Army Chief Flies In Air SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Force’s Apache Attack HeliPolitical Corruption Is Eating copter In Ladakh Editorial
Into Heart Of Indian Economy
Nothing has grown more steadily in democratic India than political corruption ever since itsindependence. Ironically, the news of political corruption consumed more media space thanany other line of stories since 1948. Yet, such news had hardly much impact on politicalparties and their indulgence to corruption. Most of the political corruption cases follow apattern — investigations launched by the ruling party at the Centre against opposition partybosses in states. The ruling party in the Centre or states — rarely acts against its owncorrupt leaders. Interestingly, political corruption cases mostly end up without conclusioneither for want of proper evidence or due to the change of the government that initiated suchinvestigations. High profile corruption cases often appear as big public entertainers likeblockbuster film thrillers with little substance. They seem to disappear from public memoryas soon as a new story props up. This is despite the fact political corruption has beensystematically eating into the vitals of the country’s economy and social progress.The first major case of political corruption involved Vengalil K. Krishna Menon as India’sHigh Commissioner to the UK. He was named in a jeep import scandal at the time of the firstIndo-Pak war of 1948. The Indian Army urgently needed jeeps to combat against thePakistani forces in the Kashmir region. Krishna Menon placed an order for 2,000 refurbishedJeeps on a British supplier. The vehicles never reached India in time. And, the price quotedwas very high. For the same price, brand new Jeeps could be purchased from the USA.While the inquiries into the ‘Jeep Scandal’ went on for nearly six years, Govind Ballabh Pant,the then Home Minister, finally announced closure of the case. When the oppositiondemanded a fresh time-bound inquiry, Pant said that the parties were free to make it anelection issue if they were not satisfied by the Government’s decision. By then, the generalpublic lost interest in the case. Unfortunately, political corruption cases are rarely treatedseriously by the government, then and now.Too many political corruption cases against opposition leaders have surfaced lately underthe BJP rule. They seem to follow a pattern with central investigative teams — CBI, ED, DRI,etc indulging in leaking out before the media saucy information on the alleged wrong-doings by the accused as if that is the main purpose of the probe. Investigations take toolong. And, they lose steam as new crime windows open up. Ultimately, most cases boil downto charges of holding assets disproportionate to an accused’s declared income and moneylaundering. BahujanSamaj Party’s Mayawati had paid an income tax of Rs.26 crore for the2007-08 assessment year, following conviction in a disproportionate assets (DA) case. Thatyear, Ms. Mayawati, former UP chief minister, was ranked among the country’s top 20individual taxpayers. Illegal mining, denotification of government land, kickbacks from illegaltrade and transactions, smuggling, money laundering, Ponzi scheme operation and award government contracts are among the common platforms of political corruption. The biggest of DA cases so far involves a father-son duo — Prakash Singh Badal andSukhbir Singh Badal — from Punjab’s Shiromani Akali Dal party. Shiromani Akali Dalpresident Sukhbir Singh Badal is an MP from Firozpur. He served as deputy CM of Punjabfrom 2009 to 2017. Parkash Singh Badal served several times as Punjab’s chief minister. The value of their property was allegedly estimated at Rs.4,326 crore — Rs.501 crore inIndia and Rs.3,825 crore abroad. Others named in DA cases involved well-known politicalfigures such as Lalu Prasad Yadav and some of his family members; Mulayam Singh Yadav,Akhilesh Yadav and Ms. Dimple Yadav; the late J. Jayalalithaa; B.S. Yediyurappa; Reddybrothers of Bellary; Andhra CM Jagan Mohan Reddy; and Congressman-turned-BJP’sAssam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma. The list is quite long, involving many well known CMsand other politicians across the country. According to BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis, formerMaharashtra CM and now serving as the state’s Deputy CM, Shiv Sena’sUddhavThackeray’s government was the “most corrupt in Maharashtra’s history.”In c o m p a r i s o n , - Kapilkumar M.
