Public Statement: The Call for Social Audit and Administrative Accountability

In a democracy that prides itself on transparency, silence has become the loudest form of denial. Letters sent two months ago to the departments of CGST, DGGI, and Income Tax (Rajasthan) seeking clarification on harassment, procedural opacity, and citizen grievance remain unanswered. Such indifference is not administrative delay—it is an erosion of public trust.

When the protectors of fiscal integrity turn evasive, the taxpayers become the victims of an invisible bureaucracy. The rhetoric of Ease of Doing Business collapses into a theatre of harassment, where compliance becomes persecution and grievance becomes futility. Every unanswered letter is a document of negligence, every unacknowledged voice a wound on democratic accountability.

Therefore, we assert the urgent necessity of a comprehensive Social Audit—a transparent, citizen-inclusive evaluation of:

procedural fairness in assessments and summons,

transparency in taxpayer grievance redressal,

the ethical conduct of field officers, and

the accountability mechanisms within CGST, DGGI, and Income Tax (Rajasthan).

A Social Audit is not an act of rebellion—it is the resurrection of responsibility. It ensures that taxation serves justice, not intimidation; governance serves people, not procedures. Silence must no longer be a shield for misconduct.

We demand immediate acknowledgment, public disclosure of pending grievance responses, and initiation of a third-party social audit under civic and institutional oversight.

Because when governance hides behind silence, citizens must speak through scrutiny.
