The main problem in India is that each institution takes up the responsibility of executing such things on a standalone basis without taking opinion from other departments linked with it. For eg. in this case, Income Tax dept. This is exactly what happens with out roads, Telecom, Electricity companies etc dig roads without co-ordinating with the BMC/MMRDA etc and resultant, the roads are always digged to hunt for gold. This not only results in a criminal waste of money, but also results in inconvenience to common man.
God knows how India is going to become No.2 in terms of economic growth without departments co-ordinating with each other and avoiding unwanted expenditure.
The honourable Finance Minister keeps increasing the service tax and the overall ambit of service tax. Never has he ever spoken about reducing the unplanned expenditure and the staff costs. Each and every department is over-staffed with significant number of personnel with no adequate skill. It feels good overall that government is providing opportunities. However, no one realises that it is you and I who are paying the costs of such inefficient people and inefficient policies of the government.
