Supreme Court has condemned ALL Corrupt Ministers,
MLAs, Bureaucrats & Policemen of Maharashtra
 
Naran Hirani Jee,
 
    When you say "why should Government of Maharashtra pay the fines of sin of Vilasrao Deshmuka, if any one has to pay fine or needs to go to jail, it is Vilasrao, entire responsibility lays at his door step," you may be right in a way, but you have probably not understood the full implications of the Supreme Court judgement.
 
    If the fine were paid only by the former Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh, just one person would stand condemned by the Supreme Court of India. Do you honestly think that only one person had been involved in the grave crimes committed against the many poor farmers of Maharashtra, some of whom were compelled to commit suicide?
 
    Did the Government of Maharashtra under Vilasrao Deshmukh not use the other ministers, MLAs, bureaucrats and the police force to undermine Democracy by helping the money-lenders to cheat, loot and threaten the farmers who could not pay back loans carrying an extremely high rate of interest of 10 per cent per month? Many defaulting farmers committed suicide because their lands and other assets were forcibly grabbed by the gangsters of money-lenders. The Government of Vilasrao Deshmukh deliberately prevented the police from helping the farmers to save their lands from being taken over by the money-lenders.  
 
    By imposing a fine of Rs.10 lakh on the Government of Maharashtra, the Supreme Court of India has actually condemned ALL the ministers, MLAs, bureaucrats and policemen who were involved in helping the money-lenders to cheat and loot the poor farmers, and to illegally grab their lands, due to which many farmers even committed suicide. By this revolutionary action, the Supreme Court is trying to end the ruthless exploitation of the farmers and other poor people of India by the organized gangs of corrupt politicians, bureaucrats and money-lenders.
 
    The Supreme Court has exposed the true face of the extremely corrupt Congress Party, which is pretending to be a Great Savior of Aam Aadmi or the common man.

 We must congratulate the Supreme Court of India for imposing a fine of Rs.10 lakh on the Government of Maharashtra for the crime of "gross misuse of power" committed by the former Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh who prevented the arrest of money-lenders responsible for the suicides of debt-ridden farmers belonging to the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra.

This is flow of democracy, why should Maharashtra government have to pay the fine for incompetence and unlawful behavior of government minster, If Deshmukh behave unlawfully and negligent of his duty whether he is in the government or he is out of government responsibility is entirely his, why should Government of Maharashtra pay the fines of sin of Vilasrao Deshmuka, if any one has to pay fine or needs to go to jail, it is Vilasrao, entire responsibility lays at his door step, when we elected him we did not elect him to behave unlawfully and he has taken oath for it that he will behave lawfully and responsibly in government, unless he charged for laying under the oath and behaving unlawfully and neglectfully of his duty these things will go on, remember when we elected him, he was elected on bases that he will behave lawfully and not neglectfully of his duty in government, unless case is prove on those bases lying under oath and breach of public trust these people will go on behaving unlawfully and neglectfully of their duty in government whether we like it or not and we will be paying it, so what is use. (In short if government minster behaves unresponsibly and unlawfully it is he who is responsible of it and not democracy)

    It is not just the farmers who have been committing suicide due to their inability to pay back the loans taken at very hight rates of interest . Even in large cities of Maharashtra, like Pune and Mumbai, it is very common to find money-lenders who charge interest which can be as high as 10% per month on the loans they give. As the interest is paid every month, it really amounts to paying an interest of more than 120% in a year! Many poor and middle class employees, rickshaw-drivers, small shop-keepers and others, who take small loans, are never able to pay back all the borrowed money, along with such heavy rates of interest, to the money-lenders.
 
    Most of the borrowers can never get out of such debts all their lives, and they lose whatever small assets they own, like the huts or rooms in chawls, rickshaws,  small shops, etc. The money-lenders use their gangsters to threaten the debtors for recovering the money or to forcibly take over the properties of the defaulters who cannot pay the high rates of interest. The police almost never come to the aid of such borrowers because the debt-ridden persons have no money to pay any bribes to them. The police favor the money-lenders who can pay bribes regularly for being allowed to run their illegal business of money-lending.
 
    It is not surprising that even the corrupt politicians like former Chief Minister of Maharashtra and now Union Cabinet Minister, Vilasrao Deshmukh, favor the money-lenders.
 
    It is quite common for some desperate debt-ridden persons to commit suicide even in towns and cities. Other borrowers are forced to become beggars for the rest of their lives. Many persons, who have been deprived of their lands and homes by the money-lenders and corrupt leaders, have even become terrorists like the Naxalites and Maoists.
 
    Our corrupt leaders are boastfully claiming that India is becoming an economic super-power, but the fact is that India is a super flop. Can India progress fast when the people belonging to the poor and lower middle classes are still being exploited mercilessly by the gangs of money-lenders? While the world is moving forward, India is still following the ancient and medieval systems of ruthless exploitation, which allow the money-lenders to openly cheat and loot the common people of India with the support of the corrupt political leaders and policemen.
 
    We must congratulate the Supreme Court of India for imposing a fine of Rs.10 lakh on the Government of Maharashtra for the crime of "gross misuse of power" committed by the former Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh who prevented the arrest of money-lenders responsible for the suicides of debt-ridden farmers belonging to the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra.

Sack Vilasrao Deshmukh, urge Vidarbha farmers

"Local legislators are getting political protection with the help of top leaders and are exploiting the debt-trapped farmers who are committing suicide"

Tuesday, December 14, 2010 5:52:08 PM by IANS

Nagpur, Dec 14 (IANS) Farmers of Maharashtra's Vidarbha region have urged Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to sack Vilasrao Deshmukh as heavy industries minister after the Supreme Court Tuesday pulled him up for interfering in the enforcement of a law to regulate private money lending in the state. "We have written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and requested him to sack Deshmukh and take possible legal action against him," said Kishor Tiwari, president of the Vidarbha Jan Andolan Samiti (VJAS), an NGO that protects the rights of farmers and farm widows of the region.

"Local legislators are getting political protection with the help of top leaders and are exploiting the debt-trapped farmers who are committing suicide," Tiwari added.

The Supreme Court Tuesday reprimanded the former Maharashtra chief minister.

Speaking for the bench, Justice Asok Kumar Ganguly dismissed the Maharashtra government's appeal challenging the Bombay High Court order indicting Deshmukh and imposing a fine of Rs.25,000.

Dismissing the appeal, the apex court enhanced the fine to Rs.10 lakh.

Deshmukh invited the reprimand of the apex court for interfering with the police action on a complaint by farmers alleging family members of Congress MLA Dilip Kumar Sananda were involved in money lending.

Deshmukh's private secretary Ambadas had asked the police not to register a FIR on the complaint of the farmers. This instruction of Ambadas was recorded in the police diary.

The judgement came after a petition was filed by Sarnagdharsingh Chavan representing the Vidarbha farmers, who had sought quashing of Deshmukh's directions to stall investigations against Sananda.
