Generally, for the calculations the latest equipment the calculator is being used by children to adults nowadays but when the term calculator in the times of yore was not available for the people thought were able to calculate up to the thousands of crores numerical digits easily.

I think that if we want to compare the personality cum distinctiveness of the olden days as compared to today, you will surely agree with me on the fact and subject that both the personality and the particularity of the individuals were working properly and very strongly.

Your experience of accuracy in business and banking in those days would be as clear in perspective as mine and after the advent of the calculator era, it kept on compelling me to wonder why in today's modern era, everyone's accounts are tampered with so much fraud. Many people, like me, are naturally very concerned about the future of the economy.

Explore the most notorious financial frauds in India, from Ponzi schemes to banking scams. Learn how these massive deceptions impacted the economy and affected millions of Indian people. You should not lose your memory, most commonly the adventures in the history of scams and scandals that reveal the truth and existence of the work attitude of the government sector under the umbrella of the law-making agency the Indian parliament.

The large and very infamous scams and scandals like as BOFORS Scandal – Rs. 64 Crore, Fodder Scam – RS. 950 Crore, Harshad Mehta & Ketan Parekh Stock Market Scam – Rs. 5000 crores, Vijay Mallya Scam – Rs. 9000 Crore, Commonwealth Games Scam – Rs. 70,000 crores, Nirav Modi PNB Bank fraud – Rs. 11,400 Crore, 2G Spectrum Scam – Rs. 1,76,000 crores, Hawala Scam – 1, 31,000 Crores, Coalgate Scam – Rs. 1.86 lakhs Crore, AgustaWestland chopper scam – Rs. 3600 Crore, Satyam scam – Rs. 14,000 crores, Black Money Scam – Rs. 72,80,000 Crore, has been heard and learned by everyone but no anyone has still yet to make his trials and efforts to calculate on calculator about the total financial loss to the people of India due to elected by them their representatives in the house of commons after the independence from British rule and after the invasion of Aurangzeb in India.

The uproar over the recent arrest of MLA Mehraj Malik in Doda district under the Public Safety Act is yet to subside and strong protests are continuing in Doda district as well as other cities of the state, so much so that the government has had to make tight security arrangements in Doda district to avoid the any untoward incident in the state of Jammu and Kashmir.

You all must be knowing that there is a lot of difference between conduct and business. We do not know what kind of language the public representative Maharaj Malik used due to which the police had to take him into custody under the Public Safety Act.

The interesting and thought-provoking thing here is that despite so many big scams being exposed across the country, why has no guilty involved person or public representative been arrested till date for violation of the PSA Act? More dangerous than the indecent use of language are the people involved in scams and bribery.

The chapters of our constitution clearly state that there is surety under the Articles 102(1) and 191(1) for disqualification of a member of Parliament and a member of the Legislative Assembly respectively.

The second prescription of disqualification is in the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution. This provides for the disqualification of the members on grounds of defection; the third prescription is under The Representation of The People Act (RPA), 1951. There are several provisions that deal with disqualification under the RPA. Section 8 of the RPA deals with disqualification for conviction of offences. Section 8(1) of the act includes specific offences such as promoting enmity between two groups, bribery, and undue influence or personation at an election. Section 8(2) lists offences that deal with hoarding or profiteering, adulteration of food or drugs and for conviction and sentence of at least six months for an offence under any provisions of the Dowry Prohibition Act. Section 8(3) disqualifies a convicted person who has been sentenced to imprisonment for not less than two years.

As per the readable chapters of scams and scandals the Article Section 9: Disqualification for dismissal for corruption or disloyalty. Section 9(A): Disqualification for Government contracts, etc. Section 10: Disqualification for office under Government company. Section 10(A). Disqualification for failure to lodge account of election expenses. Section 11: Removal or reduction of period of disqualification. Section 11(A): Disqualification arising out of conviction and corrupt practices.

Despite knowing all this, no one among us is asking the question why the people responsible for so many big scams in our country are still beyond the reach of police and why the Public Safety Act has been and is being openly violated. Will the government issue a white paper on this?

That we could not have even imagined and the specialty and helplessness of our country and its people is such that despite direct live through tv channels from the House of Commons and discussions on scandals and daily hue and cry, the looted money of the people of India has not been recovered till date and neither can we expect to be its return. The people of India are being forced to keep quiet or mum on the issue of scams and scandals viz a viz related to act of bribery continuously carried on in the government offices is also a violation of public safety act.

If we pull down the curtain of the drama once again, our eyes will be wide open as we will see a completely different scene in front of our eyes which will leave you astonished like me that despite all this, in which world are we and where are we standing? Actually, the scams are getting smarter every day in our life and like such frauds are designed to make you panic and act quickly and once you do, your money is gone, and so is the scammer just like as RAI Impersonation Scams in India,Digital Arrest Scams in India, False Family Member Arrest Scam,Fake Customs Parcel Scam / Fedex Scam in India, KYC Update Scams in India,No-Interest Loan with Mandatory Insurance Scam, Money Multiplier Scams in India,Gold Investment Scams in India,Dormant Insurance Policy Revival Scams in India,QR Code Scams in India,SIM Card Suspension Scam, Power Bill Non-Payment SMS Scam,Fake Job Offers Scam,Investment Scam,Online Shopping Scam, Lottery and Prize Scam,Tech Support Scam,

Yes, besides this, pushing us into a situation of inflation and the day-to-day increasing quantity of fake food items which includes spices etc,is also against the Public Safety Act of law. I found solutions You do Click on the calculator with zoom say thanks to PSA.
