government should catch the big fish
After Malegaon’s additional collector Yashwant Sonawane was killed by the oil adulteration mafia last week, the police have been cracking down on culprits across the state. But Leena Mehendale, a former bureaucrat who had filed a detailed report on fuel adulteration in the state as far back as 1995-96, said that while the crackdown is necessary, it is not sufficient.
“But I am hopeful the chief minister will do something to curb the oil mafia,” said Mehendale, who was the Nashik divisional commissioner when she prepared the report. Manmad and Malegaon are part of the Nashik division. More than 15 years and seven chief ministerial changes later, the measures suggested by Mehendale to check the mafia have not been implemented.
Apart from taking strict action against the people who attacked Sonawane, Mehendale feels that that police should probe deeper.
“Most of the time, the police arrest only the local footmen and not the main people who run the racket,” she said. According to Mehendale, the government should learn a lesson from this incident and take long-term measures. “The government should have set up a cell in Mantralaya for officers to submit reports on oil adulteration rackets. The cell could have done proper follow-ups instead of dumping the reports. The cell could comprise revenue, food and supply, and police officials. The cases should be sent to fast-track courts,” said Mehendale.
She added: “It is important that inspecting officers get the right to file a case against the dealer in the court. Or they should submit all documents and samples collected from dealers to the police for investigation.” She added that the government’s move to use a chemical marker to check kerosene diversion will not work, as no car or bike owner will test the fuel to find if it is adulterated. “Once the government catches the big fish, the problem will be solved,” she said.
She also suggested that government officers should get upgraded training. “We have to boost officers’ morale. After the chief secretary’s assurance immediate action will be taken on officers’ reports on such incidents, I am hopeful that we can tackle the problem. If there is political will, we can easily curb the racket.”

Has Yashwant Sonawane become a martyr?
On 25th January 2011, Additional Collector Yashwant Sonawane was burnt to death by Petrol adulteration mafia people, when he had gone to check a spot, where he felt some suspicious happening. On the same day, news about this ghastly incident was reported on all the news channels. It was described as the 'most disgraceful act' to happen on the eve of country's Republic day.
On 27th January almost all the Marathi news channels argued through their debate shows about the protection received from Politicians by the Petrol adulteration mafias. As expected, IBN-Lokmat in their Aajcha Sawal raised this issue. In this programme, BJP leader Vinod Tawde made an allegation that such people involved in petrol adulteration have their direct links with concerned ministry in Mantralaya. He also named one of the ministers and also named two persons who delivered money to Mantralaya to get certain exemptions.
Simultaneously, we saw the Government carrying out raids on some of the outlets where sand and oil mafias were operative at other places in Maharashtra. But, it was just an eyewash, pointed majority of the speakers, including the viewers. This time, however IBN-Lokmat had sent their representative to get news from Manmad and to the surprise of everyone, she reported that no such raids were carried out in and around Manmad. And that was enough of evidence to expose our system? The attack from different sections was mainly on the high profile Minister from Nashik and obviously the Home Minister of the state, for not acting tough against such acts of criminals.
On Friday 28th January, former IAS officer Leena Mehendale who spoke on one of the news channels, made it very clear that in 1995-96 she had given a detailed report on fuel adulteration and had suggested that petrol and kerosene agencies should not be awarded to the same individual that makes the adulterators' task easier. However, no action has been taken yet on that report, either by the State or the Centre. Will the case be handed over to CBI, still remains a question; but the public anguish is too much this time, with even all the state government servants protesting strongly to take stern action not only against the people who have been caught, but also their main operators, behind the curtain. Ms. Mehendale too was of the opinion that the Big fish should be caught and punished.
