Time for IAS officers to unite and teach politicians a lesson

It is sad to know how an IAS officer is been treated (Durga). I think it is time for all IAS officers to get united and teach politicians a lesson. Sad to see state of India, where they are treated like slaves when someone want to do something for the country.

Which "Caged Parrot" Needs To Be Released First ?

The Supreme Court is for the release of the CBI from the cage. The Ministers, politicians, gangsters want the officers to be packed back to their cadre authorities, suspended, put on compulsory wait (whichever clever officer coined this expression deserves the Order of Merit of the Crown for beating the British in superior Macaulay speak), AOP (awaiting posting order) or dismissed (as if in the Nawab's/Raja/Maharaja/Shanhanshah's employ). So it needs to be examined where from do the criminals of all kinds draw their "power" to stand up to officers whom they should otherwise be afraid of and even show the cheek of seeking their dismissal. The answer lies in the warmth of the ill-gotten money, proceeds of crime, hidden from taxation income and smuggling money, especially of the hawala kind. The current devaluation of the rupee is due to hawala operations. If the politics of the country is to be decriminalized and transparency introduced in governance in the country, The Income Tax Department (along with all associated revenue authorities)Need To Be First Released From The Cage. The ought to be granted autonomy. Once the parallel economy is controlled by the autonomous revenue authority, the foul mouthed gravy train passengers will come to their senses and rule of law will get restored. there will be no need to de-cage the CBI then. Will the Government or the Judiciary kindly consider it in larger public interest?

Transport Allowance shouldn't be Taxable

As per existing guidelines, Transport Allowance to the extent of Rs.800/- (old TPA) only is exempted from Income Tax. After implementation of 6th Pay Commission Report, however the amount of TPA has been increased to Rs. 200+DA. The Ministry of Finance should issue necessary instructions for exemption of the entire amount of Transport Allowance, which is given in performance of duty.
