Subject: Need to curb
the sources of black money at home
Sir
Over
the past few months of your government’s tenure, it has been observed that your
government has been deeply anxious to bring back the black money stacked in the
Swiss Bank. However, little success has been achieved in this direction so far.
As per leading newspaper reports, the government is finding it difficult to even
assess the amount of India’s black money stacked in foreign banks.
However,
it is a matter of great surprise that while the ongoing private unaided school-admission
process in Delhi is generating hundreds of crores of rupees in the form of
‘donations’ and capitation fee, which are not only black money but also qualify
as proceeds of crime, in terms of the prohibition contained in Section 13 of
the RTE Act, 2009, this issue has hardly received any attention of your
government.
If
the quantum of black money so generated by private unaided schools across the
country in the last 10 years is assessed, we are sure that it will far surpass
all the governmental estimates of black money stacked in foreign banks. While
the government does not have any control over the black money abroad, it surely
has all the requisite machinery to check this source of black money-generation
at home.
We,
therefore, urge the government to divert some of its attention to this
direction.
