Can Chidambaram escape the 2G trial

Today the Supreme court has pronounced a very important judgement in the 2G spectrum allocation case. It’s has given some sort for breathing time for Mr.Chidambaram. The supreme court in it’s order has cancelled 121 licenses issued to telecom companies under the UPA-1 regime. This is a big blow to the UPA and to Congress and DMK in particular. Now the question is will UPA yet again face another embarrassment, defending Mr.Raja back fired at them and now defending Mr.Chidambaram  may back fire at the UPA government. The supreme court has decided not decide on inclusion of Mr.Chidambaram in the 2G trial and left it to the CBI court to decide upon the matter. February 4th is the day on which CBI trial court is expected to deliver it’s judgement on Mr.Chidambaram inclusion in the 2G trial.

What are the possible scenario:

Scenario – I : Inclusion on Mr. P.Chidambaram: 

In this case the Mr.Chidambaram will be left with very few choice. He will for sure will appeal against the decision but there will be lot more chances of the appeal being dismissed rather than being allowed in the high court or in the supreme court.

Scenario – 2 : Non- Inclusion on Mr. P.Chidambaram: (Most likely scenario)

Well in this case there will be an appeal as against non inclusion of Mr.P.Chidambaram and the appeal will be most probably be allowed. The chances of succeeding the appeal is predicated based on today’s judgement on 2G case by supreme court. This scenario is the mostly likely because this would allow time to Mr.Chidambaram and lower court may try to put the ball in the superior courts to decide on this critical matter. It’s seems form today’s judgement that Mr.P.Chidambaram is most likely to face trial and likely to lose the Home Ministry.

Anna movement demystified

Anna hazare had started his fasting on 16 august and his fasting is still continuing. He seems determined to give India a strong lokpal bill. The government, close associated of the government and a very few social activist question the methodology and constitutionality of the protest. Right to protest is a fundamental rights and no body can dispute on this fact. Here are some of the question which needs to be analysed to bring out the truth.

 

1. Is this  protest a way of  threatening / coercing the government?

The government formed a joint-drafting committee. The government latter in the committee meeting refused to accept some of the major points raised by the civil society. The government then presented it’s version of the bill before the parliament which means joint drafting committee actually did not draft a bill jointly. The government constituted joint draft committee was just acting like a standing committee and listening to views of civil society.  The anna hazare team protested this and demanded some of there views to added but the government showed deaf ears to the request. It was an arrogant behaviour of the government. This arrogant behaviour needs to be dealt with way it has be dealt. This can be compared with use of force in act of self defence. It is certainly coercion on an arrogant and inefficient government which it’s rightly deserves.

2. Cannot make laws in the street?

Certainly if a group of draftsman sit in the street certainly can come out with very good bills.

The argument that cannot make laws in the street is so vague and ridiculing the civil society , certainly anna’s team has not drafted the bill in the streets and certainly has not asked the government to pass it but just requesting the government to consider their point of view.

3.People sovereign or parliament sovereign in India:

Our democracy is not that of UK where the parliament is supreme. In India constitution is supreme. In constitution the people are first and then the institutions formed under the constitution. It’s the will of the people and not the will of the parliament. so the voices of the people have to be heard. some may argue that there are only few hundred thousand people protesting and it’s not the entire population. In a democracy it’s always the majority wins, here there is no counter protest or voices against the movement in any part of this country which it’s self shows that team Anna has majority in the issue. 

The movement is right in every aspect and it’s the government which needs to act rather than making tuff talks, counter arguments etc

Government in search of magic wand

UPA – II had promised a lot when the returned back to power and now they are in search of magic wand to curb corruption. can government really find a magic wand and succeed against gaining it’s lost popularity. A dumb prime minister and loudspeaker spokesperson has certainly failed. The dual power setup in UPA has been a biggest failure and only defence for every issue is the integrity of Manmohan Singh. Now can they put of the fire lit by Anna hazare against corruption.

 

The congress during the pre independence and also for short period after the independence remained a true representation of the Indian people. During Independence struggle the congress used to fight against the British raj or then government now there is protest against the congress government. The congress has lost the people’s trust and no longer the true representative of the Indian peoples.   Will the  government continue to act arrogantly and bring up fantastic stories to defend themselves against the movement or will they prepare a very well drafted legal defence against the problem. It’s seems that UPA is heading towards a biggest disaster.

Corruption vs irregularity

The prevention of corruption act, 1988  talks about taking illegal gratification. The  act defines "gratification" as not restricted to pecuniary gratification or to gratifications estimable in money. Under this act offences can be made out only if there is proof of taking illegal gratification. let us examine some of the current corrupt cases which are under trail,

2G spectrum,

1. Raja has not received but has help Kanimozhi to receive the illegal gratification.
2. Kanimozhi has received illegal gratification though her TV company.
3. Maran, fmr textile minster has received illegal gratification indirectly through his brothers company.
4. BS Yeddyurappa has received illegal gratification through a family managed trust.

Now the question is that  Sheila Dikshit has been charged with irregularities by CAG report, does this amount to corruption. It’s inclusive with in  popular meaning of the word corruption, but under the prevention of corruption act this not an offence since no illegal gratification received.

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.

Selective and targeting non congress governments

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.

Not a precedent says sibal

“I don't say it is a precedent. In the given situation, the government was in, it is a decision that we took with open eyes and I don't consider it to be a precedent... the government was in a particular situation,” Mr. Sibal told PTI

It is his freedom to express his views but his views need not necessarily be correct or an widely accepted view , why should it not be considered as a precedent? just because government feel unsecured it shall not lose it’s value. In a democracy a legitimate people movement shall ought to be respected and demands to be fulfilled.

Midnight arrest of democracy

CNN-IBN has reported that kapil sibal said “ swami who teaches yoga asanas to the country shouldn't teach political asanas”  and the mid night arrest followed it… is it democratic?, well many have argued that by going on a fast one is actually holding the government for a ransom and is undemocratic… well now government has arrested and charged a person for rioting but actually he was peacefully protesting. Many of those who have looted the nation’s wealth remain free without any charge being framed against them but a person who is protesting peacefully and well with in his legal rights being charged with rioting is mockery of democracy.

Kapil sibal .. devil’s advocate

Well, regarding kapil sibal’s statement, when an Advocate like him can take up politics, why should not a yoga guru take up politics or does he not have the right hold a peaceful demonstration against the government which is in his opinion inefficient in tackling the corruption and black money issue. A Lawyer cum minister making such irresponsible statement is never a welcomed one at any point of time.

Kanimozhi still walks free…

Kanimozhi’s bail plea is adjourned till 20 of this month. Public would certainly have a suspicion on the adjournment, this didn’t happen to all the other accused which includes high profile Raja who was ex-minster. Is there any influence on the judiciary?, certainly a question which needs no answer. Certainly there is a feeling that supreme court may come down heavily on CBI court. Congress party certainly is boasting of adequate action in the 2G spectrum scam but it’s clear and becoming evident that the entire investigation along with PAC and JPC would lead no were but to cover ups. This is the hard truth about the Indian government and the judiciary. We feel that judiciary is certainly not free and strong enough in India.

Rahul is an opportunist

Knowing fully well about the current situation rahul joined the farmers strike. Rahul is very much interested in his welfare, he is keen in building up his and congress party image in the state of Uttar Pradesh. surprisingly rahul did not join the Lokpal bill movement but suddenly find himself supporting the farmers violence turned non violent protest. When there was lokpal movement against his party and the central  government there was no comments from him but when the movement or protest is against other political party he jumps in immediately to support the protest. All his support id only for political mileage and for nothing else.

No judicial inquiry to purulia arms drop, says Indian government

Pranab on 30-Apr-2011 has said that there is no need for a judicial enquiry as the left (communist) party did ask for a judicial enquiry on purulia arms drop case for past several years, may be it’s the limitation act that pranab is referring to and said that since 3 state assembly elections are over (after the purulia arms drop incident) and the 4 state assembly election is in process but communist parties did ask for judicial enquiry during the past elections. now that 4 election is in process they have lost the locus standi to ask for a judicial enquiry.

is it not the duty of the government to probe into such serious case when the key accused has made some shocking revelations on the incident?

The present government is counter questioning the silence/in action of certain political party for all this while and involves finger pointing politics.

Congress reply to Purulia arms drop case

Congress, the ruling party has asked following question in reply to the purulia arms drop case revelations made by a news channel ,

1. The congress party wants to know why this has surfaced now and not before (this question was asked by congress party spokesperson Jayanthi).

What a bizarre question, any one hear this question will laugh at the party and it’s spokesperson. Any responsible party who has nothing to hide would have said we support a through inquiry in to the matter. Trying to take a political millage out this sensitive case is condemnable.

2. BJP and Left are answerable…

when congress is asked a question about a cover up of the purulia arms drop case the congress replies in a strange manner, counter questioning and asking the opposition party to own up for mistake that was done during the then congress government under Narasimha rao. 

 

Clear case of cover up

The information regarding the purulia arms drop case is kept secret and only known to high power politicians of then congress government under Narasimha rao and the investigating agencies. If there was no wrong done by the then congress government, the present government should disclose all information regarding the case but it has not done it so far. The government is preparing a reply of revelation made by news channel on purulia case, but the question is for how many days will take for preparing a reply. The government is very keen in not replying and i am sure the government will reply only on the 10th May and not before the polls in west bengal is over. I am making a prediction that government show importance to PAC issue and divert the purulia at least till 10 of may.

PAC Mess … JPC will be a bigger mess…

It’s a mess again, it resembled yet an another obstructed parliamentary proceedings. It’s really unfair and unbearable  on the part of the congress and DMK, the two most affected parties of 2G scam. The parliamentarians have now turned into gangsters and making mockery of democracy . how long the people will bare the unacceptable behaviour of the parliamentarians.

Government lacks the will

Has the congress government got the will to investigate and punish the guilty in the 2G spectrum allocation scam. The political agenda of the congress party will certainly not allow the fair trail and will allow big fishes to slip away. Congress government have tackled very similar situation in the past and successfully evaded the trail and cleaned it’s name.

Yet an another cover up

The congress government would definitely will end it up by a big cover up. It has already found way to cover it up. The reason they would state is simple, “The policy framed by BJP was wrong “ and “judiciary cannot review the policy matter of the government”. happy end as in most of our Indian cinema.

PM’s silence, will he speak up ?

Prime minister is more often called as Mr.clean in the Indian politics. In regard to 3G scam by Mr.Raja, he unfortunately did not act. According to law an act with an intention is crime, were act means doing an act or wilful omission. In this case PM has wilfully omitted to act upon Mr.Raja or at least he should have answered the Letter for a sanction for prosecution of Mr.Raja. May be soon he will land up in Scam, Politic may change even the best of persons. Now it’s high time that he gives a honest answer to the country or may he will follow the blame games / other tactics that a normal politician will do at this point.

Raja is punished, he has resigned, we are happy…

Spectrum and common wealth games scams are on amongst the biggest scam ever know to Indian public. These scams have sidelined the Kargil scam and other small scam of persons from Karnataka government. These scam clearly shows how the coalition government in India swindle money.

Past few months there has be a new form of justice system that is be followed in India, that is a CM or Minister is involved in Scam, their punishment is to give up their present post temporary till the people of this country forgets about the scam. probably they take a much needed break to spent their hard earned money form the people of India.

Where are we heading towards, our country has become one of the most corrupt and people are becoming more immoral and inhuman, people are ready to do any thing for the sake of money. our leader are worst kind of criminal, unaccepted  behaviours and worst examples for the younger generation.

Deemed university – who is to be blamed ?

In India the accountability of the government servants are very minimal, the public servant who is responsible for any mishaps or problem is let off without even question them. Don’t you think so that government of India is responsible for giving permission to setup the deemed university and they are making a regular assessment and monitoring the deemed universities. Now when the standards are not met who is the prime accused here is it the public servant who has to safe the public interest or the Businessmen who does it to earn the money, no doubt that both are punishable but who this the prime cause for this act, it’s no doubt that it’s the Public servant and government. The government should publically announce it’s failure in controlling standards of the deemed university and should take very serious steps in improving the education in our country.

The better solution would be to provide still some more time to the deemed university to up grade their system and make strict regulations and monitor them better  instead of closing down the deemed university. This shows the inexperience of the government in handling some sensitive issue. The public in general are losing the faith in this government.
