For last fortnight, the topic all over the news channels are that of corruption in Commonwealth Games of Delhi. I am surprised to know that it has become an issue at all. Corruption is part of our lives. Take any politician or Bureaucrat or any other government officials, (sincere ones please excuse) everybody becomes rich ones they get a job in government. If anybody (a sane with little commonsense person can know where the money came from) will amass wealth that can only be dreamed by a common man. With the pay packets they get, our Tatas, Birlas and Ambanis should learn from these geniuses, how to make such huge money with so much little income. Whether its a Village Panchayath Member, MLA, or MP, or Public Works Department Official or a Police inspector or a District collector, take his or her assets before he or she get her post or job. And find out what his/her assets after 5 years, one will be amazed to see the increase in their portfolio. It will be like they save the whole income and still it will be like many many more times that their income.
So when a Kalmadi or for that matter any other administrator is involved in curruption, it is not an issue at all. Only his mistake is he got caught.
If all the officials work without asking for bribe, the work that is costing Rs.100 can be done with just the half of that money.
Even a fool would have understood that when a refrigerator is available for Rs.6000/ why one should pay a rent of Rs.9000/ for 45 days. But not our officials. they would say they got it cheap at Rs.9000/. A government construction which cost Rs.2000/ per Sq.Ft, a common man gets a better construction for Rs.1000/. Still our Babus are saying that they got the cost very cheap.
Already they have spent more than Rs.35000 crores. I will be surprised if actual amount is more than Rs.20000 crores. But nobody can do anything. That is our fate. Unless we as common man start punishing these crooks, there is no future for us.
God save India!!!!!!!!!!
