    There must be a separate independent team of 1000 ACB people, one team to raid daily and other ones to scrutinize the documents daily. Only then the corruption can be reduced.

    This is a repeat pattern. Always the govt employees taking bribes. best remedy is to make the punishment severe so that they are deterred. just fines will not do. Lock the up at least for 10 years.

    Easiest way out is join BJP and all charges will be dropped. This has been shown to be true in Mumbai, West Bengal etc., etc.

    Single site reequirements under urban development authorities is a main source for bribe. Government should streamline this process under revenue department. Another source of corruption is of surveyers. If you do not pay them bribe, they purposely mark less area under your account. If you notice later, they ask you to claim through district survey authorities. If you do not have money to bribe, you keep quite.

    Why so late? Just by seeing the mansion & valuating it will be much much beyond their income, forget other assets! These type of raids conducted routinely seem to be only for book entries, an eyewash!

    central government must withdraw all cash transactions and circulations of notes Rs50 and above. let all people make digital payments and for poor and laborers issue social security cards or at present use adhaar. Then no raids of advertisements are required and all transactions are accounted for under the present system. there is no will in government and administration.

    Whether you call it corruption or anything else.... but everybody knows about their wealth & income.... The question is why this raid??? May be portion of the money is not moved to the proper destination on time??? Or may be to increase the timely contribution after learning their recent Income??? Sometime even corruption money too makes the economy working..... because these people can't invest legally....so they will indulge in benami property purchase or construction of mall or complex etc.... This will benefit some Construction Company whereby increasing the employment opportunity indirectly too.... As long this money is not going outside country.... let them do whatever they want since Govt can't control that..... but at least they need to do their duty towards general public without any excuse....

    Most of them might have reached this position by bribing politicians or higher officials. You are raided because you forgot your corrupt roots. Its obvious they will envy you more than anyone else if you don't pay them back.
