Respected Experts,
Kindly advice me in this case.
One of my friend who is a social activist and he had made several complains to Income Tax Departments and other Government Institute against coal mafia and the anti social activities and also made a Public Interest Litigation case in High Court in 2009. After that Income Tax Department had served him a notice after 5 years of the complain u/s 131 & 133(6) of Income Tax Act 1961 to produce documents and evidence and physical presence before Assistant Director of Income Tax (Investigation), and asking to produce the documents which will prove that the alleged coal mafia has evade the tax and his source of income is not traceable or he had violate any of the provision of Income Tax Act. Under Such circumstance being a Whistle blower and responsible citizen of country he had done his duty, then why the Income Tax Department want his presence before Assistance Director (Investigation), The Department should investigate the case and find out the truth on the complain instead of harassing the complainant.
Please provide your valuable advice in this regard and is there any way to get rid over the complain because he is suffering from mental pressure by complaining to the Department because Instead of investing the Department asking him to provide a strong reason to capture the evader of tax i.e. Coal Mafia.
Thanking you.
