Even if criminal nexus levels fake charges , police file fake cases against me or my dependents to silence me , this complaint is
& will be effective.
If I or my family members or my dependents are denied our fundamental rights , human rights , denied proper medical care for ourselves , If anything untoward happens to me or to my dependents or to my family members - In such case Chief Justice of India together with the jurisdictional revenue & police officials will be responsible for it , in such case the government of india is liable to pay Rs. TWO crore as compensation to survivors of my family. if my whole family is eliminated by the criminal nexus ,then that compensation money must be donated to Indian Army Welfare Fund.

EDITORIAL : WAKE UP Corrupt Judges & Police of India - Bapuji's dandi march- the origin of civil dis-obedience movement
Greetings on the birthday of our bapuji , Mahatma Gandhi on 02nd October. Just hanging photograph of Gandhi in office room , court hall or police station won’t serve any purpose. Before gandhi’s photo only many corrupt practices , injustices are enacted by public servants. Many of our public servants , Judges & Police are even unfit to sit before Mahatma Gandhi’s photograph , let alone invoke mahatma’s name during speech or court ruling. Let those very Judges & Police first learn to follow ideals of Mahatma Gandhi in their official capacity as well as personal capacity. The public servants enjoy luxuries , 5 star non veg meals , alcoholic drinks all at tax payers expense. These judges give judgements running into hundreds of pages with moral guidance , great quotes to commoners , police use filthy language , 3rd degree torture methods against innocents , commoners , when there are rich crooks , criminals justice kowtows before their feet. No brilliance , quotes of judges , no bravery , valour of police , why ?
We respect the honest few in judiciary , police & public service , who inspite of repeated transfers , withholding of promotions , threats to their own lives are doing their duties & upholding constitution of india. WE SALUTE THOSE HONEST FEW IN JUDICIARY , POLICE & PUBLIC SERVICE. Here the term JUDGE includes all public servants doing quasi judicial functions upto chief justice of india.
Why no suo motto action taken by police or judges when injustices are happening before public eyes before their very own eyes ? why no action taken by judges & police even when injustices are reported to them ? Some of the public servants mention agricultural income as their source of wealth. Year after year original farmers are dying , committing suicide all over india due to crop failure , fall in prices of agricultural products , etc. How come these public servants are making money by agriculture , with what crops & selling in which markets ? the government must not send progressive farmers , legislators abroad for study tour , to learn farm techniques instead they can send them to the farms of corrupt judges , police & public servants.
Inspite of our repeated appeals for justice , judges are mum.
1. Are judges not interested in apprehending criminals & recovering crores of public money ?
2. Are judges not interested in apprehending master minds behind Late prime minister Rajiv Gandhi assassination ?
3. Are judges not interested in prosecuting greedy , corrupt industrialists ?
4. Are judges not interested in apprehending greedy , corrupt industrialist of RPG enterprises ?
5. Are judges not interested to apprehend criminals within RBI & BRBNMPL ?
6. Are judges not interested to do their duties to protect fundamental , human rights of commoners ?
7. Are judges not interested to do their duties , to legally prosecute their corrupt colleagues ?
8. If not , why those judges & police are not quitting their jobs , pave the way for a honest person ?
It is on this day in 12/03/1930, mahatma gandhi led people to dandi in gujarath state,india , to peacefully protest against the atrocious, illegal tax levied by the occupiers-britishers on natural salt. This non-violent, civil dis-obedience movement soon became a mass movement throught india & shook the very foundations of the colonial british government . it is an important milestone in our freedom struggle.
Today, in india even after 1947's independence commoner's are yet to relish the fruits of independance. Criminals have occupied the seats of power , in their greed for power & money are violating the fundamental/human rights of commoners. The saving grace is that still a few honest people are here & there in seats of power. We the commoners must come together & support those honest people in their endeavours. towards , this objective on this holy day SOS e Voice for Justice on web was born.
Let us build ram rajya of mahatma's dream through non violent means within the existing democratic framework .that ram rajya is aptly described by poet shri. Ravindranath tagore as,
Where the mind is without fear & the head is held highWhere knowledge is freeWhere the world has not been broken up into fragmentsBy narrow domestic wallsWhere words come out from the depth of truthWhere tireless striving stretches it's arms towardsperfectionWhere the clear stream of reason has not lost it's wayInto the dreary desert sand of dead habitWhere the mind is led forward by theeInto ever widening thought and actionInto that heaven of freedom , my fatherLet my country awake.
Jai hind. Vande mataram.
Your’s sincerely,
Nagaraja.M.R.
Crusaders against Corruption: List of Whistleblowers in India
India is the largest democracy in the world and some of the biggest organizations in the world are managed by the Indian government. After independence, India inherited a lot of functionality and laws from British. Over a period of time these laws and procedures seemed to be ineffective in handling big public departments. From time to time people have raised their voice against the corrupt activities in governmental offices and contracts. In India, laws are often misused to provide advantage to a group of people. “Whistle Blower” is a person who exposes any kind of information or activity that is deemed illegal, dishonest, or not correct within an organization. Here we are presenting some whistle blowers who fought against illegal and corrupt system and suffered heavily.
1: Satyendra Dubey (1973–2003):- He was an Indian Engineering
Service (IES) officer posted as Project Director in the National Highways Authority of India (N.H.A.I) at
Koderma. Indian Government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee had started ambitious Golden Quadrilateral
project to connect all major cities of India via four and six lane highways. At this time he was
responsible for the expansion of Aurangabad-Barachatti section of National Highway 2. He discovered
that Larsen and Toubro had taken contract from Indian government and passed it to smaller contract
mafias who were incapable of handling such a large scale project. Apart from this, he noticed that
proper procedure and quality was not maintained while constructing the roads. He wrote to his senior
officials in N.H.A.I and when he didn’t get proper response he wrote directly to Prime Minister Atal
Bihari Vajpayee. He requested that his identity to be kept secret but the letter along with his bio-data
was forwarded to Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. While returning from a wedding in
Varanasi he was murdered in Gaya, Bihar on 27 November 2003.
2: Shanmugam Manjunath (1978 – 2005):- He was a manager at
Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) posted Lakhimpur Kheri in Uttar Pradesh. Manjunath was murdered for
sealing a corrupt petrol station which was selling adulterated fuel. He had sealed two petrol pumps in
Lakhimpur Kheri for three months and when they started operating again he took a surprise raid to
check the quality of fuel. He was shot six times and his dead body was found in the back seat of his car.
This news created huge outcry in nation and media. Sessions court found all accused guilty and
sentenced them to death. Allahabad high court changed the verdict to life imprisonment of 5 while
acquitting the other two. Indian Oil Corporation paid a compensation of 2.6 million INR to Manjunath’s
Family.
3: Narendra Kumar (1979–2012): Narendra Kumar was an Indian
Police Service (I.P.S) officer from 2009 batch and he was posted in Morena district of Indian state of
Madhya Pradesh. Morena district is famous for fine quality of sand found in Chambal River bed which is
used in construction of buildings, and in past years illegal mining is rampant in not only Morena District
but in many parts of Madhya Pradesh. Narendra Kumar was posted as sub-divisional police officer in
Morena district and he had been trying to stop illegal quarrying in the area. On 8th march he received
information about illegally mined stones being carried in a tractor. He went to check if the information
was true or not. He reached the spot and asked the driver to stop but the tractor driver ignored his
warning and ran vehicle over him.
4: Lalit Mehta (1972–2008): Lalit Mehta was a Right to Information
(R.T.I) activist who had exposed ongoing scams in National Rural Employment Guarantee Act in
Palamau District of Jharkhand. Lalit Mehta was an engineer turned social activist. He was actively
involved in activities that sought to advance rural employment, basic health facilities, right to food, and
child rights. At the time he was working as full-time activist of the Right to Food Campaign. He was also
the secretary of the Vikas Sahyog Kendra (VSK), a non-governmental organization based in Palamau. On
the evening of 14th May 2008 he was travelling back to Chatarpur on his motor bike when he was
attacked and killed. The Chhatarpur Police found his mutilated body and a belt around his neck
Kandaghati in Chhatarpur on May 15. He was strangled and his face was smashed to deformed beyond
recognition. It was suspected that he was murdered by “people who siphoned off NREGS funds”.
National RTI Forum started Lalit Mehta RTI Gallantry Award, honoring his contribution in exposing
scams via R.T.I.
5: SP Mahantesh: He was serving as a Deputy Director of Cooperative
Audit in Karnataka. Throug his investigation he found that there were several irregularities in land
acquisition, layout formation and allotment of sites and it involved many officials and politicians. He had
prepared an audit report of the BEML Employees’ Cooperative Society, which was accused of making
improper land allotments to several influential persons. He was attacked thrice prior to final assault that
claimed his life on 15th may 2012.On the evening of 15th may he was driving home in his Maruti 800
when he was stopped by four assailants. Attackers first dragged him out and beat him with iron rods
and punches. When he went unconscious, his body was thrown on sharp stones. This whole accident
happened at high security zone where chief justice of Karnataka lives but according to police out of 16
CCTV cameras none was able to record footage as it was raining heavily that day. The 48-year-old died
five days later due to a cardiac arrest.
6: Amit Jethwa (1975 – 2010): He was an Indian environmentalist
and social worker and he worked actively in the Gir Forest area near Junagadh, Gujarat. During his
work as a social worker he found that illegal mining was carried out in protected areas and he charged
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament, Dinu Solanki as main culprit. He was working as
the president of the Gir Nature Youth Club and he was the one who highlighted the use of a Chinkara
deer in a scene in the movie Lagaan and opposed a Bhuj court decision which put a stay on inquiry
against the actor-director Aamir Khan. Not only this but he was also instrumental in the five-year jail
term of Bollywood actor Salman Khan for shooting an endangered Chinkara deer. On 20th July, soon after
he filed a case against BJP MP, he had gone to meet his lawyer near the Gujarat High court in
Ahmedabad. As he was leaving the complex, two assailants on a motorcycle shot him at close range with
a country-made pistol. He fought bravely with the assailants but they were able to escape. In the initial
days of enquiry Gujrat police gave clean chit to Dinu Solanki but this was severely criticized. Later the
case was transferred to CBI and in November 2013 Dinu Solanki was arrested by CBI.
7: Satish Shetty (1970 – 2010): Satish was an Indian social activist
and he was noted for exposing many land scams in Indian state of Maharashtra. He had used the Right
to Information Act to expose irregularities in Government offices and construction work carried out in
Maharashtra. Shetty was a systematic whistleblower and he was credited with throwing light on several
major land scams in the Talegaon—Lonavala regions a famous region in Maharashtra for Real- Estate
developers and retailors. He also exposed the corruption in the construction of country’s first
expressway the Mumbai—Pune expressway. In the morning of 13th January he was attacked by three to
four masked men with butcher’s knives when he was reading a newspaper at a kiosk at around 7 on his
way home from a morning walk. The police investigations proposed a different theory for the murder,
and eventually the case was transferred to CBI.
8: Rinku Singh Rahi: He was Provincial Civil services (PCS) civil
servant and he was fighting against corruption in sponsored welfare schemes in Uttar Pradesh (UP). He
was born in Aligarh and completed his B.Tech degree in Metallurgy at NIT, Jamshedpur in 2002. In the
same year, he scored All India 17th rank in GATE but he opted for a civil services career instead. Rahi
ordered an inquiry into the allocation of funds by social welfare department in Muzaffarnagar over the
last five years and he found discrepancies. Out of the allocated funds to be distributed as part of Old-age
pension scheme, money was taken for 62,447 people but only 47,707 beneficiaries received it. There
were no records for 55 million rupees distributed to 22,000 OBC students and 110 million rupees
distributed to all BPL families. He also went on hunger strike to draw attention of Akhilesh Yadav
government’s reply on his pending RTI applications. He was shot six times by local gangsters, damaging
his jaw and the vision of one eye and he is currently working as a coordinator at Bhimrao Ambedkar
coaching center in his hometown.
9: Yashwant Sonawane: He was posted as Additional District Collector of
Malegaon (Maharashtra). He had received information about oil adulteration carried out at large scale
in Malegaon. While going to Nandgaon he spotted a few trucks parked in a very suspicious manner near
the road side. Trucks of big oil companies like IOC, HPCL and BPCL were parked. When he started
investigating about the trucks a man named Popat Shinde, along with his men attacked the officer, beat
him up and then set him on fire. He was declared dead on arrival at the hospital.
10: D. K Ravi (1979 – 2015): Doddakoppalu Kariyappa Ravi
commonly known as D. K. Ravi was an Indian Administrative Service officer of Karnataka cadre from the
2009 batch. He was posted as Deputy Commissioner in Kolar district and was known as pro people
administrator and started crackdown of illegal sand mining and encroachment of government lands in
Kolar and Gulbarga. Later on he was transferred to Bangalore as Additional Commissioner of
Commercial Taxes and there he prepared a list of many tax defaulters and set a target of 1000 crores to
collect from tax evading defaulters. During first two weeks of his working he collected 138 crore INR
from tax defaulters and came into lime light of many political goons. He received many threat calls from
tax defaulters and sand mafia. On 16th march 2015 he was found dead with his body hanging on celling
fan in his residence in Koramangala, Bangalore. The initial police investigation, forensic and medical
evidence showed it a case of suicide but then protest erupted in cities where he worked and mass band
was organized by opposition parties for handing over the inquiry to Central Bureau of Investigation
(C.B.I). On 13 April 2015 the Centre ordered a CBI probe into the mysterious death of IAS officer DK
Ravi and the case is still going on.
The list compiled by us is only a fraction of whistle blowers working in India. In recent times Whistle
blowers have used Right to Information as their prime tool to gather information about various
government schemes, their expenditure and corruption going in them. In the past five years, some 150
whistleblowers have allegedly been harassed or jailed for exposing corruption; while as many as 20
have been killed.
