MESSAGE BOARD

   

Mr Prime Servant - Here is a sample of your Ir-Reverent Servant


Please follow Principles of Natural Justice

Dear Editor,
You always criticize the revenue officers for not following the principle of natural justice but you have posted article about Dr Ajitesh without giving him an opportunity to explain his side of the story and giving the reader the complete perspective. This is extremely unfair and unethical on your part not follow what you expect other to do. It is becoming quite common on taxindiaonline to criticize the departmental officers without hearing their side of the story. While it is understandable that most of your clients are from corporate and they may rejoice the stories which show the department on the bad light, yet for the sake of fairness, you must not be seen to favour one side at the cost of other else you stand to lose all your credibility.
With best compliments
Dr A K Singh
Commissioner LTU Chennai

Re :Please follow Principles of Natural Justice

It is a fact that once you selected for Civil services you are on top of the world. This is what they have inherited from British and are continuing carried forward. They want all the facilities on the cost of tax payers hard earned money without any responsibilities or answerable to anybody. IS HAMAM MAIN ME SAB NANGE HAIN and hence you can not expect and fairness from them, The present PM must bring the administrative reforms with scraping of UPSC exams except for the technical posts. All others should start their career with grass root level. Then they will know the ground realities and perform their duty well and productive manner.

Re :Please follow Principles of Natural Justice

i am surprised with this post. Instead of finding fault with the five year old IRS officer the seniors are jumping to his defence.

The order is quite verbose and even if Mr Vijay Kumar had not added anything into it it would still be a scorcher for the officer.

What is this about hearing the other side of the story? With due respect the Dr. Commissioner has failed to recognize that this report is not a news story but an order of the CIC where the Hon'ble Information Commissioner has penned his displeasure in as many words. And it is surprising that while reporting an order the Commissioner wishes that natural justice be delivered. If that be so, the Gujarat HC (another young IRS officer denying refund was involved) Delhi HC (customs officer cost imposed) and even the Supreme Court or for that matter the CESTAT has in as many cases come down heavily on the departmental officers. does the learned commissioner expect that the reporting media should in all such cases hear the other side of the story and then report the case. I think once the Hon'ble authorities have delivered an order - mind you the Information Commissioner has put it in black and white the events that transpired while hearing the case - it is for the department to take the case the next level and get the remarks expunged if they are so concerned about the young IRS officer. Instead of asking the officer to take a few tips on etiquette if seniors like you rally around him, i know what the department would be in the days to come - just ask your subordinate officers the brashness of the young IRS officers and you will get to know the truth.

And yes, the corporate does relish such news and so also the departmental officers when it is via an order delivered by an august body.

But why are some pained by this - as the saying goes there is always a rotten apple in a basket!
