We Wrote a Letter
The President of India, Vice President of India, Prime Minister of India, Leader of the Opposition, Speaker of the Lok Sabha, Chief Justice of India & Chief Election Commissioner.
These were the persons who received a letter jointly signed by me and Oscar F on how to streamline our administrative systems and control corruption. As you know for quite some time,t he corruption in our country had been troubling me like a bedbug, there was another one here,mon ami called Oscar F, who decided that we would break our baltihood and shoot letters at them. We don't assure you that things will get rectified immediately and you know very well that it is impossible. Even then, we had to make a beginning some where and so we referred to ourseleves as friends at IBIBO.com troubled by the malaise of corruption. Here are the solutions. I am just giving you a short appraisal of what we sent while this is not the form or replica of the letter.
Firstly, we identified corruption at three levels
The lower strata of peons / clerks/go betweens
The second strata of higher class one officerss working for the Govt
The third strata of politicians themselves.
For the lower clerical levels, we suggested e-governance. If all the Govt offices are accessible through cyber space,the common man can get his requirements heard or atleast partially fulfilled through direct streams.
For the second strata, corruption is more a matter of life style. When you see guys who were less intelligent than you at school earning 1 lac per month in IT, while you slog like a bull the whole day for a few thousands, what will your psychology be like? Even today, any secondary source of income is taboo for govt officals. Yet we mentioned that some of them still do it in clandestine ways; some adjust with their lot ;while the rest of them "make" easy money, through corruption. So we suggested that their secondary source of income may be made legitimate. Only that if there is a call for duty, their allegience towards the Govt Duty be stipulated as being of foremost importance.
For the third strata of politicians themselves, we suggested that only educated people be elected to power(as they would have been exposed to school life, its discipline, and some kind of moralisitc background as opposed to the uneducated scum; people with a shady past of goondaism/ dacoitry/ smugglery/ history of prison life (not for any "cause" but due to reasons of criminal past),may be disqualified from contesting the elections.
Of course, we know very well that you would be pleased to welcome a clean society and if something favorable takes place you would be delighted. Let us wait and see!
