          The present struggle is nothing but a struggle for public money.

          Ms. Sasikala, a leader of the AIDMK party, said that the Chief Minister Mr. Paneerselvam was leaning towards the DMK party. The latter retorted that the former had secretly obtained certain licences   from the DMK Government.

          Further, Chief Minister Mr. Paneerselvam has not taken over the public resources after assuming power.

          Evidently, there are no differences between one political party and the other in the matter of draining the public resources.

The Governor of Tamil Nadu, on 13 February 2017, rejected the claim of Ms. Sasikala, a leader of the ruling AIADMK party, to form a government in the Tamil Nadu state. He cited the impending verdict of the Supreme Court of India in the disproportionate assets case.

All unexplained assets over a certain maximum are nothing but the proceeds from acts of corruption. Further, the case against Ms. Sasikala is a proved one and the Supreme Court of India cannot disprove it without invoking obscure sections.

The political leaders amass wealth only with the knowledge of the Supreme Court of India. However, the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) selectively attaches the assets of some people like Jagamohan Reddy. Therefore, the case is a highly complex one. The court has taken seven months to deliver the judgement because of the complex nature of the case. The Governor has placed a new constraint on the court.

The Members of Parliament and the Assembly can select their leader only once. If their leader dies or resigns, they will again get a chance to select another leader. But they don’t have the luxury to force or coerce their own leader and substitute him with another man. When such things happen as in the case of Mr. Paneerselvam, the President/Governor must ask the leader of the opposition party to explore the possibility of forming a government or dissolve the Parliament/ Assembly. The court will have its own view is a different matter.

There are reports that the Supreme Court of India appointed former Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG), Mr. Vinod Roy, as the president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

          It is a decision taken in very bad faith by the new Chief Justice of India,.

          Mr. Vinod Roy, as the CAG, projected the notional loss suffered by the exchequer due to the first come- first serve policy of the Dr.Manmohan Singh Government while allotting the 2G spectrum. At the same time, he suppressed the similar loss due to the similar policy pursued by the Mr.Vajpayee Government. He did it in bad faith and this fact was mentioned earlier in this work.

          Therefore, the decision of the court is an unconstitutional one. It is a reward for helping the manipulators to usurp the public resources. The order must be repealed forthwith.

          This happens because the Chief Justice of India robs the people of all real freedom.

This is letter No.542

   The facts from 27 January 2017 to 10 February 2017 are being submitted to His Excellency the President of India, Supreme Court of India, Chief Vigilance Commissioner, Indian Army and the Indian Air Force, and posted in the blog: www.howeverythinghappenedinindia.blogspot.com  on 11-2-2017.
