Dear Anna Hazare Ji here is what I think you should do next to take forward your struggle to rid
The Elections are coming the first one being in Uttar Pradesh next year Please give a call to the people of the Nation to boycott all the present political parties and make a call to the ordinary Honest Citizens of the Country to fight the Elections as Independent candidates and out of these please back the Candidates who meet the following standards and agree to the following conditions:-
1. The candidate seeking your Approval should be able to pass a Narco Analysis test as well as a Lie Detector test to ensure that he/she does not have any Black money and is not indulging in any Criminal Activities.
2. The Candidate Seeking your Approval will have to agree that he/she will if elected agree to undergo a Narco analysis and Lie Detector test every three months to ascertain if he/she has indulged in any Corrupt practices during that period.
3. Your Team should make New Laws and Amend the existing Laws in public interest and all the Candidates enjoying your support shall be obliged to pass these Laws in the Legislature/Parliament.
4. If any Candidate after being elected fails to abide by these terms then you should give a call to all the people of the Nation to boycott that candidate for ever and for a Social boycott of his entire family.
5. Your team should immediately decide about the amendments which need to be made to the Constitution in public interest so that the coming generations may be protected against corrupt Governance.
6. Please make Constitutional Amendment to provide for periodic preferably every three months Narco Analysis and Lie Detector tests of all the Bureaucrats and Ministers to find out if they have indulged in any Corruption during the period. If Science can be made to save human Lives then it can also be used to free the Country from Corruption since at time of the Making of the Constitution and the Indian Evidence Act, the Lie Detector Tests / Narco Analysis tests were not known , they have to be included now as the truth has to be found at all cost.
7. Your team should lay down the Qualifications for election as Legislators/Parliamentarians and lay down the age of retirement of politicians, in these qualifications. The whole concept behind the Retirement Age is that after a certain age, both physical and mental alertness decreases therefore if a Supreme Court Judge is retired at 65, an Army General at 60 and other Government servants also at about Sixty then how can the Politicians be allowed to continue after Sixty five ? are they a better specimen? Just imagine a scenario where there is a nuclear attack on India late at Night and some Old aged Prime Minister of say above Seventy is awakened, he will be incoherent for a long period of time and then may be he may be able to gather his wits around him, then may be he will not even be able to stand on his quivering arthritis stricken legs by then it may be too late. If medical certification of fitness is given as an excuse then the same should apply to the Army Officer/Judges and other Government officers also as they in any case have lesser responsibility/decision making power than the Ministers/P.M.
8. Make a new Law to subject all the present Ministers / Prime Ministers and Bureaucrats as well as those who have retired during the last ten years, to a Compulsory Lie Detector Test as well as a Narco Analysis test to find out about the black money stashed by them and then to recover the same and punish the culprits. In case of the Deceased out of the above category their heirs may also be made to undergo these tests.
9. Please note that All new Laws in India as well as the existing Laws are failing in India as the Implementing agencies are totally corrupt and these laws were made by the British and later on by Indian Politicians assuming that the Implementing agency will be totally Honest while the Opposite is true and to prevent the misuse there are no safeguards in the Laws. Had these Laws been made with the assumption that they will be implemented by corrupt officers then there would have been safeguards in all the individual laws themselves to prevent their misuse, the Provisions of IPC are inadequate as even the supervising officers all the way to the top are corrupt.All new Laws which are made and All existing Laws should be amended, and it should be ensured that they are made or amended keeping in mind that the Implementing Agency is likely to be totally Corrupt and to prevent the misuse or disuse of the Laws, provisions should be made in to all these Laws itself providing for stringent penalty for Omission as well as for misuse. For example if it is the duty of the Municipality to ensure that there are no stray Animals(cows, Dogs Pigs etc) on the Roads then if say some individual or some Organization finds say Fifty strays on the Road then the Officer responsible should be deemed to have indulged in Corruption (Omission has to be treated as Corruption otherwise no Law will ever succeed.) and then there should be provision for his imprisonment of at least three years as well as termination of service. Similarly if say ten Illegal Building or ten cases of Illegal User of Land is found in any given area/Zone in a city then the Engineer/Officer responsible for preventing this should be deemed to have indulged in Corruption and should be deemed to be in Collusion with the Law breakers and he should be imprisoned for minimum five years as well as terminated from service. Similarly if there are found to be say three encroachments on some village common land, unreported by the Patwari to his superiors, the Patwari should be deemed to have colluded with the land grabbers and should imprisoned for three years as well as thrown out of service. If however the Patwari reports the Illegality then after being reported by the Patwari, his superior officer fails to act within three days then he should be deemed to have colluded with the encroacher and should be imprisoned for seven years as well as terminated from service. The higher the post the greater the punishment.It is impossible to control or prevent Corruption just by The Prevention of Corruption Act as the Corrupt do not give advance telegrams to the Authorities declaring that they will be taking bribe on such and such date at such and such venue so please come and catch them red handed therefore Omission beyond a reasonable limit has to be treated as Corruption, the only thing to be kept in mind is that a reasonable exception has to be made such as if there are only say ten Stray Animals or only three Illegal Buildings/Land User in his Area then the Officer may be allowed to make amends by removing the Illegality but a warning should be issued to him and entered in his C.R.
10. In the next part I will give suggestions to prevent the Corruption at lower levels of the Government.
Thanks
