Today’s News headline:
Reminds us again about the most corrupt Country we live in. You see Rahul Gandhi, Manmohan, Priyanka and Sonia waving with radiant smiles on their faces after the Recent Victory. You hear talk of the power given to the youth. You see faces of Jatin Prasad, Jyotiraditya, Priya Dutt then Sharad Pawar’s daughter, Kumari Selja, Naveen Jindal, Sachin pilot , then Karuna Nidhis clan then a few Politicians Concubines etc etc (more of the last lot will come after the Women reservation bill )actually all of them are Billionaires. So are the seniors so effectively you have a Parliament & Ministry populated by at least 95 % Billionaires. Those who have declared five Crores are at least worth a hundred times more every body knows that. Have you noticed any decline in the level of Corruption in the Country? Actually no. In fact it used to be in lakhs previously, now it is in hundreds of crores and mark my word no politician wants to change that.
If things are to change then this younger generation must come clean, say alright our fathers made billions and we are sorry and we are giving back this ill-gotten wealth, back to the Country and keeping say 10 % for ourselves and now we will work to remove Corruption from the Country. No body , none of the so acclaimed younger lot has done that till now.
I recollect in the early eighties, a Rickshaw driving license was made by the Mathura Municipality, in Rajiv Gandhi;s name, complete with his Photo and fathers name etc. Indira was the P.M. Afterwards many heads rolled in the Municipality.
Kerosene shortage was there even then and people had to give an application to the District Supply Officer if they needed Kerosene for some function. There was brisk business of Kerosene Consumer permits in Agra and the general trend was you write the application, asking for two cans (or pipa as it is called in U.P.15 liters each) give some reason, for the need ,give twenty to thirty Rupees per can to the Tout, who used to enclose one ten Rs note with the Application for the Inspector, who used to mechanically just cut the figure “two cans” and write “allowed one can” and thereafter the permit was obtained after paying the other staff. So one person wrote in his application like this “Sir due to too much corruption in the DSO office, I need two cans of Kerosene to set fire to the DSO office.” The inspector mechanically wrote “allowed one Can” and the permit was issued. Next day it was in the headlines “ DSO issues permit to burn his office”. So corrupt is the System.
No body has forgotten how warrants were issued by a Gujrat Court in name of President of India & others.
I recollect that about twenty years back when one had to settle some traffic Challan in the Court, one had to pay about twenty to thirty Rupees to the dealing clerk and he used to pin up one Rs ten or twenty Rs note with each application and go before the Magistrate, Now it is a hundred Rupees note. At that time the Magistrate used to make about Rs two thousand daily without any effort, now it is about ten thousand daily and the process is fully mechanical, you don’t even have to go before the Magistrate.
We live in shameless spineless country.
