Padmanabhaswamy temple audit a difficult task, will do it sincerely: Vinod Rai - The Hindu
Temple audit
This
refers to the initial response of former CAG Shri Vinod Rai on being identified
to head the team auditing the accounts and assets of Padmanabhaswami Temple at
Thiruvananthapuram.
In Bhagavat Gita there
is a stanza ending "...Sambhavaami yuge, yuge". Remembered this,
finding that we can still trust in ultimate justice. The seriousness with which
the Apex Court approached this issue and the cooperation the system is getting
from people like Vinod Rai testifies that there is a possibility of setting
things right.
Having said this, one
is sadly aware that the likes of Seshan, Sreedharan and Vinod Rai are not given
the respect they deserve by the society. We need many more statesmen of their stature, who are among us, to come forward and lead us. If the trust deficit is
to be made up, 'WE THE PEOPLE'(Refer PREAMBLE of Indian Constitution) should behave with more responsibility to
protect the resources which belong to the society and to ensure that every
citizen enjoys the rights and privileges enshrined in the Constitution.
