Speaking against corruption is crocodile tears

Who is interested in eradicating corruption?  But almost all are ready, anxious & eager  to talk against corruption.  Because talking against corruption will help them in hiding their corrupt deeds. We truly believe that more we talk against corruption more we will succeed in shielding our corrupt practices. The corruption is such a weak phenomenon which every political party reaps (rapes) & takes advantage in increasing its vote share. It is such a weak instrument that even the weakest soul in the world uses it. When I hear the leaders talking about corruption I start laughing. To me they are the best entertainers to the society. I respect the artists as they play the role while the politicians actually do. But both of them are good entertainers. The one charges the fee for entertaining while the other draws or snatches the exhorbitant entertainment fee from the government chaufers. Our legal system of the country indirectly helps in increasing the corruption by delaying the process of justice. You conduct rampant corruption but do not accept until proved. The principle of natural justice that a person is innocent until proved otherwise. The process of proving takes decades in the country. Thus it is not proved in one life ( 30-50 years) so one can be corrupt but claim himself as honest like any true honest person.

Indian politician is less of a leader than manipulator & is alyays so whether in his home or in society

Any Indian politician whether  in the group of saints or in the group of goons or among the common man, he will search job of manipulation for him every where. STRC MP conducts the training for team members of NGOs which are  run by politicians or likes  in majority of the cases. The trainees create job for themselves for manipulating other participants & keep them engaged in all kind of activities other than learning. The Indian politicians are expert in smelling the rat in every situation & good at creating chaos to prove their importance. Almost all politicians are a product of chaos take any country for that matter. For the birth of any politician first & foremost requirement is the chaos in the society/ community. Then politician emerges like a hero. If no chaos he will create that by manipulating the persons around by using all that which are called as leadership styles or leadership skills. Oh God save all the countries by these politicians.

Need to establish foundation to protect whistle blowers

It is not enough to only appreciate the whistle blowers to fight against corruption. A decade ago I was talking to a senior bureaucrat about honesty & integrity. He quipped that the society has  come up with the foundations/ trusts like World Wildlife Funds for the lions who became in minority, there will be a need to protect honest officers & whistle blowers as they are turning into scares population. The proportion of dishonest & corrupt officers  had already been very high since time immemorial. The honest persons always remains busy in his duties but the corrupt one has enough time to plot the games. Thus the honest is always kept on toes to defend himself resulting into encouragement & motivation to the other groups. The case of Sanjeev Chaturvedi & many others now indicate that a foundation to protect these honest & whistle blowers physically, financially & emotionally has become imperative in the interest of protecting & nurturing our cherished values.

Bureaucrats are the victims of inability to go deep into the problems of development

The other day I was brooding on the issue why we do not develop in proportion to our potential to grow when we had best brains of the country in bureaucracy. Then I realise that toppers of IITs or IIMs are not necessarily the most successful lot of the country.  Then a spark came to my mind that it is not their fault, it is the fault in the attitudes. How? In government services people work for getting more facilities, higher class of travelling modes, larger bungalows, crowed to greet them. These things are available to the bureaucrat in the beginning or can easily be obtained by way of favours. They never think of being appreciated for good values, success in achieving the results in implementing the development programmes. A civil servant was killed in Maharshtra. All colleagues joined together to raise the voice for safety of the civil servants but no voice came from any body to modify the system where it would not allow such miscreants to grow. They now want security for enjoying the facility rather than improved system of functioning. Our bureaucrats are the victims of their inability to go in deep to search the root causes. They wish for eternal facilities even after death. 

Why government change agents are what they are?

A government servant always worried about being questioned by any one or every one. They are in dilemma as general public considers them the king where as the politicians treat them the means to achieve their aspirations (plum position or plum money). In reality they are neither means nor the kings. They always want both aspects of the cake both eat it & keep it.  In the process they do not take decisions on issues which are not falling in these two boundaries & will always search for the pretexts not to do it. They are always scared for such decisions & treat these issues as threat to their job. Therefore leave them unattended until it deteriorates to the level of intolerance. Ultimately development issues are the casuality. Until decision making among bureaucrats comes out of this dilemma country can not develop. As development workers we face this day in day out & wait for Egypt like revolution.
