This query is : Resolved
What is the relevance of unrealisable 25 lacs fine for defrauding state exchequer of 950 crores in fodder scams 2~3 decades ago? Such meagre fine is not even a fraction of even the interest of the drained out public funds ? How can our judiciary order recovery of the proven amounts of scams from such convicted politicians ? Why do the sentences under different penal provisions have to be suffered simultaneously which thus makes the sentences mearged into one e.g. 5 years under 120(B) and another 5 years under PRA should mean 10 years to suffer in jail for the convicted ?

Only the wisdom of the judge can prevail in view of the evidence adduced and pleadings of both the parties.

No specific query, this is not a proper Forum to discuss the same.

Very valid questions you have raised which i too have.Legislatures have very well exploited the word called democracy keeping people deprived of their rights.In such situations, as is one here, all property of the convict must be taken over by the state
and should be auctioned to realize the loss caused to exchequer,which is public money,if the Constitution has to be respected,and 'we People of India' has to be understood supreme in true sense.

Probably, "Mera Bharat Mahaan" is considered only on account of these typical instances created by our leaders!!

There is no such provision in law as on day and without provision, the judge cannot make his own law taking over entire property of such convict for State.

Is it that Police can attach any criminal's property but not the judge ?
Recently, absconding criminals' property was sealed by Police !

police can attach criminals property only on orders of court.

That means the Courts can order attachment of such criminals who have caused huge financial loss to the exchequer by misappropriating public funds for their own gains ?
