FRAMING OF CHARGES AGAINST SH. VIRBHADRA SINGH AND HIS WIFE PRATIBHA SINGH IN C.D. CASE..... RESIGNATION FROM THE UNION CABINET.

                      The framing of charges in a judicial process against Sh. Virbhadra Singh, former five time Chief Minister, Himachal Pradesh and Cabinet Minister in the Union of India by a Trial Special Court ( Forests) Shimla in C.D. converasation between him, his wife Pratibha Singh and a deseased bureaucrat Mr. Mohinder Lal has come as a surprise to the people of Himachal Pradesh. The Audio cassette was prepared during 1989-90 and lateron it was converted into C.D. This all happened due to a political mistake done by Mr. Virbhadra Singh during his rule from 2003 to 2007 when he remained as Chief Minister of the State. During downsizing of the cabinet, he took decision to withdraw Mr. Vijai Singh Mankotia, from the State Cabinet and as a revengeful act, all this happened. If Mr. Virbhadra Singh could have dropped Mr. Singhi Ram another Cabinet Minister, from Rampur, District Shimla, this type of happening could have been avoided and the stage at which now Mr. Virbhadra Singh stand , never have come. With the framing of the charges against him and his wife by a trial court, he has to step down from the Union Ministery too. This not only a loss to the State of Himachal Pradesh particularly but a major political set back to Mr. Virbhadra Singh and his family. The detractors within the congress party in Himachal Pradesh , might be very happy with these happenings but they could not speak as a part of the party discipline. Whereas the question of the B.J.P. rule in the state during 2007/8 till to day, had tried from the very begining to put on hard Mr. Virbhadra Singh as he is the only congress Senior Leader in the State who can give defeat to the B.J.P. in the coming Vidhan Sabha Election during 2012 end. They thought that if Mr. Virbhadra Singh is out of seen in the State , they may be able to win the 2012 elections comfortably. But they should not forget that Mr. Virbhadra Singh is a shurewed poltician and he will never sit silent and will try to manage defeat of the B.J.P. during these elections. The question of Major Vijai Singh Mankotia is concerned, he may be right in taking revenge from Sh. Virbhadra Singh as his political carrier has also been destroyed with his withdrawal as Minister from the State Cabinet by Mr. Virbhadra Singh then Chief Minister. He managed to get the C.D. from one Mr. Mohinder Lal , retired and now deseased I.A.S. Officer, who remained Deputy Commissioner, of Shimla District for more then 7 years and after that Director of Industries, H.P. He was quite close to Mr. Virbhadra Singh and had been managing every thing for the Chief Minister, his wife and family by hoock and crook. Mr. Vijai Singh Mankotia , had to left the Congress and had to join the B.S.P. during 2007 and fought elections from Dharamshala on B.S.P. ticket as a Chief Ministerial candidate but he lost the election badly . After that he took " Sanayas " from the poltics. But now when the charges framed in C.D. case against Sh. Virbhadra Singh and his wife Ms. Pratibha Singh, resignation from the Union Ministry , again he seems to be active in poltics in the State. This was a case of corruption of political life detacted with the broad casting of C.D. during 2007 elections by Major ( Retd) Vijai Singh Mankotia. No body can deny the poltical and bureaucratic corruption in the State. However, if the matter is taken up by the C.B.I. at its own and raids are conducted against the present and ex Ministers, Chief Ministers and present bureaucrates and ex-bureaucractes, a huge un counted wealth, property moveable and immoveable will be detacted which has been made by all of them by unfair means and is disproporationate to their real source of income. The debt of the State which has now reached to the tune of about Rupees 30 thousands crores, could be cleared in a day if the money , property made by all such people by unfair means when they remained in power.
