Nagpur, Feb 3 (IBNS): While hearing a case regarding embezzlement of funds, Justice Arun Chaudhari remarked that taxpayers should refuse to pay taxes through a non-operation movement if the government fails to curb corruption, according to media reports.
The Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court was hearing a case concerning embezzlement of funds worth Rs 385 crore in the  Lokshahir Annabhau Sathe Vikas Mahamandal (LASVM), an organisation that was set up for the welfare of the Matang scheduled caste community.
 
According to local media reports, Justive Chaudhuri identified corruption as a 'hydra-headed monster' and said that it is time that citizens come together to tell the government that they had enough.
