Manu said that higher the station in life..the stiffer the fine and punishment for a crime committed by king or top person who gets the rules and regulations implemented. It is observed that MCD due to obvious reasons is shirking in its responsibility to collect legitimates dues, be it on account of approval of mobile phone towers or property tax. But our authorities are not shy of putting their hands in the pockets of poorest of persons to enhance property and other taxes. While disposing of second appeal , CIC(CENTRAL INFORMATION COMMISSION ) directed that guide line to approve location of mobile phone towers be put up on web site of MCD for information of all concerned.
MCD admitted that out of around 4500 towers throughout DELHI, around 2500 have been been in service without any clearance. Mobile service were introduced in 1995 and rupees one lac fee per tower was to be deposited by service providers. Imagine colossal loss caused by corrupt officers and staff who looked other wise, flouted existing rules and regulations and the greed of multi national companies who made quick buck by way of sale of air time. This happened in NOIDA and this happened in DELHI.
I was appearing along with the complainant Sh.Karam Chand when appeal his second appeal was heard and allowed. MCD was directed to identify staff who was responsible for allowing these mobile towers and thus causing immense financial loss to MCD. The order of CIC is available on their web site.
Similarly, MCD is lax to see that at least educational institutes follow MCD RULES regarding adherence to the very purpose for which plot of land is allotted. In case land is allotted for primary school around 1990—1991 and there after school building comes up for ten plus school and professional courses are run besides construction of residential complexes, then there is need to wake up. I am referring to the case of Universal Public School Preet Vihar.
Incidently CCN NEWS HAD INTERVIEWED THE THEN AREA COUNCILLOR SH.RAMESH PANDIT, SCHOOL PRINCIPAL and my self and covered it as a news item on 22/09/2006 on TV CHANNEL. PGC already closed this case by directing SDM PREETVIHAR (DY.COMMISSIONER EAST DELHI ADMINISTRATION) to take cogninance under relevant criminal code and get the public road vacanted from Universal Public School, PREET VIHAR NEW DELHI 110092.
PGC is reviewing status on 12 th april 2010 and have directed dy.commissioner shahdara south zone to file status report through their engineers who have been directed to be present on said date at 3PM.

DELHI is the capital of India. I do not know what type of example we are setting for others to follow.
