CHANGE/ ACTION
DESIRED :
To
mobilize the need of about Rs. 30,000 Crores for education we must exert
pressure to channelize the cast reservoir of Black-money.
This
can be accomplished by allowing people/ trust to invest in Educational
Institutions. For such investments/ donations no questions should be asked
with regard to source of income. Further, such investments must be allowed a
return of 5% for 10 tears (exempted from tax) and thereof after 10 % return
with maximum tax- liability pegged at 50% of the profits made.

ADVANTAGES EXPECTED :
-
The resources gap with be bridged

The “black-money” will get invested in constructive, nation- building,
human-resource development oriented activity – a very noble purpose.
