Misuser of Public Funds

                              Misuser of Public Funds

       I am appalled at the misuser of Public Funds in releasing BHARAT NIRMAN ads  on almost all the channels of electronic media, in every print media and on every nook and corner of Delhi costing thousands of Crores to the Public Exchequer.My information's are  that the funds are being released by GOI.If the funds are released by any political party comprising of UPA, then I have to say nothing.These ads carry the photos of PM as well as Mrs.Sonia Gandhi.PM heads the Gvt. of India, so he has every authority to speak for the Government but then why Photo of Chairperson of UPA is being carried.
          It is obvious that these ads are meant to influence the voters in 2014 Parliamentary election but the GOI is not going to contest the election.Only political parties are going to contest the election.Then why GOI is releasing the funds and whether the GOI have taken authorization from the Parliament in accordance with Arts.107 to 117 of the Constitution relating to Parliamentary procedure to seek release of funds from Consolidated Fund.The above Constitutional provisions lay down that all Gvt.expenses shall be charged from the Consolidated Fund on motion passed by the House Of People( Look Sabha ).I doubt very much that any motion has been passed by Lok Sabha in this regards as they do not relate to either the salaries of Constitutional  Authorities nor does it relate to other expenses of running the government.I am also not sure whether there is any budgetary allocations for this purpose as the expenses do not pertain to any public good or benefit the people at large.
             These ads only help the party in power to promote itself in the ensuring elections.But then why should the GOI spend for the benefit of a political party in power.The party in power has huge funds collected from many sources  running into thousands of crores which is not even within the purview of RTI.Why the political party not spend from its own funds for its own political prospect?
             After all, public revenues are collected through coercive methods from the public by imposing direct and indirect taxes.Those persons who have taxable income pay Income Tax,those who don't not have taxable income,also pay taxes indirectly by paying excise etc.The funds collected from the people are pooled into Consolidated funds which are used for public purpose for the benefits of the people.
              Should such Public Funds be allowed to be used for such purposes such as promoting the interest of a political party?
