What I could made out from the mails of Mr. Sanjay Kumar Mishra is that the corruption in your department goes on unabated and the instructions and the circulars are issued just to keep the public and the victims (of corruption) amused. The happenings, activities, actions, events, goings-on, deeds, undertakings, endeavors, on complaints are just an effort to brush the complaints under the carpet under the grab of some undisclosed internal action of the department. I may add that the officials are inventing novel ways to make quick buck, even from the procedure that has been incorporated to bring about transparency and to check the corruption. The arm-twisting tactics by the department officials give rise to a chain reaction and the people who are made to pay through their noses, will only raise this money from stealing from the revenue - that should have been gone to the Government exchequer otherwise, in connivance of the same staff who have forced them to pay. It also forces me to think that the departmental officials are not adequately paid, so as to need them to involve in the corrupt practices to raise extra money. They are making the entire environment corrupt. Mollycoddling the staff is no remedy. It is rather encouraging them to indulge more in corruption.
I am also pained that you never took pains to know about the complaint, the proof the complainant offered. Your action/attempt, as evident from your letter 3860 dated 12 April 2013, is to sit up and save the officials from action. You never bothered to make public the DO Letter of the Commissioner, Report Received from the jurisdictional Commissioners.
I also do not agree with your contention in your letter that "making generic complaint showing the whole department in bad light does not serve the purpose of either the department or the assesses or the public at large". Your Department is already viewed as one of the most questionable in terms of corruption by the general public in general and assesses in particulars. This can be easily measured of standard of living even of the pettiest employee of your department, as compared to other departments.
I am sure that you will like to see the proof of the corruption Sanjay is holding and offered you to see. I hope that your department will make public the documents sought by Mr. Sanjay. I hope that you will be as much interested in eradicating corruption from your department as the assessees are in particular and the Public in general.
I will revert with my comments after you send the required documents to Sanjay.
Thanking you,
Cordially yours,
