Dr APJ Abdul Kalam on corruption

Dr Kalam's visualisation of India in the year 2020 includes a nation where the govrnance is responsive, transparent and corruption free, where the rural and urban divide has reduced to a thin line and the agriculture, industry and service sector work together in symphony. Today's governance lacks responsiveness and transparency resulting in corruption becoming a big problem being faced by the country. Everybody will agree with Dr Kalam that righteousness is the solution to it.

CVC accused in a criminal case

A bench headed by Chief Justice SH Kapadia observed today that."without looking into the file, we are concerned that if a person is an accused in a criminal case how will he function as CVC." Bench made this observation after attorney general GE Vahanvati placed records of documents pertaining to Thomas appointment in a sealed cover. The name of Thomas figures in a charge sheet filed in a palmoleine export case.

The Congress Govt makes high claims on zero tolerance on corruption and yet it appoints, ignoring objections of Leader of Opposition, Thomas as CVC. Any person having any direct or indirect taint should not be appointed on constitutional posts. It sends wrong signals. The Govt has compromised the credibility of the institution of CVC. CBI has already lost the confidence of the people. How the people of India will be expected to believe that the Govt is sincere on the issue of corruption when it says something but does something opposite to that.

कौन करेगा भ्रष्टाचार का उन्मूलन?

भ्रष्टाचार पर 'शून्य सहनशीलता' के सिद्धांत की बात करना एक बात है, पर उस पर अमल करना एक दूसरी ही बात है. कांग्रेस ने चवन और कलमाड़ी से इस्तीफा लेकर यह साबित करने की कोशिश की है कि उस के वचन और कर्म में कोई अंतर नहीं है. लेकिन क्या इस्तीफा देने से भ्रष्टाचार सदाचार हो जाता है? दोनों भ्रष्टाचारी अभी भी कांग्रेस के सदस्य हैं. कलमाड़ी ने जिस पद से इस्तीफा दिया वहां तो उस ने कोई भ्रष्टाचार नहीं किया था. उस ने जहाँ भ्रष्टाचार किया वह अभी भी वहीँ और उसी पद पर सारे अधिकारों के साथ जमा हुआ है. यह कैसी शून्य सहनशीलता है? वचन और कर्म में साफ़ अंतर दिखाई दे रहा है.

ए राजा के बारे में कांग्रेस का कहना है कि उसे वर्खास्त न करना गठबंधन राजनीति का धर्म है. अगर राजा कांग्रेस का सदस्य होता तो अब तक वर्खास्त कर दिया गया होता. सरकार बचाने के लिए अगर भ्रष्टाचार को बर्दाश्त किया जाता है तब यह धर्म हुआ या अधर्म? क्या शून्य सहनशीलता में शर्तें होती हैं?

कांग्रेस ने अपने प्रधानमंत्री के साथ अन्याय किया है. सरकार बचाने के लिए मनमोहन जी की क्लीन छबि को दाग दार कर दिया है. भ्रष्टाचारियों का मुखिया सदाचारी नहीं कहा जा सकता. प्रधानमंत्री बनने से पहले मनमोहनजी के प्रति मेरे मन में जो आदर था वह अब नहीं रहा. अगर राष्ट्र को एक परिवार के रूप में देखा जाय और उस का मुखिया भ्रष्टाचारियों को संरक्षण दे तब उस परिवार को नष्ट होने से कोई नहीं बचा सकता.

आज राष्ट्र और समाज के हर अंग को भ्रष्टाचार ने जकड रखा है. कौन मुक्ति दिलाएगा इस जकड़न से? कौन करेगा भ्रष्टाचार का उन्मूलन? क्या हमें फिर एक अवतार की प्रतीक्षा करनी पड़ेगी?

Govt protects corruption to survive

Does Govt really want to eradicate corruption? Is Congress honest in saying that it has zero tolerance on corruption? Answer to these questions is a big NO.

Recent appointment of P J Thomas as CVC has once again confirmed that Congress has double standards on corruption. Congress talks of zero tolerance on corruption but in reality it protects corruption. Supreme Court is now examining whether new CVC can be called an outstanding civil servant with an impeccable track record.

Any Govt which compromises for its survival can not be called an honest Govt; and a Govt which is not honest can not be act against corruption. It could only find P J Thomas as new CVC, who as Telecom Sec had questioned the old CVC's attempt to look in to the alleged Rs. 140,000 crore 2 G spectrum scam. It is also alleged that P J Thomas had promoted corrupt officers to top posts in MTNL and BSNL.

How can India fight against corruption with congress in power and Thomas as CVC?

How to root out corruption

Arvind Kejriwal has wrtitten an article in Times of India, titled "How to root out corruption". He has rightly pointed out that the present anti-corruption laws and systems in our country suffer from internal contradictions. There is a plethora of anti-corruption agencies. In each of these agencies, the government has deliberately left some critical loophole so as to make it ineffective.

He suggests that all these anti-corruption agencies should be merged into one single agency, the Lokpal. Give it jurisdiction over both bureaucrats and politicians. Give it comprehensive powers to investigate and prosecute the guilty without needing any permission.
