Dear Policy
Makers :
I just came
across following news report:

Financial Intelligence Unit to generate reports
on black money suspects in 72 hours
( Source : Economic Times / 22 Nov 2015 )
NEW DELHI:
Government has
bolstered the capabilities of the elite Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU),
which can now dish out volumes of data on suspicious transactions in 72-hours
flat and gain access to
" secret database of
offenders maintained by various law
enforcement
agencies in the country. "
Earlier, when an agency wanted to get any information on financial transactions and other similar details on entities on its scanner the time taken used to be between a fortnight to 20 days.
The elite financial snoop wing under the Union Finance Ministry has switched to
Earlier, when an agency wanted to get any information on financial transactions and other similar details on entities on its scanner the time taken used to be between a fortnight to 20 days.
The elite financial snoop wing under the Union Finance Ministry has switched to
full
electronic mode for exchange of data,
from the earlier existing paper-based pattern,
with all probe and enforcement agencies of the country like the Income Tax department,
CBI, ED, DRI and Intelligence Bureau among others, beginning November 1.

Thank you
for listening - and acting on my following suggestion , sent to you sometime

Can e-Governance help eliminate corruption ?
Most certainly
Look at the following , partial list of Central and State
Agencies set up to fight fraud , money-laundering , corruption , tax-evasion ,
economic crimes etc :
* Public Accounts
Committee (
PAC )
* Central
Vigilance Commission (
CVC )
* Central
Information Commission ( CIC )
* Research and
Analysis Wing
( RAW )
* Serious Fraud
Investigation Office ( SFIO )
* Information
Bureau
( IB )
* Economic Offence
Wing
( EOW )
* Central Bureau
of Investigation ( CBI )
* Department of
Revenue Intelligence ( DIR )
* Comptroller and
Auditor General ( CAG )
* Anti Corruption
Bureaus ( States ) ( ACB )
* Enforcement
Directorate
( ED )
* Lok
Ayukts (
States )
* Lok
Pal (
Central )
Despite such an army of Agencies , how do corrupt manage to get
away ?
Or , in case caught , manage to delay delivery of punishment for
years ?
No doubt , there must be several reasons , including , inter -
agency rivalry to get credit - something difficult to eliminate altogether
But , I believe , the most important reason is :
Lack of a COMMON / COMPUTERIZED database of all offences / cases / persons
being investigated,
- which is readily " Accessible " to all of these
Agencies , all over the country ( 24 * 365 )
Already , every Agency compiles huge dossiers on " Suspects
" in its own
" Departmental Database " , which is never
shared with other Agencies ,
leading to ,
* Huge amount of duplication of efforts /
information
* Fractured / scattered profiles of " Suspects
"
* Enormous waste of time / resources
What will help ?
* Dismantling of
individual departmental databases
* Merging of all
Agency-wise databases into a SINGLE / UNIQUE database
* All Agencies to
enter their findings / data / info into this COMMON
database , with nothing preserved on local
computers
* All data-entry FORMS to
be ONLINE .
No paper forms at all
* All local
computers connected to ultra-secure Network ( Encrypted )
* " Access
Rights " to individuals , based on Biometric Identification
Will BJP want to make this , a prominent promise in their
Poll-Manifesto , likely to be released on 7th April ? ( Congress
/ AAP missed this boat ! )
It is high time political parties stop talking of motherhood in
vague terms and start telling the voters ,
" If you vote us to power , this is precisely what we will
do , to bring about E-GOVERNANCE - and do it within 6 months of assuming power "
