Does only AAM ADMI HAVE TO PAY TAXES
by Ashok Gupta on Mar 20, 2008 01:37 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is very strange that if an aam admi delays in paying taxes or makes purchases immediately the tax dept.will issue letters and show cause. How is it that some influential people blatantly have accumalated wealth and spend lavishly and no questions are asked by the same tax dept.
Better if act is passed exempting the influential from taxes as pretending to prosecute them is wastage of money. The aam admi is aware and can see these people getting above the law.

yes we are indians but can nothing be done by a peoples movement ? Because wrong is happening we must re-act otherwise it will continue and can only become worse.It has to be a body of lawyers /advocates who rally the people around them and press for transparency - a few of us dont count we are not powerful and the govt.is aware of this and thus keeps dividing us.

Look at the so-called renowned lawyer Ram Jethmalani shamelessly arguing that its a political vendetta.... He is using his intellect and energy to protect worst culprits on this earth.

Chidambaram the Finance Minister had to resign during Harshad Mehta scam, but he is back again as FM. Lallu Yadav an accused in Rs.3000 crore Fodder scam. He is the Railway Minister. The bigger the scam, the bigger is the Minister in UPA govt. which is supported by the corrupt commies (Jyoti Basu, Prakash Karat).

can the country unite and say we will not pay any taxes unless the known evaders are made to pay along with penalty and interest. Cases against politicians are concluded and there is transparency where the tax money is going ?
