Even if criminal nexus levels fake charges , police file fake cases against me or my dependents to silence me , this complaint is

& will be effective. 

If I or my family members or my dependents are denied our fundamental rights , human rights , denied proper medical care for ourselves , If anything untoward happens to me or to my dependents or to my family members - In such case Chief Justice of India together with the jurisdictional revenue & police officials will be responsible for it , in such case the government of india is liable to pay Rs. TWO crore as compensation to survivors of my family. if my whole family is eliminated by the criminal nexus ,then that compensation money must be donated to Indian Army Welfare Fund. Afterwards , the money must be recovered by GOI as land arrears from the salary , pension , property , etc of guilty police officials , Judges , public servants & Constitutional fuctionaries.

EDITORIAL :  WAKE UP  Corrupt  Judges & Police of India - Bapuji's dandi march- the origin of civil dis-obedience  movement

Greetings  on the birthday of  our bapuji , Mahatma Gandhi on 02nd October.   Just hanging  photograph of Gandhi  in  office room  , court  hall or  police station  won’t serve any purpose.  Before gandhi’s  photo only many corrupt practices , injustices are enacted by public servants.  Many  of  our public servants , Judges  & Police   are  even unfit  to sit before  Mahatma Gandhi’s photograph , let   alone  invoke  mahatma’s name during  speech or court ruling.  Let  those very  Judges & Police   first  learn to  follow ideals  of Mahatma Gandhi  in their  official  capacity  as  well as personal capacity. The public servants  enjoy luxuries ,  5 star non veg meals ,  alcoholic drinks   all at tax payers expense. These judges give judgements  running into  hundreds of pages with moral guidance , great quotes  to commoners , police  use filthy language , 3rd degree torture methods against  innocents , commoners  , when there are rich crooks , criminals  justice kowtows before  their feet.  No brilliance  , quotes of judges , no bravery , valour of police , why ?

We  respect the honest  few in judiciary , police & public service , who  inspite  of repeated   transfers , withholding of promotions , threats  to their own lives are doing their duties & upholding constitution of india. WE SALUTE THOSE HONEST FEW  IN JUDICIARY , POLICE & PUBLIC SERVICE. Here the  term  JUDGE  includes all public servants  doing quasi judicial functions  upto chief justice of india.

 

 

Why  no  suo motto action taken by  police  or  judges when  injustices are happening  before public eyes before their very own  eyes ?  why  no action taken by judges & police  even when injustices are reported to them ?  Some  of the public servants  mention  agricultural income as their source of wealth.  Year after year   original farmers are dying  , committing  suicide  all over  india  due to  crop  failure  , fall in prices of agricultural products , etc.  How come these public servants are making money by agriculture , with what crops & selling in which markets ? the government must not send  progressive farmers , legislators   abroad  for study tour , to learn farm techniques instead they can  send them to the farms of corrupt judges  , police & public servants.

Inspite of our repeated appeals  for justice ,  judges  are mum.

1.       Are judges not interested in   apprehending  criminals & recovering  crores of public money ?

2.       Are   judges not interested in apprehending  master minds behind  Late prime minister Rajiv Gandhi assassination ?

3.       Are judges not  interested  in   prosecuting  greedy , corrupt industrialists ?

4.       Are  judges not interested in  apprehending  greedy  , corrupt  industrialist  of RPG  enterprises ?

5.       Are  judges  not  interested  to  apprehend  criminals  within  RBI & BRBNMPL ?

6.       Are judges not interested to do their duties to protect fundamental , human rights of commoners ?

7.       Are judges not interested to do their duties , to legally prosecute their corrupt colleagues ?

8.       If  not , why those  judges & police are not quitting their jobs  , pave the way for a honest person ? 

It is on this day in 12/03/1930, mahatma gandhi led people to dandi in gujarath state,india , to peacefully protest against the atrocious, illegal tax levied by the occupiers-britishers on natural salt. This non-violent, civil dis-obedience movement soon became a mass movement throught india & shook the very foundations of the colonial british government . it is an important milestone in our freedom struggle.

Today, in india even after 1947's  independence  commoner's are yet to relish the fruits of independance. Criminals have occupied the seats of power , in their greed for power & money are violating the fundamental/human rights of commoners. The saving  grace is that still a few honest people are here & there in seats of power. We the commoners must come together & support those honest people in their endeavours. towards , this objective on this holy day   SOS e Voice for Justice   on web  was  born.

Let us build ram rajya of mahatma's dream through non violent means within the existing democratic framework .that ram rajya is aptly described by poet shri. Ravindranath tagore as,

Where the mind is without fear & the head is held highWhere knowledge is freeWhere the world has not been broken up into fragmentsBy narrow domestic wallsWhere words come out from the depth of truthWhere tireless striving stretches it's arms towardsperfectionWhere the clear stream of reason has not lost it's wayInto the dreary desert sand of dead habitWhere the mind is led forward by theeInto ever widening thought and actionInto that heaven of freedom , my fatherLet my country awake.

Jai hind. Vande mataram.

 

Your’s sincerely,

Nagaraja.M.R.

 

Crusaders against Corruption: List of Whistleblowers in India

India is the largest democracy in the world and some of the biggest organizations in the world are managed by the Indian government. After independence, India inherited a lot of functionality and laws from British. Over a period of time these laws and procedures seemed to be ineffective in handling big public departments. From time to time people have raised their voice against the corrupt activities in governmental offices and contracts. In India, laws are often misused to provide advantage to a group of people. “Whistle Blower” is a person who exposes any kind of information or activity that is deemed illegal, dishonest, or not correct within an organization. Here we are presenting some whistle blowers who fought against illegal and corrupt system and suffered heavily.

1: Satyendra Dubey (1973–2003):- He was an Indian Engineering

Service (IES) officer posted as Project Director in the National Highways Authority of India (N.H.A.I) at

Koderma. Indian Government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee had started ambitious Golden Quadrilateral

project to connect all major cities of India via four and six lane highways. At this time he was

responsible for the expansion of Aurangabad-Barachatti section of National Highway 2. He discovered

that Larsen and Toubro had taken contract from Indian government and passed it to smaller contract

mafias who were incapable of handling such a large scale project. Apart from this, he noticed that

proper procedure and quality was not maintained while constructing the roads. He wrote to his senior

officials in N.H.A.I and when he didn’t get proper response he wrote directly to Prime Minister Atal

Bihari Vajpayee. He requested that his identity to be kept secret but the letter along with his bio-data

was forwarded to Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. While returning from a wedding in

Varanasi he was murdered in Gaya, Bihar on 27 November 2003.

2: Shanmugam Manjunath (1978 – 2005):- He was a manager at

Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) posted Lakhimpur Kheri in Uttar Pradesh. Manjunath was murdered for

sealing a corrupt petrol station which was selling adulterated fuel. He had sealed two petrol pumps in

Lakhimpur Kheri for three months and when they started operating again he took a surprise raid to

check the quality of fuel. He was shot six times and his dead body was found in the back seat of his car.

This news created huge outcry in nation and media. Sessions court found all accused guilty and

sentenced them to death. Allahabad high court changed the verdict to life imprisonment of 5 while

acquitting the other two. Indian Oil Corporation paid a compensation of 2.6 million INR to Manjunath’s

Family.

3: Narendra Kumar (1979–2012): Narendra Kumar was an Indian

Police Service (I.P.S) officer from 2009 batch and he was posted in Morena district of Indian state of

Madhya Pradesh. Morena district is famous for fine quality of sand found in Chambal River bed which is

used in construction of buildings, and in past years illegal mining is rampant in not only Morena District

but in many parts of Madhya Pradesh. Narendra Kumar was posted as sub-divisional police officer in

Morena district and he had been trying to stop illegal quarrying in the area. On 8th march he received

information about illegally mined stones being carried in a tractor. He went to check if the information

was true or not. He reached the spot and asked the driver to stop but the tractor driver ignored his

warning and ran vehicle over him.

4: Lalit Mehta (1972–2008): Lalit Mehta was a Right to Information

(R.T.I) activist who had exposed ongoing scams in National Rural Employment Guarantee Act in

Palamau District of Jharkhand. Lalit Mehta was an engineer turned social activist. He was actively

involved in activities that sought to advance rural employment, basic health facilities, right to food, and

child rights. At the time he was working as full-time activist of the Right to Food Campaign. He was also

the secretary of the Vikas Sahyog Kendra (VSK), a non-governmental organization based in Palamau. On

the evening of 14th May 2008 he was travelling back to Chatarpur on his motor bike when he was

attacked and killed. The Chhatarpur Police found his mutilated body and a belt around his neck

Kandaghati in Chhatarpur on May 15. He was strangled and his face was smashed to deformed beyond

recognition. It was suspected that he was murdered by “people who siphoned off NREGS funds”.

National RTI Forum started Lalit Mehta RTI Gallantry Award, honoring his contribution in exposing

scams via R.T.I.

5: SP Mahantesh: He was serving as a Deputy Director of Cooperative

Audit in Karnataka. Throug his investigation he found that there were several irregularities in land

acquisition, layout formation and allotment of sites and it involved many officials and politicians. He had

prepared an audit report of the BEML Employees’ Cooperative Society, which was accused of making

improper land allotments to several influential persons. He was attacked thrice prior to final assault that

claimed his life on 15th may 2012.On the evening of 15th may he was driving home in his Maruti 800

when he was stopped by four assailants. Attackers first dragged him out and beat him with iron rods

and punches. When he went unconscious, his body was thrown on sharp stones. This whole accident

happened at high security zone where chief justice of Karnataka lives but according to police out of 16

CCTV cameras none was able to record footage as it was raining heavily that day. The 48-year-old died

five days later due to a cardiac arrest.

6: Amit Jethwa (1975 – 2010): He was an Indian environmentalist

and social worker and he worked actively in the Gir Forest area near Junagadh, Gujarat. During his

work as a social worker he found that illegal mining was carried out in protected areas and he charged

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament, Dinu Solanki as main culprit. He was working as

the president of the Gir Nature Youth Club and he was the one who highlighted the use of a Chinkara

deer in a scene in the movie Lagaan and opposed a Bhuj court decision which put a stay on inquiry

against the actor-director Aamir Khan. Not only this but he was also instrumental in the five-year jail

term of Bollywood actor Salman Khan for shooting an endangered Chinkara deer. On 20th July, soon after

he filed a case against BJP MP, he had gone to meet his lawyer near the Gujarat High court in

Ahmedabad. As he was leaving the complex, two assailants on a motorcycle shot him at close range with

a country-made pistol. He fought bravely with the assailants but they were able to escape. In the initial

days of enquiry Gujrat police gave clean chit to Dinu Solanki but this was severely criticized. Later the

case was transferred to CBI and in November 2013 Dinu Solanki was arrested by CBI.

7: Satish Shetty (1970 – 2010): Satish was an Indian social activist

and he was noted for exposing many land scams in Indian state of Maharashtra. He had used the Right

to Information Act to expose irregularities in Government offices and construction work carried out in

Maharashtra. Shetty was a systematic whistleblower and he was credited with throwing light on several

major land scams in the Talegaon—Lonavala regions a famous region in Maharashtra for Real- Estate

developers and retailors. He also exposed the corruption in the construction of country’s first

expressway the Mumbai—Pune expressway. In the morning of 13th January he was attacked by three to

four masked men with butcher’s knives when he was reading a newspaper at a kiosk at around 7 on his

way home from a morning walk. The police investigations proposed a different theory for the murder,

and eventually the case was transferred to CBI.

8: Rinku Singh Rahi: He was Provincial Civil services (PCS) civil

servant and he was fighting against corruption in sponsored welfare schemes in Uttar Pradesh (UP). He

was born in Aligarh and completed his B.Tech degree in Metallurgy at NIT, Jamshedpur in 2002. In the

same year, he scored All India 17th rank in GATE but he opted for a civil services career instead. Rahi

ordered an inquiry into the allocation of funds by social welfare department in Muzaffarnagar over the

last five years and he found discrepancies. Out of the allocated funds to be distributed as part of Old-age

pension scheme, money was taken for 62,447 people but only 47,707 beneficiaries received it. There

were no records for 55 million rupees distributed to 22,000 OBC students and 110 million rupees

distributed to all BPL families. He also went on hunger strike to draw attention of Akhilesh Yadav

government’s reply on his pending RTI applications. He was shot six times by local gangsters, damaging

his jaw and the vision of one eye and he is currently working as a coordinator at Bhimrao Ambedkar

coaching center in his hometown.

9: Yashwant Sonawane: He was posted as Additional District Collector of

Malegaon (Maharashtra). He had received information about oil adulteration carried out at large scale

in Malegaon. While going to Nandgaon he spotted a few trucks parked in a very suspicious manner near

the road side. Trucks of big oil companies like IOC, HPCL and BPCL were parked. When he started

investigating about the trucks a man named Popat Shinde, along with his men attacked the officer, beat

him up and then set him on fire. He was declared dead on arrival at the hospital.

10: D. K Ravi (1979 – 2015): Doddakoppalu Kariyappa Ravi

commonly known as D. K. Ravi was an Indian Administrative Service officer of Karnataka cadre from the

2009 batch. He was posted as Deputy Commissioner in Kolar district and was known as pro people

administrator and started crackdown of illegal sand mining and encroachment of government lands in

Kolar and Gulbarga. Later on he was transferred to Bangalore as Additional Commissioner of

Commercial Taxes and there he prepared a list of many tax defaulters and set a target of 1000 crores to

collect from tax evading defaulters. During first two weeks of his working he collected 138 crore INR

from tax defaulters and came into lime light of many political goons. He received many threat calls from

tax defaulters and sand mafia. On 16th march 2015 he was found dead with his body hanging on celling

fan in his residence in Koramangala, Bangalore. The initial police investigation, forensic and medical

evidence showed it a case of suicide but then protest erupted in cities where he worked and mass band

was organized by opposition parties for handing over the inquiry to Central Bureau of Investigation

(C.B.I). On 13 April 2015 the Centre ordered a CBI probe into the mysterious death of IAS officer DK

Ravi and the case is still going on.

The list compiled by us is only a fraction of whistle blowers working in India. In recent times Whistle

blowers have used Right to Information as their prime tool to gather information about various

government schemes, their expenditure and corruption going in them. In the past five years, some 150

whistleblowers have allegedly been harassed or jailed for exposing corruption; while as many as 20

have been killed.
