COMMON INJUSTICE

Every month when a common man receives his pay cheque from his office, the Government has already taken a part of your income as Income Tax. After 15 months, the common man has to file his Income tax returns with the Government begging them to take a reasonable amount and return the balance, usually 75-80% of the amount Government has already taken from him. After this, The Government takes its own sweet time to refund that money to the concerned person. So Government takes ones money before 30 months and still thinks whether to return it to him. What an injustice?.Why are we Indians put to such hardships?. And then there are rules which are one way, favorable to the Government, inimical to the common man.

Likewise, all payments to Government such as Road Tax, Property Tax, Excise & Customs Duty, Sales Tax, Service Tax and other types of taxes are collected in advance.After payment of all these, still the common man does not get anything in return.

Collecting service tax for such services like telephone calls, Insurance premium payments, hospital bills, educational tutorial fees are nothing but absurd.

Railway ministry cannot provide a train ticket to the common man to travel in peace. He is charged exhorbitant premium amount in the form of Tatkal booking to provide him a seat. The booking agents take advantage of this and with or without the connivance of the Railway staff make hay. The irony of it, common man is slapped with a bigger tatkal bill to keep out the touts ( they say!!!). 

But in the Parliament, the ministers help themselves to largesse with no encumberances. They have huge salaries, free perks and power to earn more.
