Central government’s review petition on SIT

The central government has filed a  review petition to withdraw the SIT constituted by supreme court. The governments has appealed to the supreme court to withdraw the SIT on the below grounds.

Economic policy

“It impinges upon the well settled principle that courts do not interfere with the economic policy which is the domain of the Executive and that it is not the function of the court to sit in judgement over matters of economic policy, which must necessarily be left to the expert bodies”. The government has contented that it’s the economic policies of the executives and the court cannot review matter regarding the policies. Any rational mind would understand that executive have the worst of economic policies. What is their policy to allow the black money to flow out of the country and do nothing about it. Is this the policy of the government and the executives?

Separation of power

The government feels that judiciary has gone beyond its powers and there by infringing the powers of the executives, That is SIT take away the power if Enforcement directorate and Intelligence bureau and gives it to SIT . The separation of powers is well established principle and it has to be respected is the contention of the government.

The governments contentions are very clear that they will act slowly and do nothing about corruption and also the black money issue.

Maran will soon join Tihar mates

image  Dayanidhi Maran was the telecom minister in the UPA – 1 and has now been under the scanner for alleged corruption and misuse of his position. The opposition parties have stepped up the demand for Maran’s resignation. A political party  went on to say that it high time that PM should drop him from his cabinet. The pressure has mounted badly after the CBI’s report to supreme court on his involvement in 2G scam. DMK has let him down and will not extend any support to Maran and congress will be looking to clean its name from the 2G scam so the arrest of Maran is eminent.

Allegations:

1. Threatening AIrcel founder to sell the company to Maxis communication, In turn maxis has invested 700 cr in sun direct owned by Maran’s brother.

2. Setting up of a private exchange for the benefit of Sun network and causing a loss of revenue to BSNL.

Selective and targeting non congress governments

image In Karnataka the governor has been very active and never misses a chance to lash out at the BJP government. similarly Rahul targets selectively at UP government. In no case one would defend the corruption at Karnataka or atrocities of UP government but the point that is made here is why selective targeting them, as if all the other state does have any corruption or any atrocities have not been committed. Rahul has never made or expressed his views on lokpal nor did he make any trip to Jaitapur where the lands are forcefully acquired by congress government and there is also concern over safety. will Rahul’s gimmicks work? certainly no, his plan for Bihar was a big failure. In next parliament election it’s certain that congress would face a major defeat even if Manmohan singh is the prime ministerial candidate. 

Strong action will be taken..

The army chief has said that strong action will be taken if any army officials are found guilty. The killing of 13 years old boy is serious crime and if any body has committed it will automatically qualify for a severe punishment. what further action will he take beyond penal punishment.

Certainly army officers do enjoy certain immunity against criminal proceedings but certainly not against this type of killing.

Recently supreme court India has made remark on armed forces immunity and it goes like this "You cannot say that an army man can enter any home commit a rape and say he enjoys immunity as it has been done in discharge of official duties," the apex court remarked. This case will also be taken up in similar lines, cannot killing a 13 year old boy is certainly not the official duty of the army. The army chief has said something for the sake of making a statement. His statement has no meaning and the people of this country needs action and not cover up & media statements.

“Torture or other inhuman treatment in India”

image Purulia arms drop extradition case was yet another failure for CBI. CBI is known to lose the extradition cases. The best one is bofors extradition case. The Danish court has agreed to the point that kim davey  may be subjected to torture or other inhuman treatment and dismissed the extradition case. It’s a national shame that CBI could not convince the Danish court on extradition. The courts remarks over the inhuman condition at Indian jail is unacceptable and as a country India should fight this case and government has to mount pressure on Danish government regarding this.
