DUTY TO PAY TAX

I have come across the view of Anant Kumar that the Duty to Pay Tax should be included under article 51A of the Indian Constitution as the fundamental duty of all citizens and even Swaran Singh Committee constituted for Fundamental duties had recommended it to include.I support this view but there is one demerit in making such provision..Fundamental duties shall be applied to all citizens but income tax is not paid by the poor people as it is paid after reaching to a particular level of income.Duty to pay tax can be enforced if whole indirect taxes are removed or reduced to a great extent and there is only one direct tax of 1-2 %. A lot of indirect taxes are imposed from the production of a commodity to its consumption.So all taxes should be removed or should be reduced to a great extent.These taxes are imposed arbitrarily and brutality and it increases the price of a product and it is the main reason of the inflation.Inflation can come down if these indirect taxes are removed or reduced to a great extent.Paying direct tax on overall property should be made compulsory to all by removing or largely reducing indirect taxes and thereafter,it should be mandatory for all citizens to pay tax i.e. Duty to pay tax.

Explanation 2 after proviso of the section 375 of the IPC should be removed which provides without any ground and logic that the sexual intercourse with or without consent with the wife above 15 years of age is not rape.If as per the same Section 375 in sixth condition ,sexual intercourse with or without consent with any woman below 18 is rape,then on what ground 15 years is especially said in the case of wife?
