[rti4empowerment] Reply: Wherefrom President of india, CM of Delhi, Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Railway Minister, CM of Karnataka etc

Dear Ms. Singh & others,
 
As there was no awareness among people of India of their rights, the elected government functioned as unbirdled horses, behaving as they were monarchs in true sense. Although irreparable damage has been done, a concerted coordinated effort by all organisations all over India may achieve some result. However, I am sceptical of it turning into a mass movement as people say(I was not born then) it was during independence struggle led by  Noble Soul (Mahatma) M.K.Gandhi. At that time White Skinned man was common enemy for all. Today we are a devided house. Priorities are very many & varied. We do not have any punitive or penaltative means to contain these ulawfulness or violation of laws, provisions of Constitution of India by Constitutional functionaries. Even the proposed  Lokpal is going to be another farce just as information Commissions/ners. With only 10% of Indian population  concerned over these aspects 76% struggling to eke out  living & for rest 14% who are so rich that nothing matters except money it may be a battle lost before it is fought.

Ours is a socialist state.I have skimmed thru the article on the public trust doctrine.I have frequently written letters to the editor of at least 2 dailies quite often on the State's abandonment of its duty to the  public(very often I think they don't get printed).We all have to work together already too much damage is done.We have to work together.Do what we can.Divide up duties amongst ourselves.

Dear All,
 
Some excerpts from an article received unsolicited. It is attached. Please spare time to read it albeit it is 18 pages but very informative.
 
Art.51 A of The Constitution of India lays a Fundamental Duty on every citizen as follows:
 
It shall be the duty of every citizen of India— (a) to abide by the Constitution……(i) to safeguard public property and to abjure violence;
 
The doctrine enjoins upon the Government to protect the resources for the enjoyment of the general public rather than to permit their use for private ownership or commercial purposes. 
 
The sovereign {The State} cannot, therefore, transfer public trust properties to a private party if the grant would interfere with the public interest. 
 
Under the doctrine of Public Trust, various land acquisitions by State & allocation of it to private parties  can be challenged not only by invoking Art 51 A. of The Constitution of India but also this Doctrine, imputing The State for breach of Public Trust, defrauding Public, acting as land mafia or playing into their hands, corruption, ineffective management of natural resources (land is a natural resource)etc.,
9.    Art. 39 of The Constitution of India. 39. The State shall, in particular, direct its policy towards securing—
 
(a) that the citizens, men and women equally, have the right to an adequate means of livelihood; (Highway deprives right OF ADEQUATE means of livelihood for MANY)
 
(b) that the ownership and control of the material resources of the community are so distributed as best to subserve the common good; (THERE ARE AMPLE  EXAMPLE OF STATE ACTING IN CONTRARY TO THIS)
 
(c) that the operation of the economic system does not result in the concentration of wealth and means of production to the common detriment; (THERE ARE AMPLE  EXAMPLE OF STATE ACTING IN CONTRARY TO THIS)
 
(d) that there is equal pay for equal work for both men and women;
 
(e) that the health and strength of workers, men and women, and the tender age of children are not abused and that citizens are not forced by economic necessity to enter avocations unsuited to their age or strength;
 
[(f) that children are given opportunities and facilities to develop in a healthy manner and in conditions of freedom and dignity and that childhood and youth are protected against exploitation and against moral and material abandonment.]
 
39A. The State shall secure that the operation of the legal system promotes justice, on a basis of equal opportunity, and shall, in particular, provide free legal aid, by suitable legislation or schemes or in any other way, to ensure that opportunities for securing justice are not denied to any citizen by reason of economic or other disabilities.

WEDS

Sir,
Allotment of plots & granting other monetary awards is the rubbish decision of Governments. The players have not done anything for the country. Whatever they have achieved is for their personal gains only. And they have won the cup utilising the natural resources of the country only.
 
Remember Abhinav bindra got crores for show of his shooting skills. Compare with what a soldier get when he lays his life by practicing the same skills in strict real conditions. That is why almost on every half year we read in daily news papers that our defence forces lack this much post of able officers despite plenty of unemployment in the country.
 
Summarily speaking the monetary gains to players in comparision to actual heros is much - much disproportionate.
 
I personally disagree with govt. decision and urge all able persons to realise from this angle too.

Dear All,
 
It is a matter of pride that Indian Cricket team won world cup. Has anyone given thought  Wherefrom President of India, CMs of Delhi, Karnataka, Mumbai Jharkhand, Union Railway Minister etc., derive the empowerment or authority to squander public funds to benefit private Individuals by granting Rs. 1 crore & plots/flats etc to cricketers when 76% of Indian population subsist by earning Rs 25 per day?  What is the benefit these cricket players have given to general public? Why stash their pockets when they are already billionaires?
 
Why not file a PIL just as some Pakistanis have filed for awarding Rs. 5 lac per cricketer there?
 
Regards,
WEDS
