Remove corruption
How to remove corruption from India
In 1991-92, I was the State Inquiry Officer of Assam, the head of the state's anti-corruption machinery. This senior post is usually held by Additional Chief Secretaries (I was given this role while still a relatively junior Secretary).
That experience was bolstered by the experience of being Additional Chief Electoral Officer of Assam which provided me detailed opportunities to look at the causes of corruption.
This, along with a huge amount of other experience, reading, and research, informs the detailed anti-corruption package I've outlined in my book, Breaking Free of Nehru.
The following ILLUSTRATIVE blog posts throw light on this matter:
- The Iceberg of Indian Corruption
- How can Indians possibly believe that MMS is upright?
- India sold out by CPI, Congress and our press to the USSR
- Vohra Committee Report, 1993
- Congress and BJP are equally corrupt
- Is this a joke? Rahul Gandhi honest?!
- Corruption in Indian politics
- Corruption in the Indian media
- Corruption in the Indian judiciary
- Not one reason to be honest
- Not one reason to be honest – Part 2
- Not one reason to be honest – Part 3
- Not one reason to be honest – Part 4
- Not one reason to be honest – Part 5
- Transparency International’s model does not attack the cause but the symptom\

I want to inform D.G. (S.A.) saheb’s latest gift to himself a multi crore guest house with just 4 rooms with 7 star facility at wheeler island. He is going to inaugurate it next week. Each room is modelled as per designs from Dubai luxury hotel and more than 100 labourers are working day and night under Shri.Col. Satpathy who is the permanent Construction c.c.e. for the past ten years at the same sensitive and maney making post at Baleswar and Kolkata for the past 10 years. He has made similar seven star guest house in Kolkata also for his VVIP bosses to please them. A luxury boat(yact) is also being purchased for the Kings and queens of D.R.D.O. in Wheeler Island. Please do something to stop this. Like the fake degree scam, another big chunna to govt is by employees building houses in same station with H.B.A. and still staying in lab quarters by renting their house. Such like artificial scarcity of quarters is created and the waiting list is too long. moreover, taking this artificial shortage into account new quarters are being built by the construction department at exorbitant costs (much higher rates than C.P.W.D.)our department has become more of a construction dept. than R&D. That too contracts are issued only to some big fish contractors close to these corrupt officers without any transparency. When the whole country is following e tendering, our dept. follows selective tendering. These construction engineers have even started taking projects from other than our dept. due to the huge kick backs provided in the over priced contracts. Please please do something.otherwise we are going to be doomed. PLEASE INFORM MEDIA ABOUT THIS LUXURY GUEST HOUSE AND BOAT IN A REMOTE ISLAND WHERE NO BODY ELSE GOES. Wellwisher.

Hetal I do not deal with individual cases of corruption since there are too many of them. You should report this up the line/ take evidence and provide to the press. But systemtic causes can and should be removed. That’s the focus of my work.
Niyat and Nity
(Intent and Policy)
With time it ages in a community like wine
Its quality like nature’s essence for good or bad
Earning respect for the truthful and honest person
Or money and power for the selfish and greedy!
Can we build that India for a sane entrepreneur?
To foray into “Make in India” a reality
With ingenuity and efficiency in system
Holding onto to no “hire and fire” regime by law?
Or for investor’s in real estate to earn rentals
So he can lose his property and rent in legal….
….Battle with the biased laws for ages with no solution;
Curse himself for the day he freely gave it away?
It is the willful poison of corruption we breed
With the insane laws poisoning our land and country;
Respect we expect from others will not be returned
Until we learn to respect others freedom of rights….
….Rights we hold dear to us are sequestered by the learned
And from their mental garbage they UNLOAD CORRUPTION!
I think some of the corruption can be removed by privatization and also by maintaining online database. India is a IT hub but all the public services still uses books and files. Maintaining central database for all the government offices can reduce the corruption and so on..
A small child (un-corrupted brain) when called for pampering also will not heed. But when shown a chocolate or candy (bribe/corruption) heeds/complies. So should the corruption attain this contentious mark. This inherent attitude of all the beings including humans’ being considered for eradication, shall amount to go against nature
You’ve got the point. The system should be incentive-compatible. India’s system is contrary to human incentives.
As noted in my recent book, “Innovation by India for India, the Need and the Challenge,” corruption is one of the main obstacles what is in the way of realizing its potential, one being innovation and business creation. The level of deep rooted corruption in India has made null any law or system to clean up until now. Only greater levels of transparency and honesty starting at the highest levels can change it.
Mr Ramaswami, EVERYTHING has a cause. And all causes ultimately relate to the incentives that operate on individuals. Pl. spend some time understanding why there is corruption. Pl. read and understand BFN: http://sanjeev.sabhlokcity.com/book1/BFN-fullbook.pdf
Dishonest politicians,Dishonest IAS and IPS,Principals, Headmasters, Judges,laws and rules making and non implementatiions,Faulty local self Govts,reservations, subsidies, Dishonest banking,babas and religions are all responsibles for increasing corrutions especially all types of courts in india. unchecked. Public of India is the most corrupt and cowardice. I do agree with that we should not fear of the corrupt people but should fear of those who are honest but are coward and actionless. Thank You.
