Marriage is a business- Service Tax

Louis L amour an old western writer ( used to write on the wild west) used to say that there is no dearth of good people but normally the voice is not loud. Congratulations on your bold suggestion.

Dear Madhukar,

I know you through your scholarly papers published in print and n web. Here also i read your post with all my mind as your posts are always well thought out and full of wisdom. Thanks for your kind comments.

Regarding your comments "voice is not loud", you are right. But from my side I have always spoken very loudly and clearly. Some of my papers in ELT (dont have citations off hand)- have always expressed the views of fairness and justice. Some of the papers are,

-Assessee's Right against delay

-Right to consult and advocate during interrogation

- Admissibility of recorded statement

-Let us kill all the lawyers

-Salary, corruption and accountability

-CESTAT responsibility for its judgment

On these papers i have always raised the issues, loudly-clearly-and logically. I feel the business & industrial community, who is generating wealth and income for the nation is always treated shabbily.

I express myself, for what i think to be just and fair. But real initiative has to come from business community itslef, which is lacking. Till that happen, such injustices will continue.
