Corruption case on anti-corruption

Reported on November 20, 2012 from Mangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #33455

I am a government official working in commercial tax department in Mangalore. I have detected several cases of tax evasions. But the sorry part of my story is that the department itself is hand in glove with the clandestine transporters and traders. e.g., for the last 15 years I am fighting single handedly against tax evasion in arecanut. Arecanut is a crop grown maninly in Karntaka and Kerala but 90% is consumed in North India. Due to lack of proper check psots and other vigilance activities in North India arecanut is being smuggled in large scale to evade VAT. The transporters play a vital role in this evasion. I have tried my level best to curb the evasion but I failed becuase there are 48 officers who are against me. My house was stoned and I was booked on a false complaint and I was about to be arrested but luckily I obtained anticipatory bail by spending Rs.20000/- to the lawyer. This amount is still not reimbursed by the Government. Now a false complaint has been filed to the Lokayukta and shortly they may raid my house and may damage my reputation by putting false allegations. I am not frightened. I only need assistance from general public who can come to my rescue when I am troubled for my honesty. I can exchange any amout of statistics to show that how the fence is eating the crop. I request the users of this site to send their support to me so that I can unveil the corruption thread bear. If properly supported I can reveal certain things which of course being I am an offical should be kept confidential. Let truth prevail; let good sense prevail upon our officers and officials. I was able to type this letter today because my driver who always wanted avoid doing duty as there is no extra income by working with me has put leave deliberately. Mind you with a paltry salary he is constructing his fourth house.
