To,
Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Hon’ble Prime Minister of India,
South Block,
New Delhi-110011
Hon’ble Sir,
This has with reference to my letter dated 5th December, 2010, to your honor with reference to Serious Allegations published against Smt. Sonia Gandhi and Sri Rahul Gandhi, in the New York Times dated 6th October, 2007, and copy to your honor of my another letter dated 25th January, 2011, addressed to Hon’ble Mr. Justice B. Sudershan Reddy, Hon’ble Mr. Justice S. S. Nijjar, of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India under subject caption: ‘Documents in my possession are suggesting that Government is making false claim that it will try to bring back money stashed abroad’.
Sir, I am personal experiences from Shri Pranab Mukherjee, when I was President of an SSI Association of Aluminium Users, while Shri Pranab Mukherjee was Steel and Mines Minister of India and tried to misuse his office for the benefit of Birla’s Hindalco, at the cost of Larger Public Interest. I have also personal experiences from the working of yourself, during your tenure as Finance Minister of India, in my capacity as Hony. General Secretary of the Indian Council of Small Industries (ICSI).
Sir, on records, I am raising the issue of Indian Black Money in Swiss Banks since long time starting from the year of 1977 and in view of my study; I can say and submit that on this particular issue, the Government of India is completely dishonest to perform its Constitutional Duties. I am giving very simple example in support of this serious charge against the Indian Government. When an Indian opening a Bank Account in India, he is liable to submit his PA No. issued by the Income Tax Department or fill-up a form to be send by the respective Banks to Income Tax Department. Contrary to such mandatory provision, Government of India is allowing Indians to open Bank Accounts in a Foreign Bank hiding his/its identity from Indian Government, and unconstitutionally claiming it just as a matter of tax evasion, ignoring the material facts that it is a simple matter of Loot of the Indian Economy. Such policy of the Government of India is completely discriminating between the Indians having no Bank Accounts in Swiss Bank or any other similar foreign Bank, maintaining the confidentiality of the Bank Accounts, and those Indians including NRI’s, who opens the Bank Accounts in Swiss Bank or any other similar foreign Bank, taking advantages of the confidentiality of the Bank Accounts, based on the Loot of Indian Economy. Therefore, this is a strong evidence of the dishonesty of the Government of India against Loot of Larger Public Interest and also of the Economy of India.
If the Government of India could have been honest enough, then it should have been placed a Resolution before the Security Council of United Nations Organizations for Sanction against such countries, including Switzerland, which do not ensure necessary Banking Laws ensuring regulation to restrain the Loot of the Economy of any country, which at present prevailing in violation of the (1) Vienna Declaration and Program of Action, adopted by the World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna on 25 June 1993; (2) Resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948 United Nations adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; (3) Resolution 2200A (XXI) of 16 December 1966 entry into force 23 March 1976, in accordance with Article 9 International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (4) Resolution 2542 (XXIV) of 11 December 1969 on Social Progress and Development (5) Resolution 39/11 of 12 November 1984 Declaration on the Right of Peoples to Peace and security (6) Resolution 41/128 of 4 December 1986 Declaration on the Right to Development (7) Resolution 2200A (XXI) of 16 December 1966 International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights entry into force 3 January 1976, in accordance with article 27; and Resolution 55/2 of 8 September 2000 United Nations Millennium Declaration, all Proclaimed by General Assembly of United Nations Organisations.
Therefore, this is my humble submission that without any further delay, Your Honor should take appropriate steps for the Resolution to be placed before the Security Council of UNO for sanction against the Countries, including Switzerland Government, which protecting the Loot of Economy of any Country, by protecting Banking Confidentiality of Bank Account Holders from the respective Governments, and also make provision that when a Project is started by any Public Limited Company by Indians or NRI’s, all of its Directors should declare on affirmation that they do not have any Bank Account in any foreign Bank ensuring confidentiality of Banking Secrecy, and in case such affirmation proved as false in future, he is liable to prosecuted stringently, and his entire asset in India should be frozen. Otherwise, History will describe Your Honor, as a most dishonest Prime Minister of India, bearing the paint of the Most Honest Person, who compromised, against the country’s largest interest, just to hold the Office of Prime Minister of India.
With Best Regard,
Yours faithfully,
(Milap Choraria)
