Re: [IAC++] Govt goes soft on Kiran Bedi and Manish Sisodia NGO corruption

Dear Hari

Whereas you are certainly right on the principle of the thing that nobody can question an individual on how he uses his own money, these do not apply in Arvind's case.

1) As I remember, Arvind was an unemployed 'vela' who used to survive on tips from Aruna Roy and Shekhar Singh. He (and Manish) also used to do part time touting in the Income Tax Dept and MCD under the guise of their then dummy social service organisations like Parivartan and Kabir.

2) Aruna Roy took him in hand, and got him foreign prizes like Asoka, Magsaysay etc. Everyone knows about this vast NGO racket which confers fake prices with tax free money ultimately financed by MI-6, CIA etc.

3) Insofar as IAC is concerned, did Arvind get that money personally or in name of India Against Corruption ? Certainly nobody expected Arvind to keep/hang on to all the money like he did. Not only does Dr. Sanyal want the money back (and accounted for), but even Anna Hazare apparently has some small dues pending.

4) Instead focus on what the money was used for. Lets repeat this again and again. Jangal mein Mangal. Holidays in South Africa with women and booze. Gambling in Sun City. Dubious investments in emu farming. Investment in fly-by-night business promoters (close to Congress politicians) appointed by Arvind and Manish who promised IAC coordinators to multiply money by 10 times in 4 months, and so on.

5) It is not IAC's money that was embezzled. It is the money of the poor people.

6) We support / respect Anna Hazare's valiant efforts to support some cheated IAC coordinators  to recover their deposits with this branding organisation through the photo-shoot program. It seems that only the Bhubaneshwar shoot was a fiasco, a few of the others where this branding group was not involved are said to have gone off smoothly.

Dear Mr. Patel,

I do not agree with you on such irrelevant point (it is not an issue). Tomorrow
you would ask me - an IAC volunteer- that I should publish the amount spent on
my meals every month, and  also railway or air ticket cost on my travel.

Without Social crusaders, no one would have known the extent of corruption in India
and hugeness of money stashed abroad.

Dear IAC members

IAC National Executive Committee condemns the soft action of the Union Home Ministry to condone financial irregularity of expelled IAC workers.

In a shocking move that shows the close links between the UPA Government and IAC's expelled workers like Kiran Bedi and Manish Sisodia, the Home Ministry has submitted a "soft" affidavit on their financial irregularities to the the Delhi High Court, which lets them off the FCRA hook (for now) despite finding irregular utilisation of funds

Kiran Bedi  was running 15 bank accounts and Manish Sisodia was using foreign funds for his personal benefit.

Some of the admissions

"The Centre today told the Delhi High Court that some NGOs affiliated to anti-graft activist Anna Hazare's team had received foreign funds, which were utilised irregularly"

"during inspection of Kabir's account in August, some vouchers were not supported with bills and some bills for repairing personal vehicles were claimed from the association's accounts."

" cash was disbursed to many persons without justification or record, most of the foreign contribution has been spent on tours and travel without approval of trustee and Sisodia has been getting salary for discharging his duties, said the affidavit adding that Kabir's present office runs from residential flat of Sisodia's wife."

"The government said during inspection of India Vision Foundation's (Kiran Bedi's) accounts in November, it was found that the organisation maintained 15 bank accounts including FCRA designated bank account and it frequently withdrew foreign contribution."
