New Delhi, Apr. 27
(ANI): Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Monday said the judiciary and
the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) were two institutions which
cannot afford to be imperfect.
second is the CBI," Jaitley said during the 16th D.P. Kohli Memorial lecture on 'Economic Challenges' here.
"Any Investigative agency's responsibility is huge, its discretion is also very large," he added.
Jaitley further described fiscal year 1991 as a defining moment for India, which marked a process where the country decided to unleash energies of its citizens rather than restricting them.
"India decided to discard a politics which wanted to distribute existing resources and even distribute poverty rather than generate wealth," he added.
The Finance Minister, however, said that the year 2014 had brought significant changes for the nation.
"After 30 years we had a clear mandate and a government with virtually a single party majority was voted into power," Jaitley added. (ANI)
By implication, does it mean that the political class can afford to be corrupt.
Regarding both the judiciary and the CBI, it is again the political class which is a bad influence on them.
The powers at the centre, uses the CBI to do its hatchet job and act according to its dictates.
The political class too tries to instal a committed judiciary.
We have seen lately how the judges who have given favourable judgement for Modi and Amit Shah have been rewarded.
A lawyer who held their briefs has been promoted to the Supreme Court and a Supreme Court Chief Justice who gave a favourable decision has been made Governor in Kerala and the same judge has been made chariman of NHRC so that Modi's strangling of Human Rights in India is not questioned just as they were not questioned in Gujarat.
And Mr. Jailtley talks of "imperfect judiciary"
