Is Dmk Govt Using Public Money For Personal Advantages As Charged By Their Own Coalition Leader Mr Evks?


EVKS is a freak among the front line leaders of the congress in the state, for speaking bitter truths boldly, even within Congress forums as well as in public! He was one among many congress leaders defeated in last General Elections by the laxity of their own coalition parties who did not work for the coalition candidates! So ths may be thought to be a voice of revolt due to the subtle betrayal, but not quite so! He was always known to be forthright in his views!
He had recently charged that the free colour TV distribution is not aimed at any public good, but to gain profits for the ‘n’ number of TV channels owned by the extended family of the State CM! In other words, the cunning CM had pretended to help party to win elections, by de facto bribing poor people with a non essential item (when they are already in dearth of umpteen essentials, from food stuff, kerosene to cook and so forth)! The massive monthly receipts earned by Sun Group and Kalaignar Group are no secret!
It is not clear why the major opposition (Read Jaya) does not take the issue to the courts to expose the misuse of public money to benefit an industry in which the rulers have interest!
If it was food or cloth subsidy, it was ok, because the private trade does not benefit in any big way by those schemes, but not so with distribution of TVs to poor or pumpset motors to farmers!
Apex Courts would most likely rule (going by their daring verdicts in the past) that when homeless people abound in the state and unemployment overflows, there should be no drain of pubvlic money on unproductive freebies, since it is not merely a wrong economic decision (which may be the prerogative of rulers to commit) but a glaring bribe to the people to earn commercial gains to the rulers as well! Besides the highly probable kickbacks earned in the procurement of these goods, there is the vicious misuse of sellling them by poor recipients (even buy back by party workers themselves!) in the market, to get the hard pressed money for the families (there has been many police catch of such goods hijacked to other states and to local markets)! The Poor still deem these items as a ”luxury” which they can not enjoy paying monthly rentals to service providers!
Well, what is your take on this very sensitive issue that may grow into major wastage if not checked by aggressive protests by society?
