INDIA -the most corrupt nation
Today, India is one of the most corrupt nations.....thanks to our bureaucrats and officials of several government deptts. As per one of the reports, India Has slipped 13 places on the global transparency index, indicating a rise in corruption levels. No wonder indeed !
Today, our country has gone to the dogs due to rampant corruption in each & every field. From birth certificates to schools admissions and professional course admissions, from rations cards to railway tickets, from gas connection to re-connection, in octroi, sales tax, income tax, telephone and electricity departments, RTO & police deptts., from admission and treatment in and even in discharge from public hospitals to obtaining (hold your breath !) death certificates too, and to get your own money against your bills for supplies made/ services rendered to departments, one can get the necessary work done only if the officials and the staff concerned are "duly taken care of ". You name the department and the kind of work to be got done, you will not escape the "devil of corruption" in the process.
There is no morality and honesty to speak of at all today. Just recollect those cases wherein several top notch bureucrats and even ministers had been raided and found to be in possession of disproportionate assets worth crores of rupees. These officials and bureaucrats and those at the helm of the affairs, are real corrupt people who rob the exchequer of crores and are hoarders of black money worth crores of rupees. And we have never heard of any such officials being punished and put behind bars (like in Saudi Arabia, Korea, Japan etc...)?
The year 2010 had been termed the year of "Scams, scandals and corruption". I need not elaborate ....but to name a few which involved lakhs of crores of rupees in scams like, the CWG Scam, 2G Spectrum scam which involved none other than the Telecom Minister himself, ********** society scam in which the martyrs & the families of our soldiers were let down and many many more.
The need of the hour is to form a vibrant union of well-known, selfless, honest, sincere and dedictaed personalities, to totally weed out corruption. The legal process should not be cumbersome and the law must be flexible while dealing with the corrupt. All acts of Corruption must be treated as a "non-bailable offence", attachment of all wealth & properties of the corrupt, to begin with.
Just catch hold of topmost corrupt people who have swindled the exchequer of crores of rupees, the Finace minister can get as much revenue & assets, by bringing out these black money; he then need not impose any fresh taxes at all; rather the deficit in the nation's budget can get wiped out.
By the by....revolutions like the one we witness for the past so many days in Egypt, for change in leadership & Govt., may become necessary in other countries too....say if corruption becomes unmanageable and dangerous for the people. If leaders do not take a lesson or two from such protests, one day people would certainly come to the streets to demand clean leaders, end to corruption, punishment to corrupt and yearn for clean administration.
