Instead of blaming CPI(M) here, you may go to the office of Kerala Taxes and paste a protest poster on their board.
Last time I checked, Kerala has a CPIM government, and they have a policy which says.
"6.6 Technology: Standards are very important in the integration of e-governance services of various Government organisations. Open standards like Unicode and Open Document Format and Open Architectures will be followed in e-governance projects to avoid total dependence on select vendors."
http://keralaitmission.org/web/main/ITPolicy-2007.pdf
and now they mandate use of a proprietary format (Microsoft Excel). So what do you say about it?
Or is the "office of Kerala Taxes" run by the central government?
This may enable some of the FSFI board members to hide their inefficiencies and malpractices by reaching to you for a protest gathering against alleged manhandling.
This doesn't even deserve a reply.
