Imagine having donated in sovereign scheme under promise of anonymity. And now all the data has been revealed. Removes complete trust on our laws and systems. Unreal third world stuff. Why do they want to be anonymous though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes them vulnerable, just like Furure Gaming bosses be feeling now. Edited March 26 by mishra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going after Future Gaming now would be bad move because everyone will know why it happened. Voting is different. I'm not asking for any preferential treatment based on my vote.

Oh, you don’t need ED/IT to eff up Future Gamiing. Just some twisting of regulations can drastically reduce its capacity to operate or donate. Just like you voting, same logic can go as to a donor don’t want inept gvmnt or preferential treatment either so it’s helping political party which it feels is good for his Business . Hence, SC in its judgment didn’t rely on preferential treatment but RTI. I see the point “for and against “ anonymity of donations, And I think benefits of “for” outweighs “against” as we need adaptation of Banking system in political donation. If Black money provides anonymity, Black money it is for Businesses. They don’t want to be seen supporting a party.

Its nothing unique. Its the same in US. Some donate openly. Some are discrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So thats not how culpability can be established in the real world. I also donated to BJP few years back and AAP before that. Is there a quid pro quo ? Political parties have way more ways to get donation. They dont have to promise something always. Plus its up to you to establish the linkage.
