Dear @nsitharaman and @narendramodi, with having full faith in you & your government, I wish to draw your attention to certain facts. A thread
We haven’t come across or heard incident of corruption against your government which should be a normal practice but yet when compared with the previous UPA government, it is a commendable achievement
However the situation is not as good at the ground level. There has been lesser corruption because of use of systems driven techniques and lesser human intervention. But still there is rampant corruption in many departments & ministries, by bureaucrats & officers
Officers including IRS officers at Income Tax office both at investigation & assessments level, Enfircement Directorate dealing in FEMA, PMLA, IT. Customs offices, GST department again at all levels to name a few are highly corrupt
I and my office have been dealing with many of them on behalf of our clients and regularly come across several incidents of revenue officers asking for huge money and threatening to open old cases and harass clients on various counts
GST, ED officials including IAS, IRS officers openly threaten people of ‘heavy consequences’, raids. arrests if their demands are not met
Businessmen for peace of mind even if they haven’t made any deliberate adjustment or have evaded taxes concede to them and are afraid of reporting these cases to anti corruption department or to other authorities or to press fearing situation getting even worse
Even in Covid times, unnecessary summons are being issued, investigations, surveys being conducted at the offices, innocent people being called upon and officers are harassing them, making them wait for several hours, asking unnecessary question and threatening them
Criminal proceedings being initiated for small GST errors. Explanations at ED, IT offices are being sought for transactions as old as a decade.
Due to client secrecy and fear of harassment of clients, I’m neither revealing clients’ names nor the names of corrupt officers. Thanks
