High
Court Shocked At Loot Of Taxpayers Funds By Corrupt Babus. Calls For
Non-Cooperation Movement By Taxpayers To Eradicate "Hydra Headed
Monster" Of Corruption
Hon’ble Justice A. B. Chaudhari of the Nagpur Bench of
the Bombay High Court has passed severe strictures against the
Government for turning a blind eye to the rampant corruption in the
Country. The learned Judge lamented that “It shocks one and all as
to the manner in which the taxpayers’
money is being swindled,
misappropriated and robbed by such unscrupulous holders of posts”.
He also pointed that corruption has become the order of the day over
the past few decades and that taxpayers are helpless victims of the
sordid state of affairs.
“Does the taxpayers pay the money to the Government for such kind of acrobatics being played” Justice Chaudhari asked in a rhetorical manner.
He also lamented that ethics and morals have taken a back seat in
modern India’s scheme of things. He opined that to eradicate the “hydra headed monster”
of corruption, citizens have to come together to tell their Governments
that they have had enough. He also recommended that taxpayers’ may have
to resort to refuse to pay taxes by a “non-cooperation movement“.
The learned Judge also found fault with the attitude of the
employees’ unions who are otherwise very vigilant about their rights. He
expressed surprise that the Unions do not “condemn, outcast or demonstrate against their counterpart bureaucracy indulging in corruption” and on the contrary support their misdeeds.
