Income Tax for sustaining corruption

I agree with ML Gupta and I wish to add that instead of raising and collecting more income tax from common and working class , for the politician, there should be totally different income tax slab and for the concern minister " where the scam has taken place" should pay more tax and his salary, perks should be reduced to nil , till the scam money is recovered and his property and other asset should be freezed. He is the culprit who has not done his duty.
