Re: [HumJanenge] IAC leaders Airfare Claims !!

Basically tomorrow even the toilet paper which may be used in bit excess by the Anna team will be highlighted as BIG Scam. and People like Roy or basically corrupted persons will highlight that there is big scam of toilet paper and how the Anna team used the toilet paper and water more then normal people and they should be corrupt and should be punished.

I really want to know Mr, Sarbarjit Roy, are you a paid congress person/reporter? One Mr. Singh was surely one.

fair point. a balanced viewpoint on the subject.
 
those knowing that full fare is being reimbursed were also aware that dr. bedi was entitled to 75% disc on national carriers. they yet agreed to pay full fare. all payments were made by cheque so money was 'white' and kept in the banking system, tax paid on it etc. agree minor aberrations, ignorable, are prima facie apparent. and those who wish to bring the lady to book can file an FIR/PIL, rather than pass meaningless judgements from  their living room comforts.
 
it would have done the lady well however, as suggested here, to charge - besides airfare at actuals - a fee for her talk, lecture, guidance, appearance...whatever. no one could have challenged that. lesson learnt.
 
finally, i feel we must be graceful to give the team, who have staked all they have for the nation, personal security included, to hammer out a path wherein we or our children will have a better india to live in. how many of us can take pride in what they have done for us middle class. they have made us discover our voice, our individual and collective strength. just let them be, please.
 
happy festive season to all of you,

Dear Friends,
 
It is  is  accepted  that the claim was for  Business class & travel  in Economy & that too at 75% fare.
In another case, Business class fare has been asked twice ,for a single travel , from 2 different organisations in the same station for 2 lectures  during same visit.
Now one may give any no of reasons & justfications , how so ever noble those may be  , the fact remains that this action is just not correct . Any argument in defence will not hold ground .  
One could  always have asked  the difference as an honorariam  clarifying that it is being done  for the NGO. Consultants, singers & entertainers charge a hefty amount for their similar services . Dont they ?
 Since it involved a  member of Team Anna  who are fighting  a very difficult war against corruption with the politicos,  the matter has been blown out of proportion in the media. Team Anna MUSt remember that there are a large no of people who are not at all comfortable with this IAC movement & are out and out  to find even the smallest weakpoint , real or concocted, with which they can hit the Team . All out efforts will continue  to discourage , frustrate & even threaten  the members  so that  they give up this war of  " Second Independence" as Anna calls it.  
 
 Some  have called it a Scam as if it was also another 2G or  CWG where people have actually pocketed crores where as this case  involves a petty amount of couple of thousands , though one may argue that its also dishonesty irrespective of the amount.Point taken.   
I am of the firm view that we will do good to our nation  if we continue to  lend our full support to this movement as hitherto  & not look for minor aberrations to let them down.
In fact we owe it to our  future generations .
 
Warm Regards

The constant targeting of team Anna especially the timing makes it evident that some blody Govt. Spies are against them. However when the blody spies did not find any substantive offenses, they are now trying to dent the images by making fuss of petty issues.

Did Ms. Bedi used the money for personal gain? Is the money of exchequers? By charging business class and traveling in economy what laws has she violated?

Its her prerogative to use the money the way she wants. If she would have donated the money to this man (Sarbjit Roy) then also there would have problem considering the fact that team anna is building pressure on govt.

Its the blody govt. spies useless fuss meant to dent the images of team anna.

Its common in public as well as govt. Sector, people who are eligible to travel in higher class travel in lower class and get them reimbursed with higher class fare. They are the owner of the difference amount and its absolutely ethical to use the money the way they want.

I still failed to understand what wrong Ms. Bedi has done. I salute team Anna the way they are bearing and withstanding immense pressure.
