On money for cross-voting & India !!!

Dear Friends:
The needed proof is visible & self-evident, except to the selfishly blind.

This need to change: lock, stock and barrel, if India is to be a respected nation. Because no one respects a nation whose public leaders are simultaneously in misappropriation business.

I remember Tehelka case. The then NDA Govt went after the whistle blower rather than the culprit.

In a recent case, a supreme court chief justice was caught allowing his sons, to run business real estate business from his official residence, while he was presiding over the case of unauthorized shops in residential area. His sons were direct beneficiary of his decision to insist on zonal segregation. When it was brought out in the open, the poor investigative journalists had to apologize under threat of "contempt of court" & jail, ordered by chamcha justices of Delhi High Court.

JMM bribary case was a straight forward case. The culprits were destined for the Jail, till Supreme Court performed Legal jugglery. Thus culprets escaped scot-free because the supreme court twisted the case unduly favoring the culprits, (which included the Prime Minister, Narshimha Rao, an otherwise decent man), which halted the "Rule of Law" on it's track.

India has never recovered from that misuse of law, yet. Though conviction of Manu Sharma in Jessica Lal case, was a case where "Rule of Law", finally prevailed, it was an exception. And it was between two families, who were high up in the social ladder.

This needs to change, period.

I am no admirer of BJP and they are no angels. But such happenings are bad for everyone of the ordinary, people. But NDA or UPA, they seem to be stuffed with CROOKS.

Such shameful acts need to change, if India is ever to claim to be a world class democracy, and earn it's due place in the comity of the Nations.
Best wishes,
Sandip
