CAG Report again Proves that Cong and
BJP are "Dukan" of Reliance and Adani
No Wonder Why Both Parties are in
Favour Of Weak Lokayuktas
The tall claims that Delhi Government had been
making regarding development in Delhi has been exposed. The CAG report on
performance of Delhi government has brought to front the inefficiency and
corruption in managing all the essential services including health, water,
housing and security. It also shows the insensitivity of the government towards its
citizens. Significant increase in cost of implementation of its programs has
also manifested itself in the form of multiple times increase in the cost of
electricity and water bills in past few years.
The report should not be treated just as CAG report
but as the agony of common people of Delhi. There is hardly any department,
which has remained untouched by corruption and commission raj. The CAG report
indicates the same as well. But, what will happen to this report? Would it also
be sidelined and put in cold storage like the earlier CAG reports?
Though the CAG has unearthed one scam after the
other – each one bigger than the earlier – no real investigation has happened
due to lack of independent investigation agency. Now that the CAG has exposed
Delhi Government, the same question arises here as well. Who would investigate
these charges? We are sure that if these serious charges are investigated by an
independent investigating agency, not only Sheila Dikshit and her Ministers but
also many of her associates would be behind the bars.
The CAG report has validated that there is large
scale corruption in DJB and electricity departments – issues that Aam Aadmi
Party has been fighting for. This further asserts the need for a Civil Disobedience
movement in Delhi. The CAG report clearly states that Delhi Transco has given
undue advantage to private discoms. Even water is a scarce commodity in the
capital with almost one fourth of Delhi depending on tanker supply for water.
And when residents of Delhi pledge not to pay inflated bills and demand for
their rights, it is termed as "spreading lawlessness".
As Arvind Kejriwal's upwas enters the 12th day, more than 8.84 lakh people
have signed protest letters to Shiela Dishit saying that they would not be
paying inflated bills. Till yesterday night, i.e. April 2nd, around 8,84,384
protest letters have been signed. But far from accepting these protest letters,
the Delhi Chief Minister uses force on activists to stop them delivering the
letters.
Unfortunately, not only Congress but BJP is also
equally involved in the loot. The CAG in its report on Gujarat has clearly
stated that Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi has given undue advantage to big
corporate houses – Reliance Industries, Essar Ltd and Adani Power Ltd. This has
led to losses worth several crores. What is even more surprising is that the
report was presented on the last day of the session, so as to avoid furore by
the opposition.
To save its face
from these charges, the Gujarat has recently passed a toothless Lokayukta Bill.
If Narendra Modi is seriously thinking on the lines of development of India, he
should have set an example in his state. Rather he preferred to pass a weak lokayukta
law, which will be nothing but a puppet in the hands of the Government.
Meanwhile, on the 12th day of upwas, Arvind Kejriwal's health parameters are within normal range. His
Blood Pressure is 107/69, pulse 72, sugar 126, ketones 3+ and weight is
57.5kgs.
