Income Tax officials carried out simultaneous raids on the residences and
offices of Malayalam superstars Mammootty and Mohanlal in Kerala, Tamil Nadu and
Karnataka.
But is the act justifiable? Had the stars amassed wealth disproportionate to their known
sources of income? And even if the complaints were true, would this act be worthy enough to receive much media attention? Can everyone claim that their hands are clean? Should Tax evasion receive equal hype as corruption? Is our Tax money, rightly used by the government?
