Introduction
India, the country
of Veda and the holy land with a
glorious past, is home to diverse cultures and traditions the dream of Gandhi and
Nehru, and the soil that has witnessed the birth and death of many kingdoms. Incredible India has etched a niche for herself in the annals of history,
geography, international affairs, etc. A nation refers to a community of people
who share a common language, culture, ethnicity, and history and have equal
rights and duties to work for its progress. It is nationalism that creates national
identity and also builds a national future. History bears witness to the fact
that we have been able to achieve our destiny only through dedicated persons
like MK Gandhi, Subhas Ch. Bose, Pt. Nehru, Maulana Azad, Vallabhabhai Patel,Vinoba Bhabe, Bal Ganagdhar Tilak, and so on. They
aroused in us a feeling of integral nationalism, which gives every citizen
access to equal rights and duties and makes him /her aware of his/her
responsibility in the development of the nation.
But, alas! The
credibility of our country in this purpose is depleting day by day. India has
made remarkable progress in different fields, like sending satellites to the
moon(Chandrayana), testing ICBM
Agni-V nuclear-capable missile, having the second position in human resources in
the world, and is predicted to be a Super Power in the next few years. But even after 70 years of Independence we could not become a Super Power or a developed
nation. We are still developing at this crucial juncture. This is primarily
because of high pace corruption. Today’s buzzword ‘corruption’ is known to
every individual in our country. The word ‘corruption’ aptly means the moral
degradation of a person who gives undue favors to someone for monetary or
other consideration. In other words, corruption means a lack of integrity. It is
not only about bribery, it also relates to the abuse of power in the decision-making process. It is a form of behavior that deviates from ethics, morality,
tradition, and law. It is a global phenomenon that has progressively increased
over time and is now rampant and ramifying in all societies across the world.
World Bank defined ‘corruption’ as the ‘use
of public office for private gain’. In the words of John Acton “, Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts
absolutely”. Corruption in India is a consequence of the nexus between
bureaucracy, politicians, criminals, business tycoons, etc.
Corruption is
not a modern phenomenon. If you go through the pages of history it proves that
it was prevalent in the political and civic life of even the Mauryas. The great
political statesman Kautilya or Chanakya has discussed corruption in his
popular book Arthashastra. Earlier,
bribes were paid for getting the wrong things done, but now bribe is paid for
getting the right things done at the right time. Even if you have been selected as per
your merit then you have also bound to pay ransom money for your respective
jobs. It is a vicious circle that keeps going on. It does not shock Indians
anymore to know that not only the politicians, ministers, and bureaucrats are
corrupt, but even the judges of SC, eminent professors, scientists, doctors, NGOs, etc., also fit into this category. Corruption is now prevalent in almost
every section of society from grass root level to the elite. Further,
corruption has become something respectable in India, because most respectable
and privileged groups are involved in it. It has its way because everyone is
happy and no one has any problem with it. All of us break laws every day and we
also love the fact that we can do so when it is convenient for us. However,
corruption has become a carcinogenic element that can be suppressed but
uncontrolled. So far as due to the high pace of ultramodern development of the
media, corruption like carcinogenic disease is detected, getting exposed, and
investigated today.
The Role of Individuals in the fight against corruption
In the words of F. Nitzse “The surest way to corrupt a youth is
to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who
think differently.” The role of the individual in this context is very important. The role of the individual (common
man) especially the youth is also vital against widespread corruption. The
youth of every country is its valuable human resource. Young people can
play an important role in various developmental activities going on in the
country. The responsibility for change, progress, and innovation lies on their
shoulders. Youth can make or mar a society. Their energies should be directed
properly. The common man encounters corruption everywhere starting from
politics, and bureaucracy to government offices. The youth should organize
themselves from anti-corruption cells and expose the guilty. On a higher level,
they could also expose the malpractices of both politicians and public
servants. Corruption is the flavour of the season and everyone wants to fight
it. But there is a sure-shot remedy for corruption when the “corrupt” are drawn
from all sections of the people, though many of them may not even recognize
their guilt, let alone atone for it?
Let’s assume that a strong Lokpal is in place. It will
look into complaints against Central government employees. There are over 40
lakhs of them from the President of India to the postmen who reach every nook
and corner of the country. Let’s also assume that 10 percent of them are
corrupt and complaints are made against them. There will be four lakh
complaints in one year. The Lokpal should have a large set-up of incorruptible
staff to investigate such a large number of cases. From where will it bring the
requisite staff with impeccable integrity? And who will superintend the Lokpal?
One of the draft Bills says the Lokpal should be one against whom there are no
charges of corruption and who has a proven record of fighting corruption. Is
there even one IAS officer who fulfills this criterion? The Lokayuktas have been
in place for decades. Have they reduced corruption in the states?
There is an awakening among the common people against menace like
corruption. First of all, we should inculcate moral values among our
children. Because ‘today’s child is the citizen of tomorrow’. Children need to be infused with values that will stand them in good stead as they play their rightful roles as
citizens of this country. In other words, the character is what matters most in the
fight against corruption. Does a person, who violates rules and compounds his
guilt by paying bribes, have any right to speak against corruption? Those who
believe that corruption is a recent phenomenon would be disabused of such
beliefs if they read academic Upendra Thakur’s book “Corruption in Ancient India”. It flourished even in those periods
when everything was supposedly hunky-dory.
Few would have heard about the Dharma bull which
symbolizes morality. It stood on four legs in the Satya Yug that preceded the
Tretaya Yug, when it lost one leg. In the later Dwapara Yug, it lost one more
leg. In the present immoral Kali Yug, the bull stands on one leg. By now, it is
sure the poor bull would have lost even the fourth leg.
The RTI is a powerful weapon in the hands of the
people to fight corruption. Nothing rattles a bureaucrat more than a question
that would expose his wrongdoing. Little surprise, efforts are on to carve
down the right. Implementation of the RTI Act shows the need for greater
transparency. That is why, even without the Lok Pal, powerful politicians like
Suresh Kalmadi, and A Raja are now cooling their heels in Tihar Jail. Greed is
central to corruption. An IAS couple in Madhya Pradesh was found to have
amassed wealth to the tune of Rs 320 crore. Why did they need so much money? An
officer, who retires from the IAS, gets between Rs 40,000 and 50,000 as a DA-linked monthly pension. This is in a country where the per capita income of
an Indian after 20 years of economic reforms is just Rs 1750. Corruption keeps
growing in India because we, Indians, exploit one another’s weaknesses and
needs. But was this the situation always?
Chandan Mitra’s study traces the history of corruption in the
subcontinent, from the time of Kautilya to the Mughal era, the East India
Company days, and finally post-Independence India. Corruption is not as hopeless
as some people think. It can be curtailed if the right conditions are created.
Warren Hastings as Governor-General indulged in
corruption and was even tried for it. Mitra attributes the sudden drop in the
level of corruption to the introduction of the civil service to which young
men, blessed with intelligence and imbued with passion to serve in distant
lands, were recruited. Today we may not remove electric bulbs from trains
because they have been replaced by fluorescent tube lights that cannot be
fitted at home. But we will gladly throw our waste on the road, jump the red
light and pay the constable a small sum, rather than the fine that goes to the
exchequer, and buy goods without paying taxes. Yet, we want our leaders to be
as white as milk!
Greater transparency in administration, implementation
of the AADHAR Card(Unique Identification Number), quick and sure punishment for the
corrupt, exclusion of unaccounted wealth, zero-tolerance for corruption,
time-bound clearance of all files, and recognition for the honest are some of
the ways in which corruption can be fought. But it has to begin at home, with
the parents setting examples for their children. In other words, each of us
should be a one-man army to fight corruption. Are we prepared for it?
According to Transparency
International, a Berlin-based NGO, India ranks at 84th position among
the 180 countries in the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) of 2009. The least
corrupt countries are Newzealand, Denmark Sweden, and the most corrupt country are Somalia which ranks 180th India ranks 85th, China 72nd, the USA 18th, and the UK 16th in the list.
Problems, things, and situations
that water the poisonous plant of corruption are many and complex. Some of the
root causes include overpopulation, unemployment, poverty, literacy, and low
wages of government officials, human greed and longing, monopoly of the elite
class. It is no wonder that the tenet of democracy in the Indian context has
changed into a system ‘by the elite, for
the elite, and of the elite.”
Corruption is like diabetes; it can
be controlled but not altogether eliminated. It may seem to be the ultimate
truth to many of us. However; some are of the opinion that abolishing the evil
of corruption is not totally impossible to have a corruption-free state.
However, it is a highly difficult target to achieve because it would warrant
cooperation from each and every citizen, every individual and educational
institution, business institutions, and governing body right from the grass
root level to the elite class. What needs to be awakened is the inner soul and
one’s moral and ethical values.
There are some
specific measures to control the increasing corruption. The Right to
Information Act (RTI) is one of them.
Role
of RTI
It came into
existence in the year 2005. Generally, cases of corruption are either dropped on
some procedures or the progress in these cases is very slow due to using RTI.
One can put an end to using this RTI. Under this Act, one has the right to ask
the government why the road outside one’s house is not fixed and why has one
not received one’s ration card or passport as yet. One can also ask about
his/her marks secured in an examination. A number of cases are coming into the limelight at present, regarding appointments in various Govt. recruitment Boards
(i.e. SSC, UPSC etc.).
In every government department,
there is an officer appointed as Public information officer (PIO), who is
responsible for collecting the information wanted by the citizens and providing
them with the relevant information. For this, there is a nominal fee to be paid
by the applicant. The person who approaches the PIO is not required to give any
reasons or additional information other than his or her address. The rules have it that after
filing the application, the applicant must receive the information within a
stipulated period of 30 days. In case the PIO refuses to accept the application,
or if the applicant does not receive the required information within the
prescribed time, then the applicant can make a formal complaint to the
respective Information Commission, which has the power to impose a penalty up
to Rs. 25,000 on the errant PIO. The RTI is a right to be exercised by the
citizen’s interests, understanding, and willingness to make use of this powerful
right. On the other end, the public institutions that are to supply the
information should be organizationally prepared to divulge administrative
secrets as per requirements of law.
Lokpal
For the overall progress of a nation,
it is essential that the legal system and the institutions that are watchdogs for
democratic rights are required to remain constantly alert and active. The rule of
law is enforced through the parliamentary system, an open and impartial judiciary, an executive, and a free press. However, there are many weaknesses in the system
and corruption is rampant. Thus, the need for a Lokpal or Anna’s Janlokpal is
essential today. The word Lokpal means an ombudsman in India. The word has been
derived from the Sanskrit words` like (people) and ‘pala’
(protector/caretaker). Thus, Lokpal means protector of people. The concept of Lokpal
has been drawn up to wipe out corruption at all levels in the prevailing Indian
Polity. Some of the prominent features of the Bill involve the setting up of an institution,
Lokpal at the center and Lokayukta at the State level. The loss that a corrupt
person causes to the government will be recovered at the time of conviction.
The members of the Jan Lokpal Bill will be selected by the judges, citizens, and
constitutional authorities, rather than by the politicians. The Lokpal Bill
provides for filing complaints of corruption against the ministers, MPs as well
as the judges of the HCs and SCs with the ambit of Lokpal.
CVC
(Central Vigilance Commission)
Another potent
check on corruption is the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC). It was set up by
the government to advise and guide Central government agencies in the area of
vigilance. If there are any cases of corruption or any complaints thereof, then
that can be reported to the CVC, and redressal of the same can be sought. If one
has any doubt in working with CVC or regarding a particular grievance not
satisfactorily redressed, then that can also be solved using RTI Act as
suggested above.CVC also holds the responsibility of creating more awareness
among people regarding the consequences of giving and taking bribes and
corruption.
Role of
Educational Institutions to Curb-out Corruption
India, the
numero-uno country in Vedic knowledge has a glorious tradition of education. India’s ancient universities were
considered reservoirs of knowledge. The sanctified citadel-like education
sector is totally infected with corruption in our country today. Educational
institutions such as schools and colleges have also been affected by the cancer
of corruption. Reputed and big schools in most of the cities are alleged to be
taking very high donations for the admission of students. There are also
reports of certain medicals, engineering, and management institutions taking
donations for the admission of students, and manipulating the results of
examinations, all form a part of corruption. Favoritism for making the topper
among the professors of various Indian universities for their respective
departments is also a cause of concern. This can ruin the career and the future
of deserving students. I myself, a burning example of such corruption. Such type of corruption in sacred places like educational
institutions is happening in day-to-day life.
Starting with the admission to the
kindergarten schools, right up through every stage in education many key aspects of education are tainted with corruption.
The exam system is also riddled with corruption and leakage of exam
papers is a prevalent phenomenon. The introduction of self-financing colleges
and courses has in turn brought a totally different approach to education where
education has been based on mere consumption and corruption based.
A lot of complaints of corruption
even in the All India Council of Technical Education comes which plays a very key
role to play in the accreditation of technical education institutions. The
corruption involving appointments of Vice Chancellors and other authorities in the higher education system is well known. Against this background, therefore, how
can we explore the idea that sanctified places like educational institutions can
play a role in checking corruption?
Simple
Solution for Eradicating the Menace
We must
recognize that change is brought about by a phenomenon. Bertrand Russell says
that "If you hold an idea for a sufficiently long time, it becomes decent."Victor
Hugo says that "Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come." Bernard Shaw says that "The reasonable man
adjusts himself to the situation and the pervading norms lead a peaceful life
without creating any waves. The
unreasonable man wants the world to change to his way of thinking and in the
process to achieve success." We want to
think seriously and in a meaningful way about how teachers can play a role in
fighting corruption.
The importance
and influence of teachers in shaping characters are well known. Emeritus scientist,
missile-men-cum-Ex-president of India, Dr A.P.J Abdul Kalam has been the most
recent prominent articulator of this concept.
He focused on the issue of addressing students as many as he could
throughout the country. He has also
pointed out how values are shaped by our parents, our religion, our peers, and
above all our primary school teachers.
In the ultimate analysis, if we want to fight corruption, we have to
understand what corruption is and how it arises. Corruption is a lack of
intellectual, moral, or financial integrity. Generally, we think in terms of
financial integrity but intellectual integrity is particularly relevant in the
academic context.
Temptations are too much and greed
is very common. In fact, the one value which motivates people to become
corrupt is greed. Ultimately, therefore,
if we want to tackle corruption we will have to encourage in people the value
of integrity and dedication to truth and make them realize that greed is not
good. The teachers, especially the
primary school teachers who interact with the students at a very young age are in
an important position to influence values.
The question is how many of our teachers themselves are honest and
committed to teaching? How many of them
can be role models like Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan? In fact, is it possible
for teachers to play a role in fighting corruption at all?
Yes! It is possible.
Because ultimately; reform has to come from within the system. All reformers have come from the same society
which had problems. Swami Vivekananda came from our midst and so was Mahatma
Gandhi. These great leaders emerged from the same society. Everybody can not
become a Mahatma Gandhi but at least each person can live up to some basic
values of integrity. The issue of the educational institutions along with the teacher’s role in fighting corruption therefore can be looked at from two angles.
The first is the individual angle of the teacher himself. To begin with, the teacher himself must be
honest and must have a feeling that in his role as a Guru, he must become a
role model and must walk his talk. The problem in our country is that so many
people lips slogans about values but their actions deviate totally from
them. That is why, none of the leaders
today have credibility in the public instead of Anna Hazare, Arvind Kejriwal,
Ramdev, Kiran Bedi a few in this row.
There is an all-around atmosphere of skepticism. When skepticism prevails, no progress is
possible, especially when it comes to improvement and reform.
Apart from
commitment to integrity, at a personal level, a teacher who wants to fight
corruption can at least avoid many malpractices in the education system like
fraud and corruption relating to admission, examination, and so on. The scope and temptation for corruption are
very wide and pervasive. By abstaining
from at least these bad practices, a teacher can derive moral authority and credibility can influence others. The second angle of the teacher’s role in
fighting corruption is to see to what extent he can mobilize the students as a
community in fighting corruption. In
fact, there are so many activities students infused values in their minds,
like the Bharat Scouts and Guide, National Service Scheme (NSS), National Cadet
Corps (NCC), and other co-curricular activities.
The students can be motivated to study the issue of corruption and come
up with ideas on how to tackle corruption. The techniques of the mobile phone
cameras or spy pen can be used in sting operations especially to trap people in
corruption and use by the media for revealing corruption. Every teacher and the students have to decide
to what extent they can play a more active role in fighting corruption.
Think local and act global.
Family plays a
very important role in training the children. Because of the emotional nature
of the relationship between parents and children, the parents can infuse values into
the minds of the children. They can make the children learn about honesty and
in the process, they become greedy citizens and keep public morality at a
higher level. The children socialized in such a way are expected to be freed
from the temptation to be corrupt. In fact, it is well said that they can be
socialized in such a way in childhood that neither the devil even nor God can
change them.
The teaching of
moral values only prevails in religion-based institutions like those run by the
Society of Jesus or Ramakrishna Mission, Madrasa School, or Dayanand Anglo Vedic
Schools row. Apart from these institutions, there is a need for
introducing moral instruction classes, so that students are forced to think in
terms of values and the need for integrity.
The students can also be encouraged to become whistle-blowers and help
in fighting corruption. They should constantly try to inculcate the values in
students not by too much of preaching or articulation but by their actions at
every stage. Action speaks much louder
than words.
Corruption
in business
Corruption is
more pronounced in politics directly and business ultimately. It is an open
secret that every candidate has to spend crores of rupees to contest an
election for the Legislative Assembly or for the Parliament. Once elected, he
is tempted to compensate the amount spent by fair or foul means. This leads to
enormous corruption. The issue of moral integrity also arises particularly in
business.
The Coal-gate
Scam, 2G Scam, DLF Scam, and Adarsh Housing Scams are the latest to hog the limelight. A total of 122 licenses of the 2G spectrum to 85 companies were issued
including many new telecom companies with little or no experience in the
telecom at a price set in the year 2001. The issue came to light after the
auction of airwaves go 3G services which amounted to Rs.67,719 crore to the
exchequer report submitted by the CAG of India based on the money collected
from 3G licenses estimated by the loss to the exchequer due to underpricing of
2G spectrum was Rs.1,76,379. Mr. A. Raja (the then IT minister) and Kanimozhi
(MP of Rajya Sabha) are the co-accused in this issue.
The CWG (Common
Wealth Games) scam is another latest high-ranking scam in Indian business and
political history. Contracts were awarded at exorbitant rates. Mr. Suresh
Kalmadi, the main accused, was sent behind bars. One more and ever the latest big
scams are the Coal mining scam and DLF scam. In which the second UPA lead
Government headed by Dr. Manmohan Singh is probably the main accused. The trial
and sting operations are now probing. The investigations behind the recent
issues of corruption came to the limelight by an NGO, IAC (India Against
Corruption) run by Mr. Arvind Kejriwal, a well-known social activist in present
India.
Corruption is
also highly widespread in trade and commerce. Unscrupulous traders indulge in
corrupt practices like black marketing, adulteration, defilement, ruination, etc. to cheat the customers. Big business houses and multinationals amass a lot
of black money by indulging in unfair practices. In short, there is no sphere
of activity that is free from corruption.
Now, the question arises - Are our
sustainable growth and overall development in the true sense possible in such a
circumstance? It does not seem possible that in such a situation the policies
based on national interests will reach the far-flung areas of the country
properly and with full effect.
We should,
however, not forget that a burning issue like corruption has never been taken
seriously by successive democratically-elected governments. Nor has any
political leader ever bothered to root out this evil, let alone make
corruption an issue, the government listens to them patiently and assured every
time that some action would be taken on the back burner. For instance, only 4
years ago, the then President of India Dr Kalam pointed out that the State
Governments were making false claims with regard to rural job generation.
Talking of the false claims, he also talked of e-Governance. In fact, the
reason behind their false claims is only corruption, nothing else. All the
important schemes and plans made for implementation lie confined to the files
only. Not then we have got no official agency to curb corruption. But they do
not act, because the people at the helm of high Govt. departments do not want
those agencies to act and deliver goods.
Everybody
feels that corruption is deeply rooted in the Indian governing system. The top
consultancy of Hong Kong ‘The Political and Economic Risk Consultancy Limited’
(PERC) found India the fourth most corrupt country among the 16 countries in
Asia Pacific Region. The three leading corrupt nations, according to it, are
Cambodia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. P.E.R.C has given India a rating of 8.67
on a 0 to 10 scale. The P.E.R.C report painted a faint picture of the second Dr.
Mannohan Singh-led government. The image of this government is tarnished mainly
by the telecom license scam (2G scam), the CWG scam, Adarsh Housing Scam, the DLF
scam, the Coal-gate scam, etc. Though these scams are still subjudice, the masses
want to know if the Indian PM has got the political will to fight a decisive
battle against corruption.
Corruption
is now recognized to be one of the world’s greatest challenges. It is a major
hindrance to sustainable development, with a disproportionate impact on poor
communities, and is corrosive to the very fabric of society. The impact on the
private sector is also considerable it impedes economic growth, distorts
competition, and represents serious legal and reputational risks. Corruption is
also very costly for businesses, with the extra financial burden estimated to add
10% or more to the costs of doing business in many parts of the world. The
World Bank has stated that ‘bribery has
become a $1 trillion industry’ in India.
On
24 June 2004, during the UN Global Compact Leaders Summit, it was announced that
the UN Global Compact henceforth includes a tenth principle against corruption.
This was adopted after extensive consultations and all participants yielded
overwhelming expressions of support, sending a strong worldwide signal that the
private sector shares responsibility for the challenges of eliminating
corruption. It also demonstrated a new willingness in the business community to
play its part in the fight against corruption. Transparency International (TI)
has been at the forefront of the anti-corruption movement since it was formed
in 1993. The development of the Business Principles for Countering Bribery
followed TI’s coalition approach and these have become central to TI’s
engagement with the private sector and its efforts to help develop and raise
corporate standards of probity.
Suggested Remedies for the Menace
After
Independence, there were many government activities, programs, and projects
involving massive investments. Consequently, there was a lack of adequate control
and accountability, which led to corruption. Most of the people who were
influential began thinking of their own vested interests. Another big reason
for corruption in India is the existence of too many controls, rules, the formulation of laws and regulations, restrictions, permits, and licenses. In this
process, those who are at the helm of the affairs make a lot of money. It is
not just India that is facing such type of notorious situation. Corruption
is a global phenomenon at the present time. Every country is facing this problem.
The best way to deal with this menace is to eradicate it from its roots. Rules and
regulations must be simplified so that they are easily explicable for the
common people. Only persons of high moral character with no cases of crime and
stainless personalities should be chosen for government jobs. People should
be educated and well aware of their civic rights and sole duties. They should
be bold enough to assert their rights. The best way to fight this problem is to
develop austere vigilance machinery with autonomous power within one’s own
country. This is not possible only in words, campaigns, gatherings, debates, etc.
but also possible when there is wholehearted support and cooperation of
every individual in a country.
The
economic strategy of the developed nations is based on their own interests. We
all know that billions are stashed away in foreign banks which can solve all
the problems of the country facing the poor masses languishing in shanties and
on the roads. A significant fact is that many of the ambitious plans are not
executed, because we have no funds. We are unable to provide even basic
amenities to our poor countrymen due to lack of funds. A very large section of
our population is living below the poverty (BPL) line even after 65 years of
Independence. It should be considered a national shame.
As
per a survey conducted in the Gulf countries, the rate of crime is very little
in comparison with that in other countries of the world. The reason is cited as
the severity of punishment for such crimes. Can our country not frame such laws
that can make a difference between the petty crimes and scams of such a big dimension?
If corrupt persons fiddling with public money are punished strictly according
to the degree of their crimes, nobody can dare indulge in corrupt practices.
Conclusion
Generations
have changed and so have the patterns of thinking of people. Our parents were
born during the time when most people worked hard just to earn their daily
bread and secured a normal lifestyle. In today’s world, on the one hand, the
masses have to live hand-to-mouth life. They have to make do with the little
income which hardly allows them to live a comfortable life due to ever-rising
inflation. On the other hand, the rich are growing richer and richer also people at
the helm of power lead a very luxurious life and their greed grows in
proportion with every day that follows.
It
is the need of the hour to call up a second renaissance against corruption. It
is high time all the strata of society, whether it be the government, the
civil society, educational institutions, individuals, business institutions, or
the citizens of this country, young masses jointly work towards eradicating
this evil from Indian society. If we really do so, the torch-bearers of the
national struggle for freedom will at least be happy that what they fought for
was worthwhile. This will not only make the nation happy but also will be a
right tribute to them. It is not just by paying homage to the Mahatma that we
can show our gratitude to the Father of the Nation. We should work day and night towards
making this country march towards becoming a Super Power. The dream of
Gandhi, to build up India, a Rama Rajya where peace, non-violence, and honesty
prevails, will become a reality. If corruption is uprooted from society we
can surely and certainly progress a lot.
